Is this game horror?

[Purge]

I frankly hate horror games, I don't mind a few scares here and here that I hate horror games. Such as Metro Light - I know its an awsome game but its too scary frankly for me (though I appreciate the populairty - how does this game rank in that spectrome?

[Pokshayja]

No

I'm not a child (20 years old) but I just can't enjoy myself getting scared. Lets just be clear on that.

It is a bit creepy though right? (I know I'm a wuss don't tell me xD)

[Pokshayja]

It's not creepy at all, sometimes its actually quite the opposite.

Oh. Though the previous bioshocks are horror right? (thinking about bundle)

And I have a gtx 670 - what would my fps be?
And decent mods to max it out?

[Pokshayja]

Bioshock 1 is sometimes creepy though not really horror, Bioshock 2's not creepy.
On your gpu 90-60 fps @ Ultra. There are no mods.

Yeah saw a few vids - too creepy for me - I'll buy infinite though.

Just wondering compared to a ps3/xbox does it look alot better?

[Pokshayja]

MUCH better.

Not nearly as creepy as the first 2 bioshock games which were straight up horror shooters. But this game has horror roots, meaning the game isn't nearly close to horror, but slight elements of the game are horror like. I too can't enjoy myself playing horror games (bilieve me, I have tried enjoying them, Amnesia and the first 2 bioshocks were scary A/F!) But I really enjoyed this game because you get to see this amazing wonder city in its state of innocence, and watch it fall apart in complete chaos. I would be suprised if you were turned off of this game because of horror elements, but I am not you. I hope this helped cause I would hate to see someone miss out of a game this amazing because of something that isn't there!

No doubt about that with the 94 metascore cx

For me the worse horror is Crysis 2, all those rotting bodies and rats and crap and just Meh.

[Purge]

well the start of what I can't stand lol.

[Pokshayja]

For me the worse horror is Day one Garrys incident.

There's no horror but if you're like me and have absolutely zero tolerance for it, there will be one level that will freak you out. There's also one pretty big jump-scare. Other than that, it's fine. If you were able to finish either of the first two Bioshocks, youll be fine.

bioshock 1 was trying to get in the horror genre, but failed badly.

and as far as i know bioshock infinite gameplay is too sunny to be a horror game (looking at the screenshots from the store).
