What are the scariest ones in your opinion? For me it's the kitchen woman in Alternate Watch and Photoshop Flowey in Undertale.

>>714990486 (OP)
Scary only works when you have a good imagination. I lost that somewhere around when I was 11 I believe? That was when first FNAF game took off with ecelebs, I remember downloading a few 3D free fan games and playing them at night and later on shitting myself from anxiety not being able to fall asleep, good times ( I cannot experience that anymore).
Idk if there is actually anything genuinely scary fiction ( as opposite to very scary every day reality ) out there anymore.

>>714991475
Boomer horror is shit. Just a guy with cape, guy with mask, guy with fedora, etc.

>>714991637
Deflection

>>714991786
It's the truth. Guy with cape isn't scary. Zoomer horror is more eerie and creative than boomer horror. Refute it, you can't.

>boomers shat themselves over this

>>714991859
Im not saying its not real, im saying you are deflecting.
You cant handle what i said and just pivoted the discussion to something else

>>714992105
I love these movies but don't find them scary but it must have been such a wild experience watching these in theater as the The Silent Generation. It's hard to imagine growing up with silent movies and then going into these "talkies"

>>714991859
Analog slop is literally all the same

>>714991859

Shut the fuck up. "Boomer" horror is at least comfortable. Like having a weird ass dream

>>714991475
let people have fun you miserable blud

zoomer horror is the most boring autistic shit. dracula and frankenstein aren't scary but they're cool, zoomer horror isn't cool or scary.

>>714991475
>says this when you dumb millennials were shitting your pants over a husky photoshopped with blood and human teeth and Skrillex Sonic saying "I AM GOD" and laughing like Kefka

So we can all come to the consensus that horror as a genre just sucks?

>>714993326
>dracula isn't scary

I contest, it's all about presentation and what mood they are going for. In pic related Drac doesn't fuck around and eats 2 children on screen to get his point across.

I'm hijacking this thread to ask:
Does anyone have or remember a set of images showing some guys going into the woods and awakening some kind of demon? I can't recall where I saw it, more than it was pretty realistic image wise and black and white.

>>714993540
No. I pass the apple test.

>>714993540
Yes, because most horror makes the mistake of trying to be scary, when the creepiest stuff simply is and only happens to be scary by accident. Same idea with being funny. The harder you try to be funny, the more unfunny you are

>>714992105
Honestly it's strange that boomers coming back from a war that had the worst war crimes committed in the history of man and limbs flying everywhere could find something like this or the creature from the black lagoon scary

>>714993540
>play horror game
>expect horror
>as a result can't be scared (best case scenario you get hit with a cheap jumpscare)
Yes

Actual war veterans wouldn't find it scary but normie civilians would.

>>715002223
You're here talking like millennials haven't been edlessly seething at boomers and zoomers for the past decade. What a pathetic generation.

>>715007440
For intentional uncanny valley? Probably some stuff in horror VNs since it's easier to create a baseline that you can stray away from. I recall a lot of Silent Hill enemies (like the nurses in 2) were meant to fall into this due to their lack of a face, but I feel like those are different enough from the standard human form to not really trigger the creepiness.
Or maybe I'm just distracted by their tits.

Only ps1 and n64 games can make you scared. Your brain has a really hard time with the pixels so it fills in the gaps into something much more frightening.

>>715009194
Just when I was thinking "damn that's pretty alright" the stupid fucking monster propped up and the guys reacted to it with all the energy and zest as seeing their mate keel over and puke his belly out at 5AM after one too many beers.

I feel like alot of backroom monsters just don't fit into the environment design wise. You have pic related as a staple of liminal spaces content and it just doesn't work. It's like putting Jason Voorhees into a sterile office environment.

>>714991475

>>715008804
Set it in a factory of some kind, make said factory cartoonishly massive, smear colorful memorabilia everywhere, break the game into multiple parts, have only one monster for each part, make the monsters the central part of the game but have no plot significance, have all the plot significant characters be long dead before the game ever started, hide the story in a handful of audio logs, make the story about a big bad ceo, give the player some random gimmick tool that makes no sense

>>714993540
You can read a story and get something out of it one way or another; people will enjoy it varying degrees. One's enjoyment of horror is almost entirely binary. Either it's scary or it isn't. If it isn't scary then it will just seem stupid.

>>715002223
millennials made "I'm not my parents" their entire personality because boomers made fun of you too much

dracula as an idea is actually insanely scary, just not to the post-modern population of today. a soulless undead satanic demon that roams the countryside looking for people to deceive and blood to suck is indeed scary if you are a christian rural person in pre-modern europe.

Dracula the book is about the 'horror' of being cucked by a rich noble. Its literally just an NTR VN in book form. There is even a scene where the man talks with his fiancee through a door while she is being fucked by vlad in the next room over.

