Amnesia killed the horror genre

[Tanshaydar]

I completed the first game on Impossible, but I still had plenty of ammo and health packs when I finished the game.

I still don't get why people even compare these two games. Dead Space is an action game with cheap scares. Why make it hard for yourself? If you run out of ammo, you'll just die because you can't hide from the enemies. It would make the game frustrating. I liked the first one, but I can't really call it horror. If it had more moments like the one where you couldn't kill the enemy, then it would actually be scary. Better yet, make it so that you can't kill the enemies for good.

You cheated or you found a way to kill anything with just one single shot; which I couldn't find. Or it was your second playthrough that you had upgraded weapons, which is not meant to be scary at all.

Comparing games is something different. I can easily compare Diablo and Super Mario here. And there are enemies you cannot kill. If you really played, you could remember regenerators. I won't spoil anything for the second game.

Why do you keep assuming that we have only played Dead Space on the easiest difficulty?

Well, everything I say can easily be complete trash if it depends on how you play.
However on hardcore (2nd one), there were many places that I had no ammo and used limbs to protect myself. I mean, how anyone can have "lots of ammo & upgrade" on these difficulties, was I missing some "full of items that you cannot carry all of them in your inventory" rooms?
