I'm one of those weird people that actually really enjoyed a new nightmare and the 2008 travesty.

Oh man the 2008 game, Alone in the Dark Inferno, is so cute :3 It's an actual disaster, made of jank with laughable writing, but it's so excited about its own cool technology and weird ideas that I find it impossible to hate. Swinging around physics objects that are on fire, the dynamic wounds on your goofy character, the lighting shenanigans, the crafting puzzle shit, it's so overstuffed.

This new thing might be an okay Resi 2 Remake clone, but beware the mark of Atari SA wtf

The OG was a ton of fun. It's basically Resident Evil with less combat and more puzzles. And more "Oops you are fucked now" moments.

I liked the first game being sort of a collection of scenarios you had to figure out how to solve in a time limit. Don't think i played 2 or 3 tho

They upped the combat. There's like guys with Tommy guns in 2 and cowboys in 3. The original was the best for lovecraft themes and that slower pace.
