>disembodied heads that blink at you as decoration and enemies that scream like banshees means that the game is horror
I love blood more than any other FPS ever made but come the fuck on

>>5967725
If shit like Resident Evil or Silent Hill can be considered horror which aren't scary at all, then so can Blood.

>>5967725
it's a horror game in the same way that old universal and hammer films were horror movies

>>5967725
It quite obviously has a horror theme how the fuck could you be THIS contrarian?

>>5967713
Not really, as homage/satire it's really well done but I wouldn't call it's horror elements the best desu. I mean the game never made me feel anything else besides "holy shit this is awesome" and "fuck this cheap bullshit game fuck you"

>>5967757
Because of what >>5967797 said. The only time anyone is ever scared in Blood is from the first screamer encounter. Its not like STALKER for example where certain enemies and areas are designed with the exact intent of scaring the absolute shit out of you.

>it can only be horror if it scares me!
brainlet as fuck

Not so fast, OP.

>>5967713
Next you're gonna say Maniac Mansion and Ghosts 'n Goblins are horror games too.

Speedrunning Ghosts 'n Goblins can get pretty scary. You never know when the RNG will fuck you.

>>5967953
I've never been scared at Friday 13th or Halloween guess they arent horror movies

Why would a game scare you

no lie, Jurassic Park on Sega CD scared me infinitely more

>>5967953
I mean, there are people who think Blood is a better game than Duke Nukem 3D. That alone is pretty scary.
