its literally nu-resident evil. Why the frick we cant have nice things like fixed camera angles but the rooms look nice and detailed? Like in the gamecube remake of re1
>why can't we have nice things like shitty fixed camera angles where you can't even aim your fricking gun that only existed due to technical limitations
Good thing absolutely no one on this board will ever get to make design decisions on any video game ever.
do you really need them juicy headshots? Even when some of the monsters dont have fricking heads. Just shoot it and it dies
Yep. Not always, but Silent Hill really went for cinematic camera angles where appropriate. Yes, I know how much the word "Cinematic" has poisoned the industry, but it wasn't as tryhard back then.
>why can't we have nice things like shitty fixed camera angles where you can't even aim your fricking gun that only existed due to technical limitations

SH barely had fixed camera except for certain key areas you absolute nonce.
>Why the frick we cant have nice things like fixed camera angles but the rooms look nice and detailed?
Because it's literally not necessary anymore. The whole reason for pre-rendered backgrounds in the first place was graphical limitations. Games can reach that level of detail now without having to use a pre-rendered background
I'm aware Silent Hill never had pre-rendered backgrounds, fricktard. Dude I replied to asked why you don't see games like Resident Evil that use pre-rendered backgrounds and I simply explained that it's an obsolete technique. I never claimed Silent Hill used it.
>its literally nu-resident evil
nu-RE at least have decent gunplay which this remake doesn't have even the walking animation looks amateurish. This is gonna be as bad as homecoming maybe even worse
You know it's gonna be bad when even Akira Yamaoka is phoning it in. The compression and tone of the theme of laura song playing at the end is absolutely dreadful. What happened to the textured dreamlike quality he composed for the original OST? You can literally hear the grit on each track.
AI will help for the better, everyone laughs at me when i say this but i really think its gonna be that way. Indies will be able to make larger and better looking games but make them experimental
They're better ways to do something like that. The games is all about immersion, throwing non-diegetic elements just prove how Blooberteam does not know a shit about the og game.
But we already knew that.
Bruh, like I knew that Bloober makes only trash games and they haven't progressed one bit since their first one but holy shit, this is the next level of dumpster fire.
If you had showed me this yesterday I would've assumed it was a joke webm like that other one with the obnoxious hud and James swearing every two seconds.
Nah I dunno about that one, awful shit monster designs and a pants on head moronic story.
Only cool thing to come out of Downpour were the sex doll enemies that spawn invisible clones you can only see with UV light.
I agree with those points BUT the atmosphere was great, especially in the town, and some of the set pieces like the puzzle play were very enjoyable. I liked it, played through multiple times in spite of the monsters being gigachad and the literal boogieman. The story was a very western (literal) take but that’s honestly okay too, still a fun and atmospheric game.
lmao literally call of duty screen goop for damage intensity, except its green instead of red. depressing how normalized all these moronic tropes have become that a ton of people wont even see anything wrong with it being in a silent hill game
It's obviously a combat trailer, so I won't complain too much, but I don't like the look of the combat. Mainly, I don't want it to be the main game mechanic. So I'm hoping they were just going out of their way to show it off. Also, the over the shoulder view just feels wrong for SH.
I know I played it years back in the PS1 and PS2. Thought Shattered Memories was interesting, but didn't really care for anything after 4. Origins was *okay*, but didn't care for it cuz the narrative sucked. I know what I'm about with this series.
who knows I could totally be wrong and they couldve improved on what homecoming failed at, but then again its 2024 and people are half-assing alot of things everyday
Are there any actors besides her that are clamoring for these video game mocap jobs? Might be why she gets so many, nobody else besides her really tries to get them.

>Why are trannies this sadistic?
even if take aside their mental illnesses, what do we know about trannies? they are former incels, not only in the literal meaning but a lot of them were militant incels too, think of the "pinkpill" and "if i cant have a gf i become the gf", shit like that.
have any of you actually went to an incel forum? i mean an actual incel forum, they are the one of the most bitter, sadistic, pathetic, slaveish, vermin-likes ressentment fuelled demographic that there is, now imagine those people on estrogen, thats all you need to know about the trans psyche, they are quite literaly the most broken, sadistic, disgusting and moraly grotesque people around, most of them make the average Ganker dweller look like a paragon of virtue and humanity.

They will literally murder children in school shootings if you don't play pretend with them.
The vast vast vast vast majority of school shooters aren't trannies. You're hyper-focusing on a tiny number of trannies and ignoring the massive number of incels.
You also have no interest whatsoever in actually addressing mass shootings. Don't fricking talk about murdered children, you do not care.
>start grilling troons on one of their many crimes and hard-coded sadism >"BUT WHAT ABOUT THE INCELS"
Is incel-bashing just a knee jerk reaction with you estrogen junkies?

imagine trying to dunk on silent hill "fans" of all people. Their souls have already been hollowed out by shit games that I'm surprised they're still even alive
Silent Hill fans won't be affected by this.
Its the SH2 gays that have been plaguing the fanbase for a long time that are getting btfo. We actual Silent Hill fans are just BREEZING
>Instead of doing its own thing its a straight Crapcom REmakes rip off

guess that's what you get with hacks at the helm
>>back in the day sh made a real effort to become its own thing, apart from resident evil
You mean just the first game?
SH2 was directly made with keen awareness of RE's popularity, and SH3 was almost a fricking rail shooter.
Game designers take inspiration from what's popular to make their own thing? No shit? SH 2 and 3 still didn't feel like Resi games. There have been actual arcade rail shooters of the franchise, though. I think only in Japan.
>sh2 remake team literally aims to be the next re4 remake
Looks like they are trying to do the exact opposite of a good remake. Needless to say, they are succeeding.
Isn't this supposed to be a horror game that keeps you in your toes or whatever with suspenseful music and shit? Why are they marketing this as an action game with badass combat music in the background as you mow down countless enemies?
>hey remember how in the original everyone in the town sans Laura are act kinda weird but you're never really suppossed to think James did something wrong until the big reveal? >HERE'S ((SYMBOLISM)) A BLIND MAN COULD UNDERSTAND, JAMES DID SOMETHING THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WATCH OUT WATCH OUT
In their defense it's not like the SH2 twist is unknown these days. I'm not defending the decision, but it's kind of hard to remake something that everyone knows the ending to.
This has always been a bullshit argument. See the morons that created FFVII ((Remake)) saying the same thing as to why Sephiroth keeps poping into scenes every five minutes yet how many people have you seen over the past four years on the internet playing the game truly thinking it was a faithful remake, and playing it blind as their first FF? There will ALWAYS be people that will play the game as their first outing in the series after the only thing they'd have heard about it being it's "le best game ever made" with no specifics. Again, just like the stupid amounts of people that played FFVIIR and legit had no idea Aeris fricking dies.
>>hey remember how in the original everyone in the town sans Laura are act kinda weird but you're never really suppossed to think James did something wrong until the big reveal?
You mean a message that's purposefully obscure given the low amount of people that will return to Neely's Bar post-Brookhaven?
>>hey remember how in the original everyone in the town sans Laura are act kinda weird but you're never really suppossed to think James did something wrong until the big reveal?
>a bloodied corpse in my horror game? Surely this means that the corpse is me the protagonist, and that I am an unreliable narrator and have killed the person I'm here looking for!
it doesnt work just because its a twist, its narratively interesting because even on replays you go in with the knowledge that james is repressing the guilt and you can now try to make sense out of some of the strange shit, some of which fits neatly with this knowledge, some of it not. this is just the same old modern trend of whacking the subtext with a sledgehammer until it becomes plain text.

