Is Horror Subjective? (child of What games are you playing now?)

But it started with you more or less saying "I don't know why everyone thinks it is scary". That in itself plays both sides - the fact that there are some core elements of a scare that are largely universal (until desensitized), and that there are individuals who based on brain activity and DNA makeup respond outside of the norm to various stimuli … on one side or the other.

Actually, I didn't. I specifically said "some people".

I also stated - "I'm not saying Amnesia isn't effective in general, I'm saying it wasn't effective to *me*.

I think it's pretty plain that I wasn't bashing the game or claiming that other people couldn't find it "scary". I'm glad that some people enjoyed it more than I, but that won't change the fact that it was mostly mediocre to me.

Ok everyone… moving on. :)
