게임 개발자들과의 독점 인터뷰. Gamer.ru를 위해 특별히 마련했습니다.

да,моя ошибка)только сейчас заметил...

Получил снежком по лицу xD

Пророчество сбылось ;)

В игре страшно до 1 монстра, сюжет ужасный, геймплей ужасный, атмосфера надоедает.

Отличное интервью.
Игра реально жуткая и интересная, но после тюрьмы... Мне даже страшно в нее заходить =(. Я не думал что ТАК проберет, особенно влияет твоя беспомощность. Когда бежишь, не знаешь куда, а за тобой несется монстр и у тебя совсем мало хп... Хочется выключить комп и больше НИКОГДА в нее не заходить D:

Вышла почти полгода назад уже)

Одна из лучших игр 2010 года.

посмотрим когда выйдет

А игра не очень.

интересно,однозначно плюс)

Молодец! Огромное спасибо за интервью! Приятно было почитать:)

бриллиант и орден - в такой последовательности :)

Пусть это сожжение принесет тебе орден и бриллиант =)

http://amnesiagame.net/ - сорри за спам! Вобщем вот так!

Ну на форуме я тоже спрашивал но перевод гугла унылый! Так же статью переводил http://lgn.linux-hardcore.com/interview-with-frictional-games-amnesia очень сложно! Спасибо за ответы! Жду выход игры! Вот сайт сделал http://amnesiagame.ucoz.ru/ ссылку можешь удалить! Ещё раз спасибо за перевод! Интересно!

Гуглом пришлось пользоваться, я ж не англичанин чтобы влёт переводить :)
На все вопросы, которые я им отправил, они ответили.

Ну и последний вопрос!(Не хочу надоедать) Каким ты переводчиком пользуешся??????Шучу! Ты отправил 15 вопросов и получил 15 ответов?

Понравился. Почему бы и не добавить ? :)

Так там были и другие изображения и скрины! Почему ты добавил именно этот арт!??? /club11342921 - вот група в контакте! Может кому пригодится!

Эксклюзивное интервью - эксклюзивные изображения :D
Разрабы любезно предоставили мне доступ к своему фтп серверу, где я её и нашёл =)

Тут предоставлен арт замка которого нету на официальных страницах разработчиков! Где вы взяли изображение под 3им вопросом????
За статью зачёт!

Cам конечно. Я с ними по почте связывался.

Просто отлично!

ты сам интервью брал?

Отличное интервью, буду ждать игру и новые материалы по ней :)
Редактор уровней для хоррор игры? Интересно, очень интересно что из этого получится, и будут ли хорошие модификации. Все-таки нужно чувство того, что создает страх, чтобы создать по настоящему напряженный и страшный уровень, поэтому не думаю что стоит рассчитывать на большое количество именно хороших уровней и модов ))

Спасибо за отзывы )

Зачетное интервью...Респект...

