What happened?
Horror gaming peaked in 2014
zoomy contrarians will tell you it didn't and that this game wasn't scary and was shit.
don't be a zoomy.
Kojima had a manic episode and got fired
video games aren't scary, they never will be scary, and only retards get scared by them. It's all jumpscare bullshit rather than actual horror.
It's why shit like Resident Evil is so forgettable now compared to the campy hilarity that was 4 5 and 6.
I'd say they peaked in the mid-2000s, back when they had unique scenarios like in Siren, Rule of Rose, Haunting Ground, Kuon, Silent Hill 4.
Horror peaked until Blair Witch movie (1999) appeared. Found footage killed the horror genre in movies AND videogames.
wow you're so intelligent what an epic take i can tell by the why you write and how it makes you look like you dont care about anything. after all, all games suck and you're too intelligent and easily beat them, too brave so you dont get scared by pixels and video game stories are all too shallow so you'd rather read a book.
>saves horror
Ngl, Power drill massacre was a decent surprise too
you're a fucking retard who gets jumpscared by video games. what's with that take of all games sucking and reading books? sounds like a cope lmao
>walking through copy paste corridors with CRT filter on it
Zoomers be like: "yo this gameplay is fire"
>game released in 2014
>le ancient relic zoomzooms don't know about
Protip: “horror” is relative. Movies aren’t scary, nor are video games, nor are books. There can be good “horror” games without making you shit your pants. You are retarded if you’re only criteria for a successful horror game is “well how scared was I?” That’s your fault for having that one and only criteria
>le 35mm camera
the implication is you're a carbon copy of every other jaded Any Forumstard who thinks he is more intelligent than he actually is and posts the same retarded shit in each of these threads
>muh gameplay
go back to quake, this is a horror thread
Protip: a horror video game can only be as scary as ignorant as the player is. As soon as one learns the mechanics, there's nothing to be scared about because it comes down to video game logic.
Most players of horror games are either kids, women or faggots who get scared staring at a god damn monitor. You can get a feeling of unsettling when your mind wanders, but when you can literally just look away from the screen, it doesn't work. Jaded? No. It's called being older than a god damn child.
I blame a movie like scream more. parody movies like scary movie after killed horror more than found footage ever could
PT is not a game, this is a video game board.
Your thinking is so damn shallow I can't even fathom what a boring, unimaginative and unpleasant person you must be.
>You can get a feeling of unsettling when your mind wanders, but when you can literally just look away from the screen
Your concept of 'horror' and 'scary' is that of a child. It's sad to see.
>walking simulator is the peak of horror
go back to the 80s, your definition of games is outdated by 4 decades
>horror gaming peaked in a tech demo
