The photo realistic trope. Its just not that scary to me?
Since you specified trope and not cliche, I’m gonna go for something more subjective than just the typical Mary Sue-tier ones.
For example…probably the trope of the monster being incredibly dull, besides being uncreative. It usually has pale skin, “impossibly long arms”, very sharp teeth, and hollow eyes of some sort. Its like every person in the world read SCP-096 and thought “yeah, let’s just use that for every monster design ever, nobody’ll notice.”
After reading your comment, I went and checked over all of my stories, not gonna lie.
Although I've abused some terrible clichés, and menial tropes (mainly in my earlier stuff), I'm happy to say 096 isn't one of them.
Haha balls
Gore only builds fear factor when its used right. I like a nice gory pasta, but not when its used excessively.
The "Oh no I was abused and now a psychopathic killer fear me 'insert terrible maniac laugh'" stuff is stupid.
Also the realistic photo ones just downright suck, need I say more
Oh my fucking god I actually didn't know that
Okay let me try and do my best
What do you think?
