There are a lot of horror game tropes I hate, like:
Jump scares
Cliche monster designs such as mutilated human, ghost woman, singing/giggling little girl, and worst of all, asylum inmate :cringe:
Having 'insanity' as a game mechanic
I also hate when horror games basically screams at you to "Be scared now!!!1!" including things like:
Player character breathing heavily when they see something you're supposed to scared of.
Camera effects such as shaky cam, blurry cam, blood on camera or 'insanity vision'.
A monster screaming in your face
A loud jumpscare music sting
Now, I know what you're thinking, "Dirt_Owl, do you even like horror games at all then?"
The answer is no. No I do not.
Yume Nikki - It's all about vibes, and it does it so, so well. Best of all, it's free.
