Dang brother, Omori is THAT scary?

@RedBackLoggd - haha thankfully not. Personally Omori delves more into the surreal/psychological horror I found fascinating even to this day. Like other horror games I've played usually play into the horror elements by being direct, in your face, blunt stuff usually coupled into the looping game mechanics. Omori does that too, but imo more subtly and a stark contrast from the other's i played in the genre as well. Subtly clever I think in delivering the overall thematic messaging the team tries to convey to audiences. To excellent effect. At least for me lol

So would you say it's more like leaves you uncomfortable versus outright scaring you?

@RedBackLoggd - Kinda yeah. But not too uncomfortable since there's plenty of sweet moments

Bloodborne is scary? :O

@VolliVolliVolli - Kinda! For others it may not be scary. For me. I did have some moments where I had shivers crawling up my spine and times where I almost threw my controller in the air. But I stomached through it because the creatures and humans were not too much in your face about it. I think the gameplay helps a bunch in making you a real threat. So what I initially thought was scary turned out to be dead after fighting them lol
@VolliVolliVolli probably the most terrifying game I've played so yeah I'd say so

Ahh, makes sense. I have yet to play Bloodborne so you're insight is most valuable here, the monsters are truly terrifying from first glance at the gameplay. The Dark Souls games also have these distasteful monster designs, but somehow we overlook it because of the challenge in hand XD
