A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Kind of crazy to think that AI in games has never really evolved past this game. In many cases modern games have far worse AI than FEAR,

Check out Six Days in Fallujah. Procedurally generated levels and the AI is super aggressive. They react to mic chatter and flashlights and they will flank your ass immediately

I’ll never forget I got this game around when it came out, which made me about 11. For some reason I was too stupid to realize this was a horror game based on the name and cover. I just read, “First Encounter Assault Recon”. The first jump scare had me panic unplug my ps2. I later worked up the courage to beat the whole game, which ended up being one of my favorite gaming experiences and got me into the horror genre. I go back and play through every few years on GoG.

That’s wild, I just bought this last night on the GOG sale. I played it many years back and it scared the piss out of me.

If you're more into shooters than horror games, I can mildly recommend f.e.a.r. 3, partly because I happen to hold the world record in the coop speedrun. It's an ok game, though the community likes to pretend it never existed because it's really more of a shooter than a horror game.
