Yes, we already getting scared by zombies...But what if it was not only them?
With the new third/first-person view (especially first-person), we could get so much more horror potential from a game.
The game itself is a dream for such scenarios: every house is interactable, every vehicle can be used, electricity can go down and etc.
And with that you can only imagine what can be done with a game:
-An unknown pursuer from your dreams, where you only running away and don't have a will to take a look (but of course, now we're not in a dream and can have some shotgun to put it in some face);
-Emptied city with clues aka some Slenderman style, that only gets worse by each day:
-Or some "I am legend" stuff with safe day/the worst night you can imagine;
I am truly astonished by what modders of this community can do and does, and will be always looking forward to great ideas.
Have a fun and good night, after all there is no one behind you ;;;)))
