It can definitely be a certain segment of a game, even ones unrelated to horror. For me, Resident Evil 2 was quite unsettling, especially concerning William Birkin and his daughter... After acquiring the G virus, he searches for her daughter hoping to conceive her with the G embryo, which he manages to do... The video should begin at the moment I intended.
Bioshock definitely ranks among the top. The entire collection is impressive. And the moment when you transform into a strogg in Quake 4.
I understand your point, but I didn’t respond like they did in RE2 with William. Still, I can see what you mean.
That's actually a good question...I don't honestly know. Most recently, I've played SOMA. That was a really good horror game, one that I really enjoyed as it was more of the psychological kind of horror. This is one of the most thought-provoking game stories I've ever played and has kept me up at night more than any monster ever could.
Amnesia: The Dark Descent offers a profoundly disturbing experience, but the core impact comes from the final segment where you discover detailed accounts of real torture techniques (historically accurate as far as I understand). This revelation left a lasting impression on me.
