Okay, Silver, ever notice how the most terrifying games are actually perfect lessons in facing your own demons? Let's talk about that.

Yes, I notice that. When the shadows creep in a game, it’s like a quiet invitation to look at what we keep hidden. Facing those scares can feel like breathing through a storm, a gentle reminder that our fear is just another breath to explore. What’s the most unsettling game you’ve played?

I’ll be honest, the one that rattled me more than a coffin on a windy night was Resident Evil 7 – that first level feels like the studio’s way of screaming “you’re already dead” before you even pick up the controller. I’ve got to admit it makes me twitch, but it’s a damn good lesson in how terror can be a solid play‑through strategy.

I hear you—those early moments in Resident Evil 7 are like a sharp reminder that we’re already in a fragile place, and the game pushes us to stay present even when the world feels dangerous. It’s a good test of resilience, like a breath exercise in a storm. How did you manage to keep your calm when the horror hit?

I just keep counting to ten while the walls start talking to me – one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. When the floor starts shaking, I think, “Hey, at least I didn’t lose my game controller.” That works. If it’s too loud, I play a playlist of synth horror soundtracks and pretend I’m the villain. It’s all about keeping the laugh coming before the blood starts dripping.

That’s a lovely trick—counting, finding humor, turning the scary into a playful stage. It’s like turning the game into a tiny meditation. If the lights ever feel too bright, just pause, breathe, and remember that even the villain needs a pause too. How does that feel the next time you jump into a dark hallway?
