 REVIEW: 2007-06-04

The game tells a good story through the adventures of 12 different characters, but the final cut scenes left me wanting more. I wanted a broader, more comprehensive story explanation for the Ancients, but I felt the game short-changed me there.

As for the big selling points, the fear and the game messing with the player, it seemed to boil down to tilting the camera toward the end and was not particularly scary. I felt that the same thing happened to The Suffering, wherein the fear almost completely evaporated, leaving a run-and-gun type of game. This is not to say that Eternal Darkness is not good, it is good, only that some of the main aspects that made it a great game seemed to be lost in the latter sections.