I literally didn't know about the twist until I browsed this thread.
>to accentuate the feeling of horror that permeates the entire game.
Yeah and whats that? dick guilt for having a hard on? wow so horrifying, so deep. I'm think I gonna watch some cringe moronic youtuber essay now
>combat was minimalistic
it wasnt, the game keeps shoving combat encounters over my throat. it kills the pacing and removes any scare factor because the combat is piss easy and tedious and boring.
If they made it like SOMA, a literal walking sim with few enemies it would have been way way better.
>feeling of horror
what horror? there is nothing scary about the game, outside of its good atmosphere, nothing is really scary, as the player will often have counteless resources thanks to the poorly designed gameplay systems, there is too much ammo and resources and your wooden stick gets the job done all the time except the bosses.
enemies post no threat as they just stand next to you like morons while you wreck their shit easily.
they had the foundation for a very scary game but thanks to poorly design gameplay they killed that. look at Eddy's fight its actual comedy hole shit.
good surreal horror should be a bizarre and a little goofy and eddys boss fight adds to that. im not going to pretend all that was intentional, SH2's success is like 90% lightning in a bottle and luck. a bunch of confused japs threw a ton of disparate inspirations at the floor and they happened to land in such an arrangement that it worked. its not a game that should have ever been touched again after release because you can never replicate that.
>a bunch of confused japs threw a ton of disparate inspirations at the floor and they happened to land in such an arrangement that it worked
did you even play it
don't answer, I already know you didn't
>Being able to fight enemies and your own fears makes every single game way more scary because in every single dangerous situation (You) are put into a stressful position where you don't know what's the best course of action. Games like Silent Hill are scary because every time you face an enemy you are actively panicking thinking about whether you should fight or run away while worrying about how many resources and health you have left. Games where you cannot fight or defend yourself are boring because they always leave you with one ingle option of running away which gets really old really fast. There's nothing less scary than solving every problem with one solution
Yes they really. I used to think the joke in that one Sseth video where he censored with soap-cutting and subway surfers footage was a joke, and only later learned people will play footage of those on serious videos to keep the zoomers engaged for ad revenue.
Silent Hill 2 has transitioned from a jank RE clone with vastly inferior gameplay to... a jank modern RE clone with vastly inferior gameplay. Bravo Blooper.
Resident Evil went from awesome sci-fi zombie horror to The Matrix with coomer shit.
Silent Hill always stayed with the survival horror formula. Which is something I as a Resident Evil fan greatly respect.
Silent Hill was never even a good survival horror series. Not a whole lot of survival involved when you have infinite inventory space and the game gives you enough ammo and health that there's never any challenge at all.
As long as Bloober don't frick with the story or characters I don't care what they do with the gameplay. If they can keep that and improve on the combat, I'll consider it a win. But asking Bloober to not be COMPLETE morons and do something completely tone death with the story is a BIG ask. So I'll remain cautious on the remake.
As a huge SH2 fan, this looks amazing. I don't get why everyone is hating on it. I'm going to play the original for the first time in anticipation of the remake.
looks kind of like shit, and it's something they fail to hide with their shitty mist transitions and smash-cuts. for all that this is some kind of "HD RE-IMAGINING" of the game, it looks very sub-par.
damn i knew they were going to keep true to the original or face backlash but it seems too true to the original. also what is that sound track jesus christ don't tell me yamaokas finally fallen off.
If you had to direct a Silent Hill game, what would you do? >Make it about violence as a central theme >Not revenge or anything gay like that, but simply violence >MC, a woman, is implied to be dangerous at the start >As the game goes on, she gets more worn-down and savage looking >Combat is difficult and messy, with our protagonist facing highly aggressive enemies that want to kill you. You can also inflict brutality on them as well, with moves like charges and tackles. Simulate the feeling of a real fight where people bullrush you and you just lash out as a result >Guns are a 1 hit kill also >The big reveal is that our MC has never hurt anyone in her life and has no actual reason to. She's simply massively thin skinned and everything pisses her off, but she just constantly pushes her violent urges downwards because she's afraid of consequences, and now her impotent rage has reached a boiling point.
Make it about how our protagonist is a massive coward for being unable to follow through with her rage, as well as a horrible person for wanting to brutalize people to begin with for such petty reasons as being mean to her.
>God it feels so unbelievably fricking good seeing everything you worthless pieces of shit ever cared around ruined and dragged through the mud. Fricking seethe, SEETHE for me you disgusting filth. So so SO good!!
It looks ok. Just ok tho. Simply ok. Not getting any really bad vibes from it just yet. I'm sure once they show cutscenes is when people will really start noticing the flaws.
They honestly could have won people over if it was just an "environment" trailer to show off how the old game looks compared to the new. Could still be fruitless, but better than a giant fricking x button mashing and enemies not flinching to a fricking shotgun
I'm honestly surprised they haven't done this yet, as it seems like the easiest way to build hype. This fact doesn't give me confidence. I'll keep coping and saying "It might be alright!" til it comes out and disappoints me, but there's so many little things in the stuff they put out that nags me.
wow this looks fricking terrible
if you replaced the monster models with anything else I'd think this was any old shitty 3rd person western shooter
modern game engines really are soulless garbage
>monkey developers not the tools
These exact devs use these popular engines because it's so easy to just download some type of shooting module and hook it straight into their game
They didn't sit there and actually program how the guns work or how the enemies move, they use easily available models and scripts and shit and just dump it in their game, this entire project and all other games just like this are derivative trash because of this
There isn't a game like it at all and we are well over the 20 years mark since its release. I would say 1 deserves overall more accolades but 2 will stand through time.
It's probably one of the best uses of using video games as a story telling medium. As an actual game? Or even as horror? Not really, Silent Hill 3 has it beat with that.
>The Silent Hill team has decided to start a new campaign to promote the SH2 remake by releasing several free to use stickers of SH2 characters drawn as basedjaks
I actually liked 4. I just think the backtracking later game was a little tedious, and some of the new mechanics and ideas were obviously pretty experimental.
it was always meant to be four. It was in parallel development with three that was more traditional while four took the experimental route trying out new takes on all core mechanics
>Everybody likes Silent Hill 2 but the combat was asssssss. We're gonna bring Silent Hill 2 to a modern audience. With quick time events, button mashing, bloody screenshaking, and over the shoulder shooting. >The game flopped? Guess Silent Hill is just unviable, time to shelve it for another 15 years
- Developers who never even liked or understood Silent Hill
You're on Ganker, buddy. People ranting about not just israelites, not just pollacks, not just trannies, but israeli troony Pollacks over every minor inconvenience is par for the course.
/misc/ being moronic doesn't make shit stink less, though.
Looks fine. Don't understand the homosexuals complaining about the combat being jank, that's exactly in line with the original and I thought you gays wanted a faithful remake. And for the homosexuals complaining that it looks too combat heavy, they literally showed scenes where combat would take place in the original too.
The thing is it's trying not to be jank and it can't even do that right. Combat in SH2 for the most part was optional outside of very few mandatory parts which it didn't even show.
You can see this with p3r and ff7r >Ff7r is a sequel but still using old plot alas mk9 >NOOOOOO JUST REMAKE THE ORIGINAL >P3R is a remake and the main story adds some more backstory >NOOOOO WHY NOT PLAY THE OG INSTEAD
>that's exactly in line with the original

It's honestly insane.
In the original they didn't even show the body properly, because they couldn't model the inside of the fridge.

