unbelievably disappointed that you don't physically climb into miquella's egg

what are the best indie psychological horrors? what are the hidden gems? what do you wish people were talking about?

there's an irony to reviving a story about loss and grief in the name of nostalgia while altering its execution to satisfy a modern gaming palate. it's like telling zoomers about how much the 90s ruled because of how it makes you feel to remember it. nostalgia is grief, nostalgia is bargaining; maybe you can experience that feeling again if you only say the correct words, perform the correct ritual. but you can't. you can't live in the 90s again, and james can't un-confront pyramid head, and you can't play silent hill 2 for the first time again
