You can't, no one likes being scared.

lol so true
but undertale and deltarune are barely even horror

Imagine the effort and anger it took to make this image, and then realize what a waste of human life this board is

>how to fix horror

Stop pretending Silent Hill has ever been anything but boring trash with shitty banjo music.

genuine question what are good horror games?
i've barely delved into the genre

Why did you take another board's bait image and then modify it for Yea Forums?
That was a rhetorical question.

alright

Was this about movies originally

>implying video games are scary

The disgusting shit is there, but Outlast 2 is plenty scary on it's own, I feel.

Dead Space

this image is just retarded and offers no examples of "non-onions" horror so what is the fucking point? it should be named idontlikething.png

>undertale
>horror

How do you expect anyone to take this list seriously when your first entry makes no sense?

LISA isnt a horror game, whoever made this list needs to cut their arm off.

This.

/thread

yeah thats true, but every disgusting shit is there, its like actually horrorifying
you have rape, gore, body horror, pregnancy and dead infants
and hell, even STD, imagine that shit, STD and its fucking disgusting

It's clearly a bait image, even more than the one it's based off of.

bout six months.

You gotta realize your life isn't a tragedy. It's a comedy.

>undertale

Your list already sucks

The fuck are you talking about?

These are some random nudes on Celeb jihad

those are kinda nice, would suck

back to

Yes. Like nearly every meme of Yea Forums it's just a copy and paste from Yea Forums, /fit/, Yea Forums or Yea Forums. You'd think the most active board could come up with it's own content but I guess video games really do ruin your brain.

Keep trying to cover your tracks, bro. I bet she wouldn’t be happy to know what you’re posting here. Screenshot already :^)

>jumpscares are a shitty way to do horror

this has literally been reddits opinion for years

I HOPE the new janitors starts hammering down these garbage Op's with shitty DISCORD and resetera made baits

Attached: 1567973797773.png (690x670, 122K)

when the game consists of only jumpscares it is pretty shitty
I played far cry 5 and there was some jumpscares here and there, but it wasnt just me walking around looking to be scared, the setting was amazing. Shit, the setting was so good that more than once i got scared at an animal just dropping out of nowhere
it happened once and i was scared to see it again

this is the worst bait i have ever seen

Depends on your definition of horror. For example, Resident Evil focuses more on keeping the player in a constant state of tension in the pre-4 games, which is why micromanaging is an important part of their gameplay.
On the other hand, Silent Hill is more focused on scaring the play psychologically (hence the term, Psychological Horror) and is more of an experience.
I recommend you play both series in release order. Don't play remakes over the originals.
Silent Hill 1 is PSX exclusive, so it requires emulation. If you own a PS3/P/Vita however, it can be purchased for $5.
Most of the RE series is available on the PS3 for $5-$10, or it can be emulated. I suggest against using the PC versions, as up until RE5, all of them have issues, in particular the early ports of RE1-3. RE2 and 3 got better ports, but they were nippon exclusive. CVX didn't get a port.
Oh yeah, Silent Hill 2-4 have perfectly working PC versions, just require a bit of port grease. Requesting the Silent Hill on PC copypasta.

It’s too full of Japanese puzzle autism to beat without a walkthrough. I thought it was worth it though

>tries to fit in by making fun of Discord Trannies
>posts a Wojack edit

What’s next, ebin Facebook froggo? Fuck off back to your social media meme pages, Normie.

Imagine actually spending time making that image.

>doesn't recognize rage comics, which is what Wojack and Pepe have now turned into
Not him, but it's obvious what the image is going for.

yeah...

seethe more retard, you crossboarding meme will be deleted soon.

It needs to have good flow with tension and interesting puzzles that don't bog down the flow.

Imagine bumping a shitty bait thread

lol so true

Agggh. I hate this game so much! I hear the sequel is better and I just got a modded PS2.

Siren 1 is "do precisely this, or die" each and every mission! It's like the game is "Siren: Tactical Shibito Stealth Action."

The atmosphere, graphics, and music are A++ though. I think I'd rather get bodied by Kuon's absurdly punishing resource scarcity, ultimately.

Wow, this is the worst bait image I've ever seen. Good job.

Nobody said “invented by Reddit”, you scitzo. Ladies and Lads, the mind of a Reddit Froggo poster.

>Resident Evil focuses more on keeping the player in a constant state of tension in the pre-4 games, which is why micromanaging is an important part of their gameplay
With the tension it creates with the limited resources it hands out to the player, the players themselves are asking "will I make it through to the next safe room? will I survive?", thus feeling camaraderie with the character they're playing as. This oppressive feeling of death being near with every step you take is actually why it's called "survival horror". The main source of horror is the fear of death the player shares with the character.

You have to be 18

Penumbra: Overture
special commendation to Eternal Darkness

To me personally Killer 7 is legitimately the scariest game I've ever played despite being action heavy because:

1) The enemies are all invisible until you do a scan to see them and to do so is a process of entering first person after seeing things from a fixed camera angle
2) You hear practically every single enemy before you see them which means you need to be listening intently or else be caught off guard
3) Nearly every single enemy in the game has one plan of attack which is to kamakazi you while screaming and laughing

It is a game predicated on jump-scares but done better than anyone else who has ever used them.

Little surprised Majora's Mask didn't make that list either considering the multiple dark themes.

SIlent hill 1, fatal frame 1 and 2.
Amnesia was a really good game for me. I know Amnesia was the beginning of all those walking simulators games like Slender and so on, but the setting is so good that i cant just pass on. Penumbra 1 and 2 were pretty good too.

As for more action, i really liked Re2 and remake2, re1 was too much puzzle, re3 was too much action (although i loved nemesis)

Only legitimate scary games I played were the Fatal Frame trilogy, and PT. I don't know why PT is even in that image because it was spooky and ambient as fuck. That shit with the guy on the radio was genius (probably Del Toro's idea)

To date the most enjoyable spooky times in games were games that didn't focus on the spook.
VTMB and Subnautica are the first two to come to mind. Hat in Time had one level that scared my wife so bad she had to come outside and chill with me while I finished chopping firewood.

What fucking retards are you arguing with that this image was necessary, user?
Not everything mildly surreal and occasionally creepy/offputting/dark is "horror".
