That's the kind of creepy that's slightly unsettling but you don't really know why until you think on it. And then it really is unnerving...



In my case, it's always Zelda games that get to me. Of all things...

Okay the redeads in Ocarina of Time. I hate them so much the way the jump on Link and scream and their twitching in the corner of the screen is horrible.

And then the Spirit Trials in Skyward Sword. Being chased by the spirits is absolutely terrifying and just hearing the song make my heart speed up.

And in the beginning of Breath of the Wild the Guardians are so intimidating all you can do is run and hope for the best if they see you. Later though, when you have better equipment and more health they're so easy to take down which is so satisfying considering the anxiety they brought earlier on.

I guess what freaks me out most is being helpless against a powerful enemy and having to run with impending doom close behind. If I have the slightest chance of being able to win a fight I'm okay but if it's impossible the flight response really gets me.

For me it's pretty much any RPG at any point in time. I love RPGs, I really do, but im all honesty, I play to be a part of the story. When it comes to the actual fighting required to keep the story moving, though, I get really unnerved. Just exploring unsetlles me because I'm worried about a vampire jumping out of nowhere or something. Even though my character can typically take a few hits, I just don't like the character's life being in my hands, I suppose. It doesn't make a lot of sense, I know, but that's how I feel.

Fatal Frame and the shinies. You go to grab one, and- [img]http://fan.koukeisha.net/ff2g-fanlisting/title.png[/img] They make the shinies so needed, so you HAVE to pick all of them up, but once and a while, you get attacked, and it FREAKS ME OUT!!! That game makes me scream sometimes.

[quote name="inklizard" date=2017-04-18 19:55:25] the broodmother from da:o is a nightmare beast [/quote] This reminds me of something. Oozemancers in Tales of Maj'Eyal. The object of one is to steadily turn into a slime/ooze hybrid on purpose. There's a talent where the object is to make your organs not easy to spot by enemies via body horror. Oh, and parts can split off of you when hit forming oozes. [s]Thankfully[/s], this sort of thing isn't shown on a paperdoll except for summoned oozes. You just imagine the horror yourself.
