Thank you for making a fantastic horror game, Cry of Fear was very touching to me when I played it (as I'm sure it was to a lot of people here). So thank you and the team for giving us such a unique experience
i played this at the mental hospital, one of the nurses asked what this is, because she found it calming. i explained where its from and she was really surprised that a horror game can have such calming music
In my past experiences at the psych ward, I, too explained games and how comfortingly horrifying they can be. I have told many other patients there about doki doki or cry of fear. Games are beautiful because it shows you the reality of an another being, from an another perspective
Cry of Fear has a very special place in my life. Since the early age I've been showing signs of depression, and as I grew older, it became worse. A lot worse, to the point that at the age of 22 I tried to kill myself, jumping out of my window. Sometime before it happened, I found the Cry of Fear, and it just hit too close to home. I felt exactly like Simon - alone, depressed, anxious and full of problems. Every time he went through sorrow, pain, stress - I felt it too. And the fact that 3 out of 4 endings in the game lead to the suicide of Simon... yeah, I felt it too. I was listening to the OST every single day, crying and just hoping that tomorrow I won't wake up. It was miserable to say the least. But, the story doesn't end there. I survived the jump - broke my back, legs, arms, basically everything. But I didn't die, and after spending months stuck in bed (I'm almost fully recovered now) I realized - life is worth living. The depression shows its ugly face from time to time, it's not completely gone, but I fight it now, and there's no chance I will come back to that dark place again. I still listen to the OST from time to time. Not to grieve like I used to, but because the music is an absolute work of art, and it reminds me of how strong I am now, of how much I went through to get to where I'm at rn. "I think this is a good time to close this book. It has changed my life forever"
@@Semper_ most of my comments left there are probably cringe as hell :D But I really was in a dark fucking place, and I'm glad to not be that person anymore
The thing is: I was diagnosed by my psychiatrist firstly with bipolar disorder, but then she changed my diagnosis to borderline personality disorder, and as she said to me there is no way to get rid of, only to ease symptoms with meds and go through therapy to minimize risk of suicide. And sorry for my cringe story, but it feels like there is no way to get out of it. Whats even point to stay living if you are chronically mentally ill? Seems like the real option is only suicide, like Simon did :D Sorry, just wanted to sound off and share. (and yes, this music is so fucking great)
I discovered Cry of Fear during the pandemic. I was 17, and my first love (I'm not with him in a romantic way, but we are really close friend today because we've been through so much together) was home with me, and we played this game together late at night. I remember being really affected by the ambiance of this game, something really touched my soul and maked me feel in a unique way I never felt with anything else. Cry of Fear have a really important place in my life, and I guess I never related so much to a sensation then this strange feeling of struggling to come home in a dark and hopeful city that feel so empty and dangerous. I use to feel exactly like Simon in some of my dreams during this period, stuck somewhere, unable to come in my sweat home in an interminable cold night. But now I have a really different point of view in life, I found something to waking up for and I have a lot of people that I love around me (friends, lover, and family), and I feel very grateful for all the beautiful human experiences I've been able to share with those people. I'm so grateful to always be so close to my first love because he his a really important person to me, and we are so attached to eachoter. Oh, and I also discovered DSBM, witch make me think a lot about this game (especially LifeLover). Anyway, I wich everybody here is doing good, and have found some sense in life. If it's not the case, don't be to rude to yourself and allow yourself to stay in "the abysses" when you don't feel like trying to be happy. I think happiness is going to come anyway, when you least expect it. But don't take this extra step and hurt yourself further than you should be please. Always stay empathic and kind to others people, you don't know what they're going through to. Idk, it was my goofy take of the day (excuses my bad english i'm a frenchie) Love :))
Очень хорошая история, с приятным концом. Надеюсь у тебя и сейчас все хорошо! Я вот долгое время не могу найти счастья в своей жизни, черт мне уже 22 года ,а я так и не понял зачем я вообще топчу эту чертову землю.
i dont want to sound edgy, the whole cry of fear pack (the OSTs, story and gameplay) is making me feel things. I relate to Simon a lot. But seeing lots of people romanticize his mental state and actions is really making me question myself where the hell am I living. I really wish to find someone I could freely express my feelings to without feeling the guilt and disgust later on
Such a specific vibe. Dark and lonely but also really nice and comforting. I hadn’t realized how good the soundtrack for this game was when I first played it. This is great
читая комментарии, я поражаюсь, что люди в таком раннем возрасте играют в эту игру и понимают, что они не одни такие. а также игра действительно описывает те моменты в жизни, которые прям берёт за душу. благодаря данным саундтрекам и людям, написавших свой опыт с игрой и жизнью, что задевает даже меня. я рад, что игра может помочь людям разобраться в себе
When I was a little kid, I would pass of things as normal. When I grew older I began to realize things that I had been through. I developed PTSD through having to live with my meth head dad for half a year and it was awful. He burned me with a cigarette, called me weak, and he even had drug parties in the same house that I was sleeping in. I believe that is the reason why I absolute despise it when I touch someone I don’t 100% trust. This OST reminds me of some of those traumatic memories, but it gives me motivation; it reminds me how I overcame that. I still suffer from anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I’ve almost attempted suicide, but I stopped myself. I sometimes feel like I am trapped in a haze, a bubble of my own emotions in which I can’t seem to escape. The memories, the people who hurt me, the people I’ve lost, the pain, still hurts me to this day. I sometimes want to cry my eyes out, but I hate crying. I am nonbinary because of the way my dad treated me, I feel like it’s another way to try to relieve that pain of being mocked and teased about being weak and not man enough.
Hey man..I know im kinda late here, but I just wanna tell you that you are strong for going through that and still being here, and im so sorry for what happend to you... Life puts us through a lot of problems and challenges, to test our mental..life will throw you to the floor and make you feel miserable sometimes, thats true... ive had some struggles when I was young aswell... My parents would always be arguing, my dad was too immature to take care of me and sometimes had abusive behaviour when I was younger. One of the few memories I have about one of those abusive interactions was him putting a pillow over my head when I was 6 or so to stop me from crying after he had made my mom cry. My grandparents and my mom's brother used to have a lot of conflict regarding my mom and dad relationship, because she was always delusional trying to make the "perfect family" and never leavijg my dad, going as far as them saying that my mom was dead to them... She attempted $ú|cide twice because of all of that...alongside my dads abusive behaviour... I dont remember much about when I was young, and its probably due to that.. Ive also struggled a lot with mental problems that I didnt know I had, that ive only been recently diagnosed this year... Ive been feeling a lot better now. My parents are divorced, but its not a bad thing. My dad has changed a lot as a person for the better, my grandparents support my mom more than anything, and ive been getting a lot of help from doctors, friends and family.. So yeah, in conclusion, life puts you through a lot of shit...and a lot of people seem to not understand you or not "care" about what you feel, but trust me, theres a lot of people who care about you and love you. Stay strong... I love you 🩷
Потрясающая игра, потрясающая музыка. Эта игра многое показала мне: она показала насколько я могу быть схож с главным героем (ментально), она показала ужас и тьму всей этой одинокой жизни. Звучит глупо, знаю. Мне 18,я уже далеко не тот самый счастливый мальчик, даже наоборот. Гнев, тревога, страх и переживания - я заебался купаться в этом "бассейне". Андреас, спасибо тебе. Спасибо, что ты создал такую шедевральную игру, которая не только пугает, но и открывает глаза..
