I was very hesitant to buy this game and play it, because i don't do scary games well but if i can shoot and kill the scary monster then im better at handling it. The Mimics where pretty scary to begin with and still make me jump a bit when i don't expect them. But id say i'm less scared of the monsters than in the beginning. And so far the gameplay is pretty good. This game would put this day an age triple A games to same with it's design and gameplay. Id say the game is worth it.
