Is there a more anxiety inducing sound in all of Video Games than this
- Thread starter Musubi
- Start date
Mr X's footsteps in Resident Evil 2 Remake, althought I wasn't really enjoying the game and think stalker enemies are overused.
Naah, the MGS sound alert is basically a funny meme nowadays, the ReDead...yeah that shit I don't mess with.
Why would you traumatize me like this
My contribution
Not knowing if that black screen with the Playstation symbol was going to show up
It's one of the reasons why I dreaded playing the first Sonic as a kid, too stressful lol
The variation of the sound in Sonic Adventure 2 is actually amazing though.

this is also a good choice...it also frustrated me to no end as a kid
In the rhythm game Rhythm Heaven, they have these Perfect Challenges, where you have to play through a song perfectly. During the challenge, a picture of a heart is in the corner of the screen. But if you mess up an input just a little bit, the heart breaks in spectacular fashion, with the loudest CRASH sound effect ever.
Honestly, the most anxiety I've ever had playing any game is playing those Perfect Challenges, with the fear of messing up a little and hearing that sound. I usually just avoid playing them for that reason, lol.

the conversation usually goes like this
Me: "i have trouble Waking up"
Person : "me too i have this heavy metal song and i still don't wake up properly"
Me: "i use the sonic drowning song as my alarm clock"
Person: "ok, i have zero trouble waking up sorry if i said anything"

I always thought that beeping was part of the song
That game was so damn weird.
FFXIV: ARR plays an ominous sound that warns players that they are about to enter a near-endgame (for the time) zone. Pretty necessary since some maps like the north shroud have level 45+ zones right next to level 3 ones.
Wish I could show it but I don't think anyone has recorded it.

fuckkkkkkk regenerators, omgggg
I have that one part where you see it in the security camera lens then you hear that horrific "hhhhgggghhh hhhhhhhhhhyehhhh" behind you and it's IN THE ROOM WITH YOU
OP

Or the fumbling to get that damn heat scope on so I can shoot it holy shit it's getting closer HOW DO I GTFO OF HERE!!
😂 I would frantically shoot at it and miss and scream the whole time
In a series known for overdesigned slimy blobs that are more icky than scary, there's something absolutely horrifically terrifying about the...simplicity? of Regenerators' design.
Yup, they are nightmare fuel. Watching my wife play that section is a memory I will never forgot. Inching forward at a glacial pace and panic screams.
I came here, half expecting to see it in the OP. Still, yeah, I would've posted it, had it not already been posted.
What? I've played since the very original launch and have never noticed this - Not doubting at all, but I've honestly never heard/noticed - I need to go check this out
The drowning music doesn't bother me anymore because I've played enough Sonic games to know the danger of actually drowning is usually pretty low. They always put bubbles everywhere; you can't go that far without running into one. I think that one part in Chemical Plant Act 2 is probably the only dangerous water section I can think of, but I never mess that up anymore.
My answer is the chase theme from The Witch's House. Although maybe instead of "anxiety" I would say "sheer terror". If you've played the game you know what I mean.

Yeah, the expressions go from total terror on the left to "Wow! I'm drowning! This is so fun!" on the right.