>It's just a dude.
Yes, that's the fricking point the original missed.
Eddie isn't killing monsters, he's killing human beings.
It removes the ambiguity from the scene. At first you're not sure if Eddie just killed a monster and is shocked. You only find out he's a killer way later into the game
>detail

What's sad is you're raging about the remake actually managing to grasp the point better than the original level designer did and you aren't even aware of it. It's not a monster, it's a human, it's Eddies victim.
[...]
[...] >It's just a dude.
Yes, that's the fricking point the original missed.

That's the guy Eddie murdered in the apartments so I think it's supposed to look like a normal human. Not scary at all in the bottom pic though
Sure, that's fine, I'm not really complaining about the graphics. It's the angle. It's not as unsettling to just see the whole thing. It crosses over into true crime territory
>detail

Eddie was supposed to see the guy as a monster. James just sees a normal dude. So if anything the OG is wrong here. Probably a limitation though

I guess it's still going? I was seeing clips of it posted around on twitter when it was new and people were still following it for a laugh, but I guess it was so boring that people stopped doing it even for a laugh?
I'm still worried about the director - he's not okay.
Look I care so little about it I didn't even google him to find out what his position even is. I just remember seeing his live stream and dying a little bit inside from second hand embarrassment.

Sorry guys, my favorite reaction channel thought it looked fire on god. Your opinions mean nothing compared to rich, attractive, confident people like this.
i let on that i play games at work and a girl who never played an SH game and named her cats Aloy and Ellie said SH2R looked super cool and my brain froze up because i knew if i said anything it would expose me as the freak moron i am
if it makes it sound anymore believable i dont mean an attractive girl, shes like 37 and currently NB. these kinds of consumers are who make up the majority of the game industry audience now
Looks low budget and the redone soundtrack sounds generic as frick. No one was expecting this to be good but I think if they did SH1 instead they would've had a better shot at making a good remake. SH1 is about as generic as the first 1-4 SHs get, SH2 is a character study where every facet of gameplay reflects the story and state of mind of the protag. Same thing with 3&4. But they just skipped to SH2 because everyone likes that one I guess.
>No one was expecting this to be good
Anyone who found out about the series from either PT or Dead by Daylight's Pyramid Head DLC, was excited for this.
Normies who are too moronic to pirate and patch the original on PC, are all excited for this.
Only a fraction of die hard fans think it looks like shit, tbh.
Lol at all those morons thinking the problem is the limited budget.
You could've given Bloober Team the US' annual GDP and they would've still put out shit.
You can't just create talent overnight.
Especially considering the original was likely created on a much tighter budget.
Bloober would've never created something as good as Team Silent's SH2, no matter how big of a budget they were given. I think anyone looking forward to the remake would've hoped it would be a fun reimagining sort of like RE2R. You can't create something like RE2R without the budget to go alongside it. This looks like the worst of both worlds where it's not as good as the original and it's not good on its own merits. It's just hollow and uninspired. It's really no wonder people are comparing it unfavorably to those games.
>Bloober would've never created something as good as Team Silent's SH2, no matter how big of a budget they were given.
Same goes for them being able to create a RE2R level game.
They never created an action game, while Capcom has some of the best gameplay designers in the world, when it comes to action.
Also every single game Bloober made just straight up sucked, when it came to the gameplay, assuming they even had gameplay mechanics that didn't involve walking and opening doors.
Which would honestly be enough for Silent Hill, but they also suck ass in modeling and animating humans, as well as writing, since all their games have a chronic lack of subtlety.
The thing that fricks me up is they're using the RE2 Remake over the shoulder aiming for the guns which means your going to be incredibly accurate if you're not braindead, but still keeping the shitty melee. So instead of the sense of being better off avoiding enemies you get from the clunky aim and melee in the original you will now just never want to use the melee options because shooting will be better in every situation.
>So instead of the sense of being better off avoiding enemies
This was never true in Silent Hill, unlike Resident Evil.
In the city you avoided monsters because it was simply too moronic to stop and fight in such an open space, but in enclosed spaces, it was just faster and more convenient to kill everything, since you had almost infinite ammo anyway (at least on normal).
That's how most people play the game.
Also avoiding enemies is a necessity even on normal (or what they now call hard, for some reason).
Anyway, what i said it's still tru on hard, you're just better off stun locking enemies to death, than avoiding them every time you need to solve a puzzle.
>Also avoiding enemies is a necessity even on normal (or what they now call hard, for some reason).
*In Resident Evil, i meant.
While it isn't in Silent Hill.

its literally nu-resident evil. Why the frick we cant have nice things like fixed camera angles but the rooms look nice and detailed? Like in the gamecube remake of re1
>Fixed camera angles in a Silent Hill game
are you moronic
well not completely fixed. You know like in sh1
do you really need them juicy headshots? Even when some of the monsters dont have fricking heads. Just shoot it and it dies
silent hill literally has those in certain segments
Yep. Not always, but Silent Hill really went for cinematic camera angles where appropriate. Yes, I know how much the word "Cinematic" has poisoned the industry, but it wasn't as tryhard back then.
>why can't we have nice things like shitty fixed camera angles where you can't even aim your fricking gun that only existed due to technical limitations
Good thing absolutely no one on this board will ever get to make design decisions on any video game ever.
Jokes on you I make such decisions all the time (as a reviewer)
>Why the frick we cant have nice things like fixed camera angles but the rooms look nice and detailed?
SH barely had fixed camera except for certain key areas you absolute nonce.
>Why the frick we cant have nice things like fixed camera angles but the rooms look nice and detailed?
Because it's literally not necessary anymore. The whole reason for pre-rendered backgrounds in the first place was graphical limitations. Games can reach that level of detail now without having to use a pre-rendered background
Silent Hill never had pre-rendered backgrounds you stupid fricking moron. Why is this thread full of people who never played the games?
>why is a Ganker thread filled with morons who haven't played the game they're posting about
Where do you think you are?
I'm aware Silent Hill never had pre-rendered backgrounds, fricktard. Dude I replied to asked why you don't see games like Resident Evil that use pre-rendered backgrounds and I simply explained that it's an obsolete technique. I never claimed Silent Hill used it.
>its literally nu-resident evil
nu-RE at least have decent gunplay which this remake doesn't have even the walking animation looks amateurish. This is gonna be as bad as homecoming maybe even worse

