The thing that makes stuff really scary is that feeling that something is going to happen all the time, jumpscares just ruin that because after 2 or 3 you know that they are going to happen, the perfect thing would be to be tense and shitting bricks for 2 hours straight and when you think is over that's the moment where you have to put a jumpscare

Just think about all the amazing ideas the creators of Portal, for example, had already implemented into their games, but the playtesters found it "too confusing".
This is why the game is so easy and requires no reflexes and quick thinking whatsoever.
I bet it's the same for horror games.

Horror games usually don't get toned down, but the puzzles may be simplified but it isn't always as bad as Machine for Pigs.
The genre ruining problem though is playtesters and executive meddlers thinking the game's boring so they have to add a combat system.
Just look at Soul Suspect, the combat in that game is so infuriatingly tacked on that I'm glad it bombed.
>>284756134
Wasn't there something like this in Nightmare House 2 where when nothing's happening the subtitles would say "look behind you" or something and you'd find an enemy waiting behind you or something?
>Akrham Asylum
>Enter morgue
>Doors start opening and closing
>Voices whispering "You should leave...You should get out of here..."

>>284756669
Indeed. At least most game developers are too lazy to implement a combat system and instead give usThe horror known as quick time events.
At least it's better than half assed combat systems in games that clearly weren't designed for this type of thing.

I just looked it up. It's not as scary as I thought it would be.
I was expecting something more.
"Emergency procedures in progress. Please proceed in an orderly fashion to the nearest emergency exit." You know as if it'd been playing in Generic Abandoned Building X for months or something. And you'd hear it periodically as you're exploring.
"Emergency procedures in progress. Please proceed in an orderly fashion to the nearest exit."
And it just sort of becomes background noise.
Maybe at some point you reach an extra restricted area, and it changes to, "Unauthorized entry. Security to sublevel C," or whatever. And of course, nobody's around, so nobody ever comes, but it reminds you the intercom exists again. And then it returns to the original message.
"Emergency procedures in progress. Please proceed in an orderly fashion to the nearest exit."
And you move onto other things, and nervous and scared about other stuff, like that weird bloody hallway or something. It's been an hour and you're not even hearing the message anymore.
"Emergency procedures in progress." Only half the message plays, and there's a pause. "They didn't listen either."
>Can only see what your flashlight illuminates
Having such a limited field of view is always spooky.

Farmhouse. Surrounded by corn fields. During the day. Foggy, maybe. No night.
You have to work during the day, running the farm. No way you can feed your family without working. You and your family go out to work together, but split off to do your own chores. Something or someone is hunting you. You go in every night to your house where you're safe. Have to go out every morning to work.
Little things like, scarecrows changing positions, corn fields shuffling, wheat fields shuffling. Dead livestock.
Then maybe, one 'day' you have to go out at night to do a simple task, maybe it's windy as fuck as a gate as swung open, if you don't close it and seal it, your livestock will escape and you'll be broke. But something is out there, you tell your family never to go out at night, even with other people.
You alone, have to go out there.

I know, I looked it up. I'm a little disappointed is all.
Can we make this horror game thread?
I love it when I can't see monsters or it is incredibly difficult to see.
I also HATE (in a good way) water areas where you can see the bottom.
Resident Evil was scarier when you couldn't see where you were going.
Also tank controls best.
