After releasing the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro earlier in the year, OnePlus is following them up with the OnePlus 8T, a phone that feels almost exactly like the OnePlus 8 Pro with a few features stripped away and a $150 cheaper price tag.

For $749 you get a 6.55-inch, 120Hz, 2400×1080 display, a Snapdragon 865 SoC, 12GB of RAM, 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and a 4500mAh battery. Most of the features you would expect are here, like an in-screen fingerprint reader, OnePlus' three-position mute switch, a USB-C port, stereo speakers, and NFC.

OnePlus says there's no "OnePlus 8T Pro" this year because there are really no upgrades to provide over the 8 Pro, so the 8T slots in just a bit below the 8 Pro. The major changes are a smaller, lower-resolution display, no wireless charging, no IP water-resistance rating, and a downgraded camera.

Amnesia and Soma creator Thomas Grip explains how he makes games terrifying

Welcome to “Scare Tactics,” a new video series focusing on the horror gaming genre.

Video produced by Justin Wolfson, edited by Patrick Biesemans. Click here for transcript.

Welcome to "Scare Tactics," a pilot for a video series that aims to explore how different creators make horror games. We see horror as a special genre—horror games aren't always played for the same reasons as other games. They aren't necessarily fun, and their reward often comes from overcoming one's own fears, rather than from overcoming the game's mechanics.

We're starting the series by cozying up to Frictional Games cofounder Thomas Grip. To call the release of Frictional's Amnesia: The Dark Descent a watershed moment in horror gaming would be a severe understatement—it launched the careers of many Let's Play YouTubers and spawned dozens of copycats all trying the same scare-your-brains-out formula. The company is currently working on Amnesia: Rebirth, but Grip took time away from finishing Rebirth to take us through his philosophy and approach to horror game design.

(Along the way, he also shared some Rebirth previews with us, and our video above showcases a few Rebirth gameplay elements that haven't been seen yet!)