e6l@n, то, что тебе 18 ещё не делает тебя d0h_uя взрослым. это по бумажке ты уже дееспособный, а так пубертат у каждого по своему длится. и то, что ты говоришь "саймон тупа я" и "я далеко не счастливый мальчик, мне 18 лет" уже само за себя говорит
@@Teammotion-kn5tq it's a bit silly, but when i decided to play it for the first time, i was on a very low point of my life, i was considering suicide and was struggling with self harm. i liked the game so much that i decided i'd finish this game before finishing my life, haha well, thing is, this game somehow managed to make me realize that what i was doing to myself was messed up. i felt bad for simon, and it was so disturbing. i will never forget what i felt while playing the "..." nightmare sequence. i realized that if i felt so compassionate for that character, someone would feel the same for me if they knew about my sittuation (like my mom, dad, brothers). thats why i put more effort into not hurting myself anymore. the first ending i got was the ending 4. even if simon didnt get the best life as he deserved, he did not shot himself. ik it sounds stupid, but i felt so relieved and decided that i as well would try to keep on living and wait until i was fine once again. whenever i play this game, i forget about my melancholy and everything. also, when i find out the whole game was (major spoiler alert) simon's book, i felt motivated to write again (i always loved writing, but as i was kinda depressed and tired i didnt want to write anymore) i still struggle with those dark thoughts, but cry of fear will always have a special place in my heart. whenever i feel like that terrible state is coming back, i start to play it everyday again. it makes me feel so many different emotions, reminding me that im human, that i still have many other emotions to feel, and maybe in the future create a game as good as cof. or at least discover other amazing games that are worth playing.
@@miaumeows your story is truly amazing, its a shame you had to go through all of this, I hope you always gonna succeed to find peace in life. Thanks for sharing man.
This isn't just a game or just a soundtrack. This is art that connects people in their grief and their existence. This is terror, emotion, silence and a loud scream. It's the depiction of human darkness that drives you crazy and provides comfort at the same time. Because you don't feel alone. This game means emptiness, loneliness and hopelessness and at the same time security and a feeling of "coming home". It is a masterpiece. A feeling, an image, a state. It is so much and so valuable. It is a part of Scarred hearts and lonely souls. It's a hug and a pang from the universe. It's indescribably wonderful, it's living and dying. It's darkness and light. It's perfect.
Since I've played the game, 90% of all dark music sounds like and 90% of towns during midnight look like Cry of Fear to me. Surely a game that has influenced me a lot.
По началу не обращал внимания на OST, думал: "ну фоновая музыка и фоновая музыка, что в ней такого?", а теперь понимаю, что не могу перестать ее слушать, хочется чтобы эти композиции сопровождали меня чуть ли не везде. Так приятно и спокойно на душе с ней...
@@GeorgeKokkin-m5r Ну тебе-то точно лучше знать где я и что у меня на душе, не так ли. Пойду поздравлю всех-всех любителей жанра ambient, они, оказывается, все в депрессивной яме и им там комфортно. И с чего вообще такие мысли? Если обладаешь экстрасенсорными способностями, то не мог бы ты ответить где я потерял свою сменную обувь? Уже года два о ней ни слуху ни духу...
It's really wild how much this game inspired me when I was younger. At this point, to me, Cry of Fear is more than just a game. Having met (and even worked with a bit) the creator, Andreas, it's just such a different thing to me. It's not just a game, it's something I hold near and dear to my heart. I'll always remember this game for being there and just helping in making me the person, and developer I am today. I love this mix because I feel like it really accentuates the more ambient and emotional aspects of the game. The parts that aren't about being scary, but about being real, and deeper than just scares. This game is so genius, and I'm so glad to have been able to meet the creator on multiple occasions. Great Guy, Great Team, Great Game.
I was depressed after my brother's passing, I hated life and didn't wanted to do anything, I just sat there doing nothing. I didn't go to theraphy or used any drugs, I only needed this game. I have finally found a down to earth character who suffered more than me, I know Simon is a fictional character but, he is also my hero, my savior, who protected me from the depression's firm grasp. I know it sounds corny but, it is what it is, stay strong my kings, your time will come...
I love the subtle details! Simon in the darkness, Sophie in the light. Simon is going through some dark moments, and she is his light, in some way. The metaphors in this game are just phenomenal
@@konradfoyle i love how deep the lore and metaphors run in this game. Its just so perfect yk? when you replay or rewatch stuff theres always something new you missed or didnt catch the first time.
When I saw the atmosphere in this game. The dimly lit streets and parks, the silence, the wind, the solitude, the confusion, the occasional melancholic song. It reminded me that there’s people out there who get it. It’s a comforting thought.
Brandon.. Столько много в этом саундтреке: боль, одиночество, воспоминания, счастья, горечь и т.д. Для меня он лучший саундтрек который я только мог услышать. Спасибо тебе большое, Андреас Роннберг, за то что ты создал этот проект.
Sorry to hear that. Hope you'll find the love of your life. Waiting for it ain't the easiest thing, but for people like you it'll surely happen. Just be patient and be ready to work hard for something like that, but all the effort would eventually pay for itself.