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2124490/SILENT_HILL_2/
You know it's gonna be bad when even Akira Yamaoka is phoning it in. The compression and tone of the theme of laura song playing at the end is absolutely dreadful. What happened to the textured dreamlike quality he composed for the original OST? You can literally hear the grit on each track.
he's probably not just using cheap royalty-free sample CDs from 1993 anymore
yeah, SH2 has amazing OST, why did the new trailer use a weird remix
it's unironically over
>Fixes the worst part about SH
>Gankersama.....its over.....
Buncha losers
Thank you blooberteam
It's unironically over.
Holy frick every year is worse than the past one.
Kill videogames industry.
AI will help for the better, everyone laughs at me when i say this but i really think its gonna be that way. Indies will be able to make larger and better looking games but make them experimental
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>OH MY GOD IS THAT A BUTTON PROMPT IN THE MIDDLE OF MY SCREEN? IT'S LITERALLY FRICKING OVER
They're better ways to do something like that. The games is all about immersion, throwing non-diegetic elements just prove how Blooberteam does not know a shit about the og game.
But we already knew that.

Shut the frick up, oldfriend. This isn't your board anymore.

If you had showed me this yesterday I would've assumed it was a joke webm like that other one with the obnoxious hud and James swearing every two seconds.
Besides the fact that he's struggling against an enemy with no arms, I find the bloody screen + green splatter to be the worst part of the .webm
>JAAAAASON
>IT'S YOU THAT I CHAAAASE ON
Downpour looks better and that had the budget of a pimento cheese sandwich.
Downpour was a good game and by far the best western attempt at SH.
Nah I dunno about that one, awful shit monster designs and a pants on head moronic story.
Only cool thing to come out of Downpour were the sex doll enemies that spawn invisible clones you can only see with UV light.
I agree with those points BUT the atmosphere was great, especially in the town, and some of the set pieces like the puzzle play were very enjoyable. I liked it, played through multiple times in spite of the monsters being gigachad and the literal boogieman. The story was a very western (literal) take but that’s honestly okay too, still a fun and atmospheric game.
Why is he grappling with an enemy with no arms? Lmao what a shitshow
>Oh you did NOT just fricking do that!
>Achievement Unlocked: Your drip is dripping
JUST MOVE OUT OF THE WAY, IT CAN'T GRAB YOU JAAAAAAAAAAAAAMEEEEES
lmao literally call of duty screen goop for damage intensity, except its green instead of red. depressing how normalized all these moronic tropes have become that a ton of people wont even see anything wrong with it being in a silent hill game
>NOOOOOOOO NOT THE NICKELODEON SLIME AAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE
how the frick do struggle against a thing that doesn't even have arms to grab you
silent hill is so mysterious... it could be for any twisted reason your mind imagines..................
maybe this represents his guilt of jacking off or sth, idk.
im giving it 50/50 that they actually put a reference in like a note or something that james had a literal porn addiction.
How do you struggle with a monster with no arms? Is it covered in sticky slime like a fly trap?
Functional strength. Never skip leg day.
...so nobody watched the full video?
Real Silent Hill 2 fan right here making massive assumptions based on absolutely nothing.
What sovlfvl gameplay, truly Silent Hill has been saved...
oh god im BLOOBING
I get that it's supposed to be acid but it just has that kiddie nintendo censored blood look.
I TURNED MYSELF INTO A FIGURE MORTYYYYY
holy fricking shit lmaoooooooooo JUST TURN AROUND
god videogames suck
It looks fine, what the frick are you nitpickers complaining about now?
The clear downgrade in combat and monster design from the original.
>downgrade
looks way better
>monster design
looks exactly the same, stop whining tendie
literally re4
horrible trailer compressed with artifacts all over the screen like it was made in 5 min
they should have put auto aim and make it 1 to 1 with the OG game
Why is this giving me RE vibes instead of Silent Hill? Not sure what to think
because its the same gameplay that new REs have, its more action focused
It's obviously a combat trailer, so I won't complain too much, but I don't like the look of the combat. Mainly, I don't want it to be the main game mechanic. So I'm hoping they were just going out of their way to show it off. Also, the over the shoulder view just feels wrong for SH.
It's so funny when people like you pretend you know the first thing about SH
I know I played it years back in the PS1 and PS2. Thought Shattered Memories was interesting, but didn't really care for anything after 4. Origins was *okay*, but didn't care for it cuz the narrative sucked. I know what I'm about with this series.
>It's obviously a combat trailer
It's a fricking Silent Hill game, it should not need a fricking combat trailer
Yeah, I admit I'm coping pretty hard.
> Literally Silent Hill Homecoming Combat
Yeah, I was thinking that too. And I'm not a big fan.
who knows I could totally be wrong and they couldve improved on what homecoming failed at, but then again its 2024 and people are half-assing alot of things everyday

Why are trannies this sadistic?
Remember trannies are the most miserable creatures on earth, no matter what they might try and tell you it's only a facade hiding their pathetic existence
Lack of love, unironically
Not even incels spend time and money boycotting telenovela and shoujos for women since even incels respect others people's space
>Why are trannies this sadistic?
even if take aside their mental illnesses, what do we know about trannies? they are former incels, not only in the literal meaning but a lot of them were militant incels too, think of the "pinkpill" and "if i cant have a gf i become the gf", shit like that.
have any of you actually went to an incel forum? i mean an actual incel forum, they are the one of the most bitter, sadistic, pathetic, slaveish, vermin-likes ressentment fuelled demographic that there is, now imagine those people on estrogen, thats all you need to know about the trans psyche, they are quite literaly the most broken, sadistic, disgusting and moraly grotesque people around, most of them make the average Ganker dweller look like a paragon of virtue and humanity.

Ok chud, that one is good
The vast vast vast vast majority of school shooters aren't trannies. You're hyper-focusing on a tiny number of trannies and ignoring the massive number of incels.
You also have no interest whatsoever in actually addressing mass shootings. Don't fricking talk about murdered children, you do not care.
Neither do you.
>n-no you're just as much of a psychopath as me! that makes it okay!
No. have a nice day you fricking scum of the earth.

