The Labyrinth wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I'm definitely over the hump in this game's spookiness.

Eddie also surprised me. I expected him to be a lot tougher than he was given some of the reactions ITT, but I oneshot him and didn't take too much damage. Quite liked the different phases, pretty good way of upping the difficulty without fucking it up too much.

Of all the things I expected them to cut, the boat ride was definitely one of them. Don't think even the most diehard purist would have complained either lol.

Just finished the music box in the hotel. Place hasn't blown me away so far, but it was also kind of a wind-down in the original. I could have done without the fireplace rigamarole, that was the only time in the game I've felt like they were padding. That boss fight was also pretty unnecessary.

The employee area had one little weird bit where you use a valve to get into the boiler room to get the key to the kitchen which is right next door, then you have to go back five feet and get the valve again to open another passage in the kitchen. In retrospect, I guess that was meant to be why the aquarium busted open, but I don't think anyone would have questioned it if you just walked in and found it broken.

I do want to compliment the puzzles. I don't think you get these kinds of puzzles much in modern video games. I quite liked the library one. It's pretty simple, but it made me feel smart for figuring it out lol. I overcomplicated the music box puzzle, thinking the little poem was meant to be adding and subtracting numbers, but it was just the last number in each one. Couldn't imagine them on hard mode.
