For me, it is any city/building construction game like City Skylines, Two Point Hospital, Planet Zoo etc.

    Most horror games. My startle threshold is through the floor, even when I know a jumpscare is coming it still gets me a lot of the time. I also hate feeling panicked and chased.

      Imo horror games are best enjoyed in a group anyway. Get the ballsy yolo friend to stream for everyone else

        Hot potato couch co-op is the best, because you can jumpscare your friends irl before the game does it and laugh about it, then everyone laughs harder when the game scares the crap out of you…

      I’m the same way. I think it has to do with being the one who has to make the decision to keep moving forward as opposed to just passively observing

      Same. I love watching people play games like Amnesia or the SCP ones, but I could never play them myself.