I've been listening to this for a prolonged period of time, probably since it came out, I wouldn't know really. All I really know is that it's been very touchy for me, always matching with my emotions, despite there being not a single lyric, the vibe and sounds bounce in my heart, and make me cry every time I listen to this, "Thoughts" being the one that always makes me break into tears regardless whether I've been listening to this since the start or not. Recently, I was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which was something I always told myself wouldn't happen, or said it as a way to tell me that things could be worse, and that I should try and be happier about my situation. Knowing that I've actually been suffering from PTSD for most of my recent life was rather shocking news, specially to an already depressed 16yro like me, who's struggling with keeping up with school and themselves. PTSD Would explain why I have become to see sleeping so difficult, and why I've always been sleeping with my monitor screen on as a light source in my room, I can't sleep with my back faced against the rest of the room as I look at the wall anymore. It would also explain some of my panic attacks, and why I'm so easy to just burst in tears when listening to certain tracks or seeing certain things. I remember tuning in to this the moment I got home, crying to myself for the rest of the day (I had came home around 4 PM). Normally, there's ways to look after people with PTSD, but as a teen this young like me, who's already traumatized and depressed since 2020, in a country where homosexuality isn't respected at all followed by the fact I'm extremely isolated, struggling socially due to my autism, it becomes extremely difficult considering my parents are already struggling to even keep an eye on me to see if I'm alright from time to time. As well, my country doesn't exactly care much about people's psychological and/or emotional situation, and pretty much all psychologists/therapists are untrustworthy, meaning I'd at most just be given anti-depressants, which is something I already tried and had shown to be absolutely useless. I like listening to these tracks, because they sound familiar, almost as if I know these tunes despite not actually knowing how the song goes, it gives me such a calm yet emotional feeling, almost as if I was safe, with someone or something that I can shed my tears to. It's something I hold dear in my heart, and really appreciate that this exists.
Man i love how Dark City is very well extended, Cry of Fear was one of my favorite games these years, i'm amazed on how it was all made in GoldSrc engine, never gonna forget this masterpiece.
It’s comforting to know that people out there, whether close by or far away, there are people who get it. I’m glad that Cry of Fear was introduced to me at my lowest so that it could help my out of that dark pit I called my thoughts. If you’re reading this then just know that you’re not alone and that it might look horrible now, but in the end, there’s a way to pull yourself out…
Listening to this makes me rethink my life decisions... I won't talk about my problems here because I don't want to look like a crybaby, but I can say the music is just beautiful and kind of describes most days of mine. Thanks to Andreas for beautiful soundtracks, and thanks to his team for making a game where I could relate to the character.
Hey i was scrolling thru the comments and i saw your comment. I hope the problem got resolved by now but if you need to talk about anything or need help, ill gladly give you my discord! If no, i just want you to hear this, we all make mistakes, and no one is perfect, we should strive to be perfect and learn from our past mistakes. Have a great day my dude!
@@grassly7997 Sorry for such a late response. No, my problems in fact can't be solved anymore.. I'm from Mariupol, and my city is totally destroyed, so I don't have my own flat anymore, right now I'm in Germany, Duisburg... And my uncle, the person I loved the most in my family, who was like a father to me, just commited a suicide yesterday.. I don't even know why.. I'm just feeling so weak and sad that don't even want to do anything anymore.. I just really miss him now.. I could get through being raised by a criminal biological father who threw me and my alcoholic mother out of the flat, I could get through being harassed emotionally and physically in school and kindergarten for being a child from the poor family, I could get through being beaten up by my stepfather for coming out as a bisexual, and could get through the insults from my mother which I hear every single day, but losing a person who in fact raised me with my grandparents.. It's just too much for me..
A game that will always have a place in my heart, I recommended it to many friends at the time and they thought it was great, the OST was never far behind.
Hearing this music gives me so much comfort. It's been a year since I've been showing symptoms of depression and cry of fear has become my refuge, especially its soundtrack.
This music.... It takes me back to 2013 when I finally played this game for the first time. Loved every second of it. Bought the soundtrack and everything. The first song especially, Brandon. It takes me back to those bus rides home, my head against the window, watching the scenery go by.. September, the chill of fall was in the air, the start of the spooky season. A Friday night, no homework, no responsibilities, just a night at home with my family, playing video games and watching a movie with them. A feeling of content, freedom, a feeling of happiness. Feelings I haven't truly felt since those days. If you're struggling and you haven't played this game, or haven't played in a while, give it another go. You'll be surprised about how much it hits, and you may feel a little better after playing it again, like I did. These days I'm colder, sadder, stressed. This music lets me reclaim a glimmer of that time, just for a moment. And it's beautiful. Truly, one of the best games ever made, and it doesn't cost you a dime to experience it.
Творческий шедевр... Эта игра для меня, как картина. Её красоту можно и не увидеть, за пеленой страха и испуга... Сюжет, атмосфера! - Вот вся мощь и энергия этой игры. Полёт души, желающей свободы. Желающей жизни, а не существования. Осталось лишь побороть всех своих демонов в голове.
Lonely feels strangely cozy, like coming home greeted by no one and nothing but the cold air of your familiar quarters. There’s a comfort to be found in solitude, and I feel this song does well to portray such.
whenever I was diagnosed with depression at the age of 11 I never forgot how much my parents cried, the symptoms slowly got worse as I grew up and whenever I played Cry of Fear it was perfectly depicting Depression.
The nostalgia is what makes this mix a drug for me. Thank you, and most definitely thanks to the musician and devs who made this masterpiece of a game.
Listening to this is calming. I did enjoy Cry of Fear it did help me get through hard times. Just had to end a friendship of 13 years. It's not the easiest. My friend became a raging alcoholic and I tried to be there for him, but he was too far gone to the point that it wasn't good for me to be his friend anymore. I am still hurting from it. However, I am glad I found this and just take a bit to sit back and just listen to this.
I am doing way better! Started a new position at the company I work at. I am just listening to this while working on 3D model. Thank you for checking in on me! I hope all is well on your end as well.
i had stumbled across cry of fear during a hard time in my life. i couldn't play it myself cause i was a scaredy-cat (teehee) but i fell in love with it (especially the design of enemies and locations and the symbolism underneath). fortunately, i'm doing better now -or at least i think so- and i know it might sound weird but i feel like cry of fear helped me in a way (iykyk). so yeah. uh... if anyone wants to talk, i'm here for you. you're not alone. we're not alone. keep that in mind and take care :) love y'all
I love the fact that the music names does make sense with the melody that plays in. Like in "Hate Life", it's morbid and has some soothing guitar in it, showing that Simon's life almost didn't have anything new or even any kind of "movement", and the melancholy that hits in the music shows that due to his depression, it just worsened within time, though he tried sometimes to see some good things on life. The heavy bass that keeps up with the guitar too symbolizes that the bad thoughts would always follow him, no matter what point of view he would be looking at his surroudings. That's at least how i could interpretate the music, as i had the same trouble when i was around 13yo, but i would like to see other POVs of the symbolism this music brings!