>>714993540
Horror is a weird genre to work with because being scared is unpleasant for most people so it's popular but not popular at the same time
It's also incredibly low budget as both a filmmaker or a game dev, don't really need any significant assets, just a guy walking in the dark
so you end up with a mountain of low budget garbage with some diamonds in it, so yes it's a shit genre but the whole medium attributes to it and you do occasionally find good stuff

ignoring any current problems with dev trends, the problem with horror as a genera comes from expectations.
if you're expecting the horror, it just falls flat.
there's nothing else to it. no long elaboration, no catch or trick, its just that simple.
you can make otherwise normal games that have spooky/eeries areas, but it can never be the main focus.

horror works best as a whiplash factor, not as its own genera where the focus the entire time is the horror.
if its the focus for a majority of the time, you'll adapt to it and everything falls flat.
take voices of the void for example. there's just enough downtime between events for you to settle back in and get cozy. then whiplash happens and you're back to stressing about whats preventing you from pausing.
>you're not even a real horror game to begin with, you're a horror section in another genre

I think that this is just the issue with making a horror thing designed to scare horror fans. It is very difficult to surprise people who've been immersed in a genre for years, and horror is probably the most reliant on the unexpected to get its intended result.

Sturgeon's Law. Singling out the horror genre and pretending other genres like comedy, fantasy and sci-fi don't also just have a handful of gold nuggets in a sea of shit is preposterous. There are a lot of variables to consider when it comes to horror especially since the way some people consume it is pretty cringe like they're looking to prove something by going "I didn't get scared" as if that's the only important thing when it comes to horror. Comedies rarely elicit a laugh out of me personally but that doesn't mean I can't still enjoy them and also think they're good.

Culturally, horror is also in a unique position where to most people if it's "too good" or "too much fun" then it can't be horror because horror is supposed to be gutter trash. Jaws, Misery, Silence of the Lambs, The Sixth Sense, Black Swan and Get Out are perfect examples of this mentality and what do they all have in common with each other? They were all nominated for Best Picture and/or Best Actor/Actress at the Oscars so they get called thrillers instead. Not horror thrillers just simply thrillers. The Exorcist seems to be the only one exempt from this but I've seen people claim that Alien or Aliens isn't one either or basically any great horror comedy like Evil Dead 2 or Shaun of the Dead etc.

>They were all nominated for Best Picture and/or Best Actor/Actress at the Oscars so they get called thrillers instead.
This was especially prevalent in the 90s and 2000s because studios thought they could increase rentals and critic approval by labeling their more prestige horror movies as thrillers.
Most people probably aren't aware of this but David Fincher himself and Andrew Kevin Walker (the writer) have both stated many times that they consider Se7en to be a horror film disguised as a thriller and New Line Cinema deliberated over whether or not they should market it as one at first. Their approach to it as a horror movie is why they fought the studio so hard to keep the ending that we got.

Then there's someone like James Cameron who has also always maintained that the first Terminator film is a horror/slasher film and Darren Aronofsky has also said he intended for Black Swan to be a horror film back when he made the press tour promoting its release. He even said the same thing for Requiem for a Dream.

It's the same with vidya like Doom and RE4 where the creators themselves have come out and said repeatedly over the years that they intended for those games to be action games but also horror games at the same time but that's still not good enough for some evidently.

>>714990486 (OP)

Nothing bad with it. There are just more optimal mediums for it. You also have to pick what you actually like in horror. Do you want gore? Do you want a love story but the chick is a ghost? Do you want to discover something weird? Do you even actually want to be scared?
The best medium for it so far I've seen is the short story since it outsources most of the resources you need to construct a scene to the reader, cannot meander and has to pace itself to actually deliver on the horror. It feels like creepypastas had some real potential to get seriously good once their authors got older, but a lot of the time they just move on to other things, and it's kinda a shame.
I've used to read a lot of web horror back in the day. There was some fun shit like
> teens bring a cube full of materials used for X-ray scans to their home and break it down, suffering a predictable fate
> some dude gets mailed a fucking gravestone to their flat, leading people to believe that he's actually dead
> urbex guy searches for things in a house to be demolished soon and finds an entire room full of increasingly insane notes from his friend who tried exploring it and got stuck in that house forever
> a bunch of radio enthusiasts buy some headphones that lead them to discover a hidden military excavation in a nearby phone station
and so on. Not the scariest or most creative things out there, but they're well-made and effective enough. They're also not easily transcribed to the gaming medium, unfortunately. The efficiently terrifying games would probably have you encounter some alternative logic you have to decipher to survive. Things that make total sense in another world, that sort of thing. You can't follow tropes or subvert tropes, you have to do away with tropes entirely, that's the hardest part.

