Probably the first F.E.A.R. mainly because I was 10 when it came out for the Xbox 360. Prior to that was Doom 3, in which I was 8 years old. So, as of now, I will be turning 20 in June, so, I'm pretty null to the sense of what a horror game should feel like, as I do not get scared.

Holy fuck I didn't realize Fear came out almost 11 years ago...

Well that made me feel old real quick.

SOMA scared the crap out of me. I love horror games, but I'm a fucking wimp.

Besides the jumpscare ones?
the first amnesia game, but before that the first AvP game, because of the motion tracker, I couldnt finish the marine campaign.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D got a jump out of me when the spider appeared. You know the one.

How is SOMA? I enjoy horror games myself but I didnt like the idea of another hide-n-seek/no combat styled game
>>
Layers of Fear. Despite the mediocre showing it was pretty great. Definitely needs VR support

My standards for a good horror game is if it can give me sweaty hands, then it passes.

Great atmosphere.
Monsters are annoying, nothing more and its just that, hide and seek shit, which is sad, considering the possibilities with you being underwater and such, I would have wished for more enviromental hazards and such

I feel like a fucking twat for saying this , especially since I played games like Amnesia and resident evil ok.

But, it was Luigi's Mansion that spooked the shit out of me on occasion.

Not really a game I guess, but I really felt Keiichi's paranoia in the first arc of Higurashi.

Was playing King's Field 2 exploring the termite den. Nothing too scary. Suddenly a termite on a higher level dropped on me and scared the living shit out of me.

When I replayed the game around 5 years ago, so around Freshman or Sophomore year of high school, I played through Perseus Mandate, which, thinking about still kind of gives me a visceral feeling to this day.

penumbra black plague for sure, scariest video game imo
>>
>>334505854
I've yet to play any of the Penumbra games. Is it true it's just a better Amnesia?
>>
>>334505632
I've honestly forgot PT even existed.
>>
>>334506841
>just a better amnesia
wat, it can feel similar due to same dev/similar engine, but not really
both are great games, but black plague is far scarier because you cant kill your assailants, in overture you can kill the dogs chasing you (you dont have to, but you still can do it), in black plague it aint like that
i recommend trying overture first
>>
>>334507010
I usually play games via release order. Which of the two came first?

Jump scares don't count, they are startling not scary. Scary is the shit you have trouble sleeping about later that night

I've played games after PT.

IDGAF but Slender the arrival does the whole "being hunted" feeling right.
A gradual build up of tension coupled with an expected reveal and damn near no jump scares.

This guys on OOT on the N64. It has been 19 years, i think. Horror games are all boring, and non frightening to me.
