Horror games. Slow burn or action packed?

I recently picked up Amnesia The Dark Decent remaster and was delighted to find out it holds up pretty well. I really see the influences that were passed onto SOMA.

Anyway it had been a while since i played a slower and more atmospheric horror game. Really, i have been into the new Resident Evil games and the remakes. I was really into The Evil Within games and Ghostwire Tokyo as well. Shoot some people would place Doom into the horror genre, but idk if i would agree with that though.

This leads up to my question. Which do you guys prefer? An action/horror experience or something that will have you sweating bullets with every step?

P. S. I heard Madison VR was incredible. Any truth to that?

Outlast is my favorite by far, I’ve replayed it and the Whistleblower DLC like 10 times. It’s the perfect kind of horror where every step feels like a mistake and I'm just sweating the whole time. I think I’ll take the slow-burn type of horror over the action-heavy stuff any day. Haven’t tried Madison VR yet though, but I’ve heard it’s one of those games that’ll just wreck your nerves (in the best way)

Oh yeah Outlast was pretty great in terms of building tension and providing scares at the right moment. Too bad i have an incredibly difficult time finishing games... It may be time to revisit.

Haha can agree with that, I seem to be allergic to finishing games. Even if I get 90% of the way there. And then after a long break and coming back to it I end up just having to start over because I don't even remember what's happening anymore
