Which is exactly what happens in NH2.

"Oh look, I got into a new room. Something tells me that light will go out *again* and something will happen with the doors."

.. And yes, never disappointed.

I liked the mannequins and the scene where this hallway kept getting smaller and smaller until you had to look up.

The rest was boring zombie shooter.

I played it and got bored after about half an hour.

Korsakovia was better than this.

No its not.

I've played it since it was just a map on hl2.

The map, the mod, and the 2nd mod.

Theres absolutely nothing scary about this game.

The thing I REALLY liked about it was the manikin scene. That was brilliant.

Condemned 2 did it first. Well the part where they follow you.

No FEAR game is scary at all.

...

at all

Thats your opinion, ive got mine.
FEAR 1 had a creepy atmosphere, a thing i really liked, never knew what was going to happen. Now FEAR 2 was not scary as the first.

In my opinion fear wasn't scary at all either.

It was like resident evil 4

Small creepy part, long action part, small creepy part, rinse and repeat.

I wasn't scared by FEAR 1 until the finale, which was just creepy enough for some genuine fear. I didn't think the creepy atmosphere throughout was cheap or badly done, though.

Korsakovia creeps me the hell out.

I again raise you all Mistake-1, a mod for Half-Life.
Some jump scares are mediocre, but the atmosphere is great and the enemies are a mixture of freaky and depressing.

I didn't think much of it tbh.

It's a mod for Half Life 2, that's why it's polished. He-heh...

The F.E.A.R. project was not scary, but Monolith's other game, Condemned: Criminal Origins - was. It was VERY scary. And stylish.
