Low Budget Horror: Can indie developers revive a failing genre?

There is a widespread perception that, much like a test subject sprouting a second limb, the mainstream horror scene has undergone a rather unwelcome metamorphosis. With surprisingly rare exception, the genre has drifted towards relentless action. Alan Wake is the perfect example: It may boast some of the trappings of horror, but it too often devolves into dull and repetitive gunplay.

Tellingly, Capcom producer Masachika Kawata has gone on the record with his belief that there isn’t a large enough market to support a big budget Resident Evil title focused purely on horror.

This is the only game I've ever gotten refunded on Steam. I love the concept but it just felt horrible to play.

Man this is still in development? It was released over ten years ago and still not finished.

I bought this game in early access years ago and played it for about 10 minutes before uninstalling it. I never requested a refund but never played it again. I have heard it’s come on a bit since those days and I’ve always considered one day I would reinstall it just to check it out again but I haven’t… yet.

Sort of forgot about this game. Got it in early access years ago. Was bloody good back then about 4 years ago. I really need to go back to it.
