The Cozy-Game Comfort Player vs The Atmospheric Horror Seeker
Two taste personalities. See how their Taste DNA differs — and which one is you.
"You feel safest when the world wants you to tend it."
caretaking_as_core_loop: world responds to being tended — growth and relief are the reward
routine_loop_satisfaction: daily-cycle routines with clear task completion over open-ended urgency
hostile_world_aversion: strongly rejects settings where the environment's primary relationship to you is threat
emotional_processing_as_content: grief, therapy, and life-review are the subject matter, not the backdrop
resource_management_ceiling: tolerates light resource tracking for warmth payoff; punishing scarcity breaks immersion
"You need horror that was already over before it began."
inescapable_predetermined_doom: fate sealed at frame one, narrative is just the reveal
grief_as_horror_substrate: grief is the wound the supernatural enters through
slow_dread_escalation: dread blooms across runtime rather than arriving in jolts
ritual_and_folk_horror_framework: communal or occult systems that override individual will
psychological_collapse_and_unreliable_reality: a mind disintegrating from inside, perception can't be trusted