As a guy who's been burned out on the horror genre for awhile, is there anything that's actually , genuinely got you that you would recommend?

Honestly as I've gotten older horror just doesn't hit the same way, the older you get the more media you consume the more you're able to just tune things out. Horror kind of hinges on extremes and the unknown and the more you know and experience it just kind of fades a bit. I've genuinely not played anything in the last 10 years that's done anything for me, and I've been trying a lot of things, but God do I want to relive the days when I was 10 and games made me genuinely jump

the only horror related thing to really spook me, not like a jumpscare or a fright, but the kind of shit that had me checking corners and my back during my 12 hour nightshift patrols alone, for days, was that scene from that australian horror movie "Lake Mungo"

I really recommend not watching that scene specifically immediately, its perfectly built up through the whole movie, but here it is
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNUfmV-ExTQ&ab_channel=PandaaXBear

That movie really bothered me. Not because of Orlok, but what happens immediately after this scene. The guy's entire family is murdered. Wife. Infant children. Hours later, he has a fucking funeral for them. And then the rest of the "good" guys try and wrangle him in to kill Dracula. And when he's spacing out, and not doing well, they're like, "what's your problem, bro?" He even apologies to them. Then they act surprised when he's left alone for five minutes, and then kills himself.

To be fair, it's not like mental illness was well understood back in that time period. Soldiers back from war who experienced what we now call PTSD were thought to be weak and effeminate, for example.

>>715035369
The thing is, this series of events took place probably in under 16 hours. Wife and two children murdered, and then buried. And then everyone was like, "okay, dude. Here's our big plan to kill Dracula. You in?" It's my biggest complaint of the movie, because it made all the protagonists look retarded.

On the topic of Dracula, I REALLY wish that adaptations of the story would stop trying to push Dracula and Mina Harker as any sort of couple. Jonathan and Mina have a very lovely and supportive dynamic, but people keep throwing that away for some stupid "forbidden attraction" angle.

>>715034158
I tried Phasmophobia in VR and while it wasn't scary I did actually enjoy it a lot , genuinely the last time I jumped in a game was playing STALKER Call of Pripyat maybe like 8 years ago for the first time and I got lost and wandered into a pit full of mutants that kept jumping out of the walls and attacking me. Haven't had an experience like that since.

A majority of it is fun for a cheap thrill kind of entertainment, I think my big issue is with people trying to put horror on this pedestal as an up and coming prestige genre when there's only a handful of positive examples (picrel)

ben drowned was decent at least but it unfortunately spawned hundreds of uninspired creepypastas in the same vein as it. ie "the cartridge is haunted!"

>>715032694
>Be in some old building and occasionally hear someone coughing close by
>Some tunnels deep underground you can hear what sounds like the distant echoing voices of people

>One inaccessible room has the sound of a rope straining and swinging coming from it
For a game with no enemies Infra can be creepy as fuck. I think that's what makes it so effective, that it's not even a horror game, but there's creepy shit in the darkest abandoned areas nonetheless.

>>715029663
Sincerely a good design for a monster, the angular shape makes it look like it's jumping at you even when it's still. Crazy to think it was just some guy's mall art.

Honestly most creepypastas have shitty endings because its some 14 year old's first piece of writing

>>715045771
>most creepypastas have shitty endings because its some 14 year old's first piece of writing
I'd say that mostly applies to the popular creepypastas, which only got popular in the first place because of fan games which attracted youtube let's play channels with a similar audience of dumb 14 year olds, which of course means they thought, "Oh, this is what creepypastas are supposed to be."

>>715045403
It's hard to explore at night in general because it gets really dark (I think this depends on the moon phase). You can mostly avoid the monsters by just continuously moving. Sometimes they spawn more, sometimes less, I'm not sure why. Might be related to current rift activity. I always carry a hay bed on me.

Is there any good trucking related horror, like maybe spooky euro truck simulator? That's my job and I want to get spooked. I've only heard realistic scary scenarios like truckers getting beaten up if you stop at some areas or people trying to jump on your tray if you slow down through certain towns.

>>715019790

I've had this vague idea of some ARG where you sift through documents, magazines, posters, letters, or basically anything print from the 1920s-1930s America/Europe
It's such a basic idea that I'm sure it must have been done already but I can't find it

The main challenge is being authentic to the typography and style of the era, while depicting something horrifying

>>715047072
I remember someone putting a spooky easter egg in some ETS map where a woman in a certain road would cross the street screaming

>>715047407

everything about the backrooms except the original pasta is shit.
It's not some force of nature, it's government experiments

Robert Eggers seems to be really leaning into generic horror movie shite like dumb jumpscares where big scary screaming face fills the screen. The Witch and The Lighthouse are both 10/10s but I really did not care for this or The Northman

/x/ greentexts are the peak of web horror. They're short, scary and often written in a way that someone could actually believe it. Add to that the fact that they're written anonymously without the author wanting any fame from it.

