What great survival horror games have I missed in the last decade or so? (lemmy.world)

I used to play quite a few of them in the ps1/ps2 era, but sort of dropped out after Resident Evil 4.

Now I've picked up Resident Evil 7 and it's clear I'm about at endgame, and I've been enjoying it pretty well.

So aside from other RE games (I have Village ready to install when I finish 7), what are some more good ones from say the last 10 years-ish?

I find the superscience bullshit of RE is usually easier to follow than supernatural survival horror games, I prefer to have some combat and not be purely hiding like I think it's Amnesia? And I enjoy RE7's shift to first person. Tank controls are hard for me to go back to.

RE7 and 8 were both awesome! Personally I enjoyed 8 a bit more than 7 but 7 was the scarier game by far.

The RE remakes from the past few years are pretty amazing especially if you enjoyed the originals. I just finished RE4 Remake and it's probably the best action horror I have ever played.

The Dead Space remake is also incredible and I highly recommend it.

Some indie titles like Mouthwashing, and Security Booth are creepy, quick, and fun.

Most of these all go on sale every few weeks as well.
