It’s an interesting discussion. I feel like horror movies don’t come close to horror games for me, personally, as someone who doesn’t enjoy either of them. The really scary horror movies that don’t rely on jumpscares to scare the audience don’t nearly creep me out as much as playing a horror game. You’re in the driver’s seat, you’re in control, whatever happens on screen happens to you. In movies, you’re fine off usually and can just dissociate yourself from whatever is happening on screen to the characters involved. My two cents

I’m guessing you’ve never played the game, otherwise you wouldn’t be saying that.
