According to an interview with IGN[1], the game is meant to scare the player by atmosphere and not by bloodlust or violence. Various methods of playing include slitting the throat of enemies with glass or throwing a rope over a wall using the similar motion with the freehand controller. It was also said by the developer Nibris that the game will have a special way to save progress. This will happen automatically, at specific moments unknown to the players so it can keep the feeling of reality.
Unlike other third person games, Sadness will not make use of a heads up display to allow greater immersion.
Not too much about the game yet, but the little amount seems to be a pretty good game so far. It's supposed to be released June 1st(my birthday, although, since theres not even any gameplay footage, im guessing it won't be.) and I plan on getting it.
