I found there are always warnings when there are demons around.  Not so 
with the zombies always, but deffo the demons.   Yeah the game is dark 
and spooky as hell.  Sposed to be.  I either cranked the sound up on the 
main set with sub woofer or cranked it up with the headphones on.  And 
played it mostly at night :)  With the sound UP, you can hear the tiny 
audio details, the whispers, the strangeness.  Really cool atmosphere! 
I really enjoy looking at all the detail in ALL that machinery.  Ain't 
any wonder it took so long to develop!
But howEVER you enjoy it, just DO...  :)
