 What happened to the Horror genre?

Nothing. Spirit Camera, Fatal Frame V, Her Story, Corpse Party, Kara no Shojo 2.

 

Can people here stop whining about PT? It was trash from the start. Glad to see Konami cancelled it.

Her Story is horror? How?

This threads shows what happened: the audience is super divisive, too picky about everything and nothing is good enough or like the original horror game.

"Slender is not scary, there are just jump scares, blah..."
"Evil within is too action, not really what i really fell in love with on the origianl resident evil..."
"Outlast is notsurvival horror, you can't do anything, just run"

Its ok, you can do whatever you want with your money, but you can't blame companies for not investing on it. Even if those games sell enough to sustain the developer, i don't think that team make those games would be happy with being target of so many nipticking.

 

Every genre is diverse. There are people complaining in the fighting genre that Mortal Komat is all flash no substance, that Tekken should adopt a power meter, and King of Fighters AI is way too cheap, etc etc.

RE4 is not scary at all

I dunno, the last decent horror game I played was Dead Space. Some people say Alien Isolation is good, but haven't played it yet.

 

Why isn't is scary? Sure it's mostly action, but the regenerator scared me so much, I slept with the night light for a couple of days.

Blame FNAF for the most cancerous fandom for any horror game(or indie title in general).

Besides that, I guess they just like JRPG's from seventh gen. hopefully a comeback will be made

 

There are good indie horror games though. Like Outlast, or Amnesia.
