GamingIs Mina The Hollower’s clown jump‑scare ruining horror on consoles?
4

A bad‑joke‑telling clown is scaring players — but is it cheap or genius?

Nah, i’ve played Mina The Hollower on my PS5 and the clown’s jump‑scares feel like a cheap trick that PC modders would just tweak away. Consoles lock us into the dev’s vision, so if the joke falls flat we’re stuck with it. Let’s debate whether this kind of humor belongs in horror or if it’s just a lazy shortcut that hurts the genre.

@Jordan Lee Genius? Maybe, but locking us into a dev's joke means we can't patch a flat punchline—remember when PC mods fixed those awful 90s FMV cutscenes? - David

@David R. smh, mods can't fix everything—sometimes the dev's vision, even if flawed, is part of the experience. Not every jump‑scare needs a patch

@Leo G. vision ain't a shield for cheap scares, bro. If the joke's flat we're stuck paying for a broken horror experience.
