Thread: Slender

  1. #1

    Thumbs up Slender

    I did a search for the game "Slender" but didn't find much. Is anyone as hooked as I am to it? I can't stop watching the Youtube reaction videos of it. Amazing how sound and the environment can scare the living bejesus out of you.

    Read somewhere that Slender: The Arrival is going to come out on Xbox 360 and PS3.

    Check out this video, its hilarious:

    Am I the only one that doesn't find this game scary? I mean it's just an inanimate slender faceless dude in a tux that randomly appears out of nowhere as if it's stalking you? I've experienced waaaay worse. Or maybe I should read the creepypasta stories first before I actually played this because out of context/backstory it's pretty "meh" to me.
    That's just like, your opinion, man.

    Same here. Still waiting for a proper scary game! So far in the history of gaming, I have not played any scary games. Same goes for movies, no movie have ever scared me. I guess some people have a tolerance, some don't

    Definitely read the backstory.

    I have to say though... its more of a fright game than really being scared. You try so hard to make slight turns so that he does not pop on screen that you get focused on that. Then out of the blue he's just standing there and the loud sound effects come in. I don't know man, I get good frights out of this game.

    The real fun starts when you give your wife or friend the mouse + keyboard and tell them nothing about the game. Just say collect the pages, but watch out for Slendy.

    This game is not scary... You literally have to be able to be scared by someone tapping on your shoulder to be scared by this, most YouTubers just over exaggerate the scariness so that people will watch it more and that may influence how scary you find the game...

    This is exactly how I feel! Never follow the hivemind. Something has to resonate personally with me for me to like it.. not because it's cool to like it. Watched pewds' videos on this and was like wtf? seriously? This ain't even remotely scary...

    I haven't tried Slender yet, but I did find that vid of those (10?) drunk guys playing it in the dark very funny.

    I'm probably going to wait till this comes onto the 360.

    The first time I played I had no clue what was going on. I was just told to find the pages. I pooed.