Damn back in 2019 i was going to take my life with the this soundtrack with pills for anxiety,( i played this Game back in 2013-2014 and i remember the soundtrack so well that i wanted yo be the last thing i wanted to hear) i was at the emergency stairs and at 5am some dude that was doing execises there called the cops and the ambulance and saved me, i didnt want to hear this music till now because i didnt want to remember this episode that i had but damn, now i see it at good eyes and gives me nostalgia but i mean in the good times when i was playing it haha, regards from Chile 🇨🇱
Thanks for making this mix, Cry of Fear's music is so underrated and deserves much more recogniton, it has a very lonely vibe to it which I bloody love, keep up the good work man!
I have a big love-hate relationship with Cry of Fear but more on the love part. It has lots of annoying design choices and mechanics but it's really a great and scary horror game.
@@voytec448 Penumbra 1 did it right. They made a bad combat on purpose which discourage from fighting dogs, it was a last resort thing and it was more of a stun thing rather than kill thing. The main gameplay was stealth horror. Meanwhile Cry of Fear has lots of those things but instead of making them optional it forces them on you. Also when you start dying because of bad design choices, the game stops being scary, defeating the purpose of a horror game. The more times you die in a stupidly hard level, where you are stuck without health or/and ammo - you're gonna remember all the scares and they don't work anymore. Cry of Fear's main goal was to be a horror game resident evil style but because of few moments with bad balancing it turns into Serious Sam on serious difficulty
"I've always felt alone my whole life, for as long as I can remember. I don't know if I like it... or if I'm just used to it, but I do know this: Being lonely does things to you, and feeling shit and bitter and angry all the time just... eats away at you."
"Train station" es un track bastante importante para mi. Refleja tanto, como me siento, como veo mi dia a dia y las pocas ganas que me quedan de seguir viviendo.
This is the best game ever, literally the ost is so iconic that i take time of my life just to concentrate on hearing it because listening it while doing other thing feels like an insult xd im so obsessed with cry of fear omg help me
I’ve been through SA four years ago, and I can’t let it go ever since. I hate to admit I relate to Simon in a lot of ways. Oh God, I never was a bad person. I never wished anyone harm. But fate chose to joke with me. I used to be a motivated kid with a future. Now I am that crippled version of Simon on a wheelchair. I sometimes think maybe in other life, or maybe the afterlife is better.
I can’t possibly claim to imagine how you feel, and I know some random person on RUclips won’t make much of a difference- but you are still capable of making this life better. If fate wants to see you suffer, don’t give it the satisfaction of winning- take control back however you can. It’s not the same for everyone, and as I said, I can’t know how you feel- but I would start by making a routine, making sure that you decide how and when things ought to be done. If you feel like you don’t have enough stuff going on to fill up a routine, start doing things: Even if it’s just a walk, some home exercise, work, or maybe a time to play games- any way in which you can decide the timing of your day is a good step. I will leave it there in case I’m making any assumptions or mistakes with my advice (or maybe I’m boring you)- but whether or not you find it helpful, please don’t give up (generic I know). I don’t want to try to give any more advice when I don’t fully understand your situation- but if you want to talk more, feel free. If not, I understand, and I wish the best for you in every aspect of your life.
Whenever I feel the need to let it out i keep coming to the this soundtrack as i can relate to it so well. Even when im with my friends i feel like im the od one out and that im unwanted
I’m sorry to hear that. I pray that this gets better and you meet people who know how to love like God loves you. People were created to love each other ❤. Sadly everyone is not perfect and many people don’t know how to love correctly. People nonetheless are drawn to love when they feel true love. There is a saying out there that if you want a friend, be friend, but that message really has to go both ways to be a healthy relationship. Thank you for being brave and sharing this, God loves you, I love you too. I hope to hear that everything gets better for you.
потрясающая проникновенная музыка, когда играл в игру просто останавливался когда начинался трек и слушал .. так завораживала эта атмосферная вещь. Спасибо создателю игры и музыки
I just have to leave a comment here. This game and this music... man... I've been there from the start. I love this game and it's themes to death until this very day. I'm not in a mentally bad state... but I think... alot... an unhealthy amount about things so far outside my own reach and how they worry me. Covid really amped up the feeling of isolation and it never really went back down afterwards. This music is just... perfect for that kind of feeling... I hope everyone in the comments here is doing well. Hats off to all y'all. Have a good life.
this playlist is a masterpiece you can play it when you're depressed and hopeless or happy and content I listened to it many many times thank you, kind uploader
A few months ago I started to feel bad about myself, I feel that things have not improved. This soundtrack helps me to feel calmer in the most difficult moments. Thank you very much for uploading it.
Never played this game before, heard about it from a friend. I watched a play-through and I plan to play for myself someday. I find myself coming back to this OST when I’m down. Brings me comfort because it reminds me of my friend. So glad he introduced me to this wonderful game with an amazing OST.
So much love for this. Cry of Fear, one of the most beautiful games ever. if you know what depression and anxiety means, it's like a journy into your mind...

Very nostalgic hearing this, thank you for putting it together /Andreas
Hey Andreas, love your music man!
Thank you for making a fantastic horror game, Cry of Fear was very touching to me when I played it (as I'm sure it was to a lot of people here). So thank you and the team for giving us such a unique experience
honestly cry of fear itself was a horror masterpiece, the music added just made it so much better.
Thank you for Cry of fear:)
Do your team have any idea for games? Cof2? Aom2?
will your team ever come out with a new horror game? i love afraid of mosnters and cry of fear is an amazing game
i played this at the mental hospital, one of the nurses asked what this is, because she found it calming. i explained where its from and she was really surprised that a horror game can have such calming music
you should make her play cry of fear
@@moonTerfixx. uh oh
In my past experiences at the psych ward, I, too explained games and how comfortingly horrifying they can be. I have told many other patients there about doki doki or cry of fear. Games are beautiful because it shows you the reality of an another being, from an another perspective
Cry of Fear has a very special place in my life. Since the early age I've been showing signs of depression, and as I grew older, it became worse. A lot worse, to the point that at the age of 22 I tried to kill myself, jumping out of my window. Sometime before it happened, I found the Cry of Fear, and it just hit too close to home. I felt exactly like Simon - alone, depressed, anxious and full of problems. Every time he went through sorrow, pain, stress - I felt it too. And the fact that 3 out of 4 endings in the game lead to the suicide of Simon... yeah, I felt it too. I was listening to the OST every single day, crying and just hoping that tomorrow I won't wake up. It was miserable to say the least.
But, the story doesn't end there. I survived the jump - broke my back, legs, arms, basically everything. But I didn't die, and after spending months stuck in bed (I'm almost fully recovered now) I realized - life is worth living. The depression shows its ugly face from time to time, it's not completely gone, but I fight it now, and there's no chance I will come back to that dark place again.
