i like poe and lovecraft. modern horror relies too much on jump scares and gorey effects.
Condemned is not a modern horror game, lol. It's from like 2005.
It doesn't rely too much on jump-scares either.

my favorite horror games as of this point are amnesia: decent into darkness and nightmare house 2 (half life 2 mod). RE1 is pretty solid too. throw in a silent hill. you be scared for weeks.
Meh, RE1 has too many problems as a result of the fixed perspective imo.
RE4 is great, but not very scary outside of a few places.
Amnesia:TDD (not DID) is amazing ofc.
I've heard that Silent Hill one isn't anything special, but that Silent Hill 2 is amazing. Which one do you mean?

Your attitude seems kind of elitist quite frankly.. Stop that.

"I also am Otherkin. Whenever autumn rolls around I can feel my kin-type slowly taking over my body. You must know, I identify as pumpkin. I can control it pretty good most of the time, but when September ends, I just cant hold it in anymore. Whenever Im outside I see my brothers and sisters being chopped into soup, coffee, donuts, cake, drinks, bread - ppl even cut human faces into their skin, making a mockery out of their noble appearance. When I see things like that I cant control my pumpkin urges anymore. My natural instincts kick in. I then sit down motionless, while getting bright orange." - Morgana L

But I'd have to agree to that.
Amnesia has both aspects, tho. The story is enough to get you firghtened, but it also contains gore.
As caucheka said, poe's stories were awesome qwq
While on the topic of scary games, I think Frictional nailed the concept for their next game completely:
""Toshabi took thy **** and strucketh Hotshot in his face 'thou art no god'" Toshabi 3:16" - Toshabi
"And then, TheJohn said something so Brazilian that it made all the Brazilians in Brazil turn to look at him" - Toshabi
"abloobloo ur triggering me" - Toshabi

if you liked poe then you should check out lovecraft. the dude idolized poe and is almost as influential poe himself. even more influential than stephen king.

Not mentioned in the video is Condemned: Criminal Origins, which is 75% off too. It's a good, gritty horror experience.
