i think it has a lot to do with what the stakes are/who's playing... but really a death by an enemy in horror is probably more secondary to the atmosphere the game wants to achieve? and what the story is i guess... i mean part of the reason you feel scared playing Alien for example is the constant threat of being found by said alien, as opposed to wanting to explore a haunted house where all the tension is focused achieved via sound, music and jumpscares...

that’s exactly the part i’m wondering about. the fear is being found and chased by the alien, but would that fear exist if being caught meant some alternative to the traditional “death and restart”? the fear doesn’t necessarily come from the actual “Death” so much as just being pursued and (comparatively) powerless.

rivanipiratequeen a réagi à votre billet “given that the exact nature of the conduit gene is still ambiguous,...”

i dunno if you ever saw misfits but there's this one character that could control milk and honestly it would not surprise me in the slightest if we ever got a condiut with lactokenisis....

it didn't feel all that empty to me but having not played it for a while a lot of it doesn't seem all that memorable. like out of the different zones only the emprise du lion and crestwood really stuck out to me.

you're great and awesome and also the best (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

uh it turned out that a lot of these were kind of US-centric and i had no idea what the fuck they were talking about but i tried my best

[ This or That ]

Rules: Always post the rules. Answer the 11 questions and write 11 new ones. Tag 11 people. Tell them you tagged them.

1. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

I had to google that, 'cause the only time i've seen those words was on a lip balm my friend brought me back from a holiday to America?? I don't think they do them over here, so I just thought it was nice flavoured lip balm. You learn somethin new every day.

2. Favorite Superhero?

spidey all the way!! though DD always has a special place in my heart. I probably own more DD comics than any others, to be honest. 

3. Pencil or Pen?

pen. mainly cause I chew my stationary like a freakin beaver, so if i use pencils, i get wood in my teeth. ew.

4. If everyone had at least one deformity, what would yours be?

ooh weird question. maybe webbed toes? or an extra finger, or something? something to do with toes or fingers.

5. How many pairs of shoes do you own?

twelve? I think twelve. that includes transparent docs, stilettos with zombies on them and docs with the panel of hell from Hieronymus Bosch's The Garden of Earthly Delights on them. I know you didn't ask that i'm just really proud of my shoes sorry

6. What are your zombie apocalypse plans?

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMEBODY TO ASK THIS ALL MY LIFE OH MY GOD okay i sat down with a bunch of my friends ages ago to do this, i even conspired with other members of the group to make sure that they'd kill my second in command if he got too power hungry. i defended my cat with an axe once, and we also have a pretty nice sledgehammer, so i'm gonna use those as my main weapons, and hopefully eventually me and libby can set up in an abandoned mall/leisure centre, preferably with a pool so we can drown stray zombies in or hide in it stiles and derek season 2 style. 

i'm so serious about the zombie apocalypse you have no idea

7. How many pieces of jewelry are you wearing right now?

none. i don't wear jewelry very often, actually, even though i like it

8. Favorite color nail polish?

lime green. i wear a lot of orange, and i like to clash enough to make people nauseous.

9. Oreos or Chips Ahoy?

Oreos. but i've never had chips ahoy, again, i don't think you can get them over here

11. What’s the most played song on your iPod or mp3 player? (do people still have those?)

it's actually Crucifixus from the Repo! soundtrack, but that's only 'cause it was playing on repeat for atmosphere next to a spooky shrine of food at my halloween party, so the real most played one is Dead Souls by Joy Division.