I don't find creepy imagery scary or creepy. The stuff my mind can come up with, or being put into a headspace where everything is a bit off is more scary than anything a video game or movie could do.
This is why books and audio will always be the superior medium for spooky stuff. There's a reason people go on and on about the soundtrack and audio in horror films especially.

Based list, honestly. SH1 still hits different with the PS1 fog creep and that grainy filter. Penumbra: Overture is also slept on - the way it plays with physics and sound design builds legit tension most modern horror can't touch. And Subnautica? Bro, deepest primal fear vibes. It's not even trying to be horror, but when you're just floating in the void and suddenly hear some ungodly roar in the distance? Pure existential dread. You’re right - if that combo doesn’t get under your skin, you’re basically horror-proof.

I don't think it's technology that's holding Horror back. If the same devs that make horror slop right now had the competence to make VR games they'd just make the same jumpscare streamerbait garbage in VR

>>715029663
Cause it came out like a year and a half ago and there were threads on it enough that jannies started deleting it
Its a good plot (i guess, blanking on a better word) that shows he understands the fundamentals of making the rising action of horror. Good shots, strong visual and auditory design, understands how to build tension without relying on contrivance (almost want to say fuck hitchcock for his 'bomb under the table' metaphor since now every shitty horror writer has the spook just about wrap their hands around the protag's neck from behind them then just fucking disappear for no reason establishing no rules, just fucking with the audience) and knows how to establish effective rules and when to subvert them.

>>715053101
Subnautica had the potential to be really scary and it did have its moments but the leviathan behavior despite being streamer bait was a major detriment. The scariest thing about being deep in open ocean is knowing that huge scary and hungry things are everywhere but
>you can't hear it
>you can't see it in front of your face until it's right on you
you can't see it at all behind you, or above you, or below you.
The reapers roar to announce their presence, they're visible from a mile away, they're in predictable areas with predictable routes, and they do not immediately kill you when they attack your sub or seamoth.

Below Zero is not even worth mentioning outside of insults of course, it's a travesty that the series had some real potential but the devs took all the worst parts of the original game and highlighted them instead of what was actually fun and scary about it.

>>715044498
There are effectively two types of horror people can feel.

The first is nothing more than a primal instinctual response telling you to get away from danger. Alot of the lower brow sort of horror is aiming for this because people just want to feel that instinct sometimes for whatever reason but not everyone enjoys that or really feels thoose instincts as strongly. Plus regardless of how much such a thing affects you, ultimately the rational side of your brain knows that your not actually in any danger, and the feeling is fleeting.

The second emotion horror can invoke in you is a way more deep feeling of true helplessness, its this idea that even with a rational brain and logically working through all possible emotions, something terrible will still happen or has happened and nothing you do can ever stop it. The real world has this all the time, and our choice to express it in art might be some complex way of us learning to cope or deal with it. Most people are scared of death because the concept of disappearing into nothingness with no way to do anything about it is horrifing to people, which is why most major religions are based around the idea of there being something after, which your actions now somehow changing it for the better or worse. Regardless of if you believe in one or not, its clear that theres this human idea of fairness that the universe doesnt hold itself to, and this emotion is just to deal with the unfairness of it all.

Most of the horror that is considered high brow like the exorcist or even something like silent hill 2 manages to invoke both emotions at once. The exorcist is about a scary demon monster on a surface level which ties in the first feeling of fear, but on a deeper level its about faith, questioning the fairness that something so horrible could happen to an innocent child, second guessing if anything in this life really matters, if there really is something after to look forward to.

More horror should do both.

>>715033202
>They're also not easily transcribed to the gaming medium, unfortunately
Pretty much it. Old tank controls-fixed (or stiff) camera angle games could control the exact shot you were getting in every single room to completely curate your experience and expectations. When you lose that you lose a lot of the ability to build a proper sense of dread which is why a lot of modern horror has to rely on cheaper bullshit.

>>715052201

>>715053407
This is why ARK is so scary, my first time in the ocean was pretty chill then i noticed some blurry shapes in the distance assuming them to be fish i ignore and go back to looking for crude oil

>>715053041
that's because all they did was describe a horrible death with zero weight. When all you do is type out the most edgy stuff you can think of but you can't write a story that's worth a shit, then yeah people will just say youre a schizo loser.

In the average dnd game at level you roll a d20, you add +2 then a simple modifier, and for damage its the damage die and your modifier.

