I wondering something it might be a huge psychological affect on the brain Why do we get less scared when we are watching horror but frightened by playing and why do we get more invested by effort in horror games in general?
I would imagine that when action is neccessary (as opposed to passive viewing of a stimulus) chemicals such as adrenaline are released to prepare you to act (i.e. fight or flight). That extra adrenaline for preparing action your brain interprets as heightened fear based on the situation. It could also be that the evaluation of the threat is higher since dying in a game has tangible consequences, in contrast to watching someone die in a movie (unless you're emotionally invested in them). Lastly, the fact that the horror is happening to YOU when you're playing a game is huge. As much as your mirror neurons may be firing when you watch a movie, you can only put yourself in the shoes of another so much. In contrast, videogames provide you the control that allows you to be truly immersed, with the perception that your character is an extension of you.
These videos are extremely unique and well put together. A real joy of UA-cam. Thank you
