The Silent Hill 2 Remake trailer did not impress the head of Bloober Team. "It doesn't reflect the spirit of the game"
Piotr Babieno - president of the Bloober Team studio - admitted in an interview that he understands the criticism that fell on the Silent Hill 2 Remake trailer presented during State of Play. In his opinion, the material prepared by the publisher "does not reflect the spirit of the game."
Let us remind you that the trailer with gameplay elements was criticized mainly for its unattractive visuals and the general feeling of stiffness and "wooden" . Judging by the statistics and comments on YouTube, the reception is rather mixed.
- I wrote these negative comments myself - jokes Babieno in an interview with the inwestyc.tv channel . - Quite seriously, we are not responsible for the marketing side. Our partner [Konami - note] is entirely responsible for this. ed]. [...] This trailer certainly does not reflect the spirit of the game .

>Switching over to what's internally known as Bloober Team 3.0, however, the studio will begin making horror games that are more action focused and require more from the player, perhaps closer to something like Resident Evil.
>"We decided that our next titles should be much more mass-market oriented. We’d like to talk with more people. We’d like to deliver our ideas, with our DNA, not by environment or storytelling, but by action. So all of our future titles will have a lot of gameplay mechanics. They will be much bigger."
>The first of these games will be the Silent Hill 2 remake
They should cancel that trash.
With bloober shifting the blame on Konami now I could see them doing that out of spite
They should, with this long development the game will need to sell like 6 million copies to turn into profit, not even RE4R was able to make these numbers in 1 year, they are truly fricked.
>with this long development
It's Poland they have a lower cost of living and wages.
>long development
Anon it's been 3 years
That's literally nothing.
Bloober has always been shit at the gameplay side of things but they do tell mature and well written stories. If silent hill 2 had great gameplay but a shit story they were tasked with rewriting, this might turn out good. However, this is a game with a fantastic story but shit gameplay, so what are they expected to do exactly?
And even so, making the combat too good creates a problem like SH5 where they justify the combat being better because the MC is a ex-army guy but in the end he was not a ex-army guy and was just a schizo so the gameplay is just a excuse to make Silent Hill feel like a shitty Zelda combat clone.
There'd be more focus on the combat looking goofy than being good. Like how the frick does a grapple qte work against something that doesn't have arms?
Why does it look like a dude wearing a trashbag now? The original design was way scarier, like a guy molten into rubbery skin contorting in ways no human can.
>Mature and well written stories
>The Medium
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Yes
Should have left 2 alone and remade 4 instead with new worlds instead of rehashing later in the game
Hey! That was a good idea.
Why does James look like that. He has the smallest forehead I've ever seen
Polish people please understand
>polish
>understand
penis
>The Silent Hill 2 Remake trailer did not impress the head of Bloober Team
What?
Clearly the guys on top of the development studio wasn't even involved in the project, and let the team do whatever they want. Or at least wasn't involved in the development of the trailer (which it's actually very important too)
This clearly is wrong and bad on so many levels, simply because the head didn't even know what the frick they were doing.
They're screwed
Konami manages marketing, not Bloober
somebody in pr needs to get this guy to stfu. yeah putting a bunch of jump cuts of ots shooting in an sh trailer probably wasn't the best idea but he's not helping anything.
Him and his studio have always been clowns
Whose hairline is that fricking low on the forehead? It's disturbing to look at. Even someone in their late 20's has a higher hairline than that.
My sister always had a very very low hairline and tons of hair, (even more as a child) with a tiny forehead.
Stop coping.. i bet you 99% of men would kill for that hairline
Does she like to eat bananas and climb trees, by any chance?
No but her bf does..
Nothing will satisfy sh2 autists
How can anyone take a dev with a name like bloober team seriously
SH Remake was doomed from the start when they decided to turn it into REmake 2, and update it for this elusive modern audience.
Its pretty funny how they openly shit on their publisher at any chance they get.
I don't think bloober are a very good studio but yea to their defense it must fricking hellish working with konami.
