>!When I saw the trailer for 1899, I was interested - a period setting of a derelict ship in the atlantic by the creators of Dark. A genuine supernatural ghost ship suspense mystery set in 1899. It was an interesting concept. People expected fuckery and mystery because it was the people behind Dark.!<
>!But it became obvious about halfway through that it was all a paper thin simulation. And when you discovered that, there was no tension or suspense to anything anymore. You knew no-one was really dying, or could truly get hurt. I imagine a lot of people dropped out when this became apparent. I was still planning to watch S02 because I still trusted the creators of Dark, and liked the characters - but I would have much preferred it if it was an authentic period setting.!<
