Has a game every genuinely scared you, /v/?
When I was younger, Metroid Prime scared me
>>332236243
The beginning of The Suffering scared the shit out of me. The longer the game goes on, the less scary it got though
The first time killing those dogs with the pickaxe in Penumbra is the only time I've really felt scared playing a videogame. The combat in that game was fantastic, if you mistime a swing you'll just fling the camera around and end up disoriented and not sure where the enemies are.
The hotel in VTMB was pretty spooky. The crimson heads and dogs that jumped through the window in the hallway of the REmake on gamecube scared me too.
>>332236243
Not LISA. Tryhard as it was it was a pretty weak game in the end.
>>332236243Giygas
Resident Evil 2 when I was a kid.
Birkin's gross transformations were really disgusting back in the day.
Condemmed
>>332237298
The school was legit scary. The mall with the mannequins was also up there
Ocarina of Time was pretty spooky to me when I first played it, it honestly made it difficult to move forward through the game. Now all the "moody" dungeon music is just dull and uninspiring compared to something like the soundtrack in LttP.
five nights at freddies literally spooked me when i first played it, thats why i watch markiplier (whom i love) play it from now on.
>>332236243
I can't play outlast for longer than 20 minutes straight If I let myself into the atmosphere.
>>332236243
did sticky scare you, OP?
I think LISA could have more moments like these, I loved them
>>332237416
i was thinking about the subway
>>332236468
This. Fuck the chozo ghosts
>>332237746
Shit's intense
>>332237883
All the Chozo ghosts were was a waste of goddamn missiles
>>332236642
You can't deny that part where you meet the first 100 rifles dude was awesome
System Shock 2 and Thief genuinely made me feel uneasy.
>>332238045
The game was great, but the game was scariest at the beginning. Once youre running around with tons of weapons, explosives, and can turn into a Hulk wannabe the game loses its fear factor.
>>332238172
>uneasy
they made you hard?
>>332238418

Silent Hill: The Room fucked me up real good.
Also Forbidden Siren.
>>332236243
Not really.
Some unnerved me, though.
Like Lisa.
>>332237241
Resident evil 1~3 horrified me as a kid. I am still kind of spooked by them whenever I try to replay them.
I often have dreams of being in the game with the same outdated graphics. It always ends with me surrounded by zombies limping slowly towards me, until I hit the start button to go back to menu and quit the dream.
>>332236243
I've played 3 different Silent Hill games and never finished a single one.
F.E.A.R.'s suspense in the first level spooked me for good. Excellent game.
Resident Evil spooked me when i was a kid
>first resident evil i knew
>genuinely though i killed him in the first fight
>this happens
>>332238836
What's this from?
Also System Shock 1 and 2 have some pretty spooky scenes. Anything with good, tense buildup is good, jump scares are not actually scary, they are shocking which is something completely different.
>>332239227
Oh man. How pooper pampered were you?
>>332237694
You sound like some faggot I bullied in High school.
>>332238596
>fps counter
kill yourself
>>332237694
Genuinely? Not really.
I mean FEAR spooked me because I could even turn a fucking corner without expecting a jump scare. It was insanely stupid when they should have just used that fantastic combat dynamic and physic engine to do something else with it. FEAR was great whenever you didn't have to deal with that dumbass kid.
>>332239268
Forbidden Siren m8.
>>332239603
*couldn't
Co-opd this with my brother when we were kids
we got pretty spooked.
Also if you havnt played this you should its really good
>>332236243
There's only 1 part in a video game that has made me NOPE the fuck out and have to stop playing for a bit. That was the FEAR Ladder. Condemned was unsettling and the Bear in Condemned 2 was pretty crazy, nothing has lived up to that ladder though. All the recent "scary" games have been garbage.
>>332239603
I really like how FEAR cleanly divides the game between the scary and shooter segments so they never end up interfering with each other and both halves of the same whole get to stand out and be strong.
I guess it would be nice to see a full fledged shooter in FEAR's style but the horror sections probably do more good in breaking the monotony of shooting up dudes in generic alleys and buildings so that whenever the focus shifts back to that it's exciting again to be doing it and vice versa.
>>332239809
>sum41
fucking terrifying
>>332239940
It was back during when The Ring was really popular and originality shit the bed for the first time.
I think that game is among the best ever made but tell anyone else that and they start shitting from the mouth with stupid titles that don't measure up.
>>332240126

