The Original Amnesia was an absolute masterclass in horror. This sequel fails on all levels. Gameplay is gets interrupted by unskippable flashbacks. None of the other characters matter and the game cheaply tries to make you care for them. The story is nonsense, ui is bad, "fear flashes" are stupid, this game is twitch bait. It's not for you to play, it's for you to watch your favorite streamer react to.
I was going to write something long but trying to put it all into words has just depressed me, I may come back to this after I've had more time to collect my thoughts on this but to make this as short as possible the PC port kinda stinks, it rips RE4's aesthetic without even the littlest of understanding of how good that game was and why, the story is a poorly contrived mess, the enemy AI is laughable, next to no…
