And yet here I am, capable of running (albeit barely) The Witcher 2 on my laptop. It also only cost me about 650 dollars.The Wykydtron said:
If you look, you can find a decent hybrid graphics card laptop for about the same as what I paid.

that'll do you fine and it's only 500 dollars right now. Processor could certainly be better, but most reqs the minimum is a dual core processor, a lower speed quad core should be fine.
Eh... Gotta say, not entirely sure it'll be as good as the first. I'm a little doubtful of TheChineseRoom; and that trailer just didn't do it for me like Amnesia:TDD's did, and that one was just striaght gameplay footage. When I saw that trailer, I knew that game would be fucking scary. This one, not so much.
Let's see...
No weapons
No chest high walls
No multiplayer
No co-op
No girlfriend to rescue
No wise cracking sidekick
The list of things this doesn't have just goes on.
How do you expect to ruin a sequel when you are doing everything right?! It's like your trying earn my money by doing a good job or something!

You're telling people to fuck off because you didn't like the trailer they provided to you? Well, that's a bit overzealous.Carnagath said:
So... it's Amnesia... with new and different maps... and ManBearPig monsters... I'm sold. Please Frictional, take all of it.
Weirdest game subtitle in relation to game content ever.
I liked Amnesia even though it was short. I'll get this.

My concern is that TheChineseRoom tends to make games whose stories make fuck-all sense. That's fine if you're into that sort of thing, and I can handle some ambiguity, but when the story can be interpreted in an infinite number of ways, it might as well not be there.
Of course, the biggest stumbling block is that I have no computer with which to run this game.

Did you read the video description? They explain what's going on. Apparently they had decided to make a little presentation for this game should the Humble Indie Bundle 5 sell well enough, but it blew way above the bar they'd set before they could get a proper presentation together. So this is just a glimpse at some environments, not exactly a proper trailer.Zakarath said:
You know, internet tuff guys being all "DIS IS NOT SCARY. I AINT AFRAID OF NOTHING. HORROR GAMES DON'T EXIST BECUZ I AINT AFRAID O NOTHIN" and all that........SayHelloToMrBullet said:
The Chinese Room is amazing for this. Amnesia doesn't have much gameplay to begin with first of all, but that's besides the point. What makes horror scary? Atmosphere, ambiance, setting, etc......and what does The Chinese Room do really good as shown by Dear Esther? Its the perfect crew for it in my opinion. Story telling should even be better than the first hopefully.
Its an indie dev, showing a teaser. Hell, most teasers by triple A games are just logos or pre-rendered shit that doesn't relate to the game, so I would say this is pretty good for a teaser.
Also. Pig demons. Mutherf-ing pig demons.
And the "I have too much money" award goes to...WouldYouKindly said:
OT: I'm hoping this will live up to expectations, but I find the concept of a humanoid pig enemy ridiculous - perhaps I played too much Duke Nukem.
i maybe wait until its on special. amnesia dint scare me one bit but it was an ok game. so i highly doubt this one will scare me either.
You realize it's practically impossible to get a real gaming laptop for under 1000 dollars. For what I paid, I got a very capable system, albeit not half as capable as a real gaming laptop.Iron Criterion said:
Also I included the tax. It was originally only about 600, which is not much for a dual core, 4GB ram, 512MB graphics card laptop from two years ago. Also, that's back when I had money. Spend it when you got it, you know.
