There aren't many genres that I tend to avoid like the plague, but horror has never really been my bag. The closest I get to modern day horror in media, is classical gothic literature, which is a different beast entirely. When it comes to movies and games, being scared is not something I find enjoyable, and my active imagination always ensures that I feel the spooks.
Like a lot of people in the world, I'm not American, which might seem a relatively banal thing to say, but games are pretty good at reminding me. Especially when the big shock of a first person shooter is that it takes place on American soil, which doesn't mean a whole lot in reality. Maybe it's shocking and interesting to have your home featured as a battleground, but if that's what you're whole game is riding on, you might need to rethink it for foreign audiences.