I still listen to the OST from time to time. Not to grieve like I used to, but because the music is an absolute work of art, and it reminds me of how strong I am now, of how much I went through to get to where I'm at rn.
"I think this is a good time to close this book. It has changed my life forever"
Wow, beautiful
Glad to hear it,please never give up the fight
I've seen you before, many times. In Cry of Fear OST comments, I'm so glad that you're getting better friend.
@@Semper_ most of my comments left there are probably cringe as hell :D But I really was in a dark fucking place, and I'm glad to not be that person anymore
The thing is: I was diagnosed by my psychiatrist firstly with bipolar disorder, but then she changed my diagnosis to borderline personality disorder, and as she said to me there is no way to get rid of, only to ease symptoms with meds and go through therapy to minimize risk of suicide. And sorry for my cringe story, but it feels like there is no way to get out of it. Whats even point to stay living if you are chronically mentally ill? Seems like the real option is only suicide, like Simon did :D
Sorry, just wanted to sound off and share.
(and yes, this music is so fucking great)
I work 12 hour night shifts without a single day off in two weeks now. This mix is the only thing keeping me sane.
same situation, take care.

Same its ruff
Hope it’s got better for you all, we’ll get past this.
I discovered Cry of Fear during the pandemic. I was 17, and my first love (I'm not with him in a romantic way, but we are really close friend today because we've been through so much together) was home with me, and we played this game together late at night. I remember being really affected by the ambiance of this game, something really touched my soul and maked me feel in a unique way I never felt with anything else.
Cry of Fear have a really important place in my life, and I guess I never related so much to a sensation then this strange feeling of struggling to come home in a dark and hopeful city that feel so empty and dangerous.
I use to feel exactly like Simon in some of my dreams during this period, stuck somewhere, unable to come in my sweat home in an interminable cold night. But now I have a really different point of view in life, I found something to waking up for and I have a lot of people that I love around me (friends, lover, and family), and I feel very grateful for all the beautiful human experiences I've been able to share with those people. I'm so grateful to always be so close to my first love because he his a really important person to me, and we are so attached to eachoter.
Oh, and I also discovered DSBM, witch make me think a lot about this game (especially LifeLover).
Anyway, I wich everybody here is doing good, and have found some sense in life. If it's not the case, don't be to rude to yourself and allow yourself to stay in "the abysses" when you don't feel like trying to be happy. I think happiness is going to come anyway, when you least expect it. But don't take this extra step and hurt yourself further than you should be please. Always stay empathic and kind to others people, you don't know what they're going through to. Idk, it was my goofy take of the day (excuses my bad english i'm a frenchie)
Love :))
Oh… EUGHH.. French

Playing dark city late at night walking in Stockholm city alone really hits different. If you live in Stockholm, I highly suggest doing this.
any city really, the street lights have you now
Yes
Well if you're in Stockholm, you can find places from the game since most of them are from real life
if you live in stockholm i highly suggest not going outside
@@torch_uh If you live in Malmö i highly suggest moving to Stockholm.
Dark City just hits soooo different, seriously captures how loneliness feels to a painful degree
i dont want to sound edgy, the whole cry of fear pack (the OSTs, story and gameplay) is making me feel things. I relate to Simon a lot. But seeing lots of people romanticize his mental state and actions is really making me question myself where the hell am I living. I really wish to find someone I could freely express my feelings to without feeling the guilt and disgust later on

Such a specific vibe. Dark and lonely but also really nice and comforting. I hadn’t realized how good the soundtrack for this game was when I first played it. This is great
It sounds how taking heroin feels.
This really helps to cope with when you feel bad and just low on everything
Crazy. This OST helped a lot back in 2015. I come to listen from time to time.

читая комментарии, я поражаюсь, что люди в таком раннем возрасте играют в эту игру и понимают, что они не одни такие. а также игра действительно описывает те моменты в жизни, которые прям берёт за душу. благодаря данным саундтрекам и людям, написавших свой опыт с игрой и жизнью, что задевает даже меня. я рад, что игра может помочь людям разобраться в себе
When I was a little kid, I would pass of things as normal. When I grew older I began to realize things that I had been through. I developed PTSD through having to live with my meth head dad for half a year and it was awful. He burned me with a cigarette, called me weak, and he even had drug parties in the same house that I was sleeping in. I believe that is the reason why I absolute despise it when I touch someone I don’t 100% trust. This OST reminds me of some of those traumatic memories, but it gives me motivation; it reminds me how I overcame that. I still suffer from anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I’ve almost attempted suicide, but I stopped myself. I sometimes feel like I am trapped in a haze, a bubble of my own emotions in which I can’t seem to escape. The memories, the people who hurt me, the people I’ve lost, the pain, still hurts me to this day. I sometimes want to cry my eyes out, but I hate crying. I am nonbinary because of the way my dad treated me, I feel like it’s another way to try to relieve that pain of being mocked and teased about being weak and not man enough.
Te amo personita que a pesar de todo sigue luchando
I hope you can find all the necessary help, stay strong, buddy.
Hey man..I know im kinda late here, but I just wanna tell you that you are strong for going through that and still being here, and im so sorry for what happend to you... Life puts us through a lot of problems and challenges, to test our mental..life will throw you to the floor and make you feel miserable sometimes, thats true... ive had some struggles when I was young aswell... My parents would always be arguing, my dad was too immature to take care of me and sometimes had abusive behaviour when I was younger. One of the few memories I have about one of those abusive interactions was him putting a pillow over my head when I was 6 or so to stop me from crying after he had made my mom cry. My grandparents and my mom's brother used to have a lot of conflict regarding my mom and dad relationship, because she was always delusional trying to make the "perfect family" and never leavijg my dad, going as far as them saying that my mom was dead to them... She attempted $ú|cide twice because of all of that...alongside my dads abusive behaviour... I dont remember much about when I was young, and its probably due to that.. Ive also struggled a lot with mental problems that I didnt know I had, that ive only been recently diagnosed this year... Ive been feeling a lot better now. My parents are divorced, but its not a bad thing. My dad has changed a lot as a person for the better, my grandparents support my mom more than anything, and ive been getting a lot of help from doctors, friends and family..
So yeah, in conclusion, life puts you through a lot of shit...and a lot of people seem to not understand you or not "care" about what you feel, but trust me, theres a lot of people who care about you and love you.
