[quote name='Barry Burton']why don't you like horror games?
how can you say they aren't worth playing without trying them? i don't like point and clicks but i am loving the walking dead more than any game this year
what horror games did you play that made you think they aren't worth trying?[/QUOTE]
Because I don't like being scared, so I don't like the one genre that's completely based around that concept. It's not something that I will ever get over because horror games put you in control of that, so the only way to avoid it is not to play.
Edit: And to respond to your second post, fear isn't an emotion that I find entertaining or enjoyable in any way. The thing I'd most like to do is have a way to avoid the situations that scare me, but horror games are not about that. It's not optional in any way in those games, so I can't stand them. That's not to say that I don't play games that scare me, but those generally offer ways to avoid them if you wish/can. Minecraft is one where I cannot stand monsters and the like that come out at night or spawn in the dark, so I do everything I can to avoid them with the way I build and the way I explore the world.