For me, it was Halo 1 for the x-box...The level "The Flood"scared the shit out of me to see so many creatures making such weird ass noises and not knowing that they were easily killed with a grenade or two
>>332237746
outlast is not scary at all though
it's got nothing on amnesia in terms of pure panic and spook factor
imo PT is still the undisputed king of spooky games. i just finished layers of fear and that game shows how easy the formula was to fuck up. what an atrocity
>>332240680
How old are you man?
I was a teenager back then, just entering high school.
I can't even imagine playing that shit back in elementary school. I was playing SMW and Sonic 2 back then, christ....
The scariest thing I played was Contra.
MGS2's arsenal gear bit scared me, and more recentlyFlowey from Undertale..
>>332240680
i gotta be honest here
this also got me spooked. I wasn't expecting itbesides, I skipped the helmet cinematic by accident, so I had no idea of the context
>>332236243
Doom scared me when I was young, got it on a shareware disc and never touched it.
I can't play spoopy games because I will legit throw my mouse and fall out of my chair like those ebin let's players, except I'm 100 percent serious. Even mildly scary games make me freak out pretty hardcore.
>>332240680
fuck man, I was not ready for zombie's and shit in my face

Demonophobia terrifies me. I couldn't even get past the second room so instead I watched a Let's Play of it. Also Five Nights at Freddies scared me to the point of me having vivid hallucinations of the animatronics for months on end. I couldn't even get past the second night. Other than that, the Jurassic Park game on the Sega Genesis scared me when I was a kid, and the first couple times I played through Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines the szlachta in the Warrens as well as the Werewolf terrified me and made me not want to continue playing.The Werewolf still terrifies me, even after five or six playthroughs.
>>332237241
Same, I remember getting a big fat grey PS1, having a bunch of friends sleep over, playing RE2 on a big screen TV with the volume all the way down.
The 90's were pretty awesome, I blame 9/11 for things going to shit.
>>332236243
When I played Thief 3 when I was a kid, I had to play without headphones to mitigate the grave spookiness which that mental asylum level had. I didn't even realize at first that I was spooked, it was a strange feeling.
>>332241575
>>332241748
>>332243296
*Volume all the way up
Around 1AM, it would be dead quite with all of us paying attention to the game, you could hear the trees rustling at night, Shit was pretty awesome as a kid.
Oregon Trail 2. This game was fucking eerie to me. The photorealistic looking people combined with the weird animation, plus images like this. There was another that was like "You've come across an abandoned wagon" and you have the choice whether to inspect it or ignore it. The game treated it as omnious, as if something bad could be in there.
And often, out of the blue, you'll be going along the trail when a harsh music note plays and something horrible happened, like your wagon tipped over or someone is sick.
>>332237298
I can't get it to run right on my laptop, but I want to play it
>>332243752
I have no fucking idea how you got that out of it.
Mayan trail and the first Myst were way more creepy than that thing.
>>332236243
This is going to sound silly, but the Goosebumps game "Attack of the Mutant" horrified me as a kid. I watched a playthrough of it yesterday, and it STILL scares me. The graphics are just this really weird, surreal mix where its cartoony but feels sort of real at the same time. Its fucking creepy. I mean just look at this shit:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQbL0gbWe_E
And look at what happens at 1:06. how that creature just stares at you down the hallway. gives me the creeps still
Cry of Fear has a couple of good spooks in the beginning parts of the game. Sadly tampers off into mediocrity as the game goes on though.

