It's a psychological thriller, after all.

I wouldn't worry too much about the action tho. It's coming from the guys who made Max Payne... So the parts where action will happen should still be nice.
I know they talked about "people" or "creatures" or whatever, who appears after dark. While there may not be huge actions part, there should still be some.

But action won't be the selling point of the game, they're focusing on other stuff to make it interesting and good. Right now it feels kinda like a novel/movie, but a REALLY GOOD one. Where you can take part actively in it, and see what happens from the front seat.
It seems like it'll feel like a book, in the way that : You are in the middle of the story, not just watching it from a screen, but actually seeing the story unfold at your pace and focusing on you.
But at the same time, you'll have the visual and the atmosphere that comes with it, like you'd see from a movie perspective.
