Been on-and-off of the site for a long time. Male, late-twenties. My interests are varied, but steer towards western fantasy and sci-fi. I'm picky with my weeb media.

This sounds interesting, what would my title be?..


That's absolutely something you decide for yourself.
Would help if I could, bby.

Might as well lean into it the way that guy who did the Room did, and go for ironically pretentious.

I've never seen an actual horror game that hasn't just went jumpscare crazy. I feel like the only thing other than jumpscares (that i've seen) is horrifying character imagery/personalities.


The earlier Silent Hill games

The earlier Resident Evil games

Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs

Check them out.

lmao was it really?


Yeah. Before that it was (get this) Melancholy Immortal.

At this point it would be pretentious not to make it edgy as fuck.

Edgier than a razor blade factory.


It suits me though. It's a moniker I've used for quite awhile now.

Well, making a horror game without Jumpscares can be difficult. Because that and ambiance are the only things that tell you things are going down.


I disagree. Ambiance is important, but there is far more to building suspenseful and truly horrifying gameplay. Jump-scares, however, have nothing to do with it.
My Grandfather and I weren't close, but every time I met him, he came off as a mafia don. I have no other way to put it. He always had obscene amounts of money that my mother couldn't explain, and his mannerisms were those of an extremely exaggerated Italian New Yorker. My mom still doesn't talk about where he got his money. I never got the chance to ask him face-to-face as an adult either.

As for my Grandmother, she was an abominable person. When my mother was pregnant with me, she had to leave my father for reasons I won't mention here, and she went to her mother's place, who had a spare bedroom. My Grandmother slammed the door in the face of my pregnant mother and four year old sisters. Relations never improved with her. I'm not sure why she was so bitter, and only when I really take the time to reflect do I think I'm kind of curious. I think if she were still alive I'd probably ask her about it, but I can't say I'm distraught over the loss.

I'm happy that you had a cool Granddad though, Taaj. He seemed like a neet dood.

The game would have been MUCH more suspenseful if you had to actually walk around and lock doors manually for the full night while the puppets are trying to find you.


Now that I would enjoy playing. Still, if I were to play something like that, it'd probably just make me want to play Amnesia.
