Resident Evil 4 had it's scary moments. Even though you're more of a bad ass, having hordes of villagers hunt you down at a time felt cool. I think there needs to be a balance between being able to take control of your character (and not feel completely helpless) and being challenged. I liked that there were moments when you had to barricade the doors to avoid being overrun. At the same time, I know what you mean about its emphasis on combat. Survival horror should focus more on keeping the enemies away/surviving, rather than blowing brains out.

Playing through it right now.  Scary as all hell.  Doesn't give me the same sense of dread/stress as Amnesia, but it's pretty close.  Overall a very fun yet scary game.  

 
Did you finish Outlast?  Does the scare factor hold up through the game?

While I haven't played Outlast, I've been watching a YouTube channel that's been doing live play sessions, and as a viewer, it's holding up.

I commented exactly on that when I finished the game few weeks ago http://www.head-fi.org/t/138124/rate-the-video-games-youre-currently-playing/3795#post_9783260 . Of course, this experience may vary from person to person but honestly I have to say no and I died only a handful of times in the game and I know for a fact that most of the people playing it on youtube died a lot a lot more often even if you don't see it in their videos, which will make the scare factor wear out even faster.

Seriesly I was quite frightened by Diablo II when I was little
Worrying about from where and when will monsters come out in when dungeons

I remember being afraid to open the door to the Butcher's Lair in the first Diablo and hear the "Ahh..Fresh Meat!"

I remember Resident Evil 3: Nemesis back on the PS1 had so many "What?!" moments. I can only imagine how many times you would jolt if you played it with headphones on haha.

Yo,
 
IAGS' version of 1.5 looks awesome, and while not 100% accurate to what CAPCOM may have wanted, it's the closest we're going to get to a retail version of 1.5.

Read the wiki, sounds like a Silent Hill rip off.

That's what i thought when i saw the trailer. Something wrong happening with Japanese developers. 
 
I hope Bethesda release Fallout 4 soon.

Btw, The Forest looks promising if you don't mind it being a survival game at its core
