What game is too terrifying to finish for you? (kbin.social)

Mine is Silent Hill 3. Its subject matter revolves around the fears of a teenage girl, like death of a parent, puberty, unwanted pregnancy (with a demon fetus, no less), mirrors (THAT ROOM shivers), and stalkers. The atmosphere is so oppressive and I cant play the game without having something else playing in the background, its that horrifying. I managed to finish Silent Hill 2 last year, which was like conquering my own fears. One day, I'll finish SH3. One day.

I tried playing Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and although the gameplay was fun the story was just a little too dark for me. I quit about halfway through bc it just wasn’t a fun experience.

You know I thought I was going to be unique with this one.

This game gave me so much fucking anxiety that I couldn't finish it. The dark atmosphere and the constant whispering in your ear made me feel like I was straight up hallucinating. It fucked with my head so hard.
