I'm liking the cover art.

This gorgeous art too but if this was cover art people would get wrong impression.

 

[Badlucktroll]

the story should be interesting….. i mean people grow weird flowers and their faces fall off

 

[Liopleurodon]

I wonder if the Flower Head girl on the cover is Hinako in the later part of the game.

It would be nice to play as such character.

these "weird" flowers are spider lilys. They are very common in japan.

 

[Nocty]

perhaps a stupid question but, is this set in Silent Hill ? I'm assuming it isn't (dont want to watch the trailer for spoilers)

no it takes place in Ebisugaoka

 

[ThatOneGrunt]

The only other Silent Hill game I ever played was Shattered Memory on the Wii. And I loved it. This looks incredible. Very interested in playing it.

The second picture is the cover art used for the European physical version.

Dont get me wrong its gorgeous art but to me the first cover shows better sense of terror.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Dont get me wrong its gorgeous art but to me the first cover shows better sense of terror more.

Yeah, I like the NA cover art more than the EU one. Now I wonder what the Japanese cover art looks like.

 

[Grildon Tundy]

What do we know about the gameplay and how it fits into the Silent Hill series? Is it a full-blooded sequel? Said another way, if Silent Hill had kept the numbered sequel convention, would this be Silent Hill 8 (or whatever it'd be)?

 

[Memati187]

This would be 5, if numbered, but that's just a guess. I wouldn't call it a sequel if and that is a big IF its connected, it's more a prequel.

I pick this

I think it's just a spiritual sequel. Judging from the gameplay trailers it's basically Silent Hill without the guns. Although, it could change.

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

Probably a boomer memory moment but did they say what the "F" stands for yet?

 

[saintjules]

Possible cover art USA

I wonder if the flowers were somehow in reference to this

 

[Jesb]

I don't care for the character at all.

I like this one more, way too many generic 'character holding weapon' box arts already.

I agree for once west cover is actually fits the game much better.

 

[Clear]

I think it looks really good for what it is, but the truth is I want a modern-day successor to the original Silent Hill.

A big part of SH2's impact was that it was different and unique for its time, there was an aspect of unfamiliarity which really boosted the impact of it being so serious and psychologically focussed.

F due to its Japanese location, feels a little bit... ordinary? I mean high-school tales with twisted psychologies is hardly a novel theme in anime and manga.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

 

[Duchess]

Maybe it'll be a reservable cover? That would be good.

EDIT: the Amazon UK exclusive steel box is a thing of horror (in a good way)

 

[CuteFaceJay]

This looks fantastic.

This evokes terror. The posts saying "lady with flowers me scare" make no sense.

 

[Power Pro]

Possible cover art USA

Leave it to the US to always have the worse box art.

 

[archangelmorph]

This looks more like

Fatal Frame x Annihilation

The only Silent Hill references here are the deformed lady baddies and the pipe as a weapon.

 

[Danjin44]

I usually say US boxes are worse but in this case I actually like US box much more.

A lot of the game appears to have Japanese cultural references that won't translate and textures/signage that I'm afraid wont be localized. Hope I'm wrong, but I see this as a blocker for mainstream GOTY appeal.

 

[Rush2112]

For US we always end up getting some purple deranged artist with gender issues doing our artwork. We dont have straight artists left they all gone.

So let me ask the most important question, no one asks. How much of her clothes can be ripped off, any details on that?

Well how much of this 13 year old's boobs would you like to see?

Probably not a Senran Kagura kind of game.
