Realising enemies respawn in System Shock 2
>>377534352
Yeah fuck those exploding robots.
>>377534102
Pain is scary.
>>377534352
Oh fuck, System Shock 2 scared me when I first played it.
>Cargo section where you go through a maze of crates and exploding robots. Then do it again.
>Those Robot-Human hybrid nurses with those chewed off faces. The ghost vision and the doctor's tapes only made it worse.
>Super arachnophobic, so spiders were the worst for me. Hell, the spider trap made me pause the game once it happened.
>>377532995
I don't understand why people pretend to be scared by Literally Nothing Happens: The Game.

And? Nothing happened. Does the shaky person ever actually do anything? Is there anything Michael J Fox can do that can cause a game over or anything? No? Okay then.

the mission in Halo:CE where you get introduced to the flood was probably the most scared i've been playing a video game
doom 3 was pretty spooky too
>>377536949
>He's very gentle
>but, ya'know... be careful, he might eat you
People say the hotel or grouts mansion is scarier but this part always fucks my shit up hard
>>377540203
This level was so good they wrote articles about it.
It could have been its own game.

Once she's made contact with you, making any sharp movements will cause her to snap your neck.
You basically have to calmly finish the segment without turning around or jerking the camera.
It's not difficult, but that never was the point of a horror game.
>>377531173
Morrowind six house bases still scare me to this day.
Also pic related faggots are pretty scary in the dark.
>>377531173
I think we all know the true answer.
It'd be a tie between most of Alien Isolation and pic related, that keyhole scare was just cheating
And on top of it the part when you're in that corridor with cells full of those fucking monsters and the doors open...
I think the worst offender isdon't look behind you.
>>377540575
I wonder if they purposedly tried to mimick the uncanny feeling from the ending of Monkey Island 2. Both games end in a certaon not-bad-ending-but-not-really-happy-either way that left me with a weird feeling when I was a kid.
Anything related to deep water in video games
-Subnautica. All of it.
-The sharks and the deep trench in Far Cry 3
-Nessie in Wizardry 8
-Dreugh in Morrowind
-Being anywhere near or in the sea in GTA
Fuck all of it.
Made me drop the controller.

>>377540002
The archaic sound makes it a lot more creepy than it should be. This is otherwise underwhelming.
>>377541239
>When you get so far out in Subnautica and it's just pitch black forever.
I don't think i've ever felt more uneasy than that in a game.
The music, the text, the images.
I don't think there has ever been a harsher game over.
>>377541239
Shit that stuff bothers me IRL too. Can swim in swimming pools just fine but afraid of deep water. I'm not getting a panic attack but I feel uneasy and scared.
>ITT people act like horror games are the scariest when the actual scariest things in life are ideas and unexpected despair which most horror games fail to do.
Light hearted games with a horrifying part > horror games
>>377535987
>>Super arachnophobic, so spiders were the worst for me. Hell, the spider trap made me pause the game once it happened.
i had to pause on that also and i am not arachnophobic

>learned the event only triggers if you enter the room from the opposite side
>only ever take the broken door exit in the adjacent room to return to the Main Hall
Well that's disappointing.
only real RE fans will know why this is scary

The morgue in Singularity. I did not sign up for that shit.
>>377542964
I never found it that scary, I was fast enough to just avoid them easily.
>>377541028
It's too late, I'm already succumbing to the void.
>>377536849
This one actually makes me laugh because it looks like a glitch.
>>377543387
>walk backwards slowly
NOPE
>>377543391
Nightmare House was ripping off Condemned with this scene, but the end with the SWAT behind the glass was pretty good.
>>377531173
scariest? prolly that one body dropping infront of me in that game where you're a reporter going to some mental institute.
most uncomfortable would be that crazy house in vtmb
>>377542652
Fucking Waxworks, man.
Harsh ass point n click.
>>377541239
Don't forget the 7th Colossus.

>grew up playing horror games like SH and Resident Evil in my room alone late night for maximum spooks and rarely get fazed
>for some unknown reason I actually freak out when I go in dark deep waters in a game
I never got that shark achievement on GTAV, or played Subnautica for more than an hour.
I can go swim at the beach in real life no problem though. Unless the water is deep and dark as fuck.
It confuses me cuz literally nothing else freaks me out at that level.
>>377531173
>>377543387
i used to much ammo on this guy because i didnt know about the lens
>>377544758
CLANG CLANG CLANG
>>377531173
I was playing Gta IV and I was at the beach walking around in almost total silence and suddenly a fucking car comes from nowhere and explodes right next to me, the driver jumped from the cliff or something. I don't think I've ever being so scared in a videogame kek
>>377547760
Scared, or startled? There actually is a difference. Jump scares are not actual scares.

Seriously what was he doing in there?
>>377539368
Nothing happens to you anyway. It's a video game. You're not getting hurt.
>>377540005
Seriously?

