Silent Hill 3 broke my streak of never looking anything up. I’ll never forget getting stuck on the Shakespeare puzzle. You literally need to know his classics! _Nothing_ is in game. No note, no clue, no guessing. You’ll need to be on Hard difficulty for that puzzle variation.
That was my first game in the series to beat so I had to use a guide. 13 year old me was dumb. But I feel I'll still need it. It's next on my list. I just rebeat 1 and 2. Playing through the entire series again. Curious if 3 is still my favorite. So far it'll probably be. 1 and 2 aged bad
Evil Within 2 is my favorite horror game. That's with me being a diehard horror fan. RE may be my favorite series but that game blew me away. Story and open semi open world. And perfectly gameplay. Much better than 1.
20:32 Correction: on Akumu mode if you die you don't start the whole game all over again from the start you just die in one hit and start from the previous check point. Akumu mode is basically the nightmare difficulty but you die in one hit.
Fatal Frame 2 is easily among my top horror games. I never found it difficulty BUT for me it has been by far the scariest game I've played. I remember to this day my hear pounding out of my chest near the end of the game.
I havent played Pathologic or Bloodborne but I played Forbidden Siren and for me it was the hardest horror game ever more than Evil Within, , combat can be hard but you can get used to it except aiming with rifle which is the worst aiming in any game I played , It is stealth game but the crrawling speed is so slow you will end up walking and alerting enemies, you basically need guide to finnish the game and get all collectibles and the worst one is that despite some levels having checkpoint if you previously picked up collectible or did some important step you need to do to unlock next level and you die and load checkpoint that stuff is removed and you need to restart an level. Yeah I went on a rant but Forbidden Siren is game that I liked but I would never recommend to anybody. Also the main antagonist is called DatatSUSHI.
Before playing and beating Bloodborne I would’ve said it doesn’t count as horror, but after playing it recently I definitely think it counts as horror. Maybe, not survival horror, but action horror. The environments are creepy and I would feel unsettled, and some of the monster and boss designs are disturbing. Really great body horror. It’s not scary like a silent hill or resident evil game, but I still count it as horror.
@@TotallyTubularJonathan You definitely do, it's one of the best, richiest and scariest horror game series ever along with Project Zéro and Silent Hill, but the first one is difficult as hell. The second one, the best of the series by far, rebalanced the difficulty and is much more playable and player-friendly, while still being somewhat challenging. I definitely recommand to dive into this criminally underrated trilogy and the extended universe around it (the mangas, the movie adaptation, etc)
Siren is hard but requires a guide to beat. The puzzles are like legit things you can't figure out normally and the combo of that with extremely difficult stealth made me realize it's not the game for me. Really heartbreaking as I always regretted not beating it but after playing it on PS4 I had to accept it's only for guide users.
@@I_Am_The_Social_Reject Try the second entry. Believe me, it's much more accessible and player friendly (and à much better game overall). I almost never used à guide to béat it (only one or two times, cause I'm dumb), and the difficulty with the enemies is far more reasonable. You can choose the difficulty level too.
Without a doubt, the hardest horror game is fear and hunger. Every random battle is a gamble where the odds are always against you, especially in the early game.
Silent Hill 3 is definitely one of my favorite horror games. Simplistic yet horrifying, and even if I play on easy and normal, I just like the tanky computer game like controls, which makes the game so scary when trying to run away from enemies
You mean Silent Hill 3 is on this list? Oh wait of course it is because this guy insists on spoiling every single one of his videos by putting the majority of his picks in the thumbnails
Yo i think i recommend horror games from Fictional games, especially, amnesia: dark decent, Amneia: bunker and soma. I think you'll love it, especially soma because of its story and atmosphere.
id put fear and hunger above bloodborne for sure, one of the most brutal experiences ive had but also a really great game that you will fall in love with if you are crazy enough to try and get all the endings.
@@anlraider1954 I really want to try it but I dislike Steam's methods of "ownership". Is there any other place where I can purchase it to support the creator?
