Is the "Game Over" screen a relic of times past?

I like the idea of having a "Game Over" type of screen to clearly tell the player what happened.   Just going back to auto-reload wouldn't be clear, and might be confusing if the party is quickly TPK'd for some reason after a save.

But I also like the idea of having the screen show a plot-specific outcome rather than a generic "Game Over."

But I do think it's also good to go back to the load screen, in case the player wants to try from a different save file.

So all I'd change is the text on the Game Over screen.

Horror gaming makes it still relevant especially with the creative ways to die. but its just a part of the asthetic, if you dont like it dont have one,
