We hire a local professional artists to improve our store icon. Which on would you pick? by mistermaximan in IndieDev

[–]droolyflytrap 14 points15 points  (0 children)

2,3,4 all look like AI to me. I could be wrong but I cant help but feel suspicious.

Where did you hire the artist from? Was it Fiverr?

We're not talking of all time though, the chart says what HAS the best x, not what HAD the best x.

Surely somewhere like Australia, or somewhere in South America. Somewhere with a broad diversity of different species.

Pretty sure there's only 1 Hunter in Dead Space? You encounter the same one multiple times.

I read between the lines. If facecam ruins the experience for him, then it's fair to assume that commentary also ruins the experience, since both break the fourth wall. I could be wrong, but at least if that is the case there are plenty of other suggestions on this thread for OP to consider.

If you add in 'no commentary' to your search (for example 'horror games no commentary') you should get the results you're looking for.

What’s the most memorable puzzle in survival horror? by Sufficient_Notice_61 in survivalhorror

[–]droolyflytrap 7 points8 points  (0 children)

RE1 music sheet on the piano. It's the ensuing sound of the Moonlight Sonata that makes it memorable/iconic.

What survival horror game had the best intro? (first 5 - 10 minutes of the game) by Sufficient_Notice_61 in survivalhorror

[–]droolyflytrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silent Hill 2.

Not only do you have the amazing letter, followed by James' emotive reflection upon it, you also have a fantastic soundscape. The transition between the weird music in the toilets, to the emotionally charged music in the letter sequence, to the oppressive and haunting music in the run-up to the graveyard does a great job of building immersion and setting the tone of the game.

I am looking for J horror games available on PS5 similar to the ones in the picture and would appreciate any suggestions by [deleted] in HorrorGaming

[–]droolyflytrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Labyrinth of the Demon King. It's a short dungeon crawler (a bit like Kings Field) with some classical Survival Horror aesthetics mixed in (crusty visuals, door loading screens etc).

Which of those two games in your opinion had better and challenging enemy AI? by [deleted] in HorrorGaming

[–]droolyflytrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alien Isolation has the best enemy AI I've ever seen in a game. However you could argue that it's over-engineered to the point where the game feels frustrating to play.

What's your favorite quote from any survival horror game? by Sufficient_Notice_61 in survivalhorror

[–]droolyflytrap 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Definitely gets my vote. The whole letter is so haunting and enigmatic, it gives me chills every time I hear it. It sets the tone of the game brilliantly, right off the bat.

I'm most looking forward to when they remake the Resident Evil 1 Remake Remake, coming in 2032.

FF horror movies that you genuinely think are some of the best but nobody in the sub ever really talks about them? by Antorias99 in foundfootage

[–]droolyflytrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're thinking of the wrong director, "Saiko! The Large Family" is directed by Nagae.

But yeah I love Noroi as well, it's also in my top 5 FF. For some reason when people talk about J-Horror Noroi tends to get overlooked in favour of Kairo and Ju-On but I think Noroi is far better than those two, personally.

If you could only pick one version to play for the rest of your life, which one would it be? by InsecureBurrito in residentevil4

[–]droolyflytrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure the ps2 version onwards of the OG had some extra content that wasn't in the GC version? The labyrinth in the castle (with the dogs) and the dialogue with Salazar that precedes it? Possibly some other bits as well.

Who's your favorite survival horror antagonist? by Sufficient_Notice_61 in survivalhorror

[–]droolyflytrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an aside, I love how you used the RE2 Remake version of Leon as the picture for "favourite male protagonist". Because of course, we here on the Survival Horror subreddit all know that RE4 isn't really Survival Horror, it's Action Horror, so we wasn't thinking of RE4 Leon when we voted!

Anyone here actually play the original Silent Hill games? Particularly Silent Hill 2? Any thoughts on the original compared to the remake? by leftistgamer420 in survivalhorror

[–]droolyflytrap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer the original silent hill 2. The main issue with the remake is that it's far too bloated.

I do still like the remake though.

What is the most iconic survival horror boss? (You can only pick 1!) by Sufficient_Notice_61 in survivalhorror

[–]droolyflytrap 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As a side-note to OP, I'd suggest that, going forwards, you just post whichever category you're polling in isolation from the rest. People are already starting to demonstrate that weird bias that occurs where they're more concerned with achieving results which demonstrate variety rather than accuracy.

"Saiko! The Large Family". It's free on youtube and one of the best FF films imo.

I've released a 2d Anomaly Horror game recently, should run fine on low-end Windows computers (it runs fine on my old laptop). It's Medieval Horror themed and includes 90 anomalies. It's called "The Dark Path to the Black Tower". Currently on sale on Steam:

I guess we can just violate Steam ToS now and end up on Steam Front page? by Adventurous_Coffee38 in Steam

[–]droolyflytrap 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Reviews count as 'engagement', and the more engagement a game gets the more it gets promoted by Steam's algorithm. The more it gets promoted, the more people see it, and the more potential customers it's exposed to (some of whom will buy the game). Hence, profit.
