Slender: The Arrival

why is crepy white man chasing me

Booted up this game in recent time. Had one goal in mind. I'm going to get all achievements for this game. I thought to myself; this is going to take a few hours tops. Went through the game, picked up all collectibles, learned every single path and also adapted my brain to only think Slender. Now I have 100%, but it came at a cost. My table is now in half. My monitors aren't with us anymore. My keyboard is pretty much everywhere. My mouse ran away in fear. My reality turned upside down.
Like in war. You never really leave, when you return home. Scarred by the experience. The game turned into my worst nightmare in the long cold nights. I couldn't go on without knowing... Did I suck at this game? No. I can't believe it.
I then turned to my good friend. Asked him for advice. He laughed. Not at me, but with understanding of my horrors. I wanted him to really understand, so I asked him to get the game on his playstation. He was streaming at the time. He went through the game, following my guidance, only to unlock hardcore mode and try the level "The 8 Pages."
I was so excited. Now I'd be able to see reality. I'd return to the light. It's not just me, but... He walked around in the woods a few minutes. His flashlight went out. Slenderman was nowhere to be seen. He walked in circles. Confused. What was he supposed to do, he asked. I was in shock. Why wasn't his experience as dreadful and lifedraining as mine?
He looked at the sky for - what felt like hours - and continued to walk around, only to ask himself, am I supposed to follow the stars? He picked up the last page. Ran from what seemed like nothing in the "escape cutscene." It started booting up the next level. My nightmare had become real.
I begged him to download the game on PC. It wasn't me! It couldn't be me! ... could it? I was losing my mind. Falling into a deep and neverending abyss of confusion, hatred and emptiness.
He said no. I started to die inside, the abyss became me. I was nothing anymore. Through a feeling of anxiety with my last breathe of hope; I went to the Steam page and bought him the game. I begged him!
He booted up the game. The feeling of warmth and hope rushed through my veins once again. I felt alive for a brief moment. He wasn't excited about having to play through the entire game to unlock hardcore yet again, so we used what is referred to as debugmagic and unlocked all the stages. He booted up the level once again; The 8 Pages.
I stayed quiet. Completely out of breathe. Awaiting his demise. Please, oh please, let me regain my strength, my honor and glory! Give me back my life! I'm trapped in a neverending cycle of nothingness... Hardcore had eaten my soul. Why was it a cakewalk on playstation? Why wasn't he dead yet on the PC? He reached the 7th page. I felt my soul being crushed in the belly of the hardcore beast, BUT...
He died. Slenderman got him. My eyes opened further, my mouth opened slightly and I took my first breathe of real hope. My friend's smile turned to a frown. He tried again. He died. He tried again and he died. He wanted to quit, but the darkness was too strong. I am the one who walks in the darkness. The one who made it.
Goodbye.

7 years ago, jump scares spooked me.
Today, they remind me of the good ol' days.

I think this game is one of the best horror games for its genre, 2013-2014, but to be honest I only got scared for 3-4 times, even I got %100 achievements in this game, I have to say it was pretty simple. I'm probably saying this game is easy and not scary at all, because I really played Outlast 1, Outlast Whistleblower and Outlast 2 so much, and these 3 games were insane that I don't scare to other horror games at all. But in overall, this game is pretty dope and scary for most of the people. also the game has a very unique and charming ambience.
So for recommendation, I recommend it with 7/10

This caused a couple of children to kill other children irl.
I got spooked.

scary i pee
ok??
