I beat the game. It's not scary, and it's boring.

Does anyone feel let down? There are almost no boss battles here. In fact, I'll just flatout say it. There are no boss battles. The last 'boss' can be beat by a blindfolded 8th grader. I played the entire game on Hard with only the plasma cutter and found it extremely easy and menial. I wasn't scared at all, and I played it in the dark with headphones on. This is just one big disappointment.

The final boss fight did feel extremely lackluster, so much in fact that I was able to beat it with 12 frames in 6 minutes

not gonna be scary when we already played the games back in the day when we were way younger, we grew up and nothing is scary anymore

I think you may be right about this.

Anhedonia is a real thing.

try the original or dead space 2 the sound design in those games are much better, but yea i agree the boss fights suck ♥♥♥♥. Its no RE2 remake but I enjoyed most of it.

[Denoloco]

Yeah, I could ♥♥♥♥ my pants in the original but not here. As the other guy said, you grow and it's not that scary anymore. Though I still enjoyed the game very much.

Just remember to always set the mood while playing horror games! Be by yourself, play in the dark if you can and turn up the volume while wearing headphones! I don't scare easy, especially at my age, but while playing it as I described I did have a few moments where the game caught me off guard! Good times!

Also helps if you aren't charging through the game like it's a COD match.

I like the game but I can't say that I ever found it (remake or original) really that scary.

It does have a great atmosphere and the sound design is amazing.

That's the problem with the horror genre, it revolves around the fear of the unknown, the element of surprise.

Once you have at it, you're bound to be ready for the most of it, hence why games like Resident Evil whether we like it or not took an action turn because you cannot be scared forever. Which is why gameplay needs to be top notch to keep the players interested if the horror can't be in the front seat as much.

One thing for sure, playing with limitations such as 1 life does get your blood pumping when under pressure.

Bosses aren't supposed to be scary: you can feel when a boss fight is coming, looking the scenario around you, listening the music variation, etc. They prepare you to fight a boss.

Necromorphs , in general, aren't scary. The game atmosphere is.

I was an adult when it came out in 2008 and didnt find it that "scary" then either really

[Tiny Trees]

I think it's brilliant.

[Pleiadian Chloe]

I like it and I'd say I found it tense in the beginning but thats it really. I never played the original.

I can't get over how they slowed combat down so much. Everything feels so much more clunkier and less reflexive.