>>332236243
I had a mini panic attack playing Fatal Frame 2 once. Nothing was even happening, I think the atmosphere plus me psyching myself out getting ready for something to scare me made me more scared than I should have been
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis had some good jumpscares
Fatal Frame 1 too. I remember pausing the game because my mom wanted me to do some chores and then coming back to a pause screen filled with bloody hands that weren't there when I paused the game...

Can't recall the name but it was for Snes
>when you start the game it's just a blank screen with a clock
>it's just ticking down slowly
>begin to feel anxious
>game starts with you being teleported to some strange world and start in a huge pool of water. >getting used to the controls when suddenly black things start to swim after you.
I couldn't do water levels for the longest time after that, same reason I could never play the tomb raider games
>>332241450
Time anon.
Destiny actually got a sppok out of me, I was battling those tough guys who took many bullets to kill and I was running and looking behind me shooting, and they were teleporting closer to me,
It actually made me do a little scream in panic because I was almost done killing them and they were just getting so close.
Luckily I beat them.

I cant' even play horror games because I am too easily spooked
I get scared playing games that aren't even remotely scary.Stuff like CSGO, Bioshock Infinite, Devil May Cry, ICO, etc
>>332250859

>>332243618
>>332255297

Ps3 medievil scared the shit out of me
Bloodborne's Carrion Crows make me feel physically uncomfortable and really creeped out.
Must be because they make me think about huge, dirty pigeons, which I hate a fucking lot.
>>332255550
hfs so THAT's what this image was referencing
>>332255550
>not pregnet
I have three notable examples. Guess my fear.
First was Yoshi's Island's final boss.
Second was the giant flamethrower monster in Half-Life.
Third was the rocket on legs at the start of one of Rayman 2's levels.
>>332238172
>A marvellous choice, if I do say so myself
Protocol droids scared the hell out of me early game
>>332256823

>>332258763
>>332258924
>>332258957
It's footsteps getting louder as they get closer. I legit have to shut my eyes sometimes with this sort of thing.
>>332259110
that's super cute anon
I get ultra scared by anything in general. Which sucks since I really like horror games. Is there some kind of cure for this, I wasn't always like this.
I honestly near shit myself seeing him as a kid.
Make fun of me all you want.
>>332258528
holy fucking SHIT i'd forgotten about this thing
you just triggered me hard
>>332257002
What level was that, engineering? I fucking hated that those fuckers would constantly respawn in the cargo area.
It made me spooked a few times.
>>332260103
at least you're aware of your faggotry
>>332236243
Silent Hills, though I was already over 16. SH3 was so scary at some points that I had to encourage myself to even launch the game when I had last saved in scary spot.
>>332260103
Omega Flowey was where Undertale went from being a cute, Mother-inspired RPG to a cheap Earthbound ripoff. It even has the fucking "friends praying for you to save you" shit Giygas had.
>>332257002
>Where did you go?
>>332259110
i would have nightmares about the cyberdemon from DOOM
not because it was all that scary but just because the footsteps getting closer when you couldnt see it freaked me the fuck out
>>332260103
You're a complete fucking faggot. And not in the casual way 4chan uses the word 'faggot'.
>>332260103
it's ok
>>332260103
No, it was scary. Everything about this boss was made to seem "foreign" and out of your control. From the fact that until this point, everything was pixel art, to him shutting the game off and fucking with your save file.
>>332260506
Are you a gay?
>>332260995
this
I found the wild animal parts from The Long Dark scary. Particularly early on when you had a torch in the darkness and it would go out when you were close to a bear or wolf.
>>332244073
The myst jumpscare was really effective
I haven't really had a game spook me in a long time. but at the time dead space's sound design was great, the scares themselves were pretty cheap but the buildup was really good. at some point I was having a panic attack in one of the bathrooms for like 10 minutes, refusing to go outside because there was scratching and clanging everywhere; all while aiming at the toilet because something jumped out of one before.
such a great game, shame what happened to the series.

