I am legimentaly scared of this game. Help?
I've had this game in my Libary for almost a year at this point, I played 4 stages and stopped because I got tired, but ever since everytime I open this game I just get a terrible feeling in my stomache and just quit before I begin. I'm not kidding. So anyways I am essentially asking how to not be a ♥♥♥♥♥. Any tips or tricks? Thanks.

Turn on the lights in your room? Don't play with headphones?

Or try playing Amnesia, Alien: Isolation or Outlast. If you can survive those, you can play anything then.

Man this game is not scaring at all, like there are not even jumpscares in the whole game. Doom 3 was way more frightening than this one.

Play all the deadspace games then come back, you'll be right after that

Maybe it's the infrasonics of the main menu sounds. That can make you feel sick, if you are sensitive to soundwaves below 20Hz.
Since you played 4 levels, did you feel sick in your stomache as well in-game?
So,.. don't use sound on the main menu but turn up the sound in-game only?

Just remember, the demons you're slaughtering are way more afraid of you than you are of them.
And you'll have the firepower to prove it.

Just had to think of that awesome Review someone posted for Doom on Steam.

I don't get scared easily but when i played the first Amnesia with headphone in the dark it was something. :D

The only time I ever got "scared" in a Doom game was that cheap mirror jumpscare in Doom 3.

I actually get what you're saying to an extent, DOOM can be kind of stress induicing in the way it builds you up and up and up and then throws you into a room with a lot of monsters. It's for that reason I try to avoid playing at night (since I want to relax). The best way to get through it is, as others have said, play in the day, maybe lower the volume a little and try to change your perspective. The point of DOOM isn't that the monsters are dangerous to you, it's that you are dangerous to the monsters.

Keep trying, it gets easier over time. Hey, I'm an old man and it still doesn't get that scary ... but I've been stuck a few times and that's where I get frustrated. So just keep on truckin'!
