I feel like I’ve played a good amount of horror titles, and I find I don’t really get scared much anymore.

What are some titles that scared you the most? I would love to hear your recommendations!

    Yeah, I thought it was pretty okay! I ended up getting about halfway through, I think? I got caught by the monster a couple of times when he randomly decided to pop up, and I somewhat shifted from “this is spooky” to “I’m just avoiding this road block”

    It’s super tricky because I don’t know how to keep myself immersed in the experience for a lot of these titles.

    I did enjoy the fact that they tried something new with the bunker. I thought it was probably the closest I got to being scared since the Dark Descent, so I think that says something for sure.

    I think I’ve been exposed to too much horror, which might have dulled the experience somewhat. I really enjoy hearing about what/why people enjoyed horror games, so I don’t think your point was moot! I think horror is a very unique genre that pushes game design to its extremes in a lot of ways.
