>>343146665
I thought I was bad about spiders, but they don't bug me when I'm playing games or see them in movies or see them in pictures. Sometimes I watch videos with them on Youtube. It's only when one is too close to me in real life that it starts to bother me.
>>343146665
that fucking cave in Doom 3 with a million spiders. fuck that shit
>skyrim insectsbegone mod
I fucking hate this shit and the slimers in Duke3d
Recently, Call of Duty Black Ops 3 the new jungle maps. I mean fucking seriously, fucking giant spiders in a zombie game? Fuck you, what about birds or fucking panthers or the 100s of stuff that live in jungles? Never touching that map ever again.
Mother fucking Ty the Talisman Tiger, back when i was younger, dropped that game so fast when i saw them.
That Vindictus MMO also had spiders in it, but i wasn't all that freaked out by them, i don't know why.
Its just the way they walk and run up to you. And then they jump at you and thats the end of that.
>>343146665
Those fucking spiders in the Dragon Age games..
Not only are they fucking huge but they drop down from the ceiling with a loud ass screech.
My heart skipped a beat like 400 times during those games.
I have no problems with spiders or insects in a game.
However;
>Play a game
>Drop it when it requires you to swim around underneath water
I know the feeling. Even worse if the game has fish enemies.
>>343147518
Best aqour.
>>343146891
With video games, I was always ok with it, but would get that feeling like something was crawling on me.
When I was a kid though and at my grandparents place with my sisters they wanted to watch Arachnophobia and since then even in movies they freak me the fuck out.I did watch Eight Legged Freaks when it was out in cinemas and thought it was hilarious but fuck those jumping spiders
I'm fine with most spiders because they're not animated in a way that feels as creepy as a real spider. That screenshot makes me feel uneasy even though I don't know how it's animated, they got the leg length/width to body ratio just right. Skyrim's fat fuzzballs are adorable in comparison.
It's not spiders, by I dropped Prince of Persia after I had a nightmare with the sand zombies.
Fuck zombies. Fuck the proto-Arkham clusteruck of a battle system that makes them hard to kill, too.
>>343146665
But vidya is the best way to fight that fear.
Spiders are fine for me both in real life and in video games. We need more enemy bosses that are giant, gelatinous and throbbing flesh heaps/worms/slugs.
>>343146665
Dark Messiah's the only game that I dropped due to spiders, their animations and the way they latch onto you and cover your screen was too fucking much
I almost dropped Half Life 2 because of the poison headcrabs though
>>343150445
>I almost dropped Half Life 2 because of the poison headcrabs though

And when there is heaps of spiders, blue tongue lizards cone and get the numbers down again
>>343146665
But you'll miss the optional giant spider boss. Dark Messiah is one of those games that gog should have picked up a long time ago.
>>343151491
this is one of my favorites because it looks like a skeleton spider
>>343153953
the superior might and magic games are sold instead
When I was younger I legitimately couldn't finish Doom1 E3 because of the bunny head due to witnessing a baby bunny fall one story and break its neck as a toddler (don't remember its spine or rib was sticking out).
So the Spider Mastermind indirectly gave me PTSD until I got over it.
When you're younger your imagination fills in so many gaps.

Dark Messiah is fantastic, you should try it. It's easily in my top ten.
>>343155060
I have played it. It's a good action game just a terrible Might and Magic game.
>>343154935
Well if I remember correctly, spiders have a lot of significance in regard to the game's plot.
Bloodborne and it's blood spiders. They could kill me in three hits and I had to kill an infinite hoard with eight at a time coming at me. I wanna beat that damn chalice dungeon
>>343146665

I've heard black widows actually aren't very dangerous to humans. It's brown recluses that are the real problem, and they're not as easily identified.
i usually don't mind spiders in games since they're not animated to move or behave the same way as in real life
the dark souls 2 spiders were too much for me though, especially their shadows and the way they just dangle from places
NOPE
>>343156564
The funny thing about Skyrim is that it stops scaling hitboxes appropriately after a certain point, so if that were in the game, you'd have to guess where to actually hit it.
fucking dropped as soon as I saw this shit

they're not in 2.
well, there's one mission, but only briefly and you could just skip it. give it another shot man.
>>343158992
as much as I hate them, I hope there's something similar to the deku tree in BOTW. or like the caves in return of the king. just a huge spider's nest. that would be terrifying. and for them to not look like they were ripped out of a Pixar movie.
>>343158356
nigga what? Its the spider boss in the first skyrim dungeon
>>343159301
No creature in vanilla Skyrim is that big. Someone used the setscale command on it. And that's actually not the first dungeon; it's Ustengrav, which is the third or fourth dungeon, and despite its dramatic entrance, that spider isn't a boss.
>>343146665
Arachnophobia is call of duty of phobias, fucking normies, you're asking to remove spiders on all gaming forums for all games with spiders.
>>343159301
No, it's not. The biggest Frostbite Spider is the Wounded Frostbite Spider and that's as big as pix related.