Thats 1 dice and 2 numbers to hit, 2 dice and 4 numbers for hitting and damage. That's basic addition. You're dumber than an african child you actual nigger, even they can handle this, you're dumber than a ghetto kid.

original rust is still the scariest game i've played
running back from a loot run and heading grass footsteps ahead of you off to the side... all the gear you've spent the last 45 minutes finding is now at peril
waking up to your base with footsteps outside; the house you and your friends laboured hours over is now at siege and this is the quiet before the storm

>>714993540
Yes
Earrape and shitty stories with stupid characters is retarded

Just recently played layers of fear, which I thought had some really good imagery. The game sucks and isn't really scary, being just a walking sim with no fail states, but the paintings and various effects and designs are really good.

Cry of Fear is still the scariest game I have ever played, but I haven't played all that many horror games. Condemned: Criminal Origins, FNaF, and maybe a few others I'm forgetting. Infra was so boring that I refunded it. 2dshit does not scare me.

>>715049721
( >>715033202 anon) Losing control of yourself or the situation around you while remaining conscious about it. Time loops/situations where you're locked in a place with no possible way out (even death) are horrifying. Stuff like dementation or having your mind be slowly erased by a tool or an entity something while the only things you can do is contemplate how your mom will cradle you like a baby for the rest of your/her life. Incurable preventable diseases like rabies, some Russian anon had a post on an imageboard that described him having late stage rabies without him knowing what it is and it's still one of the more horrible things i've read. Degenerative nerve diseases. I'm a BFS guy and waiting for it to be confirmed as BFS and not whatever Stephen Hawking had was one of the more nerve-wracking experiences of my life. I used to be afraid of apocalypse events a lot when I was a kid. Now I can't be bothered to learn about them, so that one has receded. I wonder how big the doomsday fearer-hypochondriac pipeline is. The Caretaker doesn't do much for me, I like his earlier albums like Selected Memories from the Haunted Ballroom more. September 1939 is a very accurate audio recreation of a time i almost passed out from a lack of air/hydration. I've checked a timeloop pasta i liked when i used to be an avid reader of pastas and it still does the thing for me.

>>715063047
posts like this are so depressing, the knowledge that people only play the most surface level shit and never branch out, and they post here
i'm not trying to insult you but it's so sad that you're what would consider yourself a hobbyist and you essentially only play call of duty and fifa

>>715063291
No offense taken, but I'm not sure I consider myself a horror game hobbyist. I definitely don't play them very often. Also the "knownness" of a game doesn't diminish its positive qualities.

>>715062419
Do you fucking hear yourself? Does 'roll a D20 then add the plus two carry the 3 add 2 modifier roll for damage add the modifier' sound exciting for ANYONE? It makes sense for wargames because there's a strategic element fielding armies and divisions and shit but for an adventurer fighting monsters, boiling down what should be a visceral and pulse-pounding experience to dicerolls and math is some kind of soul-stifling dystopian nightmare shit. Imagine reducing the tales of Hercules and Beowulf and King Arthur to fucking dice rolls and cold dead mathematics while some theatre kid nerd talks in a funny accent. Thank God video games were invented, tabletop slop should have gone the way of the dodo right afterwards.

Playing Black Ops Zombies with the voice volume turned off can be a little unsettling. It mutes both the characters and the zombies so you have utter and complete silence except for the footsteps and ambient sounds

>>715049721
I’ve never felt more fear than I have when I’m confronted by love. I’m afraid of the consequences that love brings; I fear getting too close to someone again; I fear losing the ones I already have; I’m afraid of those who come to love me without my knowledge; I’m afraid of hurting them, and I’m afraid of being hurt—again.

I often think that I would prefer to face any other fear—whether it’s a monster or the fear of my own death—than to feel unending grief once more. No phantom or ghost has haunted me more than love; It grips me like a grudge, reminding me everyday to cherish my life as it promises to take everything away from me in the end.

There are two levels to this. First, no one can really die here. (almost) Every NPC is canonically immortal due to body restoration being as cheap as a GPU. You can just kill some people over and over again to make their company stocks rise so you can sell them once a better one comes in. You are not an exception. Once you die, you lose your soul, and lose 500 dollars per death until you're demoted to a free reconstruction option that just turns you into some sort of a recombining meat soup. Some doors are locked behind having a soul, and you can recover it in two places: either at the end of the "normal" run or in a secret starting spot by setting resolution to 640x480.
Second, there is a bigger current to this. The world was invaded by three celestial beings since time immemorial, who have undone death and have set the rules for the world's transfer of resources. The game just looks like that because there really is nothing else to do under their influence except killing and accumulating money. "Normal" run has you defeat the Demiurge only to find out that the world beyond is just a bigger, even flatter prison than before. You have to harness death and find a way to replace your soul with a much sharper thing in order to break out. Second ending involved accumulating over 1 million dollars in stocks, finding a weapon that is powered by it and killing a guardian to find yourself at the top of the chain. Yet, you're still the biggest pig in this spiritual slaughterhouse. The "true" ending has you complete every secret level as well to find out that there is a source of all of this, and you travel to some spiritually negative landscape, descend to it and terminate this false worldlife forever before recreating a world here life and death are restored to their normal function ("the golden age"). However, life itself will have to recover for a long, long, long time.

