Amnesia is extremely rare in jump scares, and it actually isn't that loud (except in some cases). The game is actually still consider one of the most scary games out there because it doesn't have jump scares. It's more of an environmental horror.

I never really had the balls to play dark descent properly, but i loved to watch those vids of people (Finnish people will probably know Raumoogle) playing it and shitting themselves.
I'm not a horror games fan to be honest, descent, though, was my very first horror game (I know what you're thinking, nice pick for a first horror game :O). Anyway, turns out, if you love the videos out there, you'll most definitely love the game, that's what happened to me :P
I recommend you getting it.
And blubkill, hardly anyone knows what a machine for pigs is gonna be about actually, other than the fact that it's going to scare the hell of you. I already prepared a new set of underwear.
