basically title, i want more horror games to add to my backlog of horror games i will never play since im a fucking PANSY
bonus points for games that rely on atmosphere rather than jump scares
1,000,000 bonus points to
Spoiler:
whoever agrees to play cry of fear with my autistic self since ive always wanted to play it but all my steam friends are even bigger pansies than me
im downloading scp containment breach right now, ill post my backlog of horror later tonight and you guys tell me which to prioritize
im also probably gonna shell out for killing floor 2 when it inevitably goes on sale soon since i liked the original and my friends play it
Darkwood is a pretty good game, more dreary atmosphere and an oppressive environment and no retarded jumpscares.
SCP:CB has gotten a lot more stable in the last year, and last I played I could run it at around 60 FPS without crashing. I'd give it a shot, especially since its free. Jumpscares galore sadly.
Machine for Pigs is scary until you realize how dumb the AI is and how you can run through entire levels. The first half of that game was so spoopy but then I realized I could shift+W entire levels and the second half took me under two hours to complete.
Dying light is scary only in how horrifyingly shitty the early game is and how terrifyingly awful the end of the campaign is.
Play Penumbra Black Plague, that one gets some spoopy.
A good really cheap indie spook is "Anatomy" by KittyHorrorshow. Slow buildup of spook, the game equivalent of a perfect B movie.
Games don't feel to spooky though.
Leora Fleebish is every bad part of me stuffed into a 32x32 sprite.
ive heard a lot about anatomy and i might try it, also im realizing now that playing cdda with the audio is actually kind of spoopy, hearing the background wails and sirens while fighting zeds really brings in the unease even if its an otherwise unscary game
also pkp your new avatar gives me a headache pls stop

Darkwood is fucking amazing and it’s a damn crime it’s not more popular.

Qbmax32 is quite literally one of the dumbest individuals I have ever had the misfortune of coming into contact with. He has zero redeemable traits, and honestly I have to suppress my gag reflex every time he shows up in a conversation.

Here's a rebuttal: you're literally in a customer service slash celebrity position. Volunteer or not.

SOMA is very good, a horror game from the creators of Penumbra and Amnesia. If you don't like getting chased by monsters it has a Safe Mode that approaches the game from "what would all these monsters do if they were docile?", which lets you focus more on the narrative and atmosphere of the game. It still has plenty of mindfuck left even without the aggressive AI.

Setting the tool box, now bloodied, back on the table; I went to heal myself with a medkit. I clubbed myself in the head with that too.
I've come a long ways from asking how to switch hands.

The HoP just toolboxes someone to death out of nowhere, then gets speared by a chemist who saw him murder a guy, then the chemist gets beaten to death because someone else saw him kill the HoP.
Tele-man somehow dies and gets its looted by an atmos tech who managed to use it to send two nuke ops to lavaland, who were then surrounded by several very angry people from earlier and some extra golems on top of it.
Captain dies, gets cloned/revived, lasers the guy holding the disk into crit to take it back.
Some idiot tries to welderbomb the AI hiding out at mining for no discernible reason.
Two permabans and a dayban, i'm expecting a snarky appeal from one of them soon. What the fuck.

but it isn't SCARY except when you're in the evil DARK OCEAN SPOOKY SEGMENTS otherwise it's just a body horror movie. It's better Sci Fi than it is horror.
Unironicaly though Subnautica is scarier than SOMA simply due to the scale of the game and the speed at which the Leviathans move. Combine that with the stakes (your whole inventory) when you die, and you're a hell of a lot more scared of that ocean spookum than you are of SOMA's spookums that just make you restart their specific segment. I know I sound like an asshole about this but most horror spoopygames have no sense of consequence or drawback, such that actually getting caught by the spookum has no drawbacks. In Soma, I was purposely running up to the monsters just so I could have a closer look at their models, since I knew them catching me would just bounce me back to the beginning of said monster's segment.
Leora Fleebish is every bad part of me stuffed into a 32x32 sprite.
it's almost like scary is largely subjective, I nearly shit my pants on quite a few occasions in SOMA
ironically Subnautica prepared me for most of the agoraphobia that you get near/in the abyss so those sections weren't all that scary to me, but god damn I do not want to play through Theta again