A really difficult horror game that gets slept on because its a rts horror survival hybrid is Alien's Dark Descent. Definitely one of the most tense games ive played. Darkwood also being an honorable mention
I know it's technically not a horror game (more of a stealth immersive sim), but Thief: Gold (or The Dark Project) has some of the creepiest atmosphere and moments I've experienced in gaming. Missions like Down in the Bonehoard, The Sword, The Haunted Cathedral, and especially Return to the Cathedral are incredibly eerie and have plenty of horror elements. It's also on the tougher end of the spectrum for immersive sims (though still easier than Thief II: The Metal Age). It might be a stretch to count the game as horror, though.
For me, The Evil Within 1 is the best. The more linear, focused level design makes it a lot more tense IMO and I thought the areas were more memorable. I didn't hate the "open world" in TEW2, but I found it pretty easy to cheese the enemy AI in a lot of situations and killing enemies around a corner while in stealth is very OP. I love the atmosphere in 1 and in regards to the story, it's one of those stories that is better when you know less about the specifics. I did beat the game on Nightmare on "new game" but I never did that other special "die in one hit" mode but I feel like I probably could do it with enough patience. I did beat hardcore "Dead Space 2"!
What about re3? Since there's no "normal" difficulty if you play it on hard it's a pretty difficult game. (I think hard is considered normal difficulty since it's just easy and hard)
Eat your sushi bro. So I think for me really the most difficult horror games are the ones where killing everyone isn't the solution (except Bloodborne) maybe because killing stuff is almost all I do in video games. So I guess those were Outlast, RE7, Amnesia 1, Alien Isolation. Bloodborne is really hard but it's a souls game more than anything else imo, thanks ! ❤
I had a fatal frame game on the xbox as a teenager and I thought it was really scary haha, but I did not find it interesting so I never got far in it. I have very little experience with survival horror games but I thought silent hill 4 was pretty difficult, but I also found that game scary and I think that played partly into that :p i was a very scared teenager.
For me it has to be Silent Hill 4. Not just hard but also clunky. Which is a shame cos it really has some interesting ideas, great music and an amazing atmosphere, Not to mention it is genuinely creepy.
Can we get virtual tomatoes to throw for every jackass that copy pastes the obligatory “nuh uh that game isn’t hard, it’s so easy. It’s one of the easiest games I’ve ever played.” One of the most annoying groups in gaming.
Heyo man, wanted to comment that I really enjoy the video, but the generic electric guitar music in the background is super distracting with the topic being about horror games. Maybe use something more in line with the main topic? There's thousands of chill songs from horror games that you could've used.
Code Veronica? Really? I guess it is hard, I just remember beating the shit out of it on both Dreamcast and PS2. Renting it for the weekend and slamming through it.
Bloodborne is not hard (Outside the DLC). I played it with my brain turned off and just relied on reflexes and unga bunga. It was the 2nd easiest Fromsoft game for me .The others on the list were more challenging cause I had to use my brain with puzzles and memorization.
Here we go. We have another jackass that insists their experience with a game is objectively definitive. Thanks man, I had to go one whole day before seeing another one of these “so and so Isn’t hard. I played with my feet while standing on telephone pole and I didn’t die once.” What a clown
Visage is unplayable without a walkthrough there is no sense of direction at all and the final puzzle to get the good ending no way in hell anyone could have figured it out on their own, Cry of Fear has a MASSIVE learning curve with the combat and there are tons of enemies with different quirks. On top of that the weapons you get in general are dog shit even when you start getting the shotgun and the assault rifle. Also, the babies fuck my life I hate those little bastards. Hunt Showdown, get all the way to the carriage with the bounty then get merked by people who have 1000+ hours. Dead by Daylight, the knight, nuff said
Okay people that say that souls and souls like games aren't hard are lying to you to everyone to make it seem easy cause that's how people are they love to lie but even a season veteran of these games they are hard how do you know they are telling the truth too we can't see them playing the game which makes my point valid so don't listen to them they are lying
Apparently you still haven't realized how many views you lose by spoiling so much of the list in your thumbnails. People will look at your thumbnails and be like "oh yeah..those games, sure" and then immediately scroll past your video to find something else to watch. Keep ignoring my critique though.
