Konami why you couldn’t get a top tier dev for this iconic game, is beyond my comprehension.

 

[HeWhoWalks]

Pretty sure most of us are talking about the general control scheme when saying the original SHs were like the original REs, and those saying the SH 2 remake looks like the new REs (due to being fully third person now). The differing elements of the two series weren’t really what most of us were even talking about.

He, like I, was responding to:

Silent Hill was Always a ripoff of Resident Evil

 

[Elios83]

Game looks more than fine to me. Atmosphere and graphics are fantastic actually. Combats seem serviceable to a higher degree than the total junk they were in the original, they're obviously taking some hints from the RE remakes.
Some people have been full of prejudices because of Bloober team since the beginning but it's kinda stupid.

 

[lh032]

day 1.

but that female look like a roblox character, they SH2 has collaboration with roblox?

 

[Doom85]

He, like I, was responding to:

And? There’s nothing in that post indicating they weren’t talking about gameplay specifically.

 

[HeWhoWalks]

You've missed the point. Let's just move on.

 

[diffusionx]

They cant even say it's accidental or a coincidence

 

[FUBARx89]

The animation when he uses a melee weapon to hit them on the ground, wow. Hahahahha

Absolutely 0 force behind it. It looks ridiculous.

Needs to be earth shattering. Like when you stomp on a Necromorph in Dead Space 2, now that's got some force behind them stomps. This looks like you do to a pet. Pat em on the nose and go "boop".

 

[Synless]

wtf is this shit?

 

[docchicken]

James still looks like shit.

I mean, I'll probably still get it... but it won't come close to the original.

Him looking like shit is actually faithful to the og ps2 version imo.

It's just not a welcome "addition" compared to the trailer we already saw, like, what?

 

[Hohenheim]

Lets just hope it has a performance mode. The Medium didn't run that well either so that part is a bit concerning. Gameplay, visuals and game direction all look fine.

I'll play it on my PC, but for everyone playing on console I sure hope it have a mode that performs better than what we saw in that gameplay preview.

I‘ve only played Blair Witch from them, but I enjoyed it. Like, what did they do wrong, oh there’s a few enemies, well yeah I wasn’t expecting a game with zero threats. As long as the witch herself is never shown, I’m good and feel it doesn’t disrespect the original film, even the 2016 film didn’t as contrary to what some assume the creature that is briefly seen a few times is a victim of the witch and not the witch herself.

I guess some feel it’s only respectful to the original film if you don’t see any visible threat, but for a different medium like a video game, I’m flexible about that. And the part where you go deep below the earth and are blindin the dark and keep hearing this creepy voice, that shit freaked me out.

 

[WorldHero]

Combat and sound appears to have improved since the last trailer. Cautious excitement with this one.

 

[Shakka43]

I'll play it on my PC, but for everyone playing on console I sure hope it have a mode that performs better than what we saw in that gameplay preview.

I will probably play it on PC too but will have to see how performance is gonna be there too, sometimes stuttering are a even bigger problem on PC.

 

[adamsapple]

SoP trailer: F
Transmission gameplay: C

They've taken extreme inspiration from the recent REmakes, right down to the shrinking aiming reticle when aiming for a second or two. The "X" prompt to pick up the nutrition drink near the beginning looked like they just copy pasted the X prompt from RE7/Village.

 

[peronmls]

Fuck's sake, what happened here? The game looked so damn good in the announcement trailer.

A cliche. That's modern women with trauma. They eat Little Debbie's when stressed.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Ugly characters(uggo Angela and a prettier James, little blonde girl is probably the only decent design), combat is unimpactful, breaking the car window was lol, the town is very visible as opposed to the game obscuring everything in fog, indoor section are too well lit up when it used to be very dark and foreboding.

This is just awful. Not feeling this at all.

 

[Thief1987]

the town is very visible as opposed to the game obscuring everything in fog

That part was just a technical limitation, they don't need to copy it.

 

[Warablo]

I thought the gameplay looked okay? No way they capture the atmosphere and music of the original though. No idea how good it fits in todays gaming climate.

 

[DavidGzz]

It's not the graphics that look bad they look great it's the way characters look and the combat animations. Oh well. Gonna play it for sure.

 

[Neff]

Here's your Maria bro

 

[Oddvintagechap]

Those fat fucking cheeks

Luckily I'm not a little bitch baby about character models

you sure? you didn’t spend the last few years jerking off to her only to see this?

