Oh man where do I start with this...

I'll try...jumpscares invoke a natural reflex in humans which causes them to jump. It's not fear. It's called getting startled, and just a reflex. "Real" fear happens from subtle things happening in the game which cause you to dread what the now menacing environment might bring. It's called an "atmosphere", and if you ever played the original Amnesia, you'll notice that they use that to much MUCH more effectiveness than chock abundance of jumpscares.
