I feel like this fear is brought over to these forums because of YouTubers exaggerating SP (Or Rematonia if you want to get specific), and they always make it seem like the "scary" experiences are the absolute worst thing in the entire world.

To be honest, my scariest moments in SP are not even that scary.
As mentioned above, it's really all about expectation. Usually, I try to focus on the goal rather than SP itself. I actually don't notice it that much anymore when I attempt to wild.

Hope I gave insight.
