I wish there was more horror shooters. Blood was a great game and is my personal favourite out of the build engine holy trinity entirely because of the horror aesthetics it has. FEAR is one of my all time favourite games and my favourite shooter hands down. FEAR had great shooting but made several breaks for it for some spooky set pieces that really made the game unique. The suffering is also a game I adore despite how glitchy the PC version I played was. The monsters were all fucked up and the game had a really spooky atmosphere assuming the sound didn't glitch out.
I want more of these kinda spooky shooters where they dont have to be scary or terrifying but just have that general horror look to them while being a really fun shooter. I have seen some that try like singularity which cant decide if it wants to be CoD or not. Then we have dead space which went the way of FEAR in that the third entry is a co-op shooter for some reason. Any recommendations?
There aren't really many games like Blood. Perhaps try its sequel or some Doom mods?
Lincoln Mitchell
Spooking and shooting just really don't go hand in hand because horror heavily relies on your own feeling of powerlessness. Which in turn doesn't exist if you can shove a shotgun into the witch's face,
Austin Davis
I guess painkiller was kinda horrory in some levels.
Sebastian Hill
By the way what you say about having powerful weapons in a horror setting is not true at all, since in most SH games you can actually get a fucking shotgun and other firearms.
What Silent Hill did was simply give you a limited amount of ammunition, and also have monsters spawn infinitely while in the streets, additionally they wouldn't respawn indoors normally but certain events when progressing the story would respawn them, or even add/change them and their position. On top of all that bosses really needed you to bring your top guns and tons of ammo with you.
So basically the games gave you big guns and ammo for them, but trapped you in a series of circumstances that forced you to only use them intelligently and sparingly, saving most of your stuff to face the bosses. This can be replicated in a FPS just fine, the problem is that FPSes are usually done by western devs and for the most part western devs don't understand jack shit about balance and finesse when designing a video game so most of this is completely alien to them.
John Robinson
While not a full horror shooter, I think the Dam and Notre Dame levels of TimeSplitters 2 did a pretty good job. Especially the Dam level on hard because until the zombie outbreak, it's a pretty typical Goldeneye/Perfect Dark style mission.
Jacob Davis
I disagree, you can make a spooky shooter if there is a feeling of vulnerability. Though they aren't necessarily shooters per say, I would like to bring up the Forbidden Siren and the Manhunt games. In the Siren games, you generally don't start with any weapons at all, sometimes you'll have to sneak/run from enemies unarmed, you can't take a whole lot of hits, and since their versions of "zombies" can come back to life even after you think you got them down, the point is to complete objectives. And the same applies with Manhunt 1, guns genuinely feel lethal sometimes and can easily result in a game over.
Landon Richardson
I didn't mean to say that a gun automatically takes away the scare factor. If you've no ammo for it, you might as well not have a gun in the first place.
What really gets the gears grinding still is the powerlessness you experience towards the monster. In some horror games they are entirely unkillable, and in others like Silent Hill, there simply is no end to them so that they - metaphorically speaking - also are unkillable.
Charles Harris
I think in harder difficulties they also spawn infinitely indoors, definitely adds to feeling powerlessness
Jaxon Mitchell
Siren i think was a bit too extreme on the opposite end.
Never having any weapons, having all the enemies essentially immortal that you could only disable briefly, and often having to escort another character that is also unarmed, and the utter inability of picking up weapons from enemies, plus snipers everywhere… I mean it did make for some interesting level design in terms of enemy placement, entire levels that are like "ok there's a guy here let me find a way to get past him with a complicated distraction" is a neat idea in theory, but very frustrating and boring from a gameplay perspective.
From Siren 2 onwards they tried to fix this by having you be able to at the very least pick up weapons from enemies, but there's some missions still where you're a child, and if enemies even just come near you it's insta-game over.
There's some neat ideas in the Siren series but gameplay wise there's many decisions that don't enrich the gameplay and are straight up detrimental to it.
Ryder Turner
I wonder what would be a nice middle ground, because I do agree it does get frustrating from time to time.
Adrian Robinson
Stalker?
Kevin Clark
Doom 3 co-op is still one of the best horror experiences I've played.
Anthony Thomas
In some places it could get somewhat spooky, but most of the time you're either steamrolling cheeki breekis or quickloading every time a dog so much as scratches you
Zachary Taylor
-Start the player out with a weak melee weapon that can break, but never completely unarmed (aside the child level) -Siren 2 style picking up enemy weapons -Only one "child" level max per game (but make it good and memorable, like the infamous trapped in the house with the shibito family in FS1) -Less NPC escorts -Massively improve the AI of NPC escorts -Either make NPC escorts able to dodge enemy attacks sometimes, or make them slightly more competent at combat in general -Slightly more firearms -Slightly more ammo for the firearms -Make shibito brains even more dangerous -Make shibito brains very beefy and tanky -Make shibito brains faster in general -If you kill a shibito brain, every other shibito in the level goes down permanently until you finish the level
Wyatt Ortiz

