History Awesome / AmnesiaTheDarkDescent

* Sadly unheard in the game, but the Brennenburg castle had it's own epic theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-clO2UE4vgw]].

* A meta example but the inclusion of the Custom Stories. Given the game's popularity, the Custom Story option gave fans the ability to flex their creative juices and put together their own campaigns, which often enough provided genuinely greater scares than the base game was capable of coming up with and are actually difficult to top. The many mods available run the gamut from being silly to delightfully horrifying and anywhere in between.

* A Meta example: the team at Frictional took voluntary pay cuts in order to finally push the project out the door, so if it hadn't done well, they would have closed shop. The success of the game saved their company and gave them global recognition.
* Another meta example: the game being recognized as one of the only [[NoTrueScotsman "true" survival horror games]], with some going as far as calling it one of the scariest games ever made and one of the greatest horror games ever made.

*** Grunt: Did I do THAT?!
***Player: OhCrap.
* The good ending of the game is one for Agrippa. [[SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound "Don't worry, Daniel. It's going to be all right."]] [[GoIntoTheLight *FLASH*]]
** And Weyer.

* The player can get one if he or she manages to lead a monster off of a cliff or epically troll it by exploiting its AI. Doubles as [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments funny]] for the latter.
** There's one feat that isn't the result of a glitch. It's possible to ''bludgeon the water monster to death.''

* Daniel survives numerous encounters with 3 different types of monsters and he's an archeologist with no combat skills whatsoever. What. So. Ever. [[spoiler:Though it falls on your shoulders what happens to him in the end.]]

* This might be a rare double for HighOctaneNightmareFuel, but even Mr. Face, of all things, has one. Seeing that monster destroy a thick barricade ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=745LhHN4WBI with a punch]]'' is epic.
