I played the Dark Void demo on the 360. There are some good things about the game in principle and I want to like it, but it just isn't feeling that immersive to me. A big thing that is breaking the experience for me, is that the music is so loud and intense the whole time you can't really hear anything else subtle in the game. This is making the world feel empty and hollow. I can't even hear footsteps or anything to reinforce that the player is moving in this world.
To prove these devs weren't fully crazy I went into the options and turned the music volume way down, sure enough there are movement and ambient sounds in the game. I can only come to the conclusion that Dark Void is an elaborate demo tape for an alien syth-rock band.
Interest in freefall...
