Amnesia follow-up game, Something is emerging...

When I was around eight or nine, my brother and I saw a wild pig nearly kill the neighbors dogs. They're absolutely terrifying.

Pigs are simultaneously adorable and the most unsettling uncanny-valley of all animals I can think of, there's always been a creepiness to them and they work beautifully in horror.

Also, old country singers:

I am super excited for that. I really enjoyed Amnesia and while the monster design was limited (with regards to different types, but I keep in mind this was a smaller scale indie game), I found them perfectly disturbing especially considering the possible alchemical nature of their creation. They very much felt like something that *was* human and was still technically alive to some twisted degree.

And Alexander was so interesting and complicated; not evil, simply driven and indifferent. His indifference makes sense with regards to his alien nature. I am reminded quite a bit of the angel in "The Mysterious Stranger" by Mark Twain, by far my favorite story of his.
