Helpless Victim Simulator
Helpless victim simulator doesn't make it a good Horror game. Navigating through the dark with a camera's nightvision and occasional scare jumps doesn't make it a good Horror game either. Being unarmed, helpless victim doesn't make it a good game at all. It only makes it a frustrating experience overall. Protagonist can't take a single bat in order to defend himself. Games like this need weapons, and with an atmosphere like this it could build up the tension to add more to the overall experience. Add to that limited ammo resources, and that would make things a lot more engaging. Playing game for hours with a camera in the hand is so boring. Oh, but the environment provides a plenty of the batteries specifically for the protagonist's camera model. How convenient. Games like The Suffering, The Suffering - Ties That Bind and Half-Life allow the use of weapons, and do not lose quality horror experience. Heck, The Whistleblower DLC has a ghost as the enemy, which insta-killed me. Developers should know by now that ghost that are not of solid matter should not be featured in games like these. Especially if they insta-kill the player. It is a game over. There is no win against such types of the enemies. No storyline can justify it. It totally breaks the immersion to have an enemy like that in a Horror game, where the protagonist enters experimental laboratories and similar facilites. This is not the ARPG like Titan Quest - Anniversary Edition, Grim Dawn or Torchlight, where a ghost is nothing more than another enemy type. And no, playing it with the lights switched off, being alone in a room, and with the headphones on doesn't make it any better. Avoid it. Try out The Suffering, The Suffering - Ties That Bind and Half-Life instead. Those are the real Horror games.
