  • My reaction to the Sony State of Play and 2024 Silent Hill Transmission. No Townfall or Forte news, but on the upside we finally got a Silent Hill 2 Remake release date...!

    Until Dawn is being expanded upon, with new scenes, locations, and interactions! You could see a glimpse of one of those new scenes in the trailer, when Hannah and Beth carry Josh to the couch. The original game is one of my absolute favs, so I’m super stoked to experience it again with new content!
    As for the SH2 remake, there are some aspects that are a bit jarring to me (Angela’s redesign, the OTS perspective, the occasionally odd animations), but the gameplay reveal in the Transmission restored a bit of my faith. The visuals look amazing and the gameplay isn’t too bad. I’m eager to see how it pans out :)

      Angela looks really good in some shots and odd in others. There's inconsistency in how she's lit and animated and I hope that gets sorted out in the coming months. The knife scene shows how good she looks. Angela and Maria's designs are based on original concept art of the characters.

      I think people are being too harsh on the SH2 remake, tbh. Konami doesn't have the same budget as Capcom, so I don't expect it to be on the same level as Resident Evil. I expect it to be more on the level of the Alone In the Dark remake. As for the redesigns, as long as they don't look too different from the OG characters, I have no issue with it. James and Angela aren't supposed to look attractive. They're supposed to look like they're going through some kind of trauma.

If this new game is more like 3D version of the mobile game with new elements like collecting things and maybe fun platforming for gameplay, it might be interesting to try. But I agree with you; I’d rather it not step directly into that ‘Genshin’ lane. That’d take away from it for sure.

      Actually, it's the opposite. Christopher Ganz went off to say that the reason he turned The mom into the main character was because he thought Harry's character was unrealistically feminine by fainting all the time and caring so much about his adopted daughter as to go through hell like that to save her. I love the 1st movie but it is a crime that he rewrote one of the best father-daughter relationship fiction in media into a stereotype of mothers having an out of this world connection to their children cuz to his generation men can't have emotional intelligence and attachments too

      Nah you're right. I saw various elements in the game that look borrowed from other games; not that it's a bad thing but the final product definitely looked uninspired, even if it was competent.
      For example, the melee and dodge animations/combat system look straight ripped out of TLOU (the timing/rhythm of James' attack literally matches up to that of Joel swinging a pipe), and the dodge also had a very similar feel.
      James drawing on his map to update is similar to the Uncharted games where Nathan Drake would also write things in his journal after discovering an item or location.
      And it's got your standard OTS 3rd person camera which has become a norm of the AAA industry.
      None of these things are bad, and technically, they "modernise" the original game, but as you said, it just doesn't look very interesting or compelling.

      I dont think it was meant to feel innovative anyway... I mean, its the comeback of a franchise that is on the fridge for like a decade, and their first big return is a remake of their most iconic game. It is meant to be sold mostly by nostalgia and loyalty to the source material.
      This is one of my favorite games of all time, so im satisfied with mostly of what I saw. Let's just hope that their product is not just a marketing cash grab. It would be very disappointing if their best cards are these gameplay moments and the rest is just meh. The state of angela is mostly the reason that makes me worry about that possibility

      Perhaps because over the years, so many aspects of gameplay have been innovated, established, and reused. This leaves less room for originality and further innovation as time goes on. That won't change unless technology also evolves for newer ideas to sprout, making room for new ideas.
      Respectfully though, I found this comment to be a rather strange take. Of course this remake will appear less original, it's a remake. The whole point was to cover the same game with a different perspective, but remain the same (Set aside the execution of it so far, that's a different argument). While that could leave the impression of being uninspired, that's because the plot of Silent Hill 2 has already been known for a long time.

      @@jerichopasaoa I agree with a lot of what you write. But the problem with silent hill 2 is that it’s an interesting game that was a product of its time (in a good way). A lot of the game’s surreal/dreamlike vibe arose from Team Silent tackling hardware limitations and logistical issues (like difficulty in finding English actors for example).
      And of course, add to that the incredible story and concept that was ahead of its time (as far story in videogames go).
      I just didn’t get that same vibe from the remake material we’ve seen so far.
      You can refer to my previous comment, but I totally get people thinking the remake doesn’t feel “original”.
      I think people are thinking one thing and saying another; I would phrase my issue with the remake like so.
      The original game looked like it was inspired from works of artists like Dostoevsky, David Lynch, Francis Bacon etc. whereas the remake looks like it’s inspired by other, more popular video games. I came to this thought after feeling puzzled at why I felt so… indifferent towards the remake. And like I said, at the risk of sounding pretentious, that aforementioned “artistic vibe” isn’t there.
      But who knows!? It could be that the final product when viewed as a whole, does indeed capture that same vibe. On that note, I agree with the sentiment that while it’s okay to be either skeptical or optimistic, the best thing to do is just wait and see the final product.
      You know, ever since the remake got announced I was always fearful regardless of whatever studio got picked for the job, because I knew that simply going for photorealistic graphics, and adopting a “modern” control scheme wouldn’t be sufficient by itself to capture the charm of the original.
      But I digress, this is a very tricky topic to navigate where, if you take a step back and look at both sides of the fandom and what they’re saying, you can understand where they’re coming from.