Nolan Long
Unloved.
VERY unpolished at this point, but plays a bit like Doom. Just a little bit.
Grayson Bailey
I've long since forgotten what I even liked about stalker. the shooting is iron sight, stop & pop garbage. The zone has never even been a quarter realized and has always been disappointing. The scripted segments feel cheap and underwhelming and predictable, the AI works on a good day 25% of the time, and the games all have a point where they clearly fall apart and the developers stopped giving a shit. SoC after the Bar, CS after the swamp (lmao nice job gsc), and CoP at least doesn't go to shit until pripyat, so 70% of the game is pretty alright, but call of pripyat is the easiest one with the least interesting iteration of the zone.
The more I think about it, the more I realize the games are propped up on the ethereal idea of atmosphere, which falls apart under any moderate level of scrutiny once you enter an area and see loners running around in circles panting with their head locked to their sights trying to kill something that had no reason to aggro them in the first place but during the loading process the level mismatched some numbers and forgot to consider that 6 ruined buildings occlude the AI from across the map that had aggroed it in the first place so you have a fucking clown shouting drunken slavic mumbles while the rest of their camp is having idle small talk.
Ian Murphy
Horror atmosphere but not horror gameplay games are great and there should be more of them in general. Unfortunately everyone's still caught up in tired post-apocalypse and/or FUCKDAPOLIZE edginess to do anything interesting with darker settings.
Henry Ortiz
that's really nice textures you've got there… care to tell me which mod are you using?
Hudson Cook
And it's still better and more complex than most shooters out there.
STALKER is so popular because there is nothing out there that is trying to dethrone STALKER. Every other FPS out there is a Call of Duty clone.
David Brown
Just play the Doom2 wad version. Its better in my opinion
Jaxon Peterson
Whoops meant to reply to
Joshua Lopez
its really not complex at all, most other shooters are just as brain dead. A simple inventory system doesn't do much to make hold mouse 2 to make bullets go down the middle shooting particularly complex.
that's a bit of a retarded level of hyperbole there m8
Leo Howard
Maybe what he was trying to say is that every FPS is trying to be a competitive multiplayer shooter?
Lucas Ward
he's still completely wrong?
Christian Clark
So what are modern FPS games that are more complex than STALKER?
And don't pretend ARMA is a valid choice.
Benjamin Murphy
Well I don't personally play recent FPS games but I can't really think of anything that disproves him.
Brody Morris
Try Undying. The focus is a lot more on the spooky than on the shooting, but it might be up your alley.
Asher Hernandez
Let's start off with the fact that every Stalker game should be played in Master difficulty Not really, sometimes you'll just have to advance on the enemy and hip fire away. Shooting from cover is an important aspect of any game that tries to at least a bit realistic, grenades and launchers being a way to spice things up. Opinions That's because they are, I don't think anybody liked Stalker for the storyline, at least I didn't There are some official and unofficial patches that make it better, though it's not perfect in the slightest Not really, SoC Pripyat was quite the ride, CS abandoned hospital kept me on my toes, but CoP does get weak once you find Strelok It's the easiest one indeed, though there are still some interesting places to explore, the giant craters for example Just another day in the Zone
Noah Jenkins
not really interested in more complex games, interested in good games. Since shooting is the main mechanic of a shooter, stalkers shooting isn't much more complex than cod. At best it has some minor bullet travel which behaves a bit awkwardly until they finally made everything function like the vintorez with clear bullet patterns and visible tracers in call of pripyat. You have to mildly account for bullet drop, not really travel considering the bullets move fast enough that it's never too important to compensate for distance.
Generally you're gonna be playing the same if you're using any weapon in stalkers distinct categories. an AK74 may have a few pips lower accuracy than an F2000, but they'll still fulfill identical roles in combat. Same goes for any weapons from the same class of weapons.
I'd like to see shooters focus less on click the targets and more on creative movement options and elaborate level designs. Wouldn't even care if it simplified aiming and weapons behavior in order to put the focus on movement options.
resistance 3 was pretty great, lots of people have trouble getting over the fact it's on a console tho. Killzone Mercenary was also a good game, first good game in that franchise tbh. Was nice having stealth be a good option in it, and each style of play is well accommodated.
Jose Walker
Oh, okay, so you got fuckall, now I can hide your ID without any regrets.
Grayson Howard
well you were easy. Nice to know you still can't criticize 5 year old games in a nearly 10 year old franchise
Oliver Long