You need to have a child-like imagination to enjoy this sorry. When the dice rolls you have to imagine what that means.
>some theatre kid nerd
Don't take it so seriously. It's fun doing stupid voices and making dumb characters who come up with implausible ways out of situations. Actual theatre kids would be annoying because they'd want you to take it seriously and try do an emotional scene or something.

>>715049721
The vastness of space is pretty scary. Not in the "I'm going to scream and shit my pants" sense, but in a "I can't even fathom this shit and everything that's out there (and in turn how much nothing there also is) and I feel paralysed by the thought".
Another would be the concept of ego death or turning into an "other". I can accept the idea of death in general, that one's life must come to an end eventually, but the idea of one's life continuing but you becoming something/someone else with no continuity with your current state of mind is somehow really unsettling despite how irrational it sounds when put into words. I mean, it can hardly even happen unless you're somehow hit with total amnesia.

This and just plain wacky shit would make trucking games kino. I think there is definitely a market for a trucking/driving sim games where driving is just a means to experience shit and not to reach a destination for the most part. I guess it could be subversive a little but by starting off as a normal trucking game and then its basically random event after random event. I would love those types of driving games more of they had things like a huge library of cryptids running arond in the dark, seeing drug deals go wrong in gas stations, cop chased, staying at seedy motels during long drives, car jacking attempts, literally whatever

Its never carry the three and add 2 modifier roll. It's simply something you realize is a d20 then your total mod which you memorize early, and then you're off. You're literally too stupid to understand the gambling of dice and the narration of the GM alongside the roleplay of the table creating the stakes and the will to survive and the inevitable social games within, you're simply too stupid to get it. Which is a good thing, we have enough retards in this circle already and another one would just be another pisser in the pool.

Go on with your slop, its ok if you can't do third grade math or understand a social game or to enjoy an organic story. Some people are destined to eat shit.

It's funny you say that because DnD tries to be a shitty half-wargame if you don't do theatre of the mind. I'm sure that's the only tabletop you've actually played as well, if you've even played that. Other anon is correct though, the hobby has become inundated with retards so it's better if you don't bother.

>>715070764
do tabletop losers really see themselves like this? You are a bunch of retarded nerds sitting around a table jerking each other off, you are not engaging in some Nietzschean struggle or upholding the sacred tradition of storytelling inherited from our caveman ancestors around the firepit.

Shit like this is where the people doing this get high off their own farts and can't just let a setting breathe.

Only because it's all safe bullshit that doesn't even remotely try to be truly grim or dark.
Horror and spookiness are not respected as two separate things anymore.

Horror is when merely thinking about a concept fills you with dread, which horror games fail to do by and large.
Spookiness is when the big slimy meat monster yells at you and looks all yucky n stuff gross haha

>>715070125
What the fuck

>>715071181
Not him but it's just a group of people coming together to enjoy themselves in a medium that requires more imagination and cooperation than a lot of people are capable of. There's no anticheat kernel rootkit to tell you that you can't just try to stab a town guard, just an unwritten understanding between you and your buds that if you do that then you'll probably all be killed and the collaborative story you've all been enjoying with these particular characters ends in a stupid and anticlimactic way. It's between you and your friends to decide if that's the sort of time you want to have. The upside is that you can do a shitton more than you ever could in elder scrolls or whatever vidya RPG that comes to mind if you engage with the setting and the other people at the table. It's very enjoyable and makes for memorable moments with friends, it doesn't have to be a self-jerkoff sacred thing like you want to paint.
Some people are just too dull for it though, and you're one of them. People who get bored when they don't get to be the main character who can reload a quicksave after doing something retarded, and eventually just start killing things for any reason or doing dumb shit instead of working towards everyone at the table having fun.

Scary games only work when you are young, I remember shitting my pants at Doom 3 and dropping it right after the demonic invasion when I was 10, then I picked up again when I was 14 and it wasn't scary anymore.

>>715072475
Many of them do write in my experience and depending on the game there is a lot of actual text-on-page writing involved in its own right, but you don't care and you're not really seeking information here. You're just clawing at something to downplay a hobby you yourself don't enjoy.

>>715072456
Yeah I'm like 90% certain I read that somewhere in an interview he had done. I have a lot of respect for that sort of effort and the lengths the guy went through. The giant monster guy is something from the mall that he recreated, he seemed to actually have a vision for what he was doing with his shit so I give him a lot more credit than other horror that doesn't think itself through in as interesting a way.

