Finished this mod today, it's a bit of a quickie, took me about an hour and change.

I really LOVED the atmosphere the game creates (I haven't felt this level of "soul-heavy distress" by a game since the police station the first time I played Resident Evil 2).

Anybody else have thoughts about this game?

When I saw this I thought the remake had been updated. It wasn't. If you want another really awesome mod, look up Korsakovia. Same guy.

It's a great mod, and it proves that you don't need monsters to make a game eerie, all you need is a good atmosphere.

Gonna wait until the remake is done before I play this.

Here's an image of it:



He says he's about 2/3rds done with it, and that was a few months back (it takes him several months of work per level).

And yes thats teh source engine.

A...A remake? I have heard no such news! Glorious day!

You either wait for the remake or play the original. Check www.moddb.com[url=http://][/url].

Similar to Amnesia (in the eerie environment sense?)

And if I hear one zombie noise that reminds me of minecraft, I'm rage uninstalling it  :o.

Looks interesting, I'll give it a look. Thanks!

Forgot how good the music is to the game too.

Dear Esther Soundtrack - 01 - The Beginning

Check it out. New update to the remake to remind you that it is one of the best looking mods of all time.

Don't worry, there's no enemies to kill you.  It's about atmosphere and exploration, not opposition.

I do not understand... Is this already out and available for play, or what?

how do i install it though

It was originally released as a HL2 mod like three or some years ago.  However, some fine gentleman has taken it upon himself to update the old mod and make it look as sexy as the screen shots you see here.  If you want the sexy, wait.  If you want the story, go search ModDB for it.

Will wait.
