I get the point of doing a horror game in first-person with a minimal UI: you get drawn in more, and it is thus scarier. Also, I think I see why they add the adventure game bits; You can't have a good horror game if you can effectively fight back, so you need to challenge the player in some other way. You can go the shock, run away route, but suppose you are going for more atmospheric horror. Thus: Puzzles.<br />Does that make sense? Also: A lot of people are complaining about the lack of AAA horror games, so it FEELS like a niche, even if it isn't. <br />This is just a theory, am I crazy?
