I'm a horror-wuss in general and so don't really ever play any horror themed games. I have played all of RE4 and bits of RE5 but those were basically action games. I noped out of Dead Space but could've persevered if I tried.
So far I'm finding RE2 remake to be pretty terrifying, even though it's just occasional jump scares and more just a generally creepy vibe. I'm pretty early on in my first ever play of the game - I'm playing Leon's story first. The main thing for me is the sound design is really chilling - from the creaky floorboards to the shattering of windows. It doesn't help that my only viable option to play the game is at night and with headphones. So I've mostly played so far either with headphones off and my tv volume quite low (which makes it less scary, though who decided to actually use the PS4 controller's speaker!!!) or with one ear not in the headphones.
Anyway, I'll get through it, despite being a huge coward with this stuff, the game is pretty enjoyable.
Just wanted to share someone completely new to RE2's experiences. (I was around and of right age to play is back on Playstation back in the day, but again, horror game wuss. Was it less scary on PS1 graphics? Or that would have been scary by the standards of the time