Science
>>343160569
This is a thread for spiders, anon, not copper rods covered in ketchup
>>343160453
That dude's not quite right. Caffeine and Cocaine cause similar effects when it comes to spiders. Their webs become irregular and kind of weird looking.
There's no proof they are more receptive to it than humans though and there's not a lot of research on what else it does to them. If the cups were mad out of her webs the coffee would be pouring out, that's for sure.
>>343149581

>>343160491
They are spawns of satan. They grew extra legs so they could kill better. They exist to torment and murder needlessly more than they require to eat. They eat their babies, or are eaten by them in some fucked up fight for survival.
They are the embodiment of everything immoral and wrong.

Dark Souls II and that cave. I have to play it in widowed mode at 600x400 and with the eyes half closed.
The only thing that unnerved me in the Dark Messiah devilspawn was the sounds they made.
Fucking screaming spiders.
Anyone remember the giant intelligent friendly spider in neverwinter nights? She made you a pimpcloak and shit. Would bang.
>>343165673
Spiders aren't insects
people who are afraid of spiders in games are usually either 6 year olds or 9gag tier mememasters
arachnophobia literally doesnt apply into shitty fantasy designs with terrible unrealistic animations and movement patterns, its the exact opposite effect of something like D-dog in MGSV where real dogs genuinely stop to stare at the screen because its animated pretty well even if the graphics arent that special
spiders irl are soundless and their movement hasnt been accurately mimicked in any game off the top of my head, most of them are crab looking fuckers designed by 14 year old fantasy faggots that just waddle towards you
thalassophobia though...
>>343165178
there's no for sure science behind it.
most people believe it's down to ancient spiders from a long time ago when they we're dangerous to humans and we built up a fear of them as a defence mechanism.
a few thousand years later and most people still suffer from the phobia despite spiders being harmless to us, even the black widow's venom is near useless compared to any venomous snake or frog/toad.
shame really spiders are pretty cool
Spiders are bros. If you're a man and afraid of them, you should do the honorable thing and end your miserable existence.
Mandatory. I hope nobody beat me to it.
>>343168505
Im afraid of most insects for some reason and am a pretty fearful person in general
hence why Im actually brave while low IQ chads who are too stupid to be afraid of anything are just that
I didn't even see any spiders and I almost dropped it at this point.
What greeted me past the fog was pretty nice though.
>>343168425
damn, I watched that anime, where is this from? some special?
>>343158936
Those weren't the giant spiders.
>>343168938

Leanna, just because I'd rather be with Xana than you doesn't mean I'm evil.
>>343173062
Not known for sure, but i think in the book that is the theory behind them appearing so quickly. The nuclear war was only a generation ago and some the monsters appeared very quickly afterward, while others took a lot longer. Its also possible they could be bio weapons, made and locked away by the Soviet government, this is one origin theory for the dark ones.
The books are a lot more fantastical than the games, twice as much weird stuff goes down.

The entire point of spiders being scary is their small size that can make them crawl in your clothes and all
If they're giant, they're just like a lion or something, who cares

SS13. Not because spiders are icky, though, but because if there are more than three spiders on your screen at any point of the game, the round officially went to shit and you should just bend over and allow them to fuck you. It will be easier this way.
>>343183185
Still want a rip off of the game but with Starship Troopers, using absurd levels of persistent blood and gore throughout the map. In EDF the characters kind of just ragdoll around while saying funny shit, I get what its going for and I love it but I want to see the other side of it, I imagine it would actually be more popular too.

They're cute, harmless, small, don't spin webs, hunt other spiders and can are apparently smart enough to adapt their hunting habits to unknown spiders.Trust me
I knew that was Dark Messiah even with the small catalog thumbnail.
Fuck those spiders.

I really find it weird just how expansive arachnophobia is.
Spiders in vidya really have very little in common with actual spiders.
