    There's nothing to be hyped for. It's a collection of scenes from the original game, remade, with no gameplay footage and no meaningful news for half a year and with no official release window. It's like getting hyped over MGS3 pachinko cutscenes.

    silent hill has been a pretty dormant series (silent if you will). everything thats been made for it since team silent disbanded has been horrible, at least in comparison to the team silent games. silent hills seemed promising but it got cancelled almost 10 years ago. the remake looks pretty unfaithful to the original already from what we've seen, so fans dont care. normies dont really care that much either since, nothing good has been made for it in years.
    tl;dr nothing good has been made for it in years and the remake, the first game in a while, looks bad and unfaithhful to the original.

        >the VA was spotty
        and it contributed to the atmosphere. if you change it, it loses that feeling.
        for example, the HD collection and Maria's voice. they intentionally changed the tone of her voice throughout the original to build confusion and yada yada, but in the HD remake they recast her and all her lines are monotone.
        the same thing happened to Eddie, Angela, and James; and the same thing happened with SH3 when they changed the voice acting in that game.

        The game is a carbon copy of twin peaks, the way characters speak in silent hill is almost exactly the way they speak in the show, the mastering could be cleaned up a bit but otherwise the “spotty VA” is 100% intentional.
        I’m not arguing that “better,” voice acting would either improve or hinder the game, just saying that the design was intentional

      From what I've heard all their games besides Observer are bad, and that's only just okay at best. The medium is desperately trying to rip off Silent Hill as far as I know and I remember some gays on twitter complaining about the ending since apparently it devolves into "You can't fix trauma you should have a nice day instead". I don't know how accurate that is, but that's all I've ever heard about the medium.

      Yes and no. They outsourced that shit to a literal noname mobile app team, while BluePoint + Kojima Productions did the brilliant MGS HD Collection.

      Also there's been more shitty SH games than actually good ones made by the OG team at this point, and the OG team went through the same bullshit as Kojima Productions back in 2015.

      Last but not least, the DE-make simply looks and sounds like arse. The "we gotta modernize this for modern ppl!" mentality itself is a massive red flag, on top of the overall audio-visual directing signaling "we want Amerimutt movie goer audiences".

        Honestly it's not even their fault. Konami was like "btw we lost the original source code, here's some really buggy beta code we found on a floppy, enjoy fixing the original game's bugs". The team basically did the best they could, given the circumstances. Most of the stuff people criticize the SH HD Collection for (and rightly so tbf) is stuff like how SH3 has all-new voice acting, which is entirely because Konami refused to renew old contracts.

      It wasn't exactly "good" either. That's exactly the problem with modern AAA games in general, they're just "okay" at best. Gray and muddy.
      And SH2 demake's outsourced to a small slav group whose #1 goal in the project seems to be "upgrading" the gameplay to be yet another over-shoulder run & gun fest, this time with DaS-lite dodge oriented combat.

        The whole fricking game is about supernatural stuff happening. And even if that weren't the case, James is pretty explicitly presented as not being mentally well. A repressed memory from a psychological break is fairly believable.

    >What went wrong?
    Anything you need to understand about Bloober's storytelling abilities can be discerned by comparing the bathroom scenes.
    >Original opens with James already in the bathroom, silently staring into a mirror, his face obscured by shadow and expression unreadable. He touches himself, and only ponders whether Mary could be here before exiting to dryly exposit his situation and why he came here.
    >Remake opens with James barging into the bathroom while hyperventilating. He washes his hands, as if trying to get rid of some metaphorical stains on them, before staring into the mirror with a look of pure anguish. His voice is a little shaky and openly mournful.
    It loses all subtlety and mystery. It also shows a failing to understand James. He's difficult to read because, despite having genuine grief, he's the sort of person who internalizes that grief. He's become emotionally numb since Mary became ill and that shows in his tone of voice.
