I don't own the game, but ahm i don't see a problem with this mod. I read she's a minor, okay.
And the model she's based on looks good anyways.
In the end i still don't see the problem when somebody wants to mod this game for a different appearance. It's just an option you have on PC, no?

As long as it's not like a Resident Evil mod then I don't think it's a big issue. A little weird, but not enough to ban it. I honestly had to look about 5 times to see the difference.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Honestly I don't see the big difference and the OG model already looks very okay. I'm alergic to some of the female models from western games (and I had issues with Maria and Angela from SH2R), but I don't see the need to change this one.

Besides there are probably nude mods already, especially since

Spoiler

Hinako is gradually losing parts of her clothing as we're progressing in the game

This is how the actress looks like.

Yea but she looks her age(27).
If that's what the mod is trying to "fix", welp...

Yes, TheGamer and reddit are fucking retarded.

Japan seriously has the most beautiful women in the world. No one can convince me otherwise.

This chick looks like she's working the overnight shift at the local cafeteria. I dunno man, they seem obsessed with the puffy eyes thing and I personally find that really weird.

It's clear they uglied her up a little. Probably also due to the lack of makeup which schoolgirls didn't wear back then.

The thing that they don't understand though is that this game might have just as big of a female audience as a male one in Japan, and that Japanese women would probably be more likely to download such a mod.

Any attempt to make someone more attractive, regardless age, will always trigger retards.

 

[balls of snow]

The fact that she does not fit in (though she is popular with the boys) and is athletic (in a period where girls are supposed to be demure) is the whole point of the game is lost on these ince..unlovable sack of shits. Also, the model is cute.

 

[Gripsx]

they bought the game, couldnt care less what they do with it

 

[crackajack]

which side is supposed to be the original? because I can't tell.
As stupid as the nose job a colleague of mine had. Could not tell that she looks different one bit afterwards. Great waste of money and time it was, plus some health risk, and probably some pain too, but whatever, grown ups and their "mature" choices.

I own the fucking game...

I own many games on steam, doesn't mean I've played them all.

People are criticizing SIlent hill F mod that makes the main character Hinako more pretty,

The "More Kawaii Hinako"is one of the most popular on Nexus Mod, with over 4,700 downloads. According to the mod's description, its goal is to "adjust the model to achieve better facial symmetry, soften the jawline, and slightly shorten the chin," which has generated strong negative reactions on social media.

One player pinned the blame on Hinako's "modelling optimisation" (a roundabout way of saying the 14-year-old isn't attractive enough) on "Western market censorship", while others went as far as to say these tweaks "saved the game" because her "face is certainly prettier". Some, however, argue that it hasn't gone far enough, calling on the creator to "refine her nose a bit more" and even "make the jaw a bit smaller".

Still ugly lmao

 

[captainnapalm]

I like the design of the main character. Something kind of beautiful about her - but also slightly off. It works for a horror game. And the level of detail on the character is insane. Really does look like a real person in a kind of creepy way.

"Sparks controversy" = some Reddit retard is upset

Once again we reached evel of retardation no man thought existed

One thing is for sure, in the kingdom of victims, the most obnoxious complainers are kings.

I am seeing a lot of comments and videos on this topic still, claiming that Hinako is 13-15 years, so i thought i would clarify a little bit.

This is an image from the german wikipedia article of the Japanese school system.
According to this, since 1947 until nowadays, middle school ends with 15 years of age.
Now we know from the games dialogues of the school section that Hinako does not attend middle school anymore, in fact it seems like she hasn't for a while.
Hence we can conclude that she is at minimum 15 years old, but likely older. Putting her anywhere between 15 and 18 if she still attends high school, or even up to 22 if she attends any other school type.

Now, considering ingame information, in the real world she was in her early 20s when she was supposed to be married.
We can assume that the actual gameplay happens in a sort of reflection of her past, when she was younger, still attending school. I personally assume the events depict her late school times, when she was introduced to the idea of being married off.
I therefore presume she is anywhere in her late teens.
Since the age of consent was and is different in Japan, and many other countries, Americans should not get their periods just because someone is looking at this fictional character as a woman.

Actress cuter than in-game IMHO.

You can marry a 13-15 year old in most parts of America lmao.

This not entirely true - you gotta have court and parental consent; plus I think the lowest age is 15.

Still gross - but I didn't see anything about 13 year olds being allowed to marry in my research.
