The belt thing-y is a bit silly looking, especially with giving it biological explanation, but I love how the protag needs to crank it to get their armor back
And the theme??? Again, kind of silly sounding but so hype???

Reading manga is so worth it. You enjoy the story and Fujimoto's excellent drawings, and then years later you enjoy how Mappa adapts all of it into animation. Double enjoyment!

OMG SAME
I've been listening to it non-stop and I can feel that if I don't stop, I'll get sick of it. BUT IT'S SO GOOD, especially after watching the movie!
Thankfully, the whole OST is a banger that can pull me away from Iris-ing out for 100th time

Obviously, they are not immune to repetition (gamers will optimize the fun out of everything after all)
And sorry to all horror fans if these thoughts are too banal lol But as I am not too familiar with this field yet, it was an interesting look into "scare machines" that are built into these games

Repetition is an enemy of lengthy horror so games with simple mechanics need to be either concise (ex. indie horror) or careful with their timing
Repetition doesn't hurt games with complex systems as much because the same encounter can be interpreted in various ways (ammo, location, saves and etc)

It's not a clear distinction, obviously. RE has scripted moments, Outlast has item management
But if I had to convey my thoughts through a (unscientific) graph, it would look like this:

It's not about effectiveness, it's about structure
Mechanically simple games, like Amnesia, rely on scripted, curated segments which can create very memorable moments
Meanwhile, more complex games, like survival horrors, may use their inherent gameplay loops to maintain tension...