Angel Cook
What about Cry Of Fear or Afraid Of Monsters? Do those count as well?
Also there really has to be more horror games with Harsh Noise soundtracks. Embed related for the sort of music that would belong on one.
Ryder Williams
What is wrong with killing them with a knife
Logan Morgan
cry of fear is a great comedy game that is very underrated
Gavin Martin
In your second run, maybe. My first runs was legitimately unnerving. There's something about twitching low poly screaming assholes that makes me really uncomfortable.
Luis Thomas
That's actually how I dealt with the two burers in Jupiter, shooting them didn't do shit and they kept lobbing my grenades away
Ian Martin
no i feel it establishes its tone as a comedy once this thing appears in the opening sequence
Aaron Hill
Yeah, nah.
Nathaniel Green
Its a pretty good way of dealing with them in close quarters, what else are you supposed to do when one is right next to you and they just ripped your rifle out of your hands and threw it somewhere
Ian Scott
boo
scared yet? spooky
Hunter Nguyen
Perhaps shooty horror games may not make you shit your pants in sheer terror (unless you are a massive scaredy cat to begin with), but they can at the very least unnerve you or keep you on your toes, like FEAR did. The horror sequences in FEAR weren't super-scary, but they were subtle and tense enough to make you pay attention to the game even if you weren't shooting things. I'd love to see more games like Drakengard or EYE where you are just murdering everything and you have no exact idea what the fuck is going on anymore or what the fuck that thing is.
Was the guitar cover first placed in the game via a mod and then recorded? Because otherwise holy shit, nice attention to detail
Hudson Robinson
This will never not anger me.
Michael Russell
stalker is kinda like cod in the sense that if you dont iron sight you really have no idea where your bullets might go. soc had them locked to an obvious cone of fire in the crosshair but cs/cop made it cod style where not iron sighting means you're shooting with the gun upside down with reverse gravity
Logan Hill
Shut up, nerd.
Nathan Jackson
I tried shooting at them, got myself killed. Tried lobbing nades at them, got myself blown up. Tried to overpower them, got a pipe stuck in my head. At last I decided to pump meds and eat medkits like candy while wailing away at them with my trusty knife
That bleep is just sublime
John Sanders
face is almost as scary as cry of fear damn mod of the year A++ from moddb
Jonathan Gomez
I didn't understand a thing you just said but I agree.
Jaxon Peterson
Pic related. You guide yourself by the bullets instead of wasting time aiming on certain cases. A snork charging at you point blank is one of those cases.
Andrew King
What? Unless you go full automatic for several seconds you know exactly where your bullets end up. I always hipfire headshot snorks
Leo Rodriguez
Shoot a few bullets to judge the direction and then fill your enemy with them. If you git gud you'll be able to do it in less than a second
Brandon Roberts
just pointing out ways this brutal hardcore modern 10 year old pc gamemakes the game pretty easy
there's not a pattern the bullets follow, they have a cone of fire. hipfire doesn't really work and more or less exists to encourage you to not ever use it
Jordan Collins
The cone isn't that big, and if you upgrade your gun it'll become basically non-existent