You may laugh at me but a very memorable recent moment was in SOMA when you find a woman scan copied into a damaged robot that is lying at the bottom of the ocean and she asks you if this is the Ark. Another one is the diving suit scene where Simon asks Catherine if there is something wrong and if she can run a diagnosis, that fucked me up a bit with the realization what's going to happen to you later.
Otherwise I am really scared when I am underwater or in space and my oxygen is running low so much it can fuck my controls, or in older games (like Resident Evil 3 or Parasite Eve) when I am dying and remember I haven't saved for a while. When I started playing Dota 2 I was startled every time Zeus used his ulti (it's a sudden lighting bolt on everyone accompanied with a loud crackle).
>>377541239
Yeah, pic related messed me up for awhile. I know it's cheesy, but that fucking heartbeat when it gets close.

>enter a room
>sudden close noise of something crashing
>never get followed up by anything

>>377550551
This whole sequence at the bottom of the trench was so fucking good.
>>377550551
I just sat there watching the credits roll and didn't want to go to bed anymore.
What the fuck man.
first time i found this motherfucker.
>>377550551
>>377551961
SOMA was great. It wasn't scary like a generic run-and-hide-from-jumpscares scarygame, but the story just sticks with you. The voice acting was so good and the conversations between Simon and Catherine felt so natural, and their emotions sounded real. It wasn't scary as much as it was disturbing. I really loved it and keep meaning to go back and replay it, but I've got a million other games in my backlog to get to first.
>>377543391
This is not okay with me at all
>>377552254
I wish they just announce something new already. Heard some rumors they want to make something completely unrelated to horror games this time and considering how great almost everything about SOMA was, I'm hyped.
>>377540346
+A
I really liked the wolf design. When I thought werewolf I thought, a large wolf. As I was an unkillable godly Tremere that could drain to heal up, do damage and buff myself, I was not prepared for the shock of seeing that huge furry monster charging towards me and two shotting me dead just like that.
Then each attempt was trail and error until I got it right, but my pride was shamed when I learned you could kill it. I wouldn't have stopped until I killed it, that's the type of guy I am.
>>377531173
This scared me pretty bad when I was younger
>>377531173
i knew exactly what was coming but it still fucked me proper
>>377536849
is this early footage from a bethseda game?
>>377542862
Good choice there.
>>377531173
>>377553967
Hmm I need to replay Grim Fandango I don't remember this
>>377554135
its some scary shit
luckily its just that part and the whole game doesnt look like this
For some reason the final fight with vulcan raven scared the shit out of me.
I don't know if its because I was sleep deprived or because it was so hard, but every time he says something like "I see you" from across the map and you can't even see him scared the shit out of me because you die instantly if he shoots you.
>>377531173
>>377553017
>that right stick spam trying to get a lock on
Fucking hate the dark areas in Souls.
>>377540075
>>377536949
I feel like that line was added specifically to scare kids. I'm pretty sure Nessie from Hazy Maze Cave can't actually eat you.
>>377552183
reminds me of that one exploitable meme
The first poison headcrab zombie you find in Half-Life 2
>>377554135
It's early in the game, don't forget to try and interact with them once you get to that part for an extra spoop
In the talkie version, when the dragon picks up Bobbin to take him to their lair, Bobbin does the most horrific scream I've ever heard and made me shit bricks as a kid
>>377550846
THIS THIS THIS
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
>>377553967
when i was a kid this scared the living fuck out of me
>>377552254
SOMA is one of those games where you could strip the gameplay out and still have a stellar concept.
It'd be interesting if they just made a visual novel instead of giving us the concept on a platter with a side of diet-Amnesia gameplay.
>>377541239
Boy do I have the game for (You)

>>377560112
This was spooky too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxXHNJD7wz0
>>377552254
Wait, what is it then? I saw it in steam and assumed it was like Outlast or Amnesia.
>>377539429

Prefontaine's audio logs were horrifying, too.
https://youtu.be/2BAgom3ue1I?t=5m6s
The first levels as a marine in Alien VS Predator 2.
Especially the fucking hive part, fuck that shit.
>>377540005
I played through the flood levels with my friend so I thought it was a cakewalk solo
fucking scared myself from playing after giving up on the first flood level because I ran out of ammo for everything and they just kept fucking coming at me and height didn't stop them
Any underground area in STALKER.
Nothing has topped the first time I came into contact with that controller in the underground.
>>377535987
I WILL TEAR OUT YOUR SPINE
Any game where the physics explode and cause a loud ruckus.
>>377531173
Outside of glitches, probably this.
>>377538748
>the guy just sits there with a smile on his face
>>377560439
I never got past this as a kid. I always tried to kill it.
>>377536949
it's not as scary in remake funny enough.
not a video game but Space Engine always revs up my anxiety. especially the black holes.
>>377531173
Bottom of the well and shadow temple were pretty spooky. Also those hands in the forest temple.