Penumbra was scary for me until I actually started fighting those dogs and saw that they weren't a huge threat.
>>332240292
That songs like a mixture between Blink 182 and Psychostick.
Ew.
Weebshit always scares me, not just because everyone has the same face, but also because that trash sells.
Truly terrifying.
>>332257002
How SHODAN's hatred for you and humans becomes more and more obvious made me shiver
Have you ever been Shotgun'd in H1Z1?
I was playing Nether last night, a near-dead survival mmo in an abandoned city filled with weird teleporting monsters with a couple friends. I got separated and was taking a shortcut through the empty subway.
I had a gun with nine bullets, and as I was walking down this empty, dark tunnel, theres these footsteps and creaks and moans, and I cant pin down where they're coming from. I walking through it slowly to not alert any monsters and it takes like five minutes, just this fucking horrible ambient noises. I was telling my friends who were getting into the game adn they were just telling me to get out as soon as possible. I found a room with just a stroller in it and I have never been so fucking scared.
I got to the end and went up onto the subway platform area, and just saw a bunch of beds and skeletons. As I was sitting there looking at it I hear a horrible fucking screech and whirl around to see this twisted black thing with red spotlight eyes fucking flying at me. I unload the entire fucking mag into it and screamed loud as shit. My friends were laughing their ass off and I was trying to get a grip as I was shaking.
I have no i dea who made that fucking ambient sound but it was so fucking horiffic, just quiet shuffling and creaks and shit. I legitimately couldnt tell if it was just ambient noise or actual monsters.

I'll admit the otaku-pandering games of late can be a bit frustrating to see...
...but! There are plenty of older games that take inspiration from anime and are in fact quite based! Take chrono trigger, for example. Where would it be without DBZ?
Rayman 2 freaked me out to the point where I couldn't finish it. I stopped around the third zone, where the level had spiders all over the place.
Fuck this noise

First Clock Tower for the SNES.
Something about the art style makes me uneasy...
Oh and that disfigured boy chasing you around the place with those fucking huge scissors.
Binge playing this game at 4am when no one else is around is an "interesting" experience.
Ecco The Dolphin's last level is the stuff of nightmares.
>>332236468
When I was young the baby shegoths terrified me. I couldn't get past the first place they showed up due to my unexplained fear of them. I guess its for the best I beat the game years later. The adult shegoth would have killed younger me
>>332270070
Ecco The Dolphin's story is off the rails. I'd gone many, many years assuming it was just a happy romp through dolphin-land.
>>332271437
The fact that most levels are relatively simple and whimsical just makes the other bits that much worse.

>>332236243
yes, the zombie section of "Conkers Bad Fur Day" scared me a good amount when it came out, I was around 11. My mom bought it for me the day it came out, but I couldn't bring myself to get past the zombie level, so I stopped there. I ended up restarting it/beating it a few years later.
Also, Black and White 2 scared the shit out of me.
playing it at 3 am or so in a dark house, in the front room (didn't have my own computer back them)you see, back then, it was very rare for a child to have a computer in their room
But, if the name on your profile was one in their archive, it'd whisper your name ever 20 or so min. into the headset, super slow / quiety.
I'd turn around real fast thinking someone was playing a prank. 20 or so min. later, I heard it again. again I looked around, nobody there.
Why don't any games do that anymore, that was actually some spooky shit.
>>332270264
there crocodile counterpart in 2 is worse, fucking things can swim, jump and shoot lightning.
Something about this game didn't sit right with me. It wasn't the kind of scary where you shut off the console and still felt freightened, but playing it always made me uneasy.
I've heard some 3D games from those days had that effect on people though. Gex: Enter the Gecko made me feel like that once in awhile.
>>332240630
Haha, sure kid. Are you going to get in that fucking shower or what?
This motherfucker made me afraid of water in vidya for the rest of my childhood. I couldn't even beat SotC because of this bitch.
