For the record, these are the folks who brought up the horror aspect, and I’m a little surprised to see myself being quoted as if I originated the topic.
That said, I also don’t disagree with them. I would add that while the game also owes a great deal to Tolkien, even some aspects of Lord of the Rings have elements of horror to them, and that surely filtered into the DNA of the game.
