What’s with taking part in Horror video games solely throughout October? What’s with celebrating the darkish and spooky solely throughout one month of the yr? Isn’t that fully ridiculous?

Throughout October, Twitch streamers and different content material creators will usually attempt to play extra Horror video games however for scaredy cats like me, that’s a nightmare come true. The locations I search to flee from the horrors of the true world (the pandemic, debt, conflict, politics, and my psychological and bodily well being) flip into darkish locations stuffed with bounce scares and scare alerts and whatnot.

What is incorrect with y’all?

I imply, actually, everyone seems to be doing it and I’m superb with taking part in one Horror sport on someday of the week/month however what’s up with taking part in solely Horror video games all through October? What is up with solely writing concerning the darkish and creepy all through October? Why not do… Spooktember… or Scarch (Scary March?).

I imply, I really like Halloween and I really like Autumn. But I don’t just like the scary stuff.

Just cease it.

Idk, I’m simply irritated at this as it’s the identical with Pride Month.

People play queer video games in the course of the queer month and by no means after that. Being homosexual is okay – however solely throughout Pride Month is what I’m getting out of this.

Playing Horror video games solely throughout October is like taking part in video games with Pride themes solely throughout Pride Month.

I’m simply mildly upset at this complete factor and I do know that not everybody feels this fashion or that not everybody performs horror video games solely throughout October… however… there are simply so many… and that’s what annoys me a bit of bit. It’s like a pet peeve. AITA?
