Nightmare House 2

[Klayman]

A better horror game than Penumbra?

If you are scared by Nightmare House 2, then you will probably be scared by games like F.E.A.R. - action-oriented games with elements of horror.

In my opinion, Nightmare House 2 wasn't scary at all and the horror attempts were usually laughably copied from games like F.E.A.R.

If Frictional Games ever play this mod for inspiration, I will stop buying their games. Period.

No. I enjoyed this mod more than Penumbra. What is wrong with this?

I played F.E.A.R. for one hour and I liked those horror elements but I had some trouble with combat.

Maybe those horror elements were copied from F.E.A.R but I never completed that game so most of those events were new to me.

I don't want Frictional games to make a horror game that is combat oriented. I meant other things like...

Spoiler below!

those figures that were following you or rooms that were changing its size and exits (like once in Penumbra: BP).

You don't really go into detail about the encounters bit, so I can't really comment on this. But if you mean encounters with that plastic-looking dead girl, then I really do disagree with you.

More kinds of enemies usually means less variation in the way they attack and behave. And this is true for Nightmare House 2.

More enemies in levels means more slow-moving zombies shuffling towards you as you casually blast them in the face. Horror.

There are less loading screens purely because of the different engine architectures.

I'm not even going to comment on the last point.

Encounters with that little girl was too much F.E.A.R. like I agree on that. I did not found that very scary too.

But i liked the first non-combat encounter with that creepy fast zombie which looks like a Hunter from Penumbra (Tech demo). That was in my opinion very scary when I found my self in a huge dark metal room with your flashlight running out and you know that somewhere around you is something you don't know how and when it is gonna attack.

I did not found those regular encounters with slow zombies very scary. Those fast bastards were much better

True.

I wanted to say with this that in NH2 were more events that surprised me.

I am sorry if I did not write something clearly. I don't speak English very well.