>Silent Hill homecoming combat didnt impress
who woulda thought? anyway I hope they can it and release whatever ports they have planned for steam
Eileen shaving
The trailer was shit, but you're ODing on Copium if you think that's the only problem with the game.
The shit QTEs, "reap what you saw", awful animations, etc aren't getting any better because you edit the trailer some other way.
>It looks like shit
>The animations are shit
>The presentation is shit
But if the trailer was edited to Black person rap and cut differently, you'd totally be impressed.
No
i dunno what the big fuss is all about..
yes the fog was lacking in the trailer, the graphics were so-so at best, and it looked almost like RE4-5 etc with the action camera, and the gun sounds was ba--
ok now i see why the trailer sucked lol..
anyway in the end of the day it's just a trailer, they can easily improve sounds and add fog and good music/atmosphere and it's all good
It’s a bloober developed silent hill 2 remake with modern day Konami. I’ve had ZERO faith in it since it was announced. They’re trying to capture a new audience that doesn’t fricking care about the silent hill games.
The best they can do right now to salvage the situation is them releasing a small demo just like nuRE games did.
You’re right but it Would never happen. The game is most likely a giant pile of shit and they’re trying to sucker as many people as possible to buy this garbage before they take the money and run.
Think about how crazy it is for the PRESIDENT of the company is shitting on their own game and publisher. It’s outright damage control blaming Konami without just literally saying it’s trash.
I give it a few months before this is canceled
Yup. This story kind of got out of control and is on every silent hill related forum on the internet. No doubt Konami is about to do something.
i hope so please god
>Konami and bloober cannibalize themselves over something that shouldn’t have been remade anyway
Best possible scenario
Holy frick the video of bloober teams president reacting to the remake combat trailer was taken down
HAHAHHAHAHHAHAH
>Bloober's CEO said in an interview on YouTube that he wasn't impressed with the combat trailer and that it didn't represent the essence of SH2. He also pointed at Konami saying that they are the ones responsible for the game's marketing. After a few hours, Konami most likely got wind of it and the interview got privated.
yeah something BAD is going to happen soon
I know Europeans are moronic but why the frick would be think effectively shitting on his boss' work is a good idea?
What boss? It was the president of Bloober that said it.
Konami, you know, the publisher
Oh well yeah that’s pretty fricking dumb of them to do that.
>Europeans are moronic
thats the mutts europeans are autistic
Konami is probably fricking them over in more ways than an awful trailer. Mr. bloober probably had enough of Konami's signature nonsense and lashed out. If that's the case I don't really blame him.
>probably
>probably
>If that's the case
An adult shouldn't potentially frick over his employees by throwing a public tantrum no matter the situation.
what would he the alternative? sucking nippon 1000 times folded dick? is that what you want?
It's always one extreme or another with you subhumans.
Did your 23 and me results come in or something or why are you obsessed with white people again Pedro?
Ito has proven himself to be a fricking hack sell out yet again.
How could he have known the game would be shit? Do you want him to build a time machine to refuse to contribute his talents?
Yes.
What contributions? Dude hasn’t done jack shit that was notable since SH3. If anything he’s been more involved with bad games than good at this point. Even the short message wasn’t good.
So what? The Short Message is bad because the producers decided it would be about extremely cringe first world zoomer problems, not his design. He barely has any affect on whether or not a project is good or not overall.
The otherworld was ass and so was the stupid fricking tree monster design. It was laughably stupid.
Considering the same monster is basically in SH2 & SH3 I'm thinking you're a biased moron who can't see past the dogshit story
>Considering the same monster is basically in SH2 & SH3
where?
These three look similar
not really
>Take a cute girl
>Give her giant arms and replace the head with some weird shit
This is as obvious as SH4 being about male genital mutilation.
The arms aren't even giant in the game and the head isn't weird shit it's just stupid cherry blossom flowers. It's good in a coomer sense but it's laughable if anyone actually finds this scary.
You know nothing of true terror.
I'm in a thread about a bloober team developed silent hill 2 remake. Of course I know what true terror is.
