Resident Evil is a hell of a game, it's got great world design, terrifying zombies and some... *extensive* characterization - but that's not all. Resident Evil is also the master of tension. Tension is the secret ingredient that turns mere excitement into exhilaration and simple fear into outright horror, but how do the best of the best use this subtle game design element to their advantage?
Whether it's Half Life Alyx's Jeff, Resident Evil's Lady Dimitrescu and Subnautica's Reapers - the greatest moments of videogaming tension rely not on outright scares, but on taking control away from the player - and after a much-needed change of clothes, the Architect is ready to tell you how they do it.