Stay strong... I love you 🩷
For a really dark and depressing game, this ost is weirdly calm and beautiful, almost relaxing
bro this ost is literally definition of feeling depressed and isolated. especially brandon. I mean it is calm as well but yk
only chads cry themselves to sleep whist listening to the cry of fear soundtrack
Only chad expload a doctor head with is foot
I can't cry
I cry of fear

Потрясающая игра, потрясающая музыка. Эта игра многое показала мне: она показала насколько я могу быть схож с главным героем (ментально), она показала ужас и тьму всей этой одинокой жизни. Звучит глупо, знаю. Мне 18,я уже далеко не тот самый счастливый мальчик, даже наоборот. Гнев, тревога, страх и переживания - я заебался купаться в этом "бассейне". Андреас, спасибо тебе. Спасибо, что ты создал такую шедевральную игру, которая не только пугает, но и открывает глаза..
e6l@n, то, что тебе 18 ещё не делает тебя d0h_uя взрослым. это по бумажке ты уже дееспособный, а так пубертат у каждого по своему длится. и то, что ты говоришь "саймон тупа я" и "я далеко не счастливый мальчик, мне 18 лет" уже само за себя говорит
no one will ever understand (imagine even) how much i love cry of fear and how it pretty much saved my life, i hope i will love this game forever
I still love it since it became out. 🖤
how did it save your life?
@@Teammotion-kn5tq it's a bit silly, but when i decided to play it for the first time, i was on a very low point of my life, i was considering suicide and was struggling with self harm. i liked the game so much that i decided i'd finish this game before finishing my life, haha
well, thing is, this game somehow managed to make me realize that what i was doing to myself was messed up. i felt bad for simon, and it was so disturbing. i will never forget what i felt while playing the "..." nightmare sequence. i realized that if i felt so compassionate for that character, someone would feel the same for me if they knew about my sittuation (like my mom, dad, brothers). thats why i put more effort into not hurting myself anymore.
the first ending i got was the ending 4. even if simon didnt get the best life as he deserved, he did not shot himself. ik it sounds stupid, but i felt so relieved and decided that i as well would try to keep on living and wait until i was fine once again. whenever i play this game, i forget about my melancholy and everything.
also, when i find out the whole game was (major spoiler alert) simon's book, i felt motivated to write again (i always loved writing, but as i was kinda depressed and tired i didnt want to write anymore)
i still struggle with those dark thoughts, but cry of fear will always have a special place in my heart. whenever i feel like that terrible state is coming back, i start to play it everyday again. it makes me feel so many different emotions, reminding me that im human, that i still have many other emotions to feel, and maybe in the future create a game as good as cof. or at least discover other amazing games that are worth playing.
@@miaumeows your story is truly amazing, its a shame you had to go through all of this, I hope you always gonna succeed to find peace in life. Thanks for sharing man.
Cry of Fear's soundtrack makes me want to cry of fear
This isn't just a game or just a soundtrack. This is art that connects people in their grief and their existence. This is terror, emotion, silence and a loud scream. It's the depiction of human darkness that drives you crazy and provides comfort at the same time. Because you don't feel alone. This game means emptiness, loneliness and hopelessness and at the same time security and a feeling of "coming home". It is a masterpiece. A feeling, an image, a state. It is so much and so valuable. It is a part of Scarred hearts and lonely souls. It's a hug and a pang from the universe. It's indescribably wonderful, it's living and dying. It's darkness and light. It's perfect.
Glad to see people still commenting over this game
The loud scream, the cry of fear.
bomboclat
damn bro...
Since I've played the game, 90% of all dark music sounds like and 90% of towns during midnight look like Cry of Fear to me. Surely a game that has influenced me a lot.
Dieu merci je ne suis pas le seul ❤!
thats so real bro when its dark i feel like im playing cry of fear irl
По началу не обращал внимания на OST, думал: "ну фоновая музыка и фоновая музыка, что в ней такого?", а теперь понимаю, что не могу перестать ее слушать, хочется чтобы эти композиции сопровождали меня чуть ли не везде.

You deserve more likes, my guy. Such a great and amazing job! Keep going!
It's really wild how much this game inspired me when I was younger. At this point, to me, Cry of Fear is more than just a game. Having met (and even worked with a bit) the creator, Andreas, it's just such a different thing to me. It's not just a game, it's something I hold near and dear to my heart. I'll always remember this game for being there and just helping in making me the person, and developer I am today. I love this mix because I feel like it really accentuates the more ambient and emotional aspects of the game. The parts that aren't about being scary, but about being real, and deeper than just scares. This game is so genius, and I'm so glad to have been able to meet the creator on multiple occasions. Great Guy, Great Team, Great Game.
Решила послушать во время уборки. Пока засовывала одеяло в пододеяльник устала. Легла на диван и слушала эту музыку без каких либо эмоций. Расслабляет
I was depressed after my brother's passing, I hated life and didn't wanted to do anything, I just sat there doing nothing. I didn't go to theraphy or used any drugs, I only needed this game. I have finally found a down to earth character who suffered more than me, I know Simon is a fictional character but, he is also my hero, my savior, who protected me from the depression's firm grasp. I know it sounds corny but, it is what it is, stay strong my kings, your time will come...
I feel like the first song "Brandon" could fit with any horror series, but it fits with Cry of Fear the best.
that's what I felt, I felt like I've heard it somewhere before, in either Silent Hill or Resident Evil...
I really love how that shot in 0:30 was framed. The cutscenes in this game are incredibly overlooked and underappreciated as janky as they may be.
I love the subtle details! Simon in the darkness, Sophie in the light. Simon is going through some dark moments, and she is his light, in some way. The metaphors in this game are just phenomenal
@@konradfoyle i love how deep the lore and metaphors run in this game. Its just so perfect yk? when you replay or rewatch stuff theres always something new you missed or didnt catch the first time.
This goes so well when home alone at night time and it sets the mood...
It's even better when you're walking through the city at night. You almost expect a jumpscare.

Unironically nice to listen to while drunk and alone, eases the pain a little
When I saw the atmosphere in this game. The dimly lit streets and parks, the silence, the wind, the solitude, the confusion, the occasional melancholic song. It reminded me that there’s people out there who get it. It’s a comforting thought.
This game will forever hold a special place in my heart, no matter how old it gets
Brandon.. Столько много в этом саундтреке: боль, одиночество, воспоминания, счастья, горечь и т.д.
Для меня он лучший саундтрек который я только мог услышать.
Спасибо тебе большое, Андреас Роннберг, за то что ты создал этот проект.
I remember putting brandon and crow on my pc, while me and my ex laid in bed together. Now I listen alone.
