Even better than I remember!
The one game that I get a similar feel from is actually Realms of the Haunting. Undying is a lot faster but let's see: a spooky mansion you keep coming back to, visits to other dimensions, many kinds of puzzle solving and both occultism and traditional weapons. Actually there's dual-wielding of weapons/powers here quite a few years before the Bioshocks popularized it. And very creepy atmosphere – not much music but with the unique setting of Irland you'll hear the wind and the ocean all around. Inside you may hear thunder and rain but mostly silence except your footsteps and strange noises. They really nailed the texturing and lighting, helping this game still look really moody. The Renewal mod+DirectX 11 shader+pixel-depth textures let's you get that little extra out of it. Only slight negatives I have is that bosses can be annoying and that there are a few, 3 or so, occasions where it's easy to miss how to progress but I have to say, considering how much this game switches up how you move forward, using spells or equipment, it's almost always telegraphed really well. While I had fond memories from back in the day, and kept the CD although I never got around to replay it, I didn't expect to be this impressed. Undying needs to be mentioned a lot more often among all the timeless FPS's of the early 2000.