For me, it's sadistic troons like you crying foul when receiving the same sadism you've subjected others to. Nothing more enraging than a cowardly tyrant enabled by the social environment.
imagine trying to dunk on silent hill "fans" of all people. Their souls have already been hollowed out by shit games that I'm surprised they're still even alive
Silent Hill fans won't be affected by this.
Its the SH2 gays that have been plaguing the fanbase for a long time that are getting btfo. We actual Silent Hill fans are just BREEZING
Total troony Death is cool, awesome and morally justified.
Normally I would call you a filthy troony and tell you to have a nice day. But SH2 gays actually deserve this

the person who made this comment LOOKS like this btw
i look like rip torn
Also their wiener is 8 inches
brother i can play sh2 rn what are you talking about
just watched
holy fricking shit bros
its just remake 2 but by random people and with half the budget
who the FRICK asked for this
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
Seems very actiony but wait and see.
I'll be honest, taking into account the fact that the original's combat was awful, the game on the whole still looks meh.
I still have some hope for F and the short message...
>Instead of doing its own thing its a straight Crapcom REmakes rip off
Why cant the series just stay dead? Its already bad enough everything after 3 was made.
Damn they have the shills working OVERDRIVE these past couple of months holy shit you guys must be working 24 fricking hours inbetween shilling for SS this game palworld enshrouded prince of persia etc
>back in the day sh made a real effort to become its own thing, apart from resident evil
>couple decades later and sh2 remake team literally aims to be the next re4 remake
guess that's what you get with hacks at the helm
>>back in the day sh made a real effort to become its own thing, apart from resident evil
You mean just the first game?
SH2 was directly made with keen awareness of RE's popularity, and SH3 was almost a fricking rail shooter.
Game designers take inspiration from what's popular to make their own thing? No shit? SH 2 and 3 still didn't feel like Resi games. There have been actual arcade rail shooters of the franchise, though. I think only in Japan.
>sh2 remake team literally aims to be the next re4 remake
Looks like they are trying to do the exact opposite of a good remake. Needless to say, they are succeeding.
.
Isn't this supposed to be a horror game that keeps you in your toes or whatever with suspenseful music and shit? Why are they marketing this as an action game with badass combat music in the background as you mow down countless enemies?
Do these homosexuals know they are remaking silent hill not fricking resident evil?
>hey remember how in the original everyone in the town sans Laura are act kinda weird but you're never really suppossed to think James did something wrong until the big reveal?
>HERE'S ((SYMBOLISM)) A BLIND MAN COULD UNDERSTAND, JAMES DID SOMETHING THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WATCH OUT WATCH OUT
In their defense it's not like the SH2 twist is unknown these days. I'm not defending the decision, but it's kind of hard to remake something that everyone knows the ending to.
This has always been a bullshit argument. See the morons that created FFVII ((Remake)) saying the same thing as to why Sephiroth keeps poping into scenes every five minutes yet how many people have you seen over the past four years on the internet playing the game truly thinking it was a faithful remake, and playing it blind as their first FF? There will ALWAYS be people that will play the game as their first outing in the series after the only thing they'd have heard about it being it's "le best game ever made" with no specifics. Again, just like the stupid amounts of people that played FFVIIR and legit had no idea Aeris fricking dies.
You mean a message that's purposefully obscure given the low amount of people that will return to Neely's Bar post-Brookhaven?
>>hey remember how in the original everyone in the town sans Laura are act kinda weird but you're never really suppossed to think James did something wrong until the big reveal?
Who would think this meant James did something wrong on their first playthrough, it's more likely you consider it a warning or a threat,
>a bloodied corpse in my horror game? Surely this means that the corpse is me the protagonist, and that I am an unreliable narrator and have killed the person I'm here looking for!
You don't need to reinvent the wheel because everyone already knows what a wheel looks like. If something works it works.
it doesnt work just because its a twist, its narratively interesting because even on replays you go in with the knowledge that james is repressing the guilt and you can now try to make sense out of some of the strange shit, some of which fits neatly with this knowledge, some of it not. this is just the same old modern trend of whacking the subtext with a sledgehammer until it becomes plain text.
>>hey remember how in the original everyone in the town sans Laura are act kinda weird but you're never really suppossed to think James did something wrong until the big reveal?
90% of people miss this easter egg, try again
>source: I made it up

