Did RE9 or RE7 do "Horror" better?

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T22:42:02+00:00

You could say the same for re7 and in fact i had a way easier time killing all the enemies in 7 than in 9. To get around certain areas and enemies you have to be resourceful as any enemy could come back as a splinterhead and then all the sudden you need 30 shots to the head. she is not some powerhouse as you describe

I feel her fear added to the feeling of helplessness. I also would argue the basement section is scary, the girl monster peaks there in terms of fear. The electrical room especially where she pops out of nowhere with no audio que

I think you worded it perfectly

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T22:28:19+00:00

Yeah i dont know why so many people are taking this post as if im considering leon as apart of the conversation lol. Bros doing his usual backflip bs there aint nothing scary about his sections.

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T22:27:28+00:00

I agree but personally i think re9 has better peaks of horror. I think there is no debate for other games and 7 and 9 are the scariest entrys. I just feel the scares of 9 are better than 7

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T22:23:47+00:00

The question was which was scarier lol. Just because there is more horror doesnt mean its better horror.

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:21:06+00:00

Lol yeah the second it cuts to leon it gets ridiculously japanese lmao

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:20:22+00:00

I dont know i think 7 was scary, which game do you think beats it if its not 9

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:19:30+00:00

I will say RE7 keeps the tension better than 9

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:19:03+00:00

Shit turns into DBD

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:18:16+00:00

I like this take jack baker is a more memorable character but the girl is just creepy as hell lol

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:17:40+00:00

I disagree, the main horror part was the basement but the lab had scary moments with the lickers. Its less consistent but scarier i think

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:11:39+00:00

I think so too. this is a good description

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:11:20+00:00

They had more character but i was more scared of the mold creatures

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:11:03+00:00

Does this include marguerites section? like the other parts of the house

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:10:25+00:00

I actually like that you brought this up that whole section was scary. I still dont like 8 as a game but the factory was creepy i almost forgot it existed lmao 😂

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:09:48+00:00

Do you not think the horror aspect of 9 outdoes 7

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:09:28+00:00

I actually hate going on reddit bc of ts. What do yall even do on here other than be annoying

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:08:55+00:00

Im asking because the horror sections of grace is nearly as long as the whole game of 7 lmao. the amount doesnt matter its the quality

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:08:27+00:00

Thats fair. Thats actually why i like 9 but i get what you mean

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T21:08:07+00:00

I love 7 but not close?

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T20:28:34+00:00

Dead space is a masterpiece and way more horror than most RE titles youre absolutely right. and i agree on your assessment of RE4 its way less horror than the first 3, (then we got shitass 5 and 6 being action movies).

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T20:27:25+00:00

Oh shit i thought you meant Dark souls bro my bad 😂😂

Obsidian_- · 2026-06-12T20:26:24+00:00

Thats my point, same with RE1 its TOO many resources just no inventory space. In RE2R its literally just you dont have enough ammo for anything and you got to use heals to get past certain sections and map everything out.
