Silent Hill f: Hands-on preview thread

Is this even a horror game?
Looks like Chinese developed trash.

Looks great, top notch atmosphere and psychological horror which is what these games are about.
I'm waiting to preorder just to be on the safe side until reviews hit but I think this will be great.
 
Gotta say looks very mid though. When I saw this kitchen footage it reminded me that RE7 kitchen looks 2 generations ahead and that game came out 8 years ago. The assets and textures on objects is same level or worse than the Yakuza games.
 
I'm just not feeling it. The enemy design doesn't do much for me, and the whole Japanese setting kind of takes me out of the Silent Hill vibe.

Realistically why havent they made it just a new IP? Its like Rockstar that have GTA, Bully and Manhunt...different games but the UI and placement and control scheme are literally the same, just different setting. I dont think anyone would complain that its again a protagonist hitting monsters with pipes and that somehow automatically means on SH can do that. Game looks so different.
 
Monster designs are lame across the board.

Creepy female dolls with long black hair look like an overused japanese trope at this point, the giant pink blob with a giant sword looks to have been put in the game by mistake, the completely generic grey creature is completely generic and the woman boss battle is straight out of Dark Souls.

I also like how they all make some corny battle cry before fighting you, that's Silent Hill alright
 
Not watching previews as I wanna go in as blind as possible, only saw already on twitter people bitching about stamina meter. Jesus, people can never be satisfied. I hope this is same case as people who had no faith in bloober being proven wrong
 
The way i see it is this is a game like silent hill 4 the room which also changed the vibe and location
Silent hill 4 had it's flaws indeed. Barely a Silent Hill game at all if you ask me, but a damn fine horror game, one of the best of that era I will fight anyone to the death who says otherwise

The floating ghosts, the way the 'safe' room gradually becomes a nightmare in itself was really well done. I replay it once in a while, definitely has a unique vibe. I hope this new game isn't afraid to step away from the beaten path we know because otaku nerds wont like it.
 
Wrong.

I'm just saying that if you told me this was a chinese reboot of whatever survival horror game i would have believed it.
Ehy immediately chinese? Because game is set in asia?
Why wouldnt konami be able to have a different spin on their franchise with one of best horror mistery writers on market?
Its been long established silent hill setting is not set to one place, but its phenomenon based on mysticsms in various srttings through games. It happening in asia decades ago wouldnt be far fetched.

Because here and there looks generic like those souls games, namely the enemies.
I'm ok with Konami doing this game, i don't even know this will be good or not. I'm just not hyped.

Wait until we tell them Resident Evil is another Souls game but you use guns.

Every game Souls game because Soulslike is every genre now.

You're not understanding.

I didn't said the game is soulslike. I said like in most soulslike chinese games that keep coming out, some stuff look a bit generic, namely the monsters.
 
I've not seen many games that tackle doll like enemies with rigid painful snap to action movements as seen here. If any other games do this feel free to point them out. Although I think it's a bit premature to say the enemies are generic if you only see literally 2 of them with the rest being boss enemies.

The only other current games I can think of are those environmental creepy dolls in Fatal Frame and the Doll enemies in Alisa.
