True that, yo! LOL. The best part is that the newer horror games (for the most part) are focusing way more on the atmosphere, which is true horror, and not the random jump scares. Take the Silent Hill franchise, for example. The SH games from PS1 and the PS2 gens were mostly about creepy atmosphere, with a couple jump scares, and your character not being the best at combat. The ones from last gen mostly focus on jump scares and combat, with very little effort into going into creating a truly engrossing, creepy atmosphere. Kojima and Del Toro seem to be correcting that with SHs, if PT is anything to go off of.
