I have never been a fan of horror games. My friend nearly gave me a heart attack while I played Amnesia, and my other friend hooked me up with Outlast, an indie horror game in the same vein as Amnesia: there is no way to protect yourself, you must run OR ELSE. It truly is scary and it went down as the first horror game I ever finished because the story made me want to see what happened to Miles Upshur, the character I controlled. While eventually, the scares wore off, the enemies becoming boring after the sadistic Dr. Trager, the game then throws a wrench in that by Introducing The Wallrider, a nearly invisible nanite-being that tears both you and your other enemies apart. Good job keeping me scared, Red Barrels.