LMAO, just look around while you move in the game
I literally didn't know about the twist until I browsed this thread.
even if its fake I still hate her fricking guts, shes ugly and has ruined several game franchises
Is it actually not a remake, but some kind of universal/time frickery due to occult rituals?
Looked like shit. Genuinely.
Yes
N-No! It can't be! my personal demons!!
>REgays are laughing at us again
REmake5/RE9 whatever what gonna comes first gonna destroy this game its gonna be hilarious...
Better luck next time James!
REmake remake soon
all that shake of the camera makes me nauseus.
Behold! the great combat of Silent Hill 2
You just don't understand that the combat was minimalistic on purpose to accentuate the feeling of horror that permeates the entire game.
>to accentuate the feeling of horror that permeates the entire game.
Yeah and whats that? dick guilt for having a hard on? wow so horrifying, so deep. I'm think I gonna watch some cringe moronic youtuber essay now
James is a psychopath who killed his wife, he's not exactly a good example of sexual health.
>combat was minimalistic
it wasnt, the game keeps shoving combat encounters over my throat. it kills the pacing and removes any scare factor because the combat is piss easy and tedious and boring.
If they made it like SOMA, a literal walking sim with few enemies it would have been way way better.
>feeling of horror
what horror? there is nothing scary about the game, outside of its good atmosphere, nothing is really scary, as the player will often have counteless resources thanks to the poorly designed gameplay systems, there is too much ammo and resources and your wooden stick gets the job done all the time except the bosses.
enemies post no threat as they just stand next to you like morons while you wreck their shit easily.
they had the foundation for a very scary game but thanks to poorly design gameplay they killed that. look at Eddy's fight its actual comedy hole shit.
good surreal horror should be a bizarre and a little goofy and eddys boss fight adds to that. im not going to pretend all that was intentional, SH2's success is like 90% lightning in a bottle and luck. a bunch of confused japs threw a ton of disparate inspirations at the floor and they happened to land in such an arrangement that it worked. its not a game that should have ever been touched again after release because you can never replicate that.
>a bunch of confused japs threw a ton of disparate inspirations at the floor and they happened to land in such an arrangement that it worked
did you even play it
don't answer, I already know you didn't
yeah dude youre right theres absolutely no outside film tv or book influences, especially western ones
Did YOU even played it? or just you just watched some cringe youtube doomer essay?
>you just watched some cringe youtube doomer essay
projecting, hard
>Being able to fight enemies and your own fears makes every single game way more scary because in every single dangerous situation (You) are put into a stressful position where you don't know what's the best course of action. Games like Silent Hill are scary because every time you face an enemy you are actively panicking thinking about whether you should fight or run away while worrying about how many resources and health you have left. Games where you cannot fight or defend yourself are boring because they always leave you with one ingle option of running away which gets really old really fast. There's nothing less scary than solving every problem with one solution
And it was kino.
here now you can post that without having some homosexuals face in there ruining everything
SOUL
Much better
lol, i love his face though, it proves how boring and mundane the combat is, so i will keep the one with the face, thank you very much.
do zoomies really...
Yes they really. I used to think the joke in that one Sseth video where he censored with soap-cutting and subway surfers footage was a joke, and only later learned people will play footage of those on serious videos to keep the zoomers engaged for ad revenue.
Horror games need jank kino combat. A horror game without janky combat is like an angle without its wings.
SOVL KINO and iconic
the series needed to comeback like RE7 not Operation raccoon city
Funny because I think RE7 and that series' revival was partly because of inspiration from P.T.
Silent Hill 2 has transitioned from a jank RE clone with vastly inferior gameplay to... a jank modern RE clone with vastly inferior gameplay. Bravo Blooper.
SH1-3 are better than any RE game, cope.
t. huge fan who has only watched youtube videos
Resident Evil went from awesome sci-fi zombie horror to The Matrix with coomer shit.
Silent Hill always stayed with the survival horror formula. Which is something I as a Resident Evil fan greatly respect.
Silent Hill was never even a good survival horror series. Not a whole lot of survival involved when you have infinite inventory space and the game gives you enough ammo and health that there's never any challenge at all.
SH1, 3 and 4 completely mogs classic REddit Evil games
only Reddit Hill 2 was worse
Remake looks gay not buying it
It's been over for more than a decade now. This series is somehow just as, if not more mismanaged than sonic. Just give up on it entirely.
As long as Bloober don't frick with the story or characters I don't care what they do with the gameplay. If they can keep that and improve on the combat, I'll consider it a win. But asking Bloober to not be COMPLETE morons and do something completely tone death with the story is a BIG ask. So I'll remain cautious on the remake.
As a huge SH2 fan, this looks amazing. I don't get why everyone is hating on it. I'm going to play the original for the first time in anticipation of the remake.
>Lighting is excellent
>But they got rid of the over the shoulder perspective
>RE clone combat
if any of you actually played and understood SH2, you would already know it doesn't need a remake
They got the melee right at least
This is what Silent Hill 2 fans deserve after years of saying Silent Hill 2 was the best. Us Silent Hill 1 fans will keep laughing.
>if any of you actually played and understood SH2, you would already know it doesn't need a remake
It looks like a PS2 game, a generic one that isn't the original Silent Hill 2.
NAME SAY "MARY" OR SOME SHIT
whatever I still think it looks kino
looks kind of like shit, and it's something they fail to hide with their shitty mist transitions and smash-cuts. for all that this is some kind of "HD RE-IMAGINING" of the game, it looks very sub-par.
It kind of looks worse than Homecoming.
damn i knew they were going to keep true to the original or face backlash but it seems too true to the original. also what is that sound track jesus christ don't tell me yamaokas finally fallen off.
If you had to direct a Silent Hill game, what would you do?
>Make it about violence as a central theme
>Not revenge or anything gay like that, but simply violence
>MC, a woman, is implied to be dangerous at the start
>As the game goes on, she gets more worn-down and savage looking
>Combat is difficult and messy, with our protagonist facing highly aggressive enemies that want to kill you. You can also inflict brutality on them as well, with moves like charges and tackles. Simulate the feeling of a real fight where people bullrush you and you just lash out as a result
>Guns are a 1 hit kill also
>The big reveal is that our MC has never hurt anyone in her life and has no actual reason to. She's simply massively thin skinned and everything pisses her off, but she just constantly pushes her violent urges downwards because she's afraid of consequences, and now her impotent rage has reached a boiling point.
Make it about how our protagonist is a massive coward for being unable to follow through with her rage, as well as a horrible person for wanting to brutalize people to begin with for such petty reasons as being mean to her.
>MC, a woman
That's the point. Why can't a woman be an impotently angry butthole?
Master the setting and town + atmosphere first and foremost.
Looks alright but holy shit the sound for the pistol is awful. The rifle's sound effect sounds great though.
HOOTIE HOO homie

Why do publishers keep doing this?
>that absolute bastardization of Akira Yamayoka's music
Wah happun
To be fair if I had to have my name attached to the shit Konami has been putting out for decades I'd phone it in too.
he bastardized it himself
>that music
It looks ok. Just ok tho. Simply ok. Not getting any really bad vibes from it just yet. I'm sure once they show cutscenes is when people will really start noticing the flaws.
Yamaoka is over the hill
They honestly could have won people over if it was just an "environment" trailer to show off how the old game looks compared to the new. Could still be fruitless, but better than a giant fricking x button mashing and enemies not flinching to a fricking shotgun
I'm honestly surprised they haven't done this yet, as it seems like the easiest way to build hype. This fact doesn't give me confidence. I'll keep coping and saying "It might be alright!" til it comes out and disappoints me, but there's so many little things in the stuff they put out that nags me.
It's Bloobover
>They turned SH into a shitty RE knock off
Not even a Silent Hill gay but goddamn who thought this was a good idea
So they turned it into the same thing it's always been?
What exactly did the series take from Resi? I've played a bit of old school Resi, and I'm not seeing it.
Yeah but even shittier this looks like a sequel to Cold Fear
You're supposed to put the better food on the left, not the right.
>literally just a single flat texture
I beat silent hill 2 this past October.
It's overrated. RE does it better.

It's missing the "press X to not die" prompt.
I'm fricking rolling its like the same walk animation

wow this looks fricking terrible
if you replaced the monster models with anything else I'd think this was any old shitty 3rd person western shooter
modern game engines really are soulless garbage
>Blaming the engine for the camera angle, animations, and gameplay
?
It's shit because of the monkey developers not the tools
>monkey developers not the tools
These exact devs use these popular engines because it's so easy to just download some type of shooting module and hook it straight into their game
They didn't sit there and actually program how the guns work or how the enemies move, they use easily available models and scripts and shit and just dump it in their game, this entire project and all other games just like this are derivative trash because of this
Could you link to the shooting module this game & others like it are all using?
Would you honestly consider SH2 to legitmately be one of the greatest video games in the entire medium?
No that’s SH1.
But enough opinions from a worthless piece of shit.
Geeze, you don’t need to get so upset.
Wouldn't even consider it a decent game.
maybe of the genre
Yes but not for the gameplay
The remake will be better
There isn't a game like it at all and we are well over the 20 years mark since its release. I would say 1 deserves overall more accolades but 2 will stand through time.
It's probably one of the best uses of using video games as a story telling medium. As an actual game? Or even as horror? Not really, Silent Hill 3 has it beat with that.
it's not even tbe best SH game
Reddit Hill 2 is an overrated Gaijinslop
Yes
Honestly I’m softening, looks better than expected.
The only thing softening around here is my dick.
maybe I could help you with that, anonkun… teehee
I like SH2, but I'm glad to see love for 1 in here. 1 and 3 are legitimately better than 2.
I dunno about all that. 2 is better than 3 for my money but 1 will never be topped.
Agreed. Too many people skip over 1.
Exactly
As a complete package I agree but on their own 1>2>3>4
>The Silent Hill team has decided to start a new campaign to promote the SH2 remake by releasing several free to use stickers of SH2 characters drawn as basedjaks
It's over
4gods we just can't stop winning
if they just woulda called it like "silent hill stories" or something instead of 4 it would have the reputation it deserves
I actually liked 4. I just think the backtracking later game was a little tedious, and some of the new mechanics and ideas were obviously pretty experimental.
And I also like a game that has the balls to screw over dumb players like they did with the doll.
the burping nurse staircase is the most soulful a game has ever been
Perfection.
it was always meant to be four. It was in parallel development with three that was more traditional while four took the experimental route trying out new takes on all core mechanics
i know. the fact that they were getting experimental and deviating so hard is why they shouldn't have called it 4
4 would be the best game in the franchise if you never left the apartment building
How would that work?
Like PT, except without all of the gay moronic nonsense.
But you're locked in the room

