But I can't find a way to cut through the nuance and pin down what's really determining whether the enemies are coming across as scary or not. A force that overpowers and takes control of the situation in one way or another. Scary enemies tend to be ominous, unpredictable, and overwhelming. I feel like I understand this only on a emotional level, rather than rational. But, I only really found her first phase scary, rather than the second, despite her having new attacks that did far more damage than before.

For example, I'm very much afraid of OG Nemesis from RE3, but, barely flinch at the remake's version. Give an enemy a lot of hp (or perhaps even make it invulnerable), high damage output, and suddenly you've got something to be afraid of. One of my first thoughts is that it's as simple as legitimate threat. I realize of course that these things help "sell the package", so to speak, but what I'm really interested in is what conveys 'scary' on a mechanical level to the player. ![]() David spends much of his time in a futile effort in clearing out his ever growing video game backlog.I'm not so much referring to visual/audio design.