    Haha I'm not sure if I'm misreading it but John I feel like you're being a little too nice to the remake! I feel like your original skepticism of Bloober team was well founded, and this is a very special game so it's ok for you to be hard on them.
    Personally I wish the combat was a bit more raw, like not as quick and immediate like it was in the trailer, but more impactful and human. I was hoping to see James have to wind up for some of his swings, kind of like in the original when he needed to draw his weapon before engaging. To me there was a bit of fearfulness when engaging with a monster because you knew you would be fighting a bit to set yourself up properly.
    Anyway I want the remake to be great as well so I hope the game delivers on what it is promising.

I was very impressed they did the whole trailer without really showing pyramid head xD And I quite like the expanded dialogue and new takes on scenes!
    I say this as someone who was hardcore inline with TRSHE and followed the whole SH HD collection debacle with great intensity.
    Also, psml at the new silent hill film. WHO LET GANS CONTINUE DOING THIS xD though it will definitely better than silent hill revelation which broke excited teenage me's heart in the cinema for being just so bad :'(

    O canal DETONANDO GEEK foi o único CZcamsr que apontou e listou com coerência todos os principais problemas no desenvolvimento desse jogo. Não é excesso de críticas, é apenas consciência do que está sendo realmente visto e inteligência pra não fingir ser um demente acéfalo que bate palma pra tudo, como um bonobo estúpido.
    Sua análise foi simplesmente racionalista, baseada em evidências e fatos, a ponto de ser científica mesmo.
    Enquanto tem ignorantes e alienados preocupados com a fisionomia, a cor e o peso da Ângela (a ponto de neuroticamente apelarem para teorias da conspiração sobre "agenda woke"), pouquíssimos mesmo têm sensibilidade e percepção suficientes e capacidade intelectual para notar e dar nome aos verdadeiros problemas nesse jogo.
    Eu chamo de OPACIDADE! Mas você de OCLUSÃO. Acredito que queremos dizer o mesmo: a imagem do ambiente tem uma opacidade, resolução e exposição menor que a do próprios personagens e ítens especiais interagíveis no jogo.
    Esa discrepância horrível gera um efeito de artificialidade e falsidade nos personagens e ítens e não torna o ambiente igualmente parte das sensações, emoções e sentimentos que a sua própria existência pela imagem deveria causar só de olharmos para ela.
    Outro ponto é a TEXTURA DE MASSINHA DE MODELAR presente em tudo. Algo que nem o Silent Hill 4 (o melhor em texturização pra mim) tinha.
    Não tem aspecto de realismo. Não tem naturalidade. A face dos personagens e qualquer coisa no cenário remete a jogis da Lego ou afins. É difícil se esforçar cognitivamente para fingir wue nossas afeições não estão olhando para um ambiente falso com altas pretensões de ser realista, mas por essa divergência entre teoria e prática, fracassa.
    E isso tudo não faz O NOSSO CÉREBRO 🧠 ser impactado e convencido sensoriamente, como sabemos que muitos jogos com essa temática e pretensão, conseguem gerar facilmente, apenas dando atenção aos detalhes. E nesse caso eu acredito que seja uma característica da Engine dessa empresa, pois todos os jogos dela são assim. Algo que só funciona bem em novos de aventura, e não em jogos de terror.
    O pior é que, apesar disso estar tão evidente e justificado pela nossa monotonia comparada às nossas incríveis emoções com os quatr jogos originais clássicos, ainda vai ter ignorante, alienado, cego, burro, sem sensibilidade e percepção, sem experiência, que vai olhar pra isso aí (um jogo de nível de PlayStation 3) e vai mesmo gritar histericamente como se tivesse tendo um ataque de pelancas e dizer "nossaaaaa que tudoooooo" e fingir que um console já na sua quinta versão e com propósito de evolução em resolução e gráficos justifica o seu lançamento juntamente com um JOGO DE FRANQUIA EXCLUSIVO DESSE NAIPE E RENOME mas que entrega mais do mesmo potencial de hardwares e software de duas versões de console atrás e, ainda pior, custando caríssimo como se valesse.
    Rindo pra nao chorar...😂😂😂
    No fundo disso, temos os velhos problemas do capitalismo: Konami tem terceirizando o trabalho e Bloober Team usando propaganda para vender falsas sensações. Assim Konami custeia menos e lucra mais. Muito mais. Pra mim, é vender gato por lebre; é propaganda enganosa mesmo, como todas maís ou menos são.

    I'm not hopeful for SH2 even though I wish I was.
    I'm fine with the Angela change, sexual abuse is traumatic and trauma changes people in many ways. That she's not a 90s pinup isn't really relevant. Maria's outfit change does bother me because she's supposed to be the bimbo-ish, hypersexed up, manifestation of what James' subconscious wishes Mary was instead of his sick rotting wife. She's supposed to be hyperbolic, toning her town doesn't serve any purpose as a monster in SH.
    But more than anything I'm worried for the writing, VA direction, storytelling. Those have always been Bloober Teams weak points. They make walking sims about bad dads (and husbands), it's no wonder they snatched this up thinking it'd be right up their alley.

    im very very excited about the game, but honestly im sad about james face and marias outfit! james still looks too miserable/depressed/movie character for me, but i think the original was a very generic man with a neutral expression you wouldn't think twice about if you were walking past him on the street. i think that is a big part of james' character.
    and marias outfit- which i think speaks for itself. i understand if they were afraid of copyright? issues? because that is literally Christina Aguilera's outfit, but they could've made their own version! there is a reason in james mind she was dressed like that, why she was everything she was, and a drastic change is just so weird to me.
    but the losers talking about angelas face can deal with it. she looks fine.
