Not because they're the most dangerous ones, or even the most vivid ones, but the way it's pulling you into it is exactly the opposite of what the brain can handle. It makes your brain believe that what is happening is actually real - not because you're dumb, but because the brain takes no risks. So, if Amnesia doesn't scare you at all, I would say you have some serious problems. RE: Who would even play this game ?? - Bridge - 10-15-2012 (10-15-2012, 03:12 PM)Wapez Wrote:I agree. Either they are faking or are just incapable of being afraid. It has nothing to with how "developed" the mind is. In fact, a general rule of thumb is that the younger you are the more likely you are to be affected by the stress the game puts you under.(10-15-2012, 07:48 AM)kadal65 Wrote: i'm a 12 tear old kid ,who Finish Amnesia ,and i get killed in amnesia 2timesPlaying Amnesia will probably give a lot of people the scariest experiences in their lives.

So, if Amnesia doesn't scare you at all, I would say you have some serious problems. Also, how can anyone not "understand true fear"? You think fear is something you acquire by playing video games and having a fully developed brain? It's a basic human function. Everybody understands it. RE: Who would even play this game ?? - Deep One - 10-15-2012 I think he meant that you have to immerse yourself when playing a horror game like Amnesia, to "understand true fear" RE: Who would even play this game ?? - Robby - 10-15-2012 (10-15-2012, 06:49 AM)kadal65 Wrote: ok,so hear this i'm a 12 year old kid who finish Amnesia the dark decent and i only die two times in Amnesia, killed by the water monster and the second is killed by the grunt because i didn't hear it spawn,every Youtuber i watch on Youtube usualy get scared sh!tles when they see any enemy,but me i didn't get scared,when i see a monster in Amnesia or being chase by one.I usualy get scared a litlle when a enemy is right behind me or i just walk directly to a enemy,but jumpscares that scared me every timeTo achieve what this fella did, just play in a "bright as the sun" room, make sure volume's at 0%, play from an iPhone, and there you are. Either way, immersion is the key. If others wouldn't be immersed, they probably wouldn't be scared. But they were scared, which implies that they were, in fact, immersed. |
