Having played Outlast, I decided horror in video games is awful. Layers of Fear helped to change my perception. While the game has faults, this title also presents serious subject matter with mental illness. Because the game is more of an interactive fiction piece and less of a game, it is consumed easier and is experienced at a deeper level.…

Politics influence the video game industry and is worth discussing. When gaming is used as a platform to discuss unrelated political issues I take offense.
