Nah, not horror in the traditional sense. I guess animals and extreme weather conditions can sort of substitute for traditional horror elements though, in a sense. It's not like I haven't been startled at all, to put it another way.Yeah, that's why I'm being hesitant about buying it, although I'm still looking forward to it. I thought Long Dark is a semi-horror survival game, and survival horror games are my jam. Maybe I'd like it considering there's a story mode in it, but I'll wait for the sale just as usual.
Edith Finch is dissimilar to either of those, I think. Sure you can say that all three games are walking simulators, but I think the presentation and creativity of Edith Finch are clearly more exceptional. I can't guarantee it will blow your dick off or anything, but I had a fun time just watching and analyzing it. The game is relatively short - you can finish it in 3-4 hours - so if time constraint is your concern, you shouldn't be worry about that.
I wasn't implying that they were honestly, so I didn't mean to give off the impression. Just that they're considered similar as far as genre goes.
