Started the horror genre? I don't think so. It may have taken it in a different direction tho.

AITD on a 486DX. That does evoke nostalgia.

In my case it was a 486DX/2 66. The internal CPU speed was doubled to 66MHz and the surrounding circuitry ran at 33MHz. I don't think I could afford a full 486DX at the time, being about 16 years old. I know I definitely had a 40MB hard drive but can't remember if that was at the same time, or if I loaded AITD into RAM by swapping floppies.

Hopefully it's a lot better than the last attempt

Ah, good times. Still remember being blown away when going from a 486 DX2 33MHz to a 486 DX4 100MHz, being completely baffled at how Doom ran oh so much faster

About Alone in the Dark, let them bring it and hopefully it'll be something that actually embodies the spirit of things like Penumbra and Amnesia series that have brought a proper semblance of horror to modern times.
