You literally wrote exactly what I was about to.

Sorry I'm not a spider expert, OP

>game has artificial jump scares

Looking like this

>Game has giant spiders as enemies
>They're cute

>cute

not op but

>hiding in dark, secluded areas, not necessarily being on the attack but instead acting like a monster from a horror movie
>living in a gigantic webs
>having spun up dead bodies in those webs and feasting on them

And don't forget.

>Skittering across the floor on their 8 spindly legs directly towards you at lightning speed

A huge part about why spiders are scary to me IRL are because they can be so fucking fast, they just sit on the wall ominously waiting and at any time could burst in any direction. When I was a kid I had a spider jump onto my shoe and run up my entire body to my chin before I could get it off.

In videogames spiders are usually slow and large, this removes a huge part of what makes them scary. Do any videogames have smaller faster spiders that post a genuine threat if they get you?

fug

They only seem fast because they're small, and you most often encounter them in small spaces.
If you really compare the numbers, you can outrun the fastest spider with a brisk walk.

Okay?

Now imagine something like that's the size of a human being rushing towards you from the dark before you have a chance to react.

Not taking the risk

I would think a horde of tiny spiders would be scarier.

fds

Yeah I'm don't want this to happen

>Dark Messiah
good luck user you'll need it

Fuck you.

>See spiders in Skyrim for the first time
>Nearly shit my pants in fear
>Turns out they're retards that can't fit into small spaces
>They spit fucking web at you
>They can't crawl on walls or ceilings
>They try to poke you with their legs
Why include spiders if you're just going to make them, in essence, wolves that can poison you?

>makes posts on v
>has never played dwarf fortress
Fuck off and die.

Spider locomotion is achieved by using their hemolymph as hydraulic fluid to extend their legs in rhythm. At that scale, their movements would be sluggish and weak, provided they would even be able to move at all.

...

how could you do me like this?

GOD DAMNIT

not this shit again

again - Dark Messiah
notice the dangling corpses

Won't risk it

no

Honestly, with all of the neat & imaginative monsters that they could put in this game, they took the lazy way out & just magnified spiders. Fuck that.

>shaggy15
H-how many other rare Shaggy's do you have friend?

Plz no

I probably won't have kids but just in case

K?

Fuck

Faggot.

wow i wouldnt want that

shet

Spiders aren't nearly terrifying enough in video games.

>stalks the player
>hides in shadows/underbrush
>doesn't announce presence
>pounces on the player
>player falls and has to fight it off of him

or alternatively

>player doesn't see tiny web strands
>suddenly stuck
>spider slowly crawls out of her den towards him
>has to get unstuck before she gets to him

Also, fuck giving spiders mouths. I hate that shit. Their hypodermic fangs are way more terrifying.

Kill yourself, you scumbag nigger lover.

Excuse me if I'm not an autistic neckbeard faggot

>implying I'll have daughters

>pull out my concealed carry
>make spider stew

>game depicts spiders as inherently evil even though most real spiders are harmless, the dangerous ones aren't aggressive, they eat genuinely awful insects such as wasps, and they make beautiful webs out of a substance stronger than steel

Where are the spiderbros in vidya, dammit?

>game has delegates
>DAHNALD withholds them from you
Why do games do this?

nice (you) collection :^)

baka

I always ignore the mother posts but I can't risk this one

Nah.

The delegates, Donald.

ok

HES FAST!

This spider is my wife.

H-HAYAI

fuggin porky

>implying I don't have immunity pupper

I always wondered how bugs moved. I didn't know it was hydraulic forces. I always thought it was just tiny muscles.

>fictional spiders always make weird squeaky or hissing noises

Morons don't get that the profound and absolute silence is a huge part of what makes them so terrifying.

You're forgetting about the bizarre, jittery movements, but not picture spindly fingers doing it.

>has to fight it off
>m-muh QTEs
how fun... whoa....

>see spider under my desk
>web is spun, just chilling
>whatever, he's not in the way
>weather turning cold, all sorts of insects coming in from outside
>coworkers killing spiders and any other tiny creature near their desk
>wow user, why are there never any bugs near your desk?

the jittery movements happen because in real life they're really small, and they happen with all small bugs and animals. it's a physics thing, like how elephants and fictional gigantic creatures sort of have a lumbering presence

Spiders are creepy because they don't attack you.

They just sit there watching. They are the most unpredictable creatures when dealing with humans. When I caught one on the floor I thought it was dead, it was playing dead, or asleep? So I just left it for later. I come back later and it has moved but is still playing dead. It looked like a crumpled up ball of a dead spider. Then all the sudden when I'm carrying it in a glass outside it expands its legs and becomes 5 times the size it was and starts running around, then stops and just freezes and stares. When I let it go outside it freaked the fuck out and booked it at lightning speed.

An interesting thing was that it was halfway climbed up the side of the class at the bottom, but when I pulled the glass away it didn't move. It was frozen in pose as if it's legs were still touching the glass.

Creep fuckers. I have tons living with me, there's a thick black one that has a web next to my bed that I haven't bothered to deal with.

Winter is when I stop seeing insects and spiders so much. Summer is when the HUGE spiders start coming out.

What is it about spiders that make them so singularly terrifying compared to other insects?

The fact there's one on you right now? I dunno

man this movie was shit

Hydraulic legs look unnatural to humans

I've had him since September. He stays out of the way and devours anything that wanders under my desk.

Is this why I hate those fast roaches/centipedes so much? The slower insects I'll take outside, but anything fast gets killed on sight.

Dark Messiah ones were scary. Shit was dark, they kept coming from everywhere and that poison your shit up.

I'm not sure if those bugs have hydraulic legs too. I actually like spiders but fucking HATE centipedes and roaches.

>playing through Dayhard
>suddenly SPIDERS
If there was one place I thought they couldn't get me, it was a joke source mod.

ah, you mean something like this youtube.com/watch?v=YAunmJFl9lw

thats because you have low intellect

no it was just artsy 2deep4u canadian indie bullshit

damn this is a good variation

Blame evolution.

Our early ancestors would have extremely vulnerable to spiders and other venomous insects, so we developed an aversion to their unsettling appearance and unpredictable movements.

Arachnophobia is literally hardwired into our DNA.

Believing in evolution

rearing up to show their fangs with venom dripping off them

>kill a spider
>his mate comes out of the shadows and begin to eat him
And some motherfuckers call them cute.

>kill spider
>hundreds of spiders come out of it's body

GCS are pretty cool, I always capture them and make a silk farm. Makes having a clothing industry not an annoying piece of shit

DAHNALD! YOU HAVE NO CHOICE NOW. THE SKELEGATES WILL BE MINE AND I WILL RULE OVER AMERICA FOR A THOUSAND YEARS!!

I remember these spider things from Metro games use to make me really uneasy, can't quite remember why tho

:^)

Post examples of spider enemies done right.

Not many 12 year olds have facial hair.

You're still an autistic lardass faggot, though.