>>714993716
This. I remember reading Girls Last Tour I think and while riding along the empty and derelict streets of whatever stratum they found themselves on an out of nowhere the panel cuts to a lit cigarette on the ground.

They basically are only one of them is an actual monster who enjoys getting humans to become cannibals

>>715074839
He's a rotting plague-based guy who sleeps in dirt, if he looked like a prettyboy it would be stupid. He looked like a dirty piece of shit and should have, it makes his supernatural powers of attraction as a vampire more clear because nobody would actually want someone who looks like you shot a porn director and then raised his body from the dead 5 weeks later. A lot of people would want to get with Edward Cullen or Dracula, but this guy is a disgusting piece of shit because he spreads disease.
She fucks the monster and dies for it, along with most of the town so that the rest of the town didn't die. If she wanted to do that or enjoyed it then I'd see peoples point because other retards has said the same thing but the vampire basically made her have sex at gunpoint and then she died anyway.

I've noticed a lpt of indie "horror" games nowadays just seem to the creator's thinly veiled fetishes

>>715076014
If you mind-control a person into having sex with them then yeah it's rape. You just don't notice as much with physically attractive antagonists because you could look at them and thing that someone would reasonable want to have sex with them anyway but the guy in the Nosferatu movie looks disgusting. In Nosferatu the main chick resists the powers of temptation and Nosferatu just starts killing her friends and the whole town she grew up in until she surrenders to him. In that respect it's not really mind-control rape, it's "have sex with me or I'll kill you and everyone you love".

>>715077383
Lucy only marries one man, and the suitors note that super slutty vampire Lucy acts nothing like the real one. Mina and Jonathan are also super devoted to each other, to the point that Jonathan is willing to turn into a vampire if Mina turns.

the tradition in old fashioned horror just makes it really hard for me to find any creepiness in it. I'm not saying it's lame or I hate it necessarily, when the background of something is strongly tinged by jesus and god and church it's just not something I associate at all with being scary, there's too much authority to rely on.

>>715079810
That’s a wild take, anon. So I guess by that logic Jonathan’s weak moments in the castle make him a whore too? The whole theme is about temptation, resistance, and redemption. Mina didn’t "give in," she was cursed-literally infected-and still kept fighting. That’s not whoredom, that’s gothic horror Catholic metaphor fuel.

The best kind of horror is fast things running at you over long distances.

Growth that never seems to stop.
Giantess of course, but absurd stuff like hourglass can be done well at times.
IRL the Blob and that premise is a movie that really hits at a deep fear.

>>715082413
If we're taking it literally (eg. it's supernatural satan vampire magic) then no she's not a whore since it's literally not under her actual control what happened, but if we're taking the metaphor straight like you guys were (which is generally ill-advised, a metaphor isn't exactly the same as the thing it references) then it's basically "Mina resisted her lust until she gave in at the last minute, and she wasn't happy that she was engaging in wanton adultery but was still doing it." In which case yeah, that's a whore alright, regretful cheating is still cheating.

>>715082973
That is, "this is literally what it is" vs. "it's what it's a metaphor for."

>>715073616
>Filtered by a movie even women can understand
grim

>>715082973
But Mina never gives in, if we're talking about the books. She would rather die than turn into a vampire, and she makes sure that all of the party members promise to kill her if she does succumb to it. She also helps a lot in ensuring Dracula dies.

>>715074839

>>714993540
Horror is just an extremely difficult genre to do right because it rely on a not so common emotion in western society that is fear.
Fear is mainly born from the unknown and in the age of information and mass media where everyone is aware of what is happening at the other side of the world it's hard to make humans fear the unknown, also the widespread of pocket cameras made things like serial killers or cryptids simply disappear in the 21th century.
Horror cinema is probably the medium that nails horror the most because it is both highly immersive yet not under the audience control, this is why a lot of horror movies made cinema like the ring, the thing, exorcist, shining, halloween, elm street.
For example horror in anime is 99% absolutely fucking terrible because the medium inherently too goofy and not immersive enough to convey real horror sensation, the top3 most popular anime are tokyo ghoul, parasyte and another and they are all equally gorefest garbage.
Horror video games do not work because the player has control over the universe, you can't be scared of outlast if you can just pause the game at any point. Something like RE cannot be scary anymore even after 7 reboot because it is too included within an IP people have too much knowledge of.
Horror isn't a bad genre it's just a genre where 95% is bad and 5% if the cream of the crop.

>>715083479
The nocturnal visits are the acts of infidelity, becoming a vampire is simply giving over completely to sin with no redemption.

>>715084508
Anon, that was rape.
This metaphor also falls apart when you remember that Jonathan was willing to become a vampire with Mina

>>715052205
the pure horror smiling man: the scariest thing that you've NEVER seen..

