What games would you pick that aren’t really a part of the horror genre, but maybe have horror vibes, or fall vibes, or something else that makes them really suited for fall?

    I get the sense that the recent Resident Evil games are basically zombie-themed shooters rather than proper horror games, but I haven’t played them to confirm.

      Depends on what you mean by recent. Some of the entries have definitely been more action horror than scary horror, but RE9 was a really solid blend of both, with lots of stealth required when playing as Grace for the first time, and that’s the most recent one.

      8 was more action-oriented too, but 7 was actually pretty controversial for introducing a totally new protagonist for the purpose of recapturing the survival horror theme.