soulless shit and shit music, frick off polack trannies hope you get nuked by russia, glad your shithole is globohomosexual run by israelites
Behold, the average SH2R hater: a walking pantomime straight from /misc/.
The Polish have sinned for the last time
You're on Ganker, buddy. People ranting about not just israelites, not just pollacks, not just trannies, but israeli troony Pollacks over every minor inconvenience is par for the course.
/misc/ being moronic doesn't make shit stink less, though.
Ganker is literally just shills and coomers (of the worst kind)
and the turdie exposes itself with completely random seethe about poles out of the blue
Looks like shit. If I wanted to fight sand bags, I'd just replay DMC or Bayonetta.
Looks fine. Don't understand the homosexuals complaining about the combat being jank, that's exactly in line with the original and I thought you gays wanted a faithful remake. And for the homosexuals complaining that it looks too combat heavy, they literally showed scenes where combat would take place in the original too.
The thing is it's trying not to be jank and it can't even do that right. Combat in SH2 for the most part was optional outside of very few mandatory parts which it didn't even show.
>and I thought you gays wanted a faithful remake.
Excuse me, are you new? The Ganker cycle is very simple
Remake changes anything -> BAD, ruined the entire point of the original
Remake stays faithful -> BAD, ruined the entire point of a remake
You can see this with p3r and ff7r
>Ff7r is a sequel but still using old plot alas mk9
>NOOOOOO JUST REMAKE THE ORIGINAL
>P3R is a remake and the main story adds some more backstory
>NOOOOO WHY NOT PLAY THE OG INSTEAD
>THE OG
Why play OG when P3P exists
>that's exactly in line with the original
A remake is supposed to improve the original, not repeat the same mistakes. At least in the original the enemies reacted to every hit
>A remake is supposed to improve the original
Oh NOW it does, see you next FF7 thread where changing anything in a remake is bad.
you're both wrong, remakes are supposed to simply not exist as a rule
Shut up, turd worlder.
REtrash fricking sucked, play the original you cumskin pig
Actually moronic opinion.
REmake is the peak of the series, to this day.
And i played the original first, when it came out.
>REmake is the peak of the series
it's not even better than the game it's based on
>Better atmosphere.
>Better story.
>Lisa Trevor whole section.
>Obviously much better graphics that still hold up 22 years later.
>Better gameplay with the addition of Crimson Heads and defensive items.
Yup, you're moronic.
The only reasonable points you can make in favor of the original are based on nostalgia or le ironic shit FMV intro.
>>Lisa Trevor whole section.
yeah man
that boss fight where you push the pillars was REALLY exciting
>le ironic shit FMV intro
why would you think something that cool is shitty
>worse atmosphere.
>story insists upon itself
>Lisa Trevor whole section fricking sucked
>worse gameplay with the addition of Crimson Heads and defensive items.
fixed, the graphics were the only upgrade, even the music was worse in the remake there it had no kinos like this one
>Thing that makes the gameplay more interesting and deep is actually bad.
Ok, i fell for bait.
>Thing that makes the gameplay more tedious and deep is actually good i love slop!!!

