Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs

Anyone excited about this sequel?

The game had me at:

"We have this industrial tycoon, who works with livestock. He disappears off to Mexico, with his familly in tow, on this mysterious treasure hunt adventure thing. Something goes horribly wrong in Mexico, we don’t know what that is, but he becomes gravely ill, falls into a coma-fever, and the game starts with him waking up, not knowing how much time has passed, having had these terrifying dreams of this dark machine. As he wakes up, he hears something start up far below him. Your journey is to discover what’s happened to him in that missing time, where he is, how much time has passed, and is this machine real, or is it fantasy. That’s where you jump in."

In case you didn't know, the very talented peoples who brought us the experimental story-telling game Dear Esther, are pouring their creative juices all over this project, collectively. In collaboration with Frictional Games, together.

To those who might be suffering from UMCS, I present here all the concept art I've been able to find on the internets. Youse welcome:

Thanks Juice, concept art looks great. Really lookin' forward to this game. *waits to preorder*

Improved visuals will make the game a disturbing, unsettling and flat-out horrifying experience.

Dan Pinchbeck, creative director at thechineseroom (Dear Esther developers) said: "With this new game, we want to create a world that is so rich and dramatic and beautiful that the player is constantly torn between wanting to go around the corner to see what's there and not wanting to go around the corner because they're frightened of what's there."

Having been entrusted by Frictional Games to do the next Amnesia game, he stated: "There’s real sacred ground here, we have to look after this game. There’s no way I’m ever going to be able to live with myself if we fuck this up."

Regarding the release date: "The target is Halloween, we’d really like to release it on Halloween at midnight."

On a side note, here's something else they are working on:

I'll have to stock up on heart meds to be sure but I think I may be brave enough to have a go at this :D

God dammit :P the first game traumatized me >_< ... ... ... but I'm gonna get this anyway.

I am so going to get this.

The first one really scared the crap out of me(and I don't really get scared with games and movies :O)

Can't wait, Frictional are the last developer making actual survival horror games, easily my favorite genre.

Agreed.

Frictional should collaborate with Warren Spector and Ken Levine to make System Shock 3, using CryENGINE 3.
