Bassically I started to play horror games for youtube, a huge change from my minecraft/tutorial lifestyle but i kinda like it. Basically post any games of any kind and i'll give then a try (if I have time depending on how many lol). Just think of the best ones you can. I've already got games like fear 3, slender:the arival, gmod slender, neverending nightmares
Found this game called blackbay asylum that looks promising!
I'd recommend Silent Hill 2. The best game of the series by far. Quite scary and depressing.
"It's a fascinating voyage of pain and despair that leaves you emotionally drained and satisfied, like fucking a burning dolphin."- Yahtzee on Silent Hill 2
5 Nights at Freddy's is just jump scares and poor game mechanics... and Dead Space gave me a splitting headache after about 10 minutes, even in windowed mode. So I guess that's kind of scary lol. I definitely didn't want to play it anymore.
This. It can startle but doesn't horrify. I agree about the poor game mechanics too. Stupid as hell. Why does a door need power to stay closed? Fuck gravity being weak. I find Dead Space has the same problem. Especially the later ones. More of just action games/shooters that have a lot of blood and gore.
I watched Jesse Cox play White Night on his Greenlight series. It was more spooky and ominous than flat out scary, but the black/white art style, cult themes, and the reliance on match light makes for some eerie gameplay
