Bloober Team is most likely making a Silent Hill game and while its other games show the developer's incompetence in making effective horror, The Medium is the most glaring example of it.
The Medium
, first and foremost, is not scary. Zdzisław Beksiński-inspired environments can be stunning to look at in all of their crusty, hellish glory and the decent soundtrack, half of which was helmed by famouscomposer Akira Yamaoka, is ominous, but neither can overcome the absolute vacuum of terror in the game.
Lacking combat or ways to deal with enemies causes ripples that are particularly devastating to horror games. It’s boring to slowly saunter through nearly obstacle-free environments in almost any genre, but especially in horror where risk is so crucial to the pressure it thrives on. There’s no pressure because players know nothing dangerous will happen because there’s no mechanical way for the game to support such danger.
