Yea, as already pointed out, it can't kill you. What happens is, when you reach the deepest trough of insanity you end up crawling along the floor in fear, but if you do this for a little while you eventually bounce back to "pounding headache and hands shaking".
It can take a minute or two, but the process can be accelerated by very random events. Progress is obviously the only way to actually heal sanity, but the bounce-back from crawling on the floor can be accelerated by something as basic as managing to hide from a monster successfully.
This is based purely off a very recent event, but I'm fairly certain no storyline progress took place at the time. This becomes seriously amplified in latter stages when severe motion blur is present - The mouse control of looking around becomes very disjointed I liken it to playing Fallout 3 without the mouse acceleration fix, haha.
This combined with the motion blur makes fast movements difficult and running away from monsters next to impossible - Monsters see you more easily in the dark. I'm not sure this can be accredited to enhanced "night vision" on the monsters' part, but more likely your character starts to lose self-control and is unable to remain silent when hiding, etc.
Either way, when your sanity is at " Through reading some journal notes, I have noticed references to a "shadow" that appears to be chasing Daniel, trying to consume him.
At first I thought this could refer to the growing organic tissue in the castle, but to make a more literal interpretation of this would fit with a theory that suggests darkness itself is consciously trying to consume Daniel.
This is also backed up by other notes referring to psychological stress that Daniel has been suffering. There's actually one more stage past the crawling on the floor part. If you don't recover from that, your character will automatically stand up, put clown makeup on, pull out a knife, and say "Let's put a SMILE on that face!

I just tend to crawl around in the dark, since the monsters cant see you in the dark anyway. I was really excited to play my second session, and then I found no more oil, 3 tinder boxes, and went insane before I could find more. I suck. Zero sanity. No idea where to go or what to do.
One of those two things is fine, but at this point, I'm considering just trying to speed run my way to this point from the beginning, hoping to have more sanity this time. I miss multiple saves from the Penumbra games If I could back up to the last area I could use fewer tinderboxes at least I'm bad at adventure games.
I'll repeat that as much as necessary. I still don'tl ike being punished and chastised HEY. It just seems like an odd mix of adventure take your time, figure out the puzzles and action come on! Hurry up! Point: Sanity dropping this fast alternatively the oiil burning up this fast made me go from feeling like I was in a terrifying situation unlike anything I'd ever experienced to " Yeah, Daniel, roll around on the floor.
That'll get sooo much accomplished Maybe I'll walk through as in: play Machine for Pigs first Get used to the feel more at least. I just really wish I could play the game without the game messing with me for not being good at it. Not advancing is punishment enough! I don't need for it to be harder if I do poorly and easier if I do well If the game wants me to progress, or "goes easy on the player" as some people have been suggesting why does it work like that?
If you do well, you have many light sources, and this feeds back into sanity, and being able to progress easily and move quickly and so on, which means you use less oil at the least while still being able to see, so you can progress and so on.
I was in that library for hours. Trying to beat down the shelf with boxes because I couldn't think of anything else, and was out of oil from scanning every inch Positive feedback loops.

Big reason I stopped playing Shadow of the Colossus , and take your glasses This is waaaaaaaaaaay to long, but I have no idea what to cut and still be clear.
The game is awesome! I just wish it could make up its mind if it want's to let me set my own pace, or rush me along. Produget Vis profil Vis innlegg. I am really hyped for this, since my whole play-style in Amnesia revolved around monster search music and quick monster despawns. I can't wait to try it! Can't wait to do this. Does anyone know what "zero sanity" refers to? Is it when Daniel collapses briefly? And also, what is the toll you can pay if you die?
This post was last modified: , PM by TwiK I think you are right about sanity. Instead of collapsing, you just die instead. As for dying, I am not quite sure.
I don't really understand what they mean when they say "You can only save with 4 tinderboxes". In normal Amnesia, when you die, you don't go to the last save point, instead you respawn and you keep all your items. Does this mean that in the hard mode when you die, you go to the last save and have to redo everything again?
Either that, or you'll have to do the entire thing in 1 sitting unless you spend tinderboxes to save the game. Maybe only hard saves across multiple sessions cost tinderboxes. YouTube Twitter Modloader.
Another thing I am quite curious about is monster despawn time. How will it work for scripted monsters like the ones in the wine cellar or the archives? Will they become hostile now? I was thinking about the hard mode recently and I found something pretty funny. So they made zero sanity result in death, right? Remember the part at the end of the game when you do the blood ritual thing?
