Has a video game ever scared you? As a kid? Or even recently?
>>729209023Yes
Games don't scare me.>yeah, okay tuff guyNo, seriously. It's even gotten me in trouble before.>Female: "Hey anon, is this game scary?">Me: "Pffft, what, Silent Hill 3? Naaaah, that game's fine. I quite liked it in fact."2 weeks later>Her: "WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU DON'T EVER TALK TO ME AGAIN!!!">Me : "...whoops."
>>729209023my kid self was such a bitch toward anything horror, every time I remember I cringe at it. fucking inuyasha spooked me. blade the vampire hunter, courage the dog, etcbut in a twist of fate, I've grown to love horror media. been playing amnesia the bunker and I'm sure a couple of the scares it gave me will stay with me for a while
>>729209023only jump scares get me, i can't immerse enough to get scared by anything that's not real
>>729210152Jumpscares are not scary, they're startling. There's a huge difference.
>start playing Project Zomboid with friends>we all make a pact to go in as blind as possible>play on a server almost every night for a few weeks>rules are set to resemble classic zombie logic - Romero rules>one day when only the server owner and I are online we go to Louisville for the first time>it's foggy>we don't go into the gates, just stay outside and plan the first run>out of the corner of the screen we see a human silhouette, crouched behind the gate>it crouch walks off and disappears>"please tell me you saw that too">zombies aren't supposed to do that>we both lose our shit and drive back to base>later>whole group is on>we've pushed past the hospital and into Louisville proper>it's night time>raiding a gun store next to a liquor store>a lone zombie crouch walks down an alley, bites one of us, and crouch walks away>We all freak out and end the run early to drive backI still never got a proper explanation for it. We were playing with some mods on, but unless one of them added in a croucher variant, I'm stumped for explanations. Also got jumpscared when we sat down and watched the entire Dog Goblin series.
>resident evil 2>twisted metal: black>the first five nights at freddy's (I was drunk and it was brand new)
