Trve.It also helps that Lost Media-type shit wasn't played out and done to death at the time of Pale Luna. Most horror comes from the fear of the unknown, and fear of the unknown is kinda hard to nail when you're rehashing the same five overused concepts that everyone's seen already.
I remember when Ben Drowned was a kind of "hit" among game Creepypastas. Because it was also new for the time being. The "realness" was achieved by the author making a weird modded version of Majora's Mask and taping himself playing it. It was kind of interesting, if you only watch the videos, but the story itself makes no sense. I think it was one of the first game pastas that tried to write up lore. Then we got Sonic.EXE and it all became even worse.
Overall, horror games had their share of the spotlight during early 2010's, but most of the time they were low quality, brought to public attention by LP sloptubers. Like that old Slenderman game.
Outlast was cool, though, but it's not really scary.