Andrew Baker
It's "were". Stop talking like a nigger.
Brandon Thomas
There's Doom mods, of course.
But what I'd really like to see is a Horror FPS that gives you an H&R topper with a side saddle, buttstock shell holder, and ammo sling.
There'd be no vacancy on them but that would be all you'd get for the duration of the game and the difficulty settings restrict which of those you can take along with you, with Easy allowing all three.
Explore a tomb, shoot revenants in the head, don't miss, and save enough for the final boss.
Joseph Davis
I know of Thief's spoopy levels, but I was wondering if there were more games/levels out there for stealth horror. Could a concept even work that well?
Jaxon Collins
Yeah I know, though currently I lack the time to have fun in them. One needs quite a bit to insert oneself in the atmosphere and craft stealthy plans for breaking and entering
Isaiah Clark
stealth is pretty conducive to horror considering the penumbra games and amnesia were built on combining stealth and horror with adventure game puzzles.
Henry Evans
bump.
Luis Peterson
RE4 when it turns to night All of a sudden you can barely see your enemies except for their eerie glowing bloodshot eyes in the dark Those enemies are often pretty quiet too, and if you get close on accident, they explode into tentacle and blade gore monsters from inside the people Also you have very limited ammo so no spray and pray
Luis Richardson
I wish I could throttle every last one of you retarded cunts.
Lucas Rogers
Here's that songs original It's better off at a lower volume
Nathaniel Brown
All effective stealth is a horror game by default since the core of a good stealth game is the player's fear of getting caught. That's what the game's tension revolves around, and if a game doesn't make the player apprehensive and frightened at the prospect of getting caught, it's a shit stealth game.
So any good stealth game is a horror game to some extent, although the ability to take down enemies generally reduces the full impact of this quite a bit, as does the usually more comfy atmosphere.
Connor Young
If you're into the atmospheric kind of horror shooter, Scorn is coming out next year.
It will have ammo conservation and the such, but I can't see it being much worse than Resident Evil or Dead Space in that regard.
Thomas Cooper
To anyone who has played it, how is The Darkness for this?
Luis Wright
I have only played the sequel which was pretty shit honestly.
Luis Ramirez
You are the scary thing, it's not horror at all.
Justin Walker
I've only played the second one, practically nothing as far as horror and the gameplay is ok at best. If you're looking for a horror shooter I would not recommend, but it's alright for rip and tear if you just want gratuitous violence.
Elijah Adams
At least use something relevant like SS1/2 if you're going sci-fi horror.
Charles Stewart
...
Noah Bell
Play the game on a challenging difficulty then.
Gavin Collins
That only applies if the game is trying to induce fear. Horror and fear are not mutually inclusive.
Robert Johnson
I wish there was some actual gameplay because the game looks good but I dont even know if its going to be a shooter or an adventure game or something.
Matthew Morgan
I finish the game on plain hard mode and it's still too easy, still get too much ammo from all sorts of places in fact I found so much I could sell half of it without problems. Once I beat it on hard I'm not interested in the next mode up because I just finished it, it isn't that great of a game that I desire to play it again. It's a mediocre hallway shooter where enemies aren't threatening at all even close by you, hell I had a dozen ideas to make them scary as all hell AvP 2000 got this right by making them sporadic in actions and actively avoiding you. There's thousands of people who got taken over to top it off why aren't the necro's randomly spawning all the time?
Jaxon Jones
Even in impossible the game ends up giving you shitton of ammo if you're smart about what weapons you use. Dead Space is more action with horror inspired enemies than actual horror.
Kevin Campbell
Then you must be very good at TPS, Hard was decent for me. Not really hard, but nowhere near easy.
The industry certainly imposed its shitty standards. If "Impossible" was available from the start - or if the original had Zealot - it would probably be challenging enough for you.
Really? Embed related is supposed to be scary or hard?
If that means Xenomorphs being too braindead to follow player once he starts moving on a Z-axis, as demonstrated at the beginning and the end of this video, than our ideas of getting things right vastly diverge. Also, a long time ago a friend tried to argue that AvP is superior to AvP 2 (which did, in fact, got a lot of things right), but what he has shown me was a bunch of Xenomorphs running in circles like retards after he climbed a ladder.
Don't remember this from what I've been shown years ago, can't really see it in this video.
Okay, I guess I'm shit at TPS. Must be getting too slow due to age.
I wasn't arguing about that, just about the difficulty.
Eli Parker
Play Underhell.
Chapter 2 never ever
Evan Gonzalez
I'm not so sure about that, there were some great moments of horror in Evil Dead 2
Although I much prefer a horror-ish aesthetic in shooters like Painkiller as opposed to a fps actually trying to scare me like FEAR which is a great game but the only remotely scary things to me in it were the few cheap jump scares
Brody Phillips

