Steviefaux Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Who gets massive anxiety playing? I haven't played in years, saw the new big release and thought I'd give it a go again. Surely after all this time, having watched Walking Dead in the meantime (although even that would give me anxiety) I wouldn't be so anxious. Nope. Still struggle to cope. Even 1 zombie gives butterflies. Seeing a group, nope, sod this I'm going back to my base and not coming out. I had to tell myself the other day "Its not real. And to make it easier to cope you're backing up the save file so stop panicking" Good game but the anxiety is annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toshis Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 No anxiety, but sometimes this game gives me small jumps. For example: kill all the zombies around, look around and double check that it is safe. Then start doing something and suddenly one zombie appears right behind me out of nowhere in the middle of my work. Damn... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cult of Nobody Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 It has subsided the longer I've played but we made an MP raid on Crossroads Mall the other night that had me and my toons blood pressure elevated. It was raining zombies from the upper levels!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laker Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 No anxiety from playing since I started backing up the game, Before I started doing that, I'd feel tension, knowing that there would come the inevitable mistake that would kill my character.

Ohgodtherats Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Big groups make me think more skulls for the skull throne, but walking through the woods still nets me jump scares and anxiety! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feral_donkey Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I don't get the same spooks I did when first played, but it can still get tense. It's a tense game. But the jump scare noise almost took me out of my chair a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Juliet Whiskey Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I'm surprised how often the jump scare noise gets me. Never had an issue with the old sounds, but something about the new one catches me off guard. Even when I know there's a zed around a corner. Maybe it's just because I don't expect to hear it since I've made visual contact already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
