WHY AM I NOT ALLOWED TO BURN ANYTHING ON THE TORCHFIRE, LIKE A BOOK AND THROW IT AWAY AS ANOTHER LIGHTSOURCE. WHY I AM NOT ALLOWED TO BURN A PIECE OF WOOD AND TAKE IT WITH ME AS A TORCH?

something like that? would have been so cool - the total immersion is already there with those gameplay elements, the dark story, presentation, great controls and LOGICAL physic based puzzles... WHY DOESN'T FIRE BURN STUFF?! :confused:

patch? ;)

beside that i LOVE IT.

hint: have a look at the pictures. they are not all the same! :eek: :o :cool:

really cool details! after seeing the first of the old framed pictures behind some red curtains, i just sayed to my girlfriend "i would have use small hidden creepy "changes" in these pictures - subtle stuff, you'll just find when you really look at it.." "yeah, would have been cool..."

and then... baam! there it was. :)

awesome details! played 2 hours now and really love the story, so lovecraftian dark, creepy and moody. great experience so far - the sounds are outstanding!

I wouldn't expect something like this to get patched in.
Its a lot more complex to make things burnable than could easily be patched (Like everything will need additional textures for unburnt, burning, and burnt).

Besides, part of the point is your managing of what little light sources you have. So you don't run out of oil in your lamp or Tinder.

Also, The last thing you want is light sources everywhere when your trying to hide from some scary monster :v

Similarly you could ask, why can I not take the burning torches off the wall and carry them around. :v

i just thought that it's a huge immersion brake, beside the rest of your capabilitys (like breaking glass, destroying stuff, lighten candles and so on). but yeah, you're probably right about destroying gamefeatures again while beeing ingame.

what is that 3rd "something with story" button under "new game" and "continue"... it just opens a blank window, nothing to start after pushing that button. will or does the game support "custom storys" or mods? or is it for future dlc's (nowadays not unlikely, unfortunately)

The custom stories button is for the editor which will be released for free soon. The developers said so yesterday. He said they would probably be too busy supporting the game around the release date (today).

Its stupid to not be able to carry the torches you light with tinder...

The very FIRST thing I tried to do was grab a candle or torch I lit when I accidentally ran out of oil -_-

It would be cool if you could do that but the game would need to be redesigned around it. Maybe they can put it in Amnesia II (assuming this game stays on the Steam Top 10).
