I like safe haven areas in vidya – small comfy places amidst hostile environments. Like snugly well illuminated save rooms in some dingy godforsaken shitholes, or cozy lodges during snowstorms, or secure item fountain rooms amidst tough-going levels. They’re often accompanied by calming elements like soft music or warm lighting that contrast with the chaos outside, which makes them very comfy.
Sometimes there’s just a room without any particular purpose where the enemies don’t attack you. In real life, I’d just stay in that room and refuse to move forward.

This but until it makes me depressed and insane

why?

>>719410534
Because I'm afraid of what the future brings and I'm comfortable in my mind-and-body prison.
Because my made-up ennemies can't attack me (they still can, they are inside me).
Because I thought it would make her go back to me.

Fear and Hunger 2 has PRHVL Bop, a little speakeasy that the contestants find and can be relocated to if you recruit them, and it's a very comfy reprieve from all the horror stuff. Lots of great character moments and interactions happen here. Sadly it's not 100% safe as if you take too long some characters can leave and get moonscorched, and one of the characters who's a cook crumbles under pressure and poisons everyone present on Day 3, killing them. It's easily avoidable as that's quite late in a playthrough and you can win a run far earlier than that.

Dead Aim has my favorite save room theme and I never even played that game. The slowed versions on youtube are even better. Maximum comfy vibes.

Similar vibes to a safe/save room

Absolutely. There’s just something primal about retreating to a flickering oil lamp-lit room with a box to put your junk in and that one track you’ve now heard 87 times but still associate with peace and safety. Kinda hits like sitting around a campfire in the middle of nowhere.

DS1's Firelink Shrine, RE2’s item box rooms, or even the safe houses in STALKER with the radio playing - all scratch the same neuro itch. That microcosm of calm in the shitstorm amplifies just how bad things are out there.

Also, big plus when there's a character quietly tending to something mundane inside. Makes it feel like people can still live, not just survive.

What would have happened if every single RE protag decided to stay in the first save room they found, and just wait until help arrived?

Drowned God has one of these. It's just a point-and-click adventure game, but the rest of the levels are weird as hell, so I think it counts.