>>715084508
Dracula barges into her room and quite forwardly forces her to suck him off. It's not a romantic nightly tryst with blushing and hand-holding, it's a full on fuckin rape and Satanic sacrament. Also if you can find the audiobook read by Christopher Lee I highly recommend it because the way he reads that scene going from Mina's weeping voice to Dracula's ice cold demeanor is a real testament to what a truly kino actor he was.

>>715070951

Yeah I don't disagree, they should have leaned into it harder at the end. I get the reasoning why he would appear as such in act one but at least by act 3 he should be more monstrous as he casts off what little he cared for disguise. It could have made for more interesting camera angles in act 1 where he was getting the guy to sign if he had some of that monstrous visage just out of sight.

Most of the time analog horror is just
>teenager has one of those absolute dogshit lost episode or exe creepypasta playing in the background while doing other things and barely listens to it
>autoplay shuffles into a skinwalker greentext that's completely removed from the people on this site who were into those stories 13 years ago that again they're barely paying attention to
>teen gets it in his head that "old thing is scary" because boomer/gen x/millennial bad and combines the first vhs overlay he can find with the Free Transform tool on a picture of a white dude in a suit
I have a soft spot for those ritual creepypasta, even if 95% of creepypasta out there suffered from the same issues that plague modern analog horror

Mothered is pretty increddible.
Uncanny valley to the max, incredible aesthetics, great graphics. Has been impressed by it a lot more than any other modern horror/analogslop.

This thread is blessed. Maybe I should give horror another chance. seems like there is some decent recent stuff.

>>715053456
I agree with you that existential dread and meaningless suffering and inescapable helplessness is the most scary thing irl and in artworks or film. Moreso than any scary looking special effect.

Explain this. I went to the channel that this video is from and the only thing on him was the one video which doesnt mention anything about japanese people or prisoners of war

ITT: Games with creepy imagery - my answer is, of course, my peanus weenus :D

hahaha!

a few years ago I saw a video linked here that wasn't a game, but like a mockup or proof-of concept of an analog horror game.
All I remember was first-person turn-based battles against pngs of body horror creatures with photo backdrops of nasty abandoned hallways and rooms.
The UI was kinda like old 80s-90s broadcast TV graphics. Like the kind of panels and numbers you'd see on news and weather stations.

>>714993540
Horror has historically been popular so it is inherently going to have significantly more bad than good. Combine that with the fact that it's just as subjective as comedy.

>>715069150
not really, no
it's weird because you'd think this was targeted solely at godzilla fans, but as one i can't possibly take the idea of a haunted suit seriously
was the suit still haunted when it was doing the funny moon dance? or going 'HEY ANGILA', or outrunning a black hole, or any number of very not-scary things godzilla has been a part of

>>715113987
This is what pure horror is. No cheap jumpscares or gratuitous gore. Just pure dread.

edit: thanks for all the likes, internets!

>>715114841
You'd think a Godzilla horror would try to build more off of the kind of shit Shin was about/represents, or maybe a horror-focused spin on GMK's take.

yeah i get it

>>715115015
i've seen twitter artists try their hand at (not really scary but) horror-esque godzilla designs of their own making, and at least they're usually a little cool looking instead of just MS paint-ing over the eyes

>>715049721
i remember the first time i saw the obey the walrus video, i thought it was some sort of mannequin at first, i miss feeling like that, nowadays ghost videos or paranormal footage in youtube are all unwatchable slop or youtuber's investigation.

I it's not a horror video and just some random house, but are there any games with this aesthetic?

at one point 9 minutes in there's some japanese on screen that translate to the real nickname of a guy who tortured american prisoners of war in brutal ways, got off scot free and later expressed no regrets iirc.

There have been quite a few fan projects like that. They usually delve more into body horror.

>>714990486 (OP)
kill yourself with a screwdriver, fuck you, none of that shit is scary.

this shit is mogged by this >>715116429 so hard it's unreal. genuinely it would have been scarier without the statue thing and also the guy's acting dipped in quality pretty hard at several points. i guess there was a greater point to it than being "scary" though.
impressive visuals aside i don't get the obsession. thanks for reading my blog.

>>714990486 (OP)
Even if it's never shown in it's full glory the implications of a springlock failure are horrifying. Easily one of the worst ways to go out.

The problem is that the author of this thing is a immature twat that can't handle criticism
In the right hands Godzilla horror can be very effective but if you have incompetent teens making it then of course you will something that isn't really remarkable

>>715119327
how old are you? i respect that you like it but i suspect this is some sort of generational divide. i've noticed that younger people engage with horror media in a unique way that i'd like to talk about in the future, but i gotta know if i'm full of shit first or not.
