Can you elaborate what real sh game actually means?

Well golly garsh, it must a title released between 99 and 04, be developed by Team Silent, and take place in Silent Hill! Nevermind that the same mindset is the reason we get nothing but remakes of PS1 and 2 games.

I played it and finished it and saw all of its endings and posted my thoughts on the OT a month? ago. One of my biggest purchase regrets. I didnt force anyone to not buy it nor did i read any articles or grifting trash.

So basically you want the ip to fade away?

SH2 Remake is my favorite Silent Hill game and I've been buying them since Day of SH1, so they certainly did something right in my book. Then again I do believe it was a shotgun approach to see what sticks, they got Bloober cheap and Bloober just happened to go fucking balls to the wall above and beyond.

I've been unable to pull the trigger on SHf despite being excited for it after seeing the impressions in the OT and more gameplay footage. Will get it when a sale hits. I don't really care if it's REAL SH or whatever though, it's more the impressions regarding combat and level design that turned me off.

I'm extremely excited for SH1 Remake and then, hopefully, they'll be handed the keys to their own new SH game.

Loved Silent Hill 2 Remake and really disliked f for a number of reasons.
Having basically zero connection to Silent Hill, a terribly weak and boring story, weak and off putting characters and dialogue, a soundtrack that was a bunch of nothing.
A lot of the areas felt like tight 1 way corridors (outside of the puzzle rooms) with exploration being pointless, especially with limited inventory space, even with the bags. The puzzles themselves were pretty brain dead, didn't fit the world or story, and were honestly just extremely tedious. Combat was serviceable but didn't feel good.
There was also a point in the story when things just flipped on its head for some unknown reason.

I also hated Silent Hill 3, not because it's got a girl protagonist, but the enemy and most of the level design really didn't hit with me at all, actually bored the hell out of me. Seeing those bland grey corridors and walking anus dinosaurs still make me sleepy.

Curious what type of game Townfall will be and hope to get some new info on it soon too.

Ill give it to them, they've hit it out of the park, I have my gripes with both games and how theyve essentially watered down the actual scary element of the franchises, but those games are still successes.

Out of the 3 announcements, townfall was the one I actually had faith in, no code are great at providing an uneasy atmosphere.

Please be good is all I hope.

Edit: also are they pretending that online movie game that bombed hard doesnt exist now

Yes.

I hate Silent Hill.

Thanks for playing.

Err I am not sure I am a fan of this new approach. It comes off as the series being treated as some kind of portfolio to be outsourced to different bidders as opposed to reviving it under one unified vision.

Glad the series is getting new followers with the remake of the second game and F tho.
