I don’t think they’re comparable styles of horror. Alien is about being powerless while you’re constantly being hunted. You can’t relax because you don’t know when the Alien is going to round the corner or when you can leave your safe space. Dead Space is about defending against a constant onslaught of gruesome enemies, in a gruesome setting, and with jump scares to render all locations unsafe. You can’t relax because you’re either in a firefight with too little ammo or probably about to be.

The best part is buying an open world game with 200 hours of gameplay and then after thoroughly exploring the first few areas you get bored and bee-line the rest of the main story and end up done with the game after 17 hours.

Always seems to happen with me, only exception for that was, Assassin’s Creed, Borderlands, Elden Ring.

Well you have an advantage here because I did not play fallout 1 and 2. I know, I read that it is in many ways better than all of the titles after that, but during that time it went past me. It wasn't really the type of game that I played and before fallout 3 I never even heard of it (never heard of the elder scrolls before oblivion either for that matter)

So you could certainly be right they should be in there, I forgot to research them because as you said that time is already stacked.

But it's not only that, I thought I would have covered it with a lot of the big names that are similar in that regard, and create standards for those type of games.

I might have made a mistake by listing neverwinter nights instead of those two games though, or at least one of those two. I listed neverwinter nights , because it is also used for educational purposes in video game development.

I also played neverwinter nights.
