Absolutly awful. Never have a I played a platformer with such asinine control and ungodly poor design. Stay far away

I preordered this game, I was so hyped. Amnesia the Dark Decent was fantastic, I was ready for a sequel. However, this one didn't meet expectations.

PROS

• Graphics are pretty solid and historically accurate
  
• The voice acting was good
  
• Had that 'Amnesia Feel'

CONS

• Not scary enough. The original had you sweating. It made you want to quit every second but you had to keep going. This one didn't feel this way. The enemies here, when they spot you, just kinda run up and hit you. In the original getting killed gave you the chills.
  
• No inventory. The inventory in Amnesia 1 was a little flawed, but having none whatsoever is a mistake. This means you don't acquire any items over the course of your entire adventure.
  
• NO SANITY???? Like why? Sanity meter was one of the most popular and iconic features of Amnesia 1, and without it you can just camp in the dark forever.
  
• The lantern lasts forever. Lame
  
• Lack of interactivity with the environment. In Amnesia 1, most doors could be opened and explored to find lore or items, but here pretty much everything is glued to the map. Similarly, finding secret passages isn't fun anymore because you can just mouse over everything until your hand lights up
  
• Everything is on one straight path. Too much direction

Probably the best noob friendly magic game yet! The computer opponents are much smarter now, and in addition there is an updated story mode with intresting artwork and battles never before told that fit correctly with the magic timeline. That said I'd still say paper magic is king, but this is a good leap toward a good digital magic era.

10/10 best decision making

Its a great start, but it definatly needs work.
First of all, the premise of the game is 'to be really realistic', so I won't judge them if it is a bit difficult. But the combat of the game is some of the most basic and dull of any game I've seen before. Basically you run up to a zombie, and try and whack it with whatever you're holding. Its impossible to avoid it clawing you, and after fighting 3 or 4 zombies you get wounded, and, die. There's guns, but ammo is so limited that the most I've ever had is 2 clips. So if you're one of those guys who's all about realism, then this would be for you, but the fighting in this game is to basic to apeal to me.

This game is perfect example of super-high replay value.... You can't put it down, even after the 999,999,999,999,999,999th time, and it never gets old. Thumbs up by me!

Free to play. Not pay to win.
