The first two hours of Dead Space without a doubt.
>mfw those shadows behind every corner

>ooga booga jumpscares every 5 seconds

Dead Space was more annoying than scary

penumbra

Scratches.

That basement scene was fucking horrifying.

remak

INSIDE

9 9 9 was top tier in spooky without jump scares. It's not scary but great atmosphere. Especially with it's music.

As for actually scary in terms of really? Maybe I have No Mouth And I Must Scream? But even that might just be spooky than truly scary.

Sorry OP. I don't know what counts as scary really.

i hate deep water. i really don't know what i was thinking when i got this

RE4

life

Knowing you, I was sure you'd notice this game and play it.

Fucking love this series, especially 1,2,3. Perfect PS2 trilogy.

Cry of Fear got the most jumps out of me.
Amnesia had the best atmosphere.
SCP Containment breach 0.2 was the scariest.

>I need to play Silent Hill.

>babby's first nuHorror game
dead space is shit m8

So far Rush Of Blood , you can't get more scary than VR.
I'm getting ready to play RE7 VR and Paranormal Activity VR

VR is so scary for real because you are actually there and characters can approach you for real and get right in your face which they do.

is this a game

fuck you nigger

...

Minecraft.
Was scared shitless i may have autism.
Turns out game was garbage and no fun, thank fuck.
>still autist tho. cant win em all. dangit.

Alien Isolation probably

Condemned: Criminal Origins was p spoopy. FEAR had a few things that really creeped me out.

Eternal darkness fucked with me a lot, especially when i noticed statues looking at me

RE7 Beginning Hour until I realized there weren't any threats to back up the creepy sounds.

Alien Isolation and Scratches for me. I still can't bring myself to finish Scratches because I turn into a fucking pussy when a game gets me good, which admittedly isn't often (Silent Hill isn't scary at all for me, for example).

dead by daylight was pretty spooky because my first two games were against the doctor and Myers

Sounds like you're looking for the actual game, in that case.

Condemned because it actually has gameplay.

Amnesia, Penumbra, Ghoul's Forest 3 off the top of my head

Nosferatu

>What's the scariest game
>This game because it has gameplay!

Never understood how people get scared by playing games.
How can something be scary if it's not real and you're fully aware of it?
If you get scared by games you basically admit you believe in ghosts.

Oh yeah, and Scratches Directors Cut as well

Had to uninstall that shit when I had to go to the basement cuz that spooked me too hard

starwars galaxies, starting my first business

Post some good games that aren't necessarily horror but still creep you out

youtube.com/watch?v=1uJqRuQtF7A

Alien Isolation with Unpredictable Alien AI on Hard and with the sound effects removed is the most terrifying game i've ever played.

the mannequin part in nightmare house 2 hot me good

>dead space
>scary

my 7-year-old cousin can play this game without shitting himself

Routine

>get to the very end
>see the twist
>jump out of my computer chair and run out of the fucking room
I've never been spooked that hard. scratches atmosphere was so good

...

This game without a doubt

probably Cry Of Fear.
I don't understand why people here hate it so much. Jumpscares were well placed, atmosphere was like Silent Hill on steroids and those monsters screaming in dark hallways really creeped me out.

Most recently, darkwood. The reliance on atmosphere instead of just scares works really well. Sound design is incredible. Hearing furniture getting shuffled around your hideout, someone walking on glass, knocking on your door at night is really unnerving

What is immersion?

There's a semi ripoff of cry of fear called Grey a mod for hl2 that uses the hl2 engine instead of hl1 and you benefit from multiple playthroughs, scares change, locations change shit like that. Plus they made some pretty good looking "silent hill esq" monsters

Say no more, gonna try and muster up the balls to play it again this October

ImScared on Steam was pretty unnerving and also tedious at points.

Agree, I played it, it was pretty good the only "flaw" imo were enemies being a bit overpowered. a "headcrab" could easily fuck you up with few hits even with full health

Some of us live in homes where our drunk father and 15 year old black mother aren't constantly yelling at each other, unlike you, so we can get immersed in video games.

Found the underage numale.

fuck off shill

I don't remember the name of the game, but you're a psychic who goes to an old ladies house to investigate some trouble. Soon as you leave the old lady, she gets killed, and shit goes down RIGHT away. You can barely walk around before some freaky ass scary shit happens to you. That game is goddamn terrifying

replace "scared" with "happy, sad, excited, aroused" or any other emotion and realize how stupid you sound

The moment you enter that treehouse shit, hear some sound behind you and that scary motherfucker with the blowdart comes in

I still have nightmares

Monstrum.

Oh God, Monstrum. I played a lot of horror games, but none of them have made me so fucking scared to leave a "safe" room or a locker after running away from said monstrum.

And then there is a section where you have to go down the fucking stairs into the dark. I won't lie to you, Sup Forums. I was scared shitless and never touched the game since.

Amnesia was great too, I had to play it in small bursts because of the tension.

And then, there is this game. Holy shit I would never think a colourful game like this can be so fucking scary. Farthest I could get is around room 400. Can't get myself to move further. Backstory of the monsters in this game is kino 10/10.
>specimen was too hard to contain and they were unable to keep it in place
>they destroyed it
>or so they thought they did

HL1 because I was a babby
Maybe it would be scary if I were able to get pass the controls and focus on the atmosphere.

