Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Voice Lines [With Subs]

[@Cc-on5pp]

5:56 The way he says "just a small sacrifice" always gives me chills. He so coldly calculates the sacrifice of millions of people as a "small sacrifice"

[@randomdude7384]

In the end, by the time the 20th century had ground to a close, more than 200 million people lay dead.... None had died of starvation - man-made famines not included - or disease. Those were all deaths caused by human cruelty, sadism, ideology, violence, tyranny, despotism, and, above all else, arrogance and hubris. In the Soviet Union and China alone more than 150 000 000 had been slain.

[@xMorogothx]

Yeah, but Mandus wasn't completely evil. He was being manipulated and corrupted by the machine-god. He was probably fully under the influence of the Orb he found. He sacrificed his own sons afterwards, returned to England and started building the machine. Only at the beginning of the game he seems to have woken up from it all, he doesn't remember his sons are dead, tries to save them, then when he realizes what he's done he sets out to destroy the machine. I don't think Mandus was evil, just being controlled by that spirit in the orb

This game is a masterpiece. I see it more like an interactive novel (pure literature). Is just so fascinating and scary in its own way. I love it.

It has some strong dialogue compared to The Dark Descent, but gameplay wise it is extremely weak, mainly because of Frictional.

[@GT3NB]

This game is one of the finest examples of “horror” there is. Horror and Scaring. They do serve different purposes. Scary strains primeval instinct within us and leave us in regular physical peril. It’s a lack of dominance and overwhelming vulnerability that threatens our desire to reach our goal. It is as much of a frustrating challenge simply to move forward as it is an uncomfortable desperation to not succumb to what chases us. Horror contextually scars us visually, audibly and psychologically. It doesn’t immediately threaten us but rather it rather leaves us to instigate our own torment through our ceaseless need to gather knowledge. Knowledge of things that we can’t bear. The more we learn, the more we feel threatened by the terrible surroundings we allow ourselves. It could be a foul world we come to hate that’s more terrifying than any monster chasing our shadow. It could be actions or words so harsh and cruel that it shakes us. The most brilliant monsters are the monsters that are not physical. The monsters the machine fears are events and pockets of time. They are summaries of our own terrible actions as humans. Against one another without meaning beyond simple hatred. To be frightened from a scary piece of media is nothing more than a simple and cheap trick born from art. It is quick, often unanticipated. It is however, limited creatively. Horror such as the likes of A Machine For Pigs allows us to think for a brief moment of what really scares us as a species and far too often it’s a result of our own doing and our mark on our planet. What other species wages war on its own kind over minerals and petty, arrogant spite? What other species burns and destroys the very grounds which they’re blessed to walk and marvel at merely to redesign it to their liking? The machine is not an antagonist. It is not wrong for acknowledging that humans are little mortal figures playing god and hating one another on repeat throughout history. Blessed with great minds unlike anything else in the world yet so primitive in action and thought. It’s existence however, is no answer or cure to the human condition, rather it is an example of our flawed and bloated power. Mandus commits inhuman and vile acts in an attempt to prevent inhuman and vile acts. It is great irony. All for selfish desperation to protect one’s kin. So delusional by the desperation and madness that the purge of the kin becomes a necessary cog in the monster he creates. In the end he makes the correct decision to let us, the natural monsters, make our errors and merely hope that we can one day learn from them and prevent them from repeating. So long as we continue to hate nothing will change. That is what the machine fears and it is correct. It is scared. Just like we should be scared. That is true horror. We share the machine’s dread. We may not be chased down fictional narrow corridors by fictional creatures that want to fictionally destroy us. But we can relate to the discomfort at the worst of us. The good of us allows us, rather brilliantly, the cohesion under stress to understand that this game’s example of a solution is merely another wrong that is rightly eradicated. We can relate to the want of preventing abhorrent truths but we are not swayed by desperation that falters our morals. I could talk about the brilliance of this game and story for decades. It is truly special.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a masterpiece of gothic horror and terror. It is based on primal fears: Violence, the dead, the dark, the unknown. The constant feeling of the world being more dangerous than what we perceive. But Machine For Pigs? It’s about the horror of existence, grief, and humanity itself.

that last monologue from the machine is really powerful, as much as you hate the machine you feel how much of a point the machine has and how the machine, like mandeus, has his mind broken by the despair of whats to come, thus why it is so willing to obliterate the world to stop a future of suffering.

@@d_c6550 Toby Longworth did a good job at voicing Mandus, even though we can't see a face while/ when listening to him speaking (in-game and listening to this video), we can hear some pretty strong emotions in some to most of his voice-lines.

[@Blank-tw1vb]

There's a lot of similarities between pigs and men. Our organs are similar enough that we might one day be able to transplant them, pigs are very intelligent, they show emotion, human meat tastes so similar to pork that we call it longpig, and we find them acceptable to slaughter. They don't need vast swathes of land to graze like a lot of animals, they're content to stay in their little pens and eat whatever you give them even humans or other pigs. They offer a lot of meat for only a little bit of maintenance. Their litters are large so you can get six piglets from a sow a year where you can only get one calf from a cow. They also easily and trustingly go to slaughter. They're the perfect slaughtering animal. We sacrifice them on a grand scale to feed the hungry and keep them all alive. And in the game we have to sacrifice men on a grand scale to keep humanity alive.

No, it's because not a lot of people enjoy dull walking simulators.

[@knight590wathevah]

+Pepper Millers True. It's not a complete horror game. It is a story told in the format of a horror game, but one that fails in the 'gaming' aspect. People who love this come for the story. Though I would say that we could had been given both: good story and great gaming mechanics. Sadly, the second aspect wasn't one of The chinese Room's strengths.
