What great survival horror games have I missed in the last decade or so? (lemmy.world)

I used to play quite a few of them in the ps1/ps2 era, but sort of dropped out after Resident Evil 4.

Now I've picked up Resident Evil 7 and it's clear I'm about at endgame, and I've been enjoying it pretty well.

So aside from other RE games (I have Village ready to install when I finish 7), what are some more good ones from say the last 10 years-ish?

I find the superscience bullshit of RE is usually easier to follow than supernatural survival horror games, I prefer to have some combat and not be purely hiding like I think it's Amnesia? And I enjoy RE7's shift to first person. Tank controls are hard for me to go back to.

I can't believe I didn't mention Crow Country! It translates the original REs to modern audience in an elegant manner. It is a bit too easy on the default difficulty level though - classic RE players should start with Murder of Crows instead!
