Over the past twenty-five years, horror games have grown to become a staple of the video game industry. From survival horror games like Resident Evil to the Lovecraftian terrors of FromSoftware’s Bloodborne , horror permeates video games across multiple genres. But players need not have played every single Silent Hill title since 1999 to get in the game - there are many horror games accessible to even the least experienced gamer, many of which share traits with the flagship horror films fans genre fans know and l

I’ve noticed a trend in video games recently, and while it shocked me at first, I’m not entirely sure that I don’t like it. However, I definitely know that I don’t understand it. Why on earth do so many of you crave being eaten by video game characters? I ask not out of disgust nor to kinkshame, but out of genuine curiosity. Please, explain to me why so many of you enjoy it. Ple

Dead By Daylight is full of controversy and gamer anguish as the developers struggle to communicate efficiently with their player base and the player base struggles to communicate with other players. When you first play the game, it's all in good fun and you can't understand the complaints most people have for the game. But once you hit higher ranks and have more than 200 hours under your belt, you start to understand the dr

With friends, you know exactly what everyone is doing and that everyone is at least trying their best. No need to solo-queue with players you have no information on who end up hiding the entire match. You can trust your friends....proba

I imagine this is not necessarily a new idea, and I know vore in general exists, and people who like vore and like video games no doubt want to combine them. But with Lady D especially, it felt like an incredibly mainstream idea. Has everyone just decided this is hot now and I’ve missed the memo? Was there something in particular about Lady D and her timing, being revealed a year deep into the pandemic when you’re all pent up? We’ve been getting eaten and ripped to shreds in video games for years, so what is it about Lady Dimitre

For one thing, it might be because she’s female, and straight women tend to have an easier time objectively describing another woman as ‘hot’ without worrying that it makes them seem gay. It’s why we have the term ‘girl crush’ so straight women can gush over Margot Robbie, Taylor Swift, or Kate Upton while still being straight. We don’t really have ‘boy crush,’ because typically straight men don’t comment on the attractiveness of other men. This is not a completely consistent rule across all straight men, but if Lady D had been Laddy D and had strutted over in combat boots, a rough denim jacket, and the abs and face of Zac Efron, I’m not sure we’d be having this conversation. And yeah, I know the Dead by Daylight guide By Daylight idol is male and people still want him to rip them open. Like I said, I’m not entirely sure how this all works. It doesn’t seem like Trickster has anywhere near as much attention as Lady D eit

Similar to Cabin in the Woods , what starts off as a basic slasher premise soon expands into a much bigger story with supernatural undertones, one which is sure to please horror fans across the board. Until Dawn also features a bonus offering for movie fans in its cast of recognizable voice and motion capture performers, which includes Jordan Fisher, Hayden Panettiere, and Academy Award winner Rami Ma

This is not your typical zoomer doom humor either. I’ve seen the tweets and the fan art and the Reddit threads. This is not "please devour me and spare me the torments of this mortal coil." This is "I’m horny, please eat me!" I’d say it makes my jaw hit the floor, but that would probably turn you on. I don’t know, maybe it needs to be some kind of villainous monster for it to work. I’m still learning the ru

It's unique to itself and, where there are other developers who might have tried to replicate it, they have failed. Be not afraid! You can go back to the game with an open mind and a new perspective. It can be fun again; it just takes some time and the right attit

The Umbrella Corporation, the big bad of the Resident Evil series, is no stranger to gene modification and viruses if it justifies an end. This included infecting humans with the Tyrant virus in order to turn them into beefed up bioweapons. However, this also comes with the downside of extremely diminishing the victim's level of intelligence. To combat this, Umbrella developed a parasite that would act as the brain to the brawn, making the creature able to plan its attacks. Nemesis, as players know him from Resident Evil 3 , was one of the first successful examples of this cohabitat

The Alien franchise has become a juggernaut of horror and sci-fi media, spawning a variety of adaptations including novelizations, comic books, and multiple Alien- themed video games . However, 2014’s survival horror game Alien: Isolation easily takes the chest-burster cake. Set fifteen years after the events of the original film, the game plays homage to its predecessor by focusing on stealth and survival-based gameplay, rather than falling into the common video game trap of repetitive onslaughts of enem
