Also this kirby thing since small me was just terrified of the expressions [img]https://thumbs.gfycat.com/WearyChiefAtlanticblackgoby-max-1mb.gif[/img]

@Kiserath I saw a speedrun of that game and the fact that it got a 3+ rating in Europe with that last level amazes me.

The Pokémon sun entry for Gengar

“Should you feel yourself attacked by a sudden chill, it is evidence of an approaching gengar. There is no escaping it. Give up.”

That’s taken directly from the Pokédex.
Nintendo, what the hell.

I’m currently playing Psychonauts for the first time, and it seems to be about 50% nightmare fuel, 50% comedy. Though It might be more nightmare fuel for me than for most people because i’m Pretty sensitive to brain-based gore. :/

I can take your Dead Hands, lavender towns, Omega Floweys, no problem. But I would gladly nope out of a significant portion of Psychonauts. If only the characters weren’t so amazing...

I don't really want to read through all the pages to see if someone posted about this yet but uhhh I used to play this one game as a kid a lot and it scared me SO BAD.

Called Nightmare Ned. I forgot its name for a looooong time and after enough searching around I found it again haha.

Dunno if anyone here knows of the game but the part where you're turned into a slug and there's someone trying to pour salt on you terrified me as a kid the most idk why.

So like, I know this probably just me, but I get really freaked out by aggressive, murderous cars (automated or where the driver is an unknown), so I got really freaked out when I was playing Kingdom Hearts 2 and encountered these guys in Timeless River. edit: I'd like to add that this only counts when my character is not a vehicle. I love driving/racing games and aggressive cars in those games don't freak me out lmao Original: [img]https://www.khwiki.com/images/thumb/3/35/Hot_Rod_TR_KHII.png/557px-Hot_Rod_TR_KHII.png[/img] Final Mix: [img]https://www.khwiki.com/images/a/a1/Hot_Rod_KHIIFM.png[/img] [url=https://youtu.be/szRWQ54zh8I?t=2m41s]A video for anyone curious as to why they freaked me out so much.[/url] In a similar vein, but definitely NOT a kid's game, I was freaked out by the propaganda trucks in Saints Row 4 for the same reason.

One of the things that freaks me out the most is the Man-At-Legs from pikmin 2. Not only is it a spider, but its flesh is fused to some machinery. [img]https://i.imgur.com/yGofN6S.jpg[/img] You can even [b]hear[/b] its flesh when it opens up to shoot you with a freaking machine gun! It's crazy accurate too, so unless you find cover you can easily lose 30-40 pikmin at a time. [s]Also the implication in that game that humans have gone extinct and were all killed off by something.[/s]