 

[Oddvintagechap]

This gen I got great games, this purely fault on Konami for giving SH IP to western devs YET AGAIN.......as if that worked out great last time.

Konami has zero respect to Silent Hill IP....ZERO!

Capcom is the only capable japanese gaming company. Only one that entered upgraded their windows xp computers.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

NOM NOM NOM

 

[Danjin44]

Capcom is the only capable japanese gaming company.

 

[consoul]

Today's SH2 footage really drove home how good Capcom are, and how good Konami were 20+ years ago.

I'm keen to see the movie. Gans calling out just the first four games was based af.

 

[Pasta la Vista]

I swear, they should have just remade the first Silent Hill instead, see how that would do, then consider doing 2.

 

[j0hnnix]

What the fuck have they done to Angela !!!!

My only prejudice is toward the stupid studio name. Reminds me of farting in the bathtub.

 

[ZoukGalaxy]

What the fuck have they done to Angela !!!!

Angela is now non binary

️ Woke remake It's a joke, calm down people

Be glad she haven't blue hair... for now

 

[//DEVIL//]

What the fuck have they done to Angela !!!!

Western devs ? She must be fat and ugly . Wouldn’t be surprised if she is LGPTQABCDEF+ now too

Preorder bonus blue hair dlc bonus

 

[SaintALia]

Looks okay, environment detail and design looks on point.

Animation looks janky and bad though, which is a bit funny,, seeing as the cinematics sprinkled between look so much better than the in game animation.

Also, this trailer focused so much on walking about, cinematics and combat, what about the puzzle solving? I was looking forward to seeing some new puzzles or how they're gonna make some new twists on the old puzzles.

My standards are pretty low at this point though. After what happened to the remaster and not liking any of the Western SH games apart from that one Wii/PS2 game, I was expecting worse. Need to see those puzzles though.

 

[Fake]

NOM NOM NOM

Jesus lmao

 

[FinalBossWithTheMostPower]

I went in having low expectations for this.

Color me impressed.

Day 1.

Looks like a grand survival horror experience.

 

[Musilla]

 

[Little Chicken]

What the fuck have they done to Angela !!!!

They/Them has been through the Sweet Baby machine

 

[Lokaum D+]

.

well, its a "scary" game, kudos to the devs for making such a scary lady, the sexy nurses aren't that scary.

 

[demonstr8]

They ruined the characters. Oh well I didn't care for a remake anyway I guess...

 

[What A Shame...]

The graphics are less of an issue for me. It's the over-the-shoulder cam that does it.

Every horror game is trying to be RE and it's not doing them any favours.

 

[Musilla]

 

[The_hunter]

What the fuck have they done to Angela !!!!

Thicc eyebrows

 

[NeverYouMind]

It will probably be better than the original gameplay-wise. The only issues I have with it are nitpicks like girth of Angela's cheeks not matching body mass, James' hair looking like a cheap wig, and the shotgun not decapitating after 1 meter head shot. I can mod that out or find someone that will.

P.S. Really looking forward to the movie as well. The reverence to source material of director and crew behind the scenes is endearing.

P.S.S. I forgot Laura called James fartface in the original...

 

[Mr Moose]

What the fuck have they done to Angela !!!!

She ate the fog.

 

[NeverYouMind]

She ate the fog.

The lack of a distinct jawline really makes her cheeks look out of place.

 

[What A Shame...]

Looks fine graphically.

The atmosphere is missing something though. It doesn't look eerie. At all.

 

[Itchy Tickles]

Yeah, Angela looks chubbier, but she also looks way closer to her age than the original game did. James looks different but nothing offensive, same as Maria and Laura. So far, the only issue that made me apprehensive was the frame rate in the Konami stream. Hopefully with about 5 months left before release they can (and whatever time passed from making that trailer) they can optimize / polish it. I'm glad it is day one on PC too, might help gloss over the frame rate to a certain point, but still needs work. Looking forward to October.

 

[Oddvintagechap]

yeah you proved my point. Even FromSoftware agrees.

 

[Danjin44]

yeah you proved my point. Even FromSoftware agrees.

All them made fantastic game, I like Capcom a lot but they are not the only capable Japanese devs out there.

 

[Bernardougf]

Western devs really like this square jaw large face woman ...

 

[March Climber]

The atmosphere is missing something though. It doesn't look eerie. At all.

Those gifs are missing the music. The music enhances the tension.
