Amnesia total conversion mod about the power of religious fanatism.
super new monster in underground passage, why 9/10 lantern light weak and short mod
great
Truly demented
I like it.. Especially the texts :) this is exactly the type of story and texts I like.
You made it
First, the concept could have worked easily, constantly i was thinking during my playtime i will give a higher score than this. The main problem with this mod is that the gameplay is lackluster (pretty generic puzzles and monster encounters), and the text and voice acting for the story is very poorly written. It was cringy to read and hear through them sometimes, especially during long dialogues, and there were a few. The voice acting of Eveline was the only one i could tolerate. You tried to sound cruel and disturbing but it felt forced and out of place. Sometimes even like a sick teen fantasy. On the other hand, the level design and the atmosphere was neat, i liked the full conversion format, and the fact that you didn't use the original monsters (although the outside areas look weird to say the least). Areas were kinda unusual even creepy sometimes. All in all it wasn't too interesting or entertaining, it falls more into the average category. Glad you made it though, and i wish you good luck for your next project, if you have any plans. But i hope you do, this one had some interesting design choices, just not all those choices were good decisions!
This mod had a lot of potential but god... How cringe inducing and disgusting can the mod get?
If it wasn't for outside areas with broken lighting and tons of places to glitch through I could easily give this a high rating. Areas are well designed for the most time, vith some variety as well but outside really hurts eyes, 4/10
Except for outside once again, I have nothing to pick on in terms of lighting, 6/10
My favorite randomly hidden items to open a door, nice. I don't really have much to say about puzzles, nothing is going on here, 2/10
The atmosphere was decent, we have a slow build-up, story that made me interested... at least at the beginning, and rather rare encounters. It's ruined after a while thanks to the story, 7/10
It was quite scary, gotta admit. There was an attempt to try some ambitious scaring techniques but... talking to monsters? 4/10
Yeah, story AKA how to be immature about mature subjects. Let alone one person voice acting every character, the notes made me wanna quit several times. They look like they were written by some teenage incel describing his fantasy, I don't want to go in-depth (get it?) about that. Other than that the basic story with no twists and plain characters, everybody is either pure good or pure evil, 1/10
Puzzles are boring so the gameplay also isn't extremely entertaining. At least exploring delivers some "fun", 3/10
At the end I have to mention some "outside" issues. 2gb mod even though it could be less than quarter of that. You DON'T include vanilla files in your mod, neither do custom files that are never used in the mod. You decided to "ignore" others' tips about that subject so now deal with it. Also grammar. I don't wanna assume but it seems there's one nation that really hates english grammar. This mod could be good if it was free of elementary mistakes that even novice creators don't make
Positives:
- Working autosaves
- Occasionally creepy
- Good grammar for the most part, with only a few mistakes here and there
Negatives:
- Once again, a large amount of vanilla assets included, making the download file way larger than it needs to be
- The "mature" subjects are approached without any maturity at all
- Basic story that never developes in to anything unique
- Weird level design, and not in a good way
- Poor balance between story and actual gameplay (I spent half the playthrough reading notes)
- Every character is voiced by the same person
- Lack of good suspense. Always intense music even when nothing is happening
It started off alright. I went in to this abandoned "factory" and I thought it was genuinely creepy and interesting. Then the notes arrived.
You guys never seem to go beyond a basic plot device. You think of something basic, like "antagonist is a cult leader... that's it".
The story never evolves beyond this basic premise. The antagonist is insane, because he's insane. It's a religious cult that want's to cleanse the world of the human race because wars are bad or what ever. Character development here is non-existent. Each character, apart from the antagonist, has one note dedicated to them. You have three or four interactions with Evelin, most of them just directions from her, and this is apparently enough for them to care deeply for each other and fall in love.
That's not enough for me to care about these characters.
Felix, the antagonist, is the only character with some kind of story ark. Unfortunately, most of his notes boils down to "**** humanity. I will rape and murder them because they deserve it" and very detailed descriptions of how much he loves to rape victims, written by someone I believe to be young and recently discovered pornography.
On top of the notes being cringe inducing, the same person voiced every character. I can excuse amateur voice acting for mods. I don't expect professional voice acting in free mods. However, someone that can't voice act very well that tries to voice a character of the opposite gender or age is a different level of cringe entirely.
In my mods I made back in the days, sure the voice acting is mediocre as well for the most part, but at least I asked females to voice act females, and people that knows how to make childlike voices to voice child characters. Unless you know what you're doing, trying to voice a child, the opposite gender or a character very different from what you typically sound like is rarely going to sound well, and certain characters in this mod were cringe to listen to.
The second biggest elephant in the room for me is the weird level design.
I went in to a prison section only to find a single note and nothing else. It turned out I didn't have to go there at all. So, why did you keep that part locked? I went in there after unlocking the door, expecting to find a puzzle related item, but I found nothing. Why would you lock off an entire, relatively large section of the map if there's nothing of importance in there? I went around here for quite a long time, expecting to find something.
The lightning outside. Every outside map have either pitch black areas, or very bright areas. I suppose you meant to light the map using the moon light, however, the moon, while emanating a bit of light, is nowhere near strong enough to affect the lightning on such a large scale.
You also overuse snow particles, which made it lag when I looked up, which I kinda had to do while getting up in the tower.
At the last forest map right outside Felix's hideout, you made the skybox pitch black, but the fog white. It looks very odd. It should either be all dark, or you need to do a middle ground. Make the skybox dark grey and the fog the same grey color, for example.
Conclusion:
The story is written by someone that tries to bring up a mature subject, but really don't know how to. Writing "I touched my balls. Omg her tits are amazing, I'm gonna rape her so much mmm tits tits" is extremely cringe. I couldn't take this story seriously. Everything else is basic at best.
Oh, and again, why do you include so many unnecessary files? You're really not doing yourself a favor by doing this. I know people that won't download really large mods to begin with.
It also:
1: Takes longer for us to download it
2: Takes up more space on our computers
I have a mod at least twice as long as this and with more voice acting and more custom material. It takes up 707 MB on my hard drive.
Your mod takes up 1.38 GB. If you only included necessary files, it would take up at least half of that.
3/10 - Bad
