Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

  • Darkness Induced Audience Apathy: At least in the first game the outbreak is confined to Carnate Island. The only people there are Serial Killers, mass murderers, and Jerkass Corrections Officers.
  • Demonic Spiders: The Infernas were probably the all around fastest enemies in the game, could soak up a lot of damage, could hem you in by setting the ground on fire, possessed an area of effect attack, and always came in groups (and Jesus Christ, they were FAST!).
  • Evil Is Sexy: Jordan. Some might even say Blackmore.
  • Hell Is That Noise: chink-clink-clank-clankschrarlclankclinkCLIKCLIKCLIKCLIK-SHLINK!
    • The sound of a Gorger feeding is known to turn the stomachs of the hardiest players.
    • The Creeper's voice would be terrifying even if his dialogue in the game was about fluffy puppies instead of his exploits as an abusive pimp and misogynistic serial killer.
  • Nightmare Fuel: It's a goddamn horror game.
    • Nightmare Retardant: ...on the other hand, some players feel the ability to shoot them down with an M-60 kind of messes things up.
  • Paranoia Fuel: It's implied, particularly in the second game, that there's nowhere humans have lived that doesn't have an evil enough past for Malefactors to spawn there if something triggers them to.