You wouldn't last ten seconds in a silent hill ascension thread, kid.
I watched silent hill revelation in the movie theater and actually paid money for it.
>KEEP GOING
holy lel
I knew Team Ninja was on the right track with their take on fatal frame
lol what the frick
it's like one of my japanese animes
You're winning son
You know, I almost liked short message, the art direction was solid and the premise about social-isolation in the social media age was good. The writing even improved toward the end. But that last chase sequence is genuinely one of the worst things I've played in recent memory.
>here's a big dark maze
>now find 5 tiny photos in some very samey corridors you've never seen before while an instant KOs monster chases you.
>the monster can also teleport to certain spots of the map lol
>Oh btw you have to start from the beginning if you die.
I did not much care for any of the chase sequences but to play devil's advocate:
- the game gave you hints where the items are via the smartphone
- the monster only teleports when you're running through a door that literally says "DON'T RUN" and if you're running it teleports to you
the WORST part about that maze shit is if you accidentally run into the final "door" before its unlocked, there is a good chance you're just dead; it needed to have a roundabout or something so you could exit that area fast, but instead its just a tiny hall and you have to double back, meaning if its close to you you're just basically dead
I dunno, I would have liked it more if it didn't have the AIDS chase sequences, felt really boring after a while but like, how else would one add conflict with weird monsters in that kind of game at all
Oh come one man.
There was a maze with 5 apartments.
Every apartment has one photo inside.
I literally did it on my first try you just go from one apartment to another and remember which doors you've already opened (the door number is literally on the door)
>in a coomer sense
the other design has arms with 2 vegana flap mouths and the flower girl is just a flower bush. coomers would probably frick that weird tube mouth first
>just replace the hands with two giant fleshlights
Bold of you to assume he did it as a sellout and not as a way to spite fans
Dude is tired of reading schizo SH2 theories from westerners
bump
Well it's promising that they are at least trying to fix it. But I don't have any hope that they will.
I have a gamer theory that short message is whatever was left over from Silent Hills, repackaged in a shitty story, just Konami trying to recoup their losses
Yeah it was clear Konami greenlit this because they saw the REmakes and wanted a piece of that audience. What they forget is that people love those because they're true to the atmosphere of the originals while elavating the gameplay to modern standards.
It's a bad look when the first trailer for a remake of your beloved, atmospheric horror game looks like someone cut RE4 (the PS2 version) gameplay cut to some random stock superhero music.
What a fricking disaster, bloober team is finished, Konami takes another L
All we wanted was SH2 but for the PC.
Mary where the frick are you.
>All we wanted was SH2 but for the PC.
It already exist.
Those things arent fricking human
a length in attach, things level the coppery week the closed sight sitting
Silent Shill Demake 2
silent hill is cursed man
I’m so frickin sick of everything modern needing to look hyperrealistic. Takes all the charm out.
Whatever happened to stylization?
Japanese games are still like that.
bring the and seeing university records the of as the
Why the frick does James look 50, wasn't he 31 in the original?
Losing Re-Mary was really hard on him
They said it's a stylistic choice because the people that played the original back then are also older now.
Frick poles the ghetto Black folk of israeliterope
Bluepoint should had make this remake not bloober shit..
how can the head of the studio not know before hand what they were putting out to the public in a big trailer at state of play?
are they just clueless? incompetent?
It's explained pretty clearly, Konami acts as the publisher and is entirely in control of the marketing, Bloober didn't make the trailer. Konami obviously has full access to their work, they just used whatever material they wanted and made the trailer. Konami being Konami it wouldn't be out of character for them to not even share the trailer with the studio beforehand. Konami's incompetence is legendary at this point.
>Thing is explained clearly immediately
>Silent Hill 2 fans genuinely don't comprehend, has to be explained over and over
........That's why I needed you..... Needed somebody to punish me for my sins......
Still bothered by the Nurse vaunting over a wall to attack James. They don’t get it.
What do you mean? It's just like James and Heather in DBD.