Sorry to hear that. Hope you'll find the love of your life. Waiting for it ain't the easiest thing, but for people like you it'll surely happen. Just be patient and be ready to work hard for something like that, but all the effort would eventually pay for itself.
I've been listening to this for a prolonged period of time, probably since it came out, I wouldn't know really.
All I really know is that it's been very touchy for me, always matching with my emotions, despite there being not a single lyric, the vibe and sounds bounce in my heart, and make me cry every time I listen to this, "Thoughts" being the one that always makes me break into tears regardless whether I've been listening to this since the start or not.
Recently, I was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which was something I always told myself wouldn't happen, or said it as a way to tell me that things could be worse, and that I should try and be happier about my situation. Knowing that I've actually been suffering from PTSD for most of my recent life was rather shocking news, specially to an already depressed 16yro like me, who's struggling with keeping up with school and themselves. PTSD Would explain why I have become to see sleeping so difficult, and why I've always been sleeping with my monitor screen on as a light source in my room, I can't sleep with my back faced against the rest of the room as I look at the wall anymore. It would also explain some of my panic attacks, and why I'm so easy to just burst in tears when listening to certain tracks or seeing certain things.
I remember tuning in to this the moment I got home, crying to myself for the rest of the day (I had came home around 4 PM). Normally, there's ways to look after people with PTSD, but as a teen this young like me, who's already traumatized and depressed since 2020, in a country where homosexuality isn't respected at all followed by the fact I'm extremely isolated, struggling socially due to my autism, it becomes extremely difficult considering my parents are already struggling to even keep an eye on me to see if I'm alright from time to time. As well, my country doesn't exactly care much about people's psychological and/or emotional situation, and pretty much all psychologists/therapists are untrustworthy, meaning I'd at most just be given anti-depressants, which is something I already tried and had shown to be absolutely useless.
I like listening to these tracks, because they sound familiar, almost as if I know these tunes despite not actually knowing how the song goes, it gives me such a calm yet emotional feeling, almost as if I was safe, with someone or something that I can shed my tears to. It's something I hold dear in my heart, and really appreciate that this exists.
Hope all is well with you, friend. If not - Then I hope it becomes so sometime, somehow. Breathe easy, be well, and take care.
I feel you. That's all I'll say. Be safe
Man i love how Dark City is very well extended, Cry of Fear was one of my favorite games these years, i'm amazed on how it was all made in GoldSrc engine, never gonna forget this masterpiece.
Dark city is just - dayum.. i cried
It’s comforting to know that people out there, whether close by or far away, there are people who get it. I’m glad that Cry of Fear was introduced to me at my lowest so that it could help my out of that dark pit I called my thoughts. If you’re reading this then just know that you’re not alone and that it might look horrible now, but in the end, there’s a way to pull yourself out…

I could get through being raised by a criminal biological father who threw me and my alcoholic mother out of the flat, I could get through being harassed emotionally and physically in school and kindergarten for being a child from the poor family, I could get through being beaten up by my stepfather for coming out as a bisexual, and could get through the insults from my mother which I hear every single day, but losing a person who in fact raised me with my grandparents..

@@ojmanoo cry of fear
@@ojmanoo "let me tell you a great story"
The literal feeling I get from this is indescribable.
This music....
It takes me back to 2013 when I finally played this game for the first time. Loved every second of it. Bought the soundtrack and everything.
The first song especially, Brandon. It takes me back to those bus rides home, my head against the window, watching the scenery go by.. September, the chill of fall was in the air, the start of the spooky season. A Friday night, no homework, no responsibilities, just a night at home with my family, playing video games and watching a movie with them.
A feeling of content, freedom, a feeling of happiness. Feelings I haven't truly felt since those days.
If you're struggling and you haven't played this game, or haven't played in a while, give it another go. You'll be surprised about how much it hits, and you may feel a little better after playing it again, like I did.
These days I'm colder, sadder, stressed. This music lets me reclaim a glimmer of that time, just for a moment. And it's beautiful.
Truly, one of the best games ever made, and it doesn't cost you a dime to experience it.
Well said
Творческий шедевр... Эта игра для меня, как картина. Её красоту можно и не увидеть, за пеленой страха и испуга... Сюжет, атмосфера! - Вот вся мощь и энергия этой игры. Полёт души, желающей свободы. Желающей жизни, а не существования. Осталось лишь побороть всех своих демонов в голове.
Lonely feels strangely cozy, like coming home greeted by no one and nothing but the cold air of your familiar quarters. There’s a comfort to be found in solitude, and I feel this song does well to portray such.
listened to this a lot in october. so bleak, so real, so cold. love it a ton, thanks for compiling
whenever I was diagnosed with depression at the age of 11 I never forgot how much my parents cried, the symptoms slowly got worse as I grew up and whenever I played Cry of Fear it was perfectly depicting Depression.

Listening to this is calming. I did enjoy Cry of Fear it did help me get through hard times. Just had to end a friendship of 13 years. It's not the easiest. My friend became a raging alcoholic and I tried to be there for him, but he was too far gone to the point that it wasn't good for me to be his friend anymore. I am still hurting from it. However, I am glad I found this and just take a bit to sit back and just listen to this.
good. im glad you were there but ya it doesnt always work out like we want it to. at least we have cof
Ik it’s been 7 months but I hope ur doing fine now
I am doing way better! Started a new position at the company I work at. I am just listening to this while working on 3D model. Thank you for checking in on me! I hope all is well on your end as well.
Это игра навсегда в сердце, и другой такой уже не будет.💔
i had stumbled across cry of fear during a hard time in my life. i couldn't play it myself cause i was a scaredy-cat (teehee) but i fell in love with it (especially the design of enemies and locations and the symbolism underneath).
fortunately, i'm doing better now -or at least i think so- and i know it might sound weird but i feel like cry of fear helped me in a way (iykyk).
so yeah. uh... if anyone wants to talk, i'm here for you. you're not alone. we're not alone. keep that in mind and take care :) love y'all
I hope you're doing better
Hey, are you still here?
Listen to this while I drive at night 👍
must be so great
I love the fact that the music names does make sense with the melody that plays in. Like in "Hate Life", it's morbid and has some soothing guitar in it, showing that Simon's life almost didn't have anything new or even any kind of "movement", and the melancholy that hits in the music shows that due to his depression, it just worsened within time, though he tried sometimes to see some good things on life. The heavy bass that keeps up with the guitar too symbolizes that the bad thoughts would always follow him, no matter what point of view he would be looking at his surroudings. That's at least how i could interpretate the music, as i had the same trouble when i was around 13yo, but i would like to see other POVs of the symbolism this music brings!
