Maybe the best library of all time, my DS collection is massive.

The one thing that's sad though is how many classics are unlikely to ever see a rerelease. Games that were designed around the hardware just won't be the same on any other platform.

When I played the original Fatal Frame it was unlike anything I had played at the time. The Penumbra series was also up there.

These 2 series lead to me realizing I disassociate when I watch or play horror and I stopped consuming that genre.

ConstableJelly,

Fatal Frame has gotten lost to history a bit, but I remember those games having the reputation as being the scariest that games have ever gotten when they were new.

ripripripriprip, do games w Splatoon 3: After 2 INK-redible years, regular updates will come to a close.

The people in here complaining about getting a full campaign along with PvE and PvP updates over two years for $60 are the reason we’re in this free-to-play, season pass, paid cosmetic hellscape.

Alien: Isolation. That shit is unplayable it’s so scary.

Megaman_EXE,

It was definitely intense, that’s for sure. The aliens AI is pretty cool. At release, it was very exciting to see how advanced it seemed.

Cyv_,

It has a VR version and I’m pretty sure if I tried it I’d run into a wall in a panic a few times at least.

state_electrician,

When it came out, I saw the trailer and decided that it’s not for me. Way too scary. Then recently I watched a commented speed run and thought “Yep, I was right”.

Recently, some games that shouldn’t have freaked me out, but did, were parts of Outer Wilds and Subnautica. Subnautica, in particular, got me with a very good jump scare that I think made me jump harder than any horror game has in the past decade lol.

I find games that induce dread really help with being scared. If you have any niche titles I would love to hear them too. I must have missed a lot probably anything prior to 2005. But even recent titles there’s a chance I could have missed them too!

WalnutLum,

You should play voices of the void then. Game is chock full of random spooks with lots of very quiet and relaxing downtime, so they hit pretty hard when they happen.

Some games it was just the difficulty that scared me.

There were plenty of jump scare games that definitely got me like the early RE and SH games. Even Metroid games got me when I was a kid.

I haven’t tried a horror game in more than 20 years though!

The first fear game really scared me when I was younger. I was 16 maybe and that’s how I found out I don’t like ghosts haha.

Playing in ym room at night alone in the dark. Ghosts coming out that I can’t hurt haha

Fuck that was bad

Darkwood. Incredible 2d survival horror game.

Easily the scariest was „Amnesia: The Dark Descen“ (2010).

sleepybisexual, do gaming w I have been getting into emulation (discussion)

Ooh. What systems you playing? I mostly playing GBA rn

Gamers_mate,

Ps2 at the moment but I have played NES/SNES and ps1.

sleepybisexual,

On PC? Or what hardware? :3

Gamers_mate,

On pc though I still have a ps2 if I wanted to play on the actual hardware. But I do find Emulation is easier to set up no plugging the AV cords into the tv or constantly having to change discs to play different games. I also use Aethersx2 if I want to play ps2 games on android.

sleepybisexual,

Ooh :3

I mostly play on dedicated machines,

Also try nethersx2 its a aethersx2 patch that removes ads and shit

Gamers_mate,

I don’t mind as long as they don’t make the ads intrusive. If the ads become intrusive I will try nethersx2.

Soma is definitely up there. It’s slowburn and not jumpscares. But when that shit hit, it hit hard.

Megaman_EXE,

I thought it was pretty good! There were definitely some tense moments for sure

Faydaikin,
@Faydaikin@beehaw.org avatar

But what type of spooky are you looking for?

Megaman_EXE,

Oh man, absolutely anything to make me feel dread or have me not knowing what to expect. Which is vague, I know. I feel like I’ve played so many horror games that they start to feel too gamey? If that makes any sense? It’s like I can predict when scares will happen or the gamey aspects sometimes don’t immerse me.

Oddly enough, subnautica really had me on my toes a few years back. Fatum Betula was an indie that also gave me some heeby jeebies but wasn’t exactly scary either.

I feel like I’ll probably need to crawl through dozens of indie titles or something. Or possibly go back to titles made prior to 2005. I’m also not caught up on recent games in the past couple of years, so maybe there’s something special I’ve missed.

But I’m also just curious to hear what made everyone else scared, too!

Welp, as a tie-over I can recommend plowing through some of the stuff on Gamejolt.

There’s a few pretty good indie spookies for free. They aren’t too long, but have some pretty good concepts if nothing else.

But yeah, one tends to get a bit numb on horror after a while. It helps to take a break every now and then.

Megaman_EXE,

I don’t know if I’ve ever been on gamejolt before, thanks, I’ll take a look!

Yeah, that makes sense. I guess I’m chasing that next scare. Something to wow me again, haha. I’m sure there’s gotta be something out there

Amnesia.

Vodulas, do gaming w What are the scariest games you've played?

I don’t know if I would call it horror, but Dredge is fantastic with creeping dread

Megaman_EXE,

Ooh I think I’ve heard of that. Thanks, I’ll check it out!
