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.

Sorry We‘re Closed, Crow Country, and Signalis (was already mentioned but is really really good). The last two have tank controls but are not nearly as clunky or difficult as RE1/2 because of that.

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!