Damn back in 2019 i was going to take my life with the this soundtrack with pills for anxiety,( i played this Game back in 2013-2014 and i remember the soundtrack so well that i wanted yo be the last thing i wanted to hear) i was at the emergency stairs and at 5am some dude that was doing execises there called the cops and the ambulance and saved me, i didnt want to hear this music till now because i didnt want to remember this episode that i had but damn, now i see it at good eyes and gives me nostalgia but i mean in the good times when i was playing it haha, regards from Chile 🇨🇱
I wake up 6 days later in the ICU and they told me that. Maybe "god" or the universe wanted to give me another chance
hope you are doing well, man

I have a big love-hate relationship with Cry of Fear but more on the love part. It has lots of annoying design choices and mechanics but it's really a great and scary horror game.
Its an indie low cost game from more than 10 years
@@kalashnikov0e But the things I am talking about are very noticable and easy to fix. The devs would just need to play the game once to see them.
most of these things are supposed to make you feel vulnerable on purpose
@@voytec448 Penumbra 1 did it right. They made a bad combat on purpose which discourage from fighting dogs, it was a last resort thing and it was more of a stun thing rather than kill thing. The main gameplay was stealth horror. Meanwhile Cry of Fear has lots of those things but instead of making them optional it forces them on you. Also when you start dying because of bad design choices, the game stops being scary, defeating the purpose of a horror game. The more times you die in a stupidly hard level, where you are stuck without health or/and ammo - you're gonna remember all the scares and they don't work anymore. Cry of Fear's main goal was to be a horror game resident evil style but because of few moments with bad balancing it turns into Serious Sam on serious difficulty
@@DraconasTenZHG That's when you stumble onto the ''Ash-Threshold'' of survival horror games.

"I've always felt alone my whole life,
for as long as I can remember.
I don't know if I like it... or if I'm just
used to it, but I do know this:
Being lonely does things to you, and feeling shit and bitter
and angry all the time just... eats away at you."
Brandon hits really hard, they all do, man this game makes me feel some feelings
I literally listened to this for 2 months straight now sleep peacefully and sad
"Train station" es un track bastante importante para mi. Refleja tanto, como me siento, como veo mi dia a dia y las pocas ganas que me quedan de seguir viviendo.
A cry in the dark, never seen
This is the best game ever, literally the ost is so iconic that i take time of my life just to concentrate on hearing it because listening it while doing other thing feels like an insult xd im so obsessed with cry of fear omg help me
It really is a beautiful soundtrack, reminds me of Silent Hill osts
Walking around Stockholm at night in black jeans and a gray hoodie and listening to this ost
Yeaah...
im gonna live long enough to get To do this
I only started the game now, but holy. I never felt so heard. The game is oddly so sad yet sooo comforing.
I’ve been through SA four years ago, and I can’t let it go ever since. I hate to admit I relate to Simon in a lot of ways. Oh God, I never was a bad person. I never wished anyone harm. But fate chose to joke with me. I used to be a motivated kid with a future. Now I am that crippled version of Simon on a wheelchair. I sometimes think maybe in other life, or maybe the afterlife is better.
I can’t possibly claim to imagine how you feel, and I know some random person on RUclips won’t make much of a difference- but you are still capable of making this life better.
If fate wants to see you suffer, don’t give it the satisfaction of winning- take control back however you can.
It’s not the same for everyone, and as I said, I can’t know how you feel- but I would start by making a routine, making sure that you decide how and when things ought to be done.
If you feel like you don’t have enough stuff going on to fill up a routine, start doing things:
Even if it’s just a walk, some home exercise, work, or maybe a time to play games- any way in which you can decide the timing of your day is a good step.
I will leave it there in case I’m making any assumptions or mistakes with my advice (or maybe I’m boring you)- but whether or not you find it helpful, please don’t give up (generic I know).
I don’t want to try to give any more advice when I don’t fully understand your situation- but if you want to talk more, feel free.
If not, I understand, and I wish the best for you in every aspect of your life.
Whenever I feel the need to let it out i keep coming to the this soundtrack as i can relate to it so well. Even when im with my friends i feel like im the od one out and that im unwanted
I’m sorry to hear that. I pray that this gets better and you meet people who know how to love like God loves you. People were created to love each other ❤. Sadly everyone is not perfect and many people don’t know how to love correctly. People nonetheless are drawn to love when they feel true love. There is a saying out there that if you want a friend, be friend, but that message really has to go both ways to be a healthy relationship. Thank you for being brave and sharing this, God loves you, I love you too. I hope to hear that everything gets better for you.
Dark City hits different .. uff
потрясающая проникновенная музыка, когда играл в игру просто останавливался когда начинался трек и слушал .. так завораживала эта атмосферная вещь. Спасибо создателю игры и музыки
I just have to leave a comment here. This game and this music... man... I've been there from the start. I love this game and it's themes to death until this very day. I'm not in a mentally bad state... but I think... alot... an unhealthy amount about things so far outside my own reach and how they worry me. Covid really amped up the feeling of isolation and it never really went back down afterwards. This music is just... perfect for that kind of feeling... I hope everyone in the comments here is doing well. Hats off to all y'all. Have a good life.
this playlist is a masterpiece
you can play it when you're depressed and hopeless or happy and content
I listened to it many many times
thank you, kind uploader
A few months ago I started to feel bad about myself, I feel that things have not improved. This soundtrack helps me to feel calmer in the most difficult moments. Thank you very much for uploading it.
I think Cry of Fear belongs up there with the greats of horror video games. Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Amnesia, all of em.
Hearing Sophie always makes me tear up.
Never played this game before, heard about it from a friend. I watched a play-through and I plan to play for myself someday. I find myself coming back to this OST when I’m down. Brings me comfort because it reminds me of my friend. So glad he introduced me to this wonderful game with an amazing OST.
trust me and play it yourself, it's a very immersive and beautiful, yet melancholic experience
And here i am, working out with this on my ears, just, perfect. Thanks for putting this together.
Please make a Golden Light mix like this. It's dark and odd, but very comforting
Thanks for the suggestion I'll add it to the list
So much love for this. Cry of Fear, one of the most beautiful games ever. if you know what depression and anxiety means, it's like a journy into your mind...
This songs remind me such an amazing memories
Crazy to think this game is 14 years old. Also the added ambience combined with the tracks sounds nice
These music really feels like loneliness and isolation
Bazılarımız doğarken çatlamış bir ruh ile doğuyoruz. Bazen yaşam bir performans bazen ise kefene atılan bir diğer dikiş