Its not a scary game in its entirety but some of the levels in metro are fucking freaky. And im not talking about the arms from everywhere parts, those feel like their trying to hard.

>enter temple
>someone is projecting their face into the ball thing

good luck friend.

Shit man even the people I know who played Riven didn't know what I was talking about but you immediately name that part... I remember coming back on that first island and thinking "why is the temple door closed?"
Then I saw Gehn's fucking face hovering there

It's so fucking terrifying

a tie between fallout 4 and risen 3. terrifyingly bad games

I haven't really played any horror games, so I'd have to say F.E.A.R. The ladder bit is pretty good.

I'm waiting on PC VR support for RE7. Excited.

Holy fuck I forgot about this. Something so simple, but so fucking devilish.

How bad are the jumpscares on 1?

fuuuuuck nightmare house 2

You are alright, user.

Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth and any game of Frictional Games.

Pretty sure that's from P.T.

It's a petty reason, but I didn't like it because I didn't like the sound design. A lot of it was just really loud screaming that was clipping the mic and it made it feel cheap.

SOMA is pretty fucking scary, it has one of the best stories I've encountered as well

Afraid Of Monsters: Director's Cut.

Nothing compares to this nightmare rollercoaster.

>but I didn't like it because I didn't like the sound design
Not him, but I LOVED the sound-design!
Especially the sound effects in the apartments and in the woods were just too fucking freaky.

the AoM:DC was made by the same guy, few years earlier, and it's practically CoF on steroids.
Obviously less visually impressive and closer to HL1's default gameplay, but that almost makes it spookier.

>woods
those fucking hanged witches (or whatever the fuck they are) falling from the trees.

give me a quick rundown on this game

yep, pretty good stuff, played that as well. The only problem was the torch.

...

>give me a quick rundown on this game
-free HL1 mod.
-first version came out somewhere in 2005 I think, and Director's Cut version, which is all around bigger and prettier, couple years later.
-practically a huge, twisted tribute to both Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
-Super dark. You need to find and save flashlight batteries.
-Very hard, even on Easy.
-Multiple endings.
-Scariest game you will ever play.

Does it have a lot of screamers?

It's a good game.
>first monster is some slow moving infested bot
>get a bit relaxed with stealth because he is so slow and probably won't hear y-
>fucker starts sprinting in my direction
NOPENOPNOPENOPENOPENOPENOPE

Also that one monster in a diving suit that is normally slow but gets incredibly fast every 3 seconds. Fucker always knew where I am.

Then there were some spaghetti black monsters. I managed to lock one up in a room. Shit was satisfying, then I stumbled upon the second one that I forgot was still in the area. NOPE NOPE NOPE

What if... pt wasn't cancelled and is still being worked on, and was announced that its cancelled so people won't beg for them to release it already and the next psx or e3 they come out with a boom and announce its release in just 2 years and it comes out and is literally horror ludo

Penumbra Black Plague

>Does it have a lot of screamers?
Except the one behind the keyboard? Nope.
Just a lot of "nope... Nope... NOPE!".

the original slenderman was EASILY the scariest thing i have ever played

Sad Satan
the red room theories were the scariest part

Great. Gonna check it out.

Why is Frictional Games doing nothing? Their stuff is always pretty good.

The first two hours of Dead Space on the highest difficult was pretty decent, but because you had so little ammo that running was a better idea than fighting.

But, honestly, not being chased through habitation by the immortal thing?

I think the sound design is pretty great until the enemies actually start attacking you. Maybe it's intentional for them to sound so weird but it rubbed me the wrong way when I played. Like I said, really petty reason for not liking the game, and I can tell a lot of the other parts are well done.

they literally just released the SOMA couple years ago. And their shit has totally dropped the ball since Penumbra: Black Plague

P.T. easily freaked me the fuck out more than any other game I've played.

some of it has to do with the GoldSrc -engine's limitations; just like the textures and stuff have very limited max resolution, the audio quality also is veeery low by modern standards.
It was less noticeable in HL, as your enemies ranged from Ayylmaos grumbling and crowling at you, or Muhreens chattering in radios, but with anything higher pitched, the screetches really start to play out.

Still, when people say "sound design", I usually first think of OST and the environmental ambiance - both which are superb and spooky in CoF.

This shit tore my asshole completely to pieces, but the goofiness of the combat mechanics was always enough to take me out of it.

>zero shot
>multi shot
>FATAL FRAME
>1000000+ points

>dead space is shit m8
Dead space is unironically the best horror game of all time, because it doesn't play like shit

a shill wouldnt call a game they're shilling tedious you spastic

I haven't played much horror games because I'm spooped easily, but Alien: Isolation.

>throw noisemaker at fellow humans
>doesn't attract alien, probably safe to shoot them
>few seconds after firing my revolver the ayy violently drops down from went right in front of me

My Esc-fu is ungodly

>their shit has totally dropped the ball since Penumbra: Black Plague
give me a break. Black Plague was so far their weakest product and still pretty good
Amnesia was excellent, probably the best Lovecraft like game after Bloodborne, it also sparkled a wave of first person survival horror (lots of them are shit), and the "custom map" community is still very active.
Soma was more plot driven but still a better than average product.

fun fact: the alien is controlled by 2 ai's, one that controls the body and one that always knows where you are and gives hints to the body ai.
