Well… it looks interesting I guess. Is the daughter supposed to look completely emotionless all the time?

I'm also concerned about a lot of the scares we saw in the trailer. A lot of the slow approach and then sudden rushing of monsters- these are probably things directly adapted from the movie - things that were put in the movie for shock value but in a game the pattern becomes noticeable very quickly and goes stale even faster.

I suppose if the game is either very short or there is a huge amount more variety than what we are seeing in the trailer.

The plot is weirdly similar to the 2006 silent hill film. Woman goes looking for missing daughter in spooky town and spooky things happen. But I suppose everything is derivative of something these days.

Hope it's good though. Will be keeping an eye on this. Love new horror projects.
