Not bad but not really good either

I know that this one was developed by the chinese room and fictional games, so if i find this diferent than the other fictional games, that is some explanation to that. The gameplay is the usual of fictional games but the interaction is less than usual in this kind of games, you can only interact with the puzzle parts and with drawers to search for documents and the audiologs i understand that this matter could infuriate someone. The plot is fine, that is probably the thing i liked the most of this game albeit you are forced to act in only one way without much to say in the inteaction with the story. The athmosphere is also fine but the interaction with enemies is minimal and only by the end of the stoy you do something with the antagonists. I thing the main problem is that is feels mediocre in comparation with the other ones, feels overall less than before, but it isn't a bad game. It happens that shares name with better ones.

It's a Spooky Walking Simulator

You walk around, listen to a monologue, and look at spooky scenery and sometimes run from monsters that aren't really that much of a threat. It's less like Amnesia: the Dark Descent, which played like a real game, and more like Dear Esther but with even more ennui and misanthropy. I think how you feel about the game depends on how you feel about that description. I don't mind evocative walking simulators, so I enjoyed it alright. But if you don't, I wouldn't recommend it.

Better than what people might say.

I'm someone who unironically loves walking simulator type games and well, if anything, A Machine for Pigs had me on edge and it had me feeling anxious. And that's how you know it was doing its job as a horror game. The atmosphere generally was very good, the soundtrack was pretty fitting and the story was SUPER dark. (Heck, the ending even made me a little emotional) Yeah, the gameplay might not be as involved as it was in The Dark Descent, but I'd rather a game tell a good story than force annoying gimmicky gameplay on players. Before playing A Machine for Pigs, I played SOMA and that game proved this same thing. People tend to agree that playing that game is a much better experience on the "Safe" difficulty.

Flawed as a game; worth the playthrough

Do not expect it to be a good sequel to "Amnesia: The Dark Descent", because it is not a good Amnesia game. Expect it to be a walking-simulator instead, expect, also, the following weakpoints: Uninspired level design, unfun and unchallenging puzzles, unremarkable enemy encounters, glorified hallway of a map... That being said, to me, the positives outshine the negatives: Delightfully creepy (even moving) story, gorgeous original music composed by Jessica Curry, outstanding perfomance from the voice actors (Toby Longworth, Mark Roper and Zak Craig), excellent writing, superb ambience and great concept art. Really powerful delivery from Mark Roper and Jessica Curry in the ending, I get goosebumps everytime. I think it is, at least, enjoyable at its worst and sublime at its best. If you know what to expect of it, that is.

Thank you for OpenSourcing the game

What can I say. It's definitely not the same as with 1st game. This one takes dark turn and dabbles more into gore section rather than mysterious and melancholic horror. It may be something that might really scare someone who isn't expecting it but i guess that is what this game was trying to achieve. Performance is really good on Linux same as with the 1st game and despite unexpected difference it's still worth of giving score 10/10.
