Cry of Fear

[Kman]

Well, almost every monster encounter in it was either 1. a monster running up to you from a direction you're not facing and screaming at you and attacking 2. a monster that's in plain view when you enter the area which then screams and attacks you or 3. a monster that pops out from a hiding space when you activate its script and screams and attacks you. Other than a few select encounters (the Saw Runner or the bosses) that pretty much sums up all of the encounters in it, and I'm sorry but I'd hardly consider that scary.

I actually did play through it multiple times to get the different endings out of curiosity, and I still stand by what I said. There's barely any connection to the story throughout the mod aside from the scene with Sofie and the scene with the Doctor, and even then those scenes aren't tied into the story until the the very end of the game. The most it offers story-wise for the rest of it is just "I don't know what's going on and I need to get home. Oh and I hate life and want to kill myself".

Also, even if most of the maps aren't specifically made for PewDiePie, I still don't think they're much better than PewDiePie custom stories. From what I've seen the majority of them revolve around those 3 scare tactics I mentioned up there along with throwing in a lot more Saw Runners, chase sequences, and jumpscares (though, to be fair, I'm basing this off what I saw of the first two sets of user made maps. For all I know they could have gotten a million times better in the latest patch, but by that point I'd lost interest in them).