Go and play Happy Time Circus 2 and Strange Aeons, both have guns, but are thoroughly horror based. Happy Time Circus 2 is overt horror, with terrifying monsters and encounters, while Strange Aeons is a mundane, Lovecraftian horror with emphasis put on ammo management.
Colton Green
muh absolute nigga I think I've already argued with you in another thread about Singularity. Jericho is supposed to be all over the place and not fai rat all, but I haven't played it. RTTCW is good. Bloodrayne is breddy dank, very early 2000s. There was this one game set in WWII where both german and us soldiers are possessed by ghosts and you play as some smart ass quippy us soldier. I can't remember the name, but I recall you could dual wield different pistols.
It doesn't even need to involve the flood, really, it could be purely with the covenant or ONI, or you could do cosmic horror shit with precursors and have it take place in the forerunner era.
Pretty much what said. I liked it a lot though, especially once I got the hang of the tentacles. Playing co-op is boiled down to you having a specific melee weapon and once Darkness power (de blag hole, locust swarm, etc.) and you go through mostly recycled areas of the main campaign. I only played it solo, wish I'd have had a chance to play it with friends. No horror at all, just fun. execution animations can get annonying, you'll just have to filther them out mentally
Jump scares are to horror what tickling is to comedy.
I don't recall Doom3 having anything outside of jump scares.

Lincoln Davis
This.
City of the Damned: Apocalypse is a great Doom mod that draws very heavily from Blood.
Not to be confused with just "City of the Damned" which is a Doom wad by the same creator which proceeded it. It has a lot of Blood textures, but is mostly a vanilla wad otherwise. Also not to be confused with the first episode of Heretic, which is also called "City of the Damned".
There was an attempt at a Doom conversion for Blood as well, with mixed results. There were some changes to keep it interesting, it's not a direct port.
Doom itself is in the action-horror genre, so not surprisingly there are some good Doom horror mods. Unloved. Nocturne in Yellow (actually a standalone freeware, but on a Doom source port). Aliens mods - you might have to search around a bit because there's a few; the old one from the 90s can still be found and still holds up, but there's at least one modern one that's really good, along with one or two that are less so. Ghoul's Forest mods (there's like 3), maybe. There's a bunch more that I'm less familiar with.
Jace Jones
Jericho was so close to being good in so many ways. It's too bad you spend the whole game reviving your retarded teammates.
Carson Powell

Alexander Ortiz
Looks like what Dante's Inferno should have been
Brody Perry
See, this attitude is why the horror genre is flooded with Amnesia clones.
One doesn't have to be completely powerless and unable to defend themselves for horror to work. I think many of the games listed in this thread are proof of that.
But the idea that this one kind of horror is just holier has become pervasive. I don't know if it's just because it's easier to make or because it gets popular because it's easier for youtubers to overreact to, so they get better exposure.
But they all focus on one approach. To use the literary terms, the device is actually terror, not horror. Terror is anticipatory, horror is reactionary. Terror is about what will, or might happen. Horror is about what is or has happened. Of course they both get wrapped into horror as a genre.
You don't need to be defenseless to be horrified. And even with terror, there's something to be said for challenge presenting it's own sort of anxiety.

Horror and traditional shooter gameplay can go well together, but are there other lesser-explored genres that could be meshed with horror in interesting ways? Racing, mecha, etc?

Jonathan Miller

Adrian Stewart
No. It's boring as fuck. You always end up hiding inside a closet and waiting until [THING] despawns, only for it to spawn again 4 seconds later right behind you. It halts the progression of the game and makes it really fucking annoying.
