Still scared of Slender?

[el_kabong]

Nope. Not afraid of the slender man. The biggest factor for me was the spoof that they did on it in The League. Everytime I see slender man, I think of Bobbum man (equipmonk and all). Instead of dread, I laugh hysterically. Also, the Critical Miss with Splenda Man.

Once something reaches the point of parody, it's hard to stay terrifying.

Even if it reaches parody, it doesn't matter to me for some reason =X I think it's more of the fact that I can literally only run away very slowly in the game. And the sounds. =X

No, it doesnt scare me, but I get a kick out of my kids playing it. Their reactions are priceless.

I just got indirectly compared to your kids. =( hahaha

I will never be scared of anything related to Slenderman, because of one, simple thing.

Spoiler: One Simple Thing

ROFL, I didnt mean it like that!!!

No matter how often I play it, I get freaked out. The combo of poor movement, limited vision and overall terrifying ambience freaks me out every time.

There's also this
How could Slenderman possibly still be scary under that beautiful blue sky?

After playing Amnesia: The Dark Descent I can't find any other horror games scary. It pry helps that I didn't find Amnesia: The Dark Descent scary either. It gave me a few chills now and again but I never jumped in my seat or anything like that.

Yup that was kind of the point of Amnesia... The environment was creepy rather than having things jump out at you.

It's okay ^_^ I'm a scaredy cat. I know that! =P I'm gonna play through amnesia again. Get the bajeezus scared out of me again.

Never been scared of it. Me and a friend watched somone play and laughed our asses off at them getting scared. Mostly dud to the ridculousness of it. Slenderman doesn't even move properly and when you do either stupidly walk backwards into him or smack into him round a corner the screens fuzzes like a TV with a bad connection and his face appears (which frankly is not scary at all). Maybe the scare factor is in the TV fuzz and it's attempt at making you think a TV is broken (Mai shows! Oh no....)

I know you mean well in posting this thread however this is a warning, stop trying to use it to promote your own youtube channel. The mods have already removed one of your links and I can see two other attempts already have been made. It's almost as bad the commenters on Youtube who go onto more popular channels' videos and post comments pleading for people to visit their channel and 'help' make them money. Just advising you so that you stay out of trouble.

I don't think it would be half as effective without the sound. The music is where it all is, particularly the piano chords. Slender man just sort of stands there chilling out, never leaping or dancing or doing anything. Still, it's a nice and effective idea for a simple horror game.

I'm gonna have to say that's what it is. I mean, his character model is awful but it doesn't matter when that music is drumming up and strikes you when you see him. >_<

Just saw that! I put an apology in my first post. Sincerely didn't realize that I was considered promoting. My apologies. I just thought it'd be funny. The character model though is a huge killer for the fear but the sparatic movement I think makes it scarier.

I find him interesting more than anything. He's a brand new monster. He's the vampire or werewolf of the internet age.