>its just a little different

the scare factor went from 10 to 3
the original was legit terrifying i saw it worked perfectly with those old youtube conspiracy theory videos
Its not a scary track, its investigative
>REmake is the peak of the series, to this day.
peak poser opinion
claiming REtrash is better than the original is already laughable but saying it's the best in the series is a blasphemy
REtrash is barely better than it's sister slop Zero/10
>peak poser opinion
Says the moron who thinks that saying the original shitty ps1 title is better will make him look special.
Boiler plate contrarianism isn't cool.
>the original shitty ps1 title
zoom zoom you didn't even play it, and the OG is not even the best version of RE1 that's Deadly Silence a game you never heard of
>zoom zoom you didn't even play it
>Y-you didn't play it.
The last resort of a man with no arguments.
Stop wasting my time, homosexual.
i accept your concession zoomy
i mean i guess credit due for not even trying to emulate the tone of SH2 in the trailer so there's no mistaking the slop they're serving
I couldn't imagine someone having a single strand of hope for this game when Konami died years ago.
What makes people pretend to be fans of games they never played?
>I REACT To My DEAD Wife's Letter
I mean my expectation were LOW with Bloober on it but it actually looks worse than I was expecting, like really bad.
Also what the frick were they thinking doing a combat trailer for SH2?
Time for Ganker to pretend SH2 didn't have the worst combat of the entire 6th generation
That award goes to Rule of Rose.
sure but its not made better by poorly ripping off modern RE. its the same reason why Nintendo should not hire that man who puts mario in UE5
Everyone talking mad shit, accusing everyone else of getting their opinions from youtubers. What they fail to understand is, I'm an old man. I got my opinions from theory FAQs posted on gamefaqs before I knew what youtube was.
why does konami keep going to the lowest bidder? like it can't be profitable to destroy your ip as comphrehensibly as they have over the years by constantly going with the cheapest and worst studios and partners they could find
They have pachinko machines for everything, they don't give a frick about the actual games
Comprehensively.
Aw yeah. Gunplay and rock music is what I think of when think about Silent Hill 2.
LOOK AT HOW MUCH FRICKING DETAIL THEY ADDED!
It's honestly insane.
In the original they didn't even show the body properly, because they couldn't model the inside of the fridge.
>Me looking for the left over pizza at 3am
Why did they turn the weird creature into a dood with jeans?
>It's just a dude.
Yes, that's the fricking point the original missed.
Eddie isn't killing monsters, he's killing human beings.
>the original missed.
They look like monsters to you?
It removes the ambiguity from the scene. At first you're not sure if Eddie just killed a monster and is shocked. You only find out he's a killer way later into the game
its way scarier when you get to see thats it actually just some guy in there
top is scarier, which is good since it's a horror game
>detail
sure, very detailed, but
>angle
top is better. What the frick is that thing? Are those legs really human?
bottom just shows you it's some dude. Kinda goofy looking death too, shit fell on him
That's the guy Eddie murdered in the apartments so I think it's supposed to look like a normal human. Not scary at all in the bottom pic though
What's sad is you're raging about the remake actually managing to grasp the point better than the original level designer did and you aren't even aware of it. It's not a monster, it's a human, it's Eddies victim.
I'm raging? Really? Read that again
Sure, that's fine, I'm not really complaining about the graphics. It's the angle. It's not as unsettling to just see the whole thing. It crosses over into true crime territory
Eddie was supposed to see the guy as a monster. James just sees a normal dude. So if anything the OG is wrong here. Probably a limitation though
Still no release date, so they have time to fix it. Definitely.
>I'm a HUGE Silent Hill fan, I've watched all 3 games on youtube
you’ve been posting the same seethe all thread, where’s this coming from
From mocking homosexuals pretending SH2 wasn't peak unplayable jank gameplay because they watched someone else play it instead of experiencing the trash first hand
Just because you're 15 doesn't mean we all are. Some of us actually owned a ps2.
it extremely playable. you just run past them. are you sure you played it
>it's heckin over.......
Are you homosexuals serious? NO ONE should have been interested in this garbage ever. NO ONE should have any faith in a Konami game. Something cannot be over if it never started in the fricking first place. Tell me you morons are joking ffs
This, the moment I saw Bloober Team being the developer, then I knew it was over
Metal Gear Survive was good. All of the Metal Gears without Kojima were good except the NES port.
Whatever happened to that SH online psuedo-tv series thing?..and also what was it called? Was it Ascension? I kinda forgot.
I guess it's still going? I was seeing clips of it posted around on twitter when it was new and people were still following it for a laugh, but I guess it was so boring that people stopped doing it even for a laugh?
I'm still worried about the director - he's not okay.
>director
He was the CEO I thought, not director
Look I care so little about it I didn't even google him to find out what his position even is. I just remember seeing his live stream and dying a little bit inside from second hand embarrassment.
for a while every update would get hundred of people just replying with this gif and then they all got bored of that and now i think like 10 people are paying attention at all
Still going, it’s about a 15 week long project. But most people lost interest since everyone found out the events were mostly made by AI.
>Whatever happened to that SH online psuedo-tv series thing?
New episode streams every couple weeks. Everyone shows up to spam mocking emotes in the chat and then everyone goes back to ignoring it for a couple weeks. It's currently on a mid season break
Sorry guys, my favorite reaction channel thought it looked fire on god. Your opinions mean nothing compared to rich, attractive, confident people like this.
i let on that i play games at work and a girl who never played an SH game and named her cats Aloy and Ellie said SH2R looked super cool and my brain froze up because i knew if i said anything it would expose me as the freak moron i am
nice larp kiddo
if it makes it sound anymore believable i dont mean an attractive girl, shes like 37 and currently NB. these kinds of consumers are who make up the majority of the game industry audience now
>wearing a hat indoors
>confident
Shut the frick up white b***h pussy.
Pretty much everything about this is wrong. But then the idea was moronic in the first place
bone chilling horror soibois asked
With the focus on gunplay in the trailer, they must have to change the parameters on how you get the different endings.
Killing enemies doesn't matter, its about how often you heal and how protective you are of Maria
I thought killing enimies and looking at the photo also affected them?
The photo and letter does, killing enemies is a factor in one of the SH3 endings though
Ah I see, I guess I just always assumed but never looked it up.
>I thought killing enimies
You're thinking SH3
>People want Amnesia horror back
people want decent comabt, this shit in the trailer is bad as the no comabt walking simulator slop
>people want decent comabt
Reddit Hill 2 fans love trash combat
Reddit Hill 2 fans are not people they're animals
the comabr in this garbage remake looks like Homecoming 2: Bloober Boogalo
Who are you quoting?
Early Amnesia was no combat, hide-and-seek. You only got some guns for self-defense in The Bunker.
This looks more like RE2 or 4 remakes.
Silent Hill 1 bros stay winning.
You got raped in the ass enough on the Wii, with that Shattered Memories shit, lmao.
Honestly Shattered Memories was pretty good.
From Silent Hill to Soýlent Hill
more like goyslop hill 2
*generic kick sound*
threads dying, everyones just saying reddit hill and onions hill
Looks low budget and the redone soundtrack sounds generic as frick. No one was expecting this to be good but I think if they did SH1 instead they would've had a better shot at making a good remake. SH1 is about as generic as the first 1-4 SHs get, SH2 is a character study where every facet of gameplay reflects the story and state of mind of the protag. Same thing with 3&4. But they just skipped to SH2 because everyone likes that one I guess.
>No one was expecting this to be good
Anyone who found out about the series from either PT or Dead by Daylight's Pyramid Head DLC, was excited for this.
Normies who are too moronic to pirate and patch the original on PC, are all excited for this.
Only a fraction of die hard fans think it looks like shit, tbh.
>Only a fraction of die hard fans think it looks like shit
The YouTube comments tell a different story.
https://imgur.com/WW6NUsb
Lol at all those morons thinking the problem is the limited budget.
You could've given Bloober Team the US' annual GDP and they would've still put out shit.
You can't just create talent overnight.
Especially considering the original was likely created on a much tighter budget.
Bloober would've never created something as good as Team Silent's SH2, no matter how big of a budget they were given. I think anyone looking forward to the remake would've hoped it would be a fun reimagining sort of like RE2R. You can't create something like RE2R without the budget to go alongside it. This looks like the worst of both worlds where it's not as good as the original and it's not good on its own merits. It's just hollow and uninspired. It's really no wonder people are comparing it unfavorably to those games.
>Bloober would've never created something as good as Team Silent's SH2, no matter how big of a budget they were given.
Same goes for them being able to create a RE2R level game.
They never created an action game, while Capcom has some of the best gameplay designers in the world, when it comes to action.
Also every single game Bloober made just straight up sucked, when it came to the gameplay, assuming they even had gameplay mechanics that didn't involve walking and opening doors.
Which would honestly be enough for Silent Hill, but they also suck ass in modeling and animating humans, as well as writing, since all their games have a chronic lack of subtlety.
what the frick is that fricking music lmaoooo
>action montage
JESUS...
PH showdown remake version
N-No! Not my personal demons!!

If somebody told me Konami would turn Silent Hill into Resident Evil, I wouldn't believe them. Now look where we are...
They saw this magazine cover and turned it into a game.
SOVL
The thing that fricks me up is they're using the RE2 Remake over the shoulder aiming for the guns which means your going to be incredibly accurate if you're not braindead, but still keeping the shitty melee. So instead of the sense of being better off avoiding enemies you get from the clunky aim and melee in the original you will now just never want to use the melee options because shooting will be better in every situation.
>So instead of the sense of being better off avoiding enemies
This was never true in Silent Hill, unlike Resident Evil.
In the city you avoided monsters because it was simply too moronic to stop and fight in such an open space, but in enclosed spaces, it was just faster and more convenient to kill everything, since you had almost infinite ammo anyway (at least on normal).
>playing on normal
Lol. Lmao.
That's how most people play the game.
Also avoiding enemies is a necessity even on normal (or what they now call hard, for some reason).
Anyway, what i said it's still tru on hard, you're just better off stun locking enemies to death, than avoiding them every time you need to solve a puzzle.
>Also avoiding enemies is a necessity even on normal (or what they now call hard, for some reason).
*In Resident Evil, i meant.
While it isn't in Silent Hill.
Whoa...So THIS is the power of a former Bloober developer...
>That excessive, super dramatic rendition of Betrayal
They just can't mimic the charm...
