I started playing. And it was perfect. Everything looks amazing. The environment, the lighting, the sound, the atmosphere. Everything. And then, then I step in front of a light, and I FREAKING CAST NO SHADOW!
Way to break immersion AC. Good job. Seriously, if you could create something to see when you look down, would have it been so hard to have the character cast a shadow?
Anyway, my rant aside, the game is really good. Really. Get it. Play it. Get terrified.

Like I said, Amnesia, Outlast, Penumbra. It's first person. You can walk or you can run.
You can't pick up objects unless they are context sensitive, like resources or flares or stuff like that.
Stealth is good. The alien can hear, and see and will be hunting you by sight and sound. So you need to hide behind stuff, in darkness or in lockers. You can also toss flares to distract it.
There is easy, normal and hard. Dunno what the difference is. I play games on the hardest difficulty as default.

I agree with everything said thus far. I think it is an incredible game. My only complaint I had was the up close detail on the alien could have been better. From afar it looks great, but up close, when its about to take you out... it just looks a tad too cartoon-y. There is no we glimmer of slime, and with such detail to make it feel like the 1st alien movie, I would have hoped they put as much effort into the
alien's iconic killing appearance.
Perhaps my graphic settings are too low, or my video card has gotten old. Will mess with things later on.