Кому интересно - оригинал интервью на английском.Т.к отвечали они естественно не на русском =)
1)Hello. Introduce yourself please.
Hi, I'm Jens Nilsson, co-founder, sound and level creator at Frictional Games.
2)What prompted you to create your new game Amnesia: The Dark Descent? Who had the idea to create a game ?
We needed to have something to do when Penumbra was done ;) When we were almost done with Penumbra: Black Plague we started to plan for another game. We wanted to have the first basic concept done in early 2008 so that we could apply for support from the Nordic Game Program, which we also got. We then spent the rest of 2008 to do many prototypes, re-working our initial idea and for each prototype refining it and sometimes even taking things in new directions.
3)How do we know penumbra rather successful in financial terms. How much and how influenced the success of penumbra series to create new games?
Penumbra has not been that successful financially, it has been very successful however in getting attention and putting Frictional Games on the gaming map. We feel there is a lot more to be done within the horror genre, so Amnesia is obviously very much influenced by Penumbra but is also trying very hard to continue the development of the genre. Amnesia is an entirely new game, with new technology and a new story, so the Penumbra influences are only for the initial ideas and one should expect quite a bit of new things in Amnesia.
4) Game is executed in interesting enough surroundings. Whether there will be in game various locations except an old estate? For example vaults and so forth.
The player is exploring a castle that has been around for hundreds of years, so it is a patch work of different styles and constructions influenced by the different centuries during its construction. There are old grand castle halls, more modern mansion buildings, with dungeons and other much more dark and horrific environments to explore. Our goal is to create an environment that feels interesting and worthwhile to explore. Also, the surroundings are not just for show, they will be deeply connected with the games story.
5) Whether will be in game elements of various genres like action elements in Penumbra Overture or we are expected by a standard quest (aka Requiem)?
If you want to compare Amnesia to the Penumbra series, Penumbra: Black Plague is the game that is closest. There is no combat in Amnesia, but there are moments of action as you escape the horrors that chases you. Requiem was a puzzle expansion for Black Plague so the idea was to have a lot of puzzle. This is not the case for Amnesia. The idea with Amnesia is much more about exploration and experiencing an unnerving environment and events.
6) What wind of the protagonist has brought in this terrible estate? Whether there is at the hero a definite purpose?
The protagonist wakes up, having amnesia. The game will be about exploring why he is where he is and what has happened, why he can't remember and so on. The game circles around the topics such as what horrible actions man is capable of, that there is no clear good or evil, that everything is a shade of decisions and effects.
7) What opponents will be at the protagonist and whether there will be unexpectedness in this aspect?
We do not want to talk too much about what sort of creatures are lurking in the game. But the castle has had its inhabitants for quite some time, many very dangerous so the player has to be careful and avoid them as much as possible. His sanity is already under a lot of stress and encountering these opponents really will not do him any good.
8) Whether It is possible to die in game?
Yes, it is very possible to die in the game. However, we work really hard to create a game where you are in constant danger but not so likely to die as it really hurts a horror game if you have to replay parts of it and relive the same horror moments twice. A scary scene is not nearly as frightening the second time. We have also worked a lot on the save system, so the game saves a lot and enables you to quit the game any time you like, being able to continue where you ended the next time you start the game.
9) Tell more in detail about a engine used in game. Whether the quite good computer Is required for game or there will be enough car of three-year prescription?
You will need a slightly better computer than what you needed to play Penumbra. The improvements are numerous, including optimizations so while the engine is capable of much better looking environments it will not be that much more demanding of the hardware. The engine also has a new version of the physics engine, making the physics more stable and reliable. I have an old 2.2 Ghz Athlon with a GeForce 6800gt graphics card and this computer has no problem at all to play the game at the intended settings.
In addition to the new engine, we also have a suit of tools that we use to develop the game. These tools include a Level editor that will also be released with the game so that users can create their own levels, we have spent a great deal of time to make these tools as easy as possible to use. But of course to create something really interesting you have to spend quite some time, it is not possible to spend an hour and thinking that is enough for a great user made level.
10)Scare the modern player is difficult. Suddenly, bounding out of the darkness long stuffed all tired. What to expect from Amnesia: The Dark Descent?
We are trying to create a very dense atmosphere, with unsettling events and horrors to play through. We do not believe much in having cheap jump scares, overall we work a lot with the ambient settings and sound to create a dreading atmosphere. Our goal is to have the player constantly worrying about what might be lurking behind the next corner.
11) How much game is linear? Whether there will be in game some endings?
The game is quite linear in its overall design, we are very keen on making a good gaming experience rather than trying to make several semi-good experiences. But the player is never forced to play the game in one set order, there is always the option to explore different parts of the castle and some events and some parts play out differently depending on how/when you get there.
12) Whence you derived inspiration?
We have been very inspired by trying to create a great experience, where we try to minimize the “game” part of it, to create something that is horrifying and unique to live through. There is a lot of times when the gameplay gets in the way of the horror in games. Features that are added just to create something for the player to do (like adding weapons to shoot a lot of monsters) almost always make a game a lot less scary. So what we hope to do is to create something that is really a dense horror experience, and not just some fun game with a couple of cheap scares.
13) What duration of game?
The length should be about the same as Penumbra: Black Plague.
14) Judging by video in game will be the built in editor of levels or it not so?
Yes, there will be a level editor as well as other tools such as a model editor and particle editor that will be released with the game or shortly after release.
15) Today when working out is almost finished, whether you think of a sequal?
We are quite some time away from being finished, so we have not yet started to think about any sequel! =)
16) Thanks for answers! Good luck to you and, certainly, game.
Thank you for thinking of us!
