This is why survival horror is a dead genre. Kinda sad, because i really like it.

It's not dead, we are getting new Silent Hill and new RE….we have good amount of survival horror.
People just need to understand just like horror movies, horror games are not meant to have mass appeal, not everybody likes to getting scared.

I think it will as long as they don't expect COD or Nintendo level sales.
This game is new IP and top of it survival horror….it just will not gonna have mass appeal but that doesn't mean survival horror is dead genre…..that's like saying SRPGs are dead genre because don't sale high numbers.
Edit: Also don't forget in NA the physical copy doesn't come until Sep 19th.

It just had to launch in October as a Halloween game. I do not understand why not? October is ninja gaiden and it will dominate lol.
Unfortunately survival horror fans are used to getting a good game and then studios go under.
Such is our calling.

Maybe they made it in a tight budget and all previous ones had less than 2K players peak.
Silksong really hurt this game

The Warden has some of the best cat-defining writing I've heard in any medium.

Estimated budget of the game was $27 million and Bloober confirmed the actual figure was well below that. It's not failing.

I hit a major bug after the choice at the end of the Steelworks. The Traveler says she's going back to the Terminal. The first two times, the level loaded in for a split second, and then disappeared, leaving only a blank expanse. Taking a few steps, I fell through the level and died.
The nearest autosave was unfortunately right BEFORE the end Steelworks boss fight. On the third attempt, I dropped all graphics settings to LOW and let the Steelworks end choice play out instead of picking the option I wanted. The bug didn't happen, but I'm kind of miffed because now I didn't get to make the choice to get the passive ability I wanted.

Very strange bug, I didn't have any game breaking issues during my playthrough. Don't think you can do anything about it, because you can't force the game to autosave.
Maybe try to wait a bit after the next attempt, so that the game will have more time to load the map and the textures.

Thanks. The game autosaved right after the time I didn't get the bug, and my nearest manual save was 30 minutes further back. If you recall that part of the game, there's a long stretch without a save room.
It stinks, but I'm moving on!

Usually these type of games get their success through word of mouth more than big budget marketing.

indeed, I think this will have a long tail once people get paid again and finish hollow knight etc

It's a wild year.
It actually does have silent hill f to worry about more than anything imo. If someone is looking to pick up one scare game this Halloween and SHf is the better game than it'll be only the hardcore genre heads to pick this up.
Just fought another boss. Came out with literally 1 bullet to my name. Cheeks tight the whole time.

Killed the first boss and finished the first dive, I don't want to sound elitist but as I suspected the reviewers who shat on the combat are just scrubs who can't git gud.
As long as you manage your resources well, choose what to craft carefully and use only well aimed, charged shots it's quite simple and rewarding.
My bet is that in their panic they did not charge their shots, blasted away all their ammunition and then got angry because the game doesn't provide the player all the resources in the world.
Poor Bloober got fucked hard by those few very low reviews that bring the overall score down a lot...
But they're not in the clear as well, the frame graph is a mess, the stutters with Hardware RT ON are ridiculous, after Silent Hill 2 they should've learned...

It doesn't matter the score, original Evil Within has 75 metic score but that didn't stop me from loving the game.

You could tell that salty bitch that gave it a harsh review because the combat was too hard was just getting his cheeks clapped over and over for trying to play the game like resident evil 4 or something. You have to be resourceful and methodical, every bullet counts as you can find yourself going for long periods of time with no ammo.

Finished the 2nd dive and onto the next area. SH2 not withstanding this Is bloopers best work by far. Such a huge improvement. Shame midsong is getting all the attention over this and Hell is Us
It's really not THAT hard. But I get it. Asking for a just a tad bit of critical thinking in a shooter is a bit much to ask.

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
It's irrelevant anyway, now if under performs on console..... that's a problem.
