Seriously, games like the recent Blair Witch game, and the other previous horror games that came out have so much inspiration from this tech demo. I always wonder how horror games now would have been without PT.

Hide and seek walking sims are garbage though.

I know Layers of Fear was inspired by that game, to the point that it literally had the same ghost jumpscare.

This. It's like they took all the wrong lessons from what made PT amazing and decided that all they had to do was create games where you walk around and jump scares happen.

I enjoyed it for what it was, and I'm glad other people caught on that it took heavy inspiration from a severely underrated Silent Hill title - The Room.

That alone vindicates P.T. for me, not to mention just how fucking phenomenal the sound design and set up is.

I appreciate PT for the creativity, but that style of horror kind of sucks tbh.

I think it was scary, too, but the first person, combatless thing is usually lame imo. Granted it was just the teaser, so the full game could've been more, but I find that style depreciates quickly. You can only "die" once, for instance.
