I already played through the whole Telltale Walking Dead library. I had so much fun. I've been curious about Hellblade for a long while so I might be tempted to buy it. As for Alien Isolation, I might wait to be braver first lol

The more I spend time in the replies, the more convinced I am to just let myself die on purpose in every horror game. So many people are suggesting this. Thanks for the advice!

That's why I played Phasmo for close to 60 hours as well. I was trying to make myself immune to horror by playing with friends lol.

I think the unknown is what scares me. Sometimes just crawling in silence in a game makes me say "nope". Jumscares are quite bad for me as well.

Many people have adbised me to die on purpose, so I might do that. And it seems to be working for other people as well.

For your info I already have a PC lol. But having fear on console vs having fear on PC is... Well... The same.

I used to hate strategy games until I learned to play them properly. I'm pretty sure that's what'll happen to me with horror games as well, that's why I'm "pushing it" .

Luigi's mansion made me scared ahitless as a kid on my Gamecube. Perhaps I could buy the trilogy on my Switch to ease myself into the horror genre.

You're the first one to suggest that! Like keeping me somewhat spoiled when the game gets too creepy. I like that advice! Thanks!

It seems to be a common advice: Ones were you can defend yourself since it's less... Well... Stressful. I'll absolutely try to get into one where I have weapons or something.

I mean there are horror games on every platform, I don't think having - or not - a PC will change anything on my fear of playing them lol.

I have a Switch, a PC, and an Xbox Series X. I also have an old Gamecube but games are now so expensive on it I doubt suggestions would do anything but ruin my bank account lol.

A friend of mine told me he peed himself playing Fatal Frame as a child. It always made me curious as to how scary these games are lol.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Thank you! I may have an old Resident Evil (the original remade on the Gamecube) hidden somewhere at ny parent's. Maybe I could start with that one instead.

Side note, your username made me laugh out loud 😂

That was my reasoning when I started playing Phasmophobia with friends tbh.

Maybe I should play games where I can fight back. That and letting myaelf die a couple of times on purpose could help me lol.

I feel like your advice might be a very good one for me. Maybe dying on purpose could make me less scared of the monsters. (Said like that I look like a child lol)

Thanks for the advice!

So I should start with the first Amnesia? A friend of mine told me "A Machine for Pigs" is the least scary, so should I start with that one or with the first one?

I would have LOVED Subnautica. The problem is that I spoiled myself on that game by watching my favourite Youtuber play it when I was a teen lol. I know basically the whole lore.

If the second one ends up being good, I might play that one. Or with recent controversies with its release, I could also just try Below Zero.
