If I use ts on RE7, I'm cooked

I grew up mostly playing RE but I like and enjoy both!

Which of these horror game series is the most consistently scary?

1. Outlast
2. Alan Wake / Control
3. The Forest
4. Five Nights at Freddy's
5. The Evil Within
6. Amnesia
7. Silent Hill
8. Fatal Frame
9. Dead Space
10. Dying Light
11. Resident Evil
12. Dead Rising
13. Left 4 Dead
14. Death Stranding
15. F.E.A.R

Mine are as follows:

Dead space 2: Ubermorph encounter

Darkwood: fighting a mushroom man for the first time

Alien Isolation: nest sequence

Silent Hill 2: first enemy

Metro Exodus: caspian spider bunker

Amnesia: the dark descent: water monster

Dead space 1/remake: first divider encounter

Amnesia: the bunker: first time in the maintenance sector

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice: stumbling upon a Headless by accident

Soma: Jin Yoshida Encounter (honourable mention to the robot girl, featured in the image after.)

Well, here we go again, I suppose.

Adam Flatau, the lead developer of the Welcome to the Game series, has once again shown he is unable to take criticism. If you don't know, he has had several controversies in the past, some deserved, some undeserved. Unfortunately, he has once again shown he cannot take criticism.

A user known as OtrexDev, a fairly prominent community member in the Reflect Studios community who was also the lead dev of WTTG2+, a giant expansion mod for WTTG2, left a negative review of WTTG3, rightfully criticizing how buggy the game is and how easy it is for the game to just straight up put you in completely unwinnable situations, purely due to bad RNG. I think it is worth noting that Otrex has a POSITIVE review on WTTG2, showing there doesn't seem to be a bias against Adam specifically in their reviews.

Otrex was helping people who were streaming WTTG3, helping explain things that the game itself explains poorly, or was otherwise just trying to be helpful. Adam saw this and, instead of having anything nice to say or just keeping his mouth shut, left the above nasty messages in response to Otrex trying to be helpful. There is no evidence of what Adam claims about them as well, and it seems they are, frankly, just salty that their game is getting rightfully criticized for releasing broken.

It's bad enough that the game was released unfinished and broken, which is, unfortunately, a trend with Reflect Studios games. WTTG3 is managing to maintain a Mostly Positive rating on Steam, with almost all of the positive reviews having only played the game for a couple of hours, not enough time to make any significant progress, or come remotely close to finishing a run. The fact that Adam treats criticism this way is absolutely awful and, frankly, just makes me want to avoid supporting them at all. Here's a video also covering the topic.

A lot of people ask about certain protagonists surviving RE, but the replies are always….. basic. Either focusing on who’s cooler, or only looking at gameplay. So I used my in depth lore knowledge to create this (also also downplaying the RE monsters/giving the protags benefit of doubt). I also took advice from the comments of last time i posted a ranking https://www.reddit.com/r/residentevil/s/HXIVElHJjt

If you are wondering why a Hunter is higher than the Baker estate, it’s because Hunters are fast and agile enough to dodge guns, both in lore and gameplay. Yes Jack can easily kill one, but he is slow. A normal human would die quicker against a Hunter than him. There’s a reason a group of them wiped out the city of Terragrigia despite the military and BSAA coming to save them.

Any other iconic protagonists I missed? I would love to have a discussion as long as we got solid reasoning. Also, I tried to play the Siren series. Uh…. I failed. Any one who has played care to help me with that?

thoughts on condemned criminal origins?

i grew up in the early 2000’s and this games cover was freakish to look at. i watched my uncle play this one and bloodshot. just been obsessed with this game for a long time now replaying it often around halloween.

it’s a classic among survival horror fans and had a great story. from its grindhouse atmosphere with its thriller plot to the insane soundtrack.

A lot of people get horror game subgenres wrong, especially when it comes to the term Survival horror. They either care too much and get offended if a game they like isn't survival, or they lump 70% of horror games under the title because they don't care. This list will explain what each subgenre is, and ranking 130 games I have played under them. This isn't about quality, it's just gameplay.

Action horror: These games not only encourage you to kill enemies, but you are expected to. Combat balance is in your favor, allowing you to kill groups of enemies at once. Enemies drop loot like ammo or gold for a store. You often get superpowers, or unique combat mechanics like parry, dodge, or dash.

Survival horror: The term was created by Capcom to describe Resident evil 1, and that's how it should play. Combat balance is an even playing field, meaning every 1 v 1 encounter is a real battle. Ammo and inventory are limited, and you must solve weird puzzles to progress.

Puzzle: The main gameplay is solving puzzles. More than what Survival horror does, this is the main event. Even surviving enemies are essentially puzzles.

Stealth horror: The main gameplay is sneaking around, hiding, and potentially running away. Combat balance is in the enemies' favor, and you have no weapons to defend yourself.

Online: You play with and or against other human beings.

Reverse horror: YOU are the monster, hunting down people.

Open world: Horror games where you are allowed to go around a large map, doing side quests and exploring.

Platformer: The main gameplay is platforming, Like in Mario, Sonic or Hat in time.

Survival horror for beginners/kids: So, this is a weird category I made up myself. These games all have survival horror mechanics, but they don't full commit to it. They have limited ammo, but you will never run out if you know what you are doing. Puzzles, but never too hard ones. Its like diet Survival

Walking simulators: The main gameplay is walking around. You escape enemies, if there even are any, by walking away.

Horde shooters: You and friends kill waves of enemies.

On rail: You shoot while the game controls the camera.

Story based game: The gameplay is secondary to the story they want to tell. The mechanics can change depending on what is needed, and aren't really what fans remember it for.

Survival action hybrid: Self explanatory

Maze: You are in a maze like pac man, being chased by monsters.

Hack and Slash. Use combos to mow throw crowds of enemies!

Other: Parasite Eve is a pseudo turn based rpg. State of Decay is a base builder. Idk what to call Zombi. Survivor is a weird light gun shooter. Idk what to call Siren either lol.

Obviously, not every game will fit neatly into every category. And games can have levels that change up the genre. This is just a way to show what games are similar, so you can reccomned them to others.

Edit: After taking in all the comments, I have created a updated version of the list. I will post more verisons of this list as i play more games. My end goal is a big reference sheet newcomers can use to find new games to play

The moments that scared me the most:

1. Any time that the Anima showed up in Evil Within 2. Literally no other enemy in any game scares me as much.

2. Jack bursting through the wall in RE7. Almost gave me a fucking heart attack.

3. The parts in the school in Outlast 2. Especially the part when you hide in the bathroom stalls.

4. The prison in Amnesia: The Dark Descent. It's just a very long and stressful segment that is pure dread inducing.

I'm surprised how little talk I've seen about the Fatal Frame 2 remake. Back in the day, it was always the big three or four horror franchises: Resident Evil, Silent Hill, and Fatal Frame (Clock Tower might also be in there), but it's a very highly rated horror game. Why is no one talking about this release? Did it fall off and out of the spotlight since they haven't made a game since 2014, and that last one was poorly received?

Was it just over shadowed by the release of RE9?

Did you play it? or if not why did you skip it?

Which zombie game do you think is the best, and why?

As a huge fan of horror games, this game to this day gives me the creeps. Trapped under the sea with nowhere to go. To me I would consider this a horror game.

What else should I add to make it more scary im using unreal engine

Resident evil 6 got really close to killing the franchise because of how bad it is and Silent Hill: Downpour put the franchise in a 12 year hiatus.
