Can we just skip the other entries and get a remake for the superior title already?

I like the concept of a spooky apartment you can’t escape, but the actual areas you explore after entering the bathroom glory hole aren’t very scary or interesting to explore.

I'm not really much for horror games because I'm a huge pussy and don't like being scared but I still give the spooky games a try here and there. 2 gave me a crawling fear of static. Like if I just hear static or white noise for too long it gives me the creeps.Got so bad once that I fled the house and went to a friend's until I felt better.

SH4 made me shut my closet door every time. Never had a problem with it until there was a closet in game with a crying ghost boy in it. Haven't been able to leave a closet open since. I never even finished 4. Once your own apartment starts to get haunted so now you have NO safe places it stressed me out too much. The apartment was my little oasis. Once they took that away I had to stop.

You're kinda right.

They were definitely trying to do something, but half the ideas didn't land, then they said fuck it and released the same game twice on one disc.

It's shitty so a remake wouldn't sell well. Which is a shame because of the original team silent games it's by far the one that needs a remake the most. The core ideas behind the game are very good and it's interesting that it's like an inverse of SH2's take on silent hill, with the world and enemies being heavily shaped around a character's psyche though not the protagonist's this time.
I wish remakes were done out of genuine belief that a game needs to be reworked rather than just "this game was good. if we make it again on modern consoles it will sell well!".

People give it too much shit for reutilizing areas. 3 did the same shit and it was fine. They just needed a new coat of paint on the retread.

>>712785880
If a remake could make huge changes to make the rest of the game good that would be pretty neat

>>712785503 (OP)
lol no. Despite the choice to start with 2 they went with 1 afterwards so you bet if that does fine it's 3 next. But hey at least if 3 does fine too it pretty much locks in a 4 remake ages from now if whoever reads this is still alive.

>>712785503 (OP)
This is actually one of those games that would truly benefit from a remake. Its not bad, I liked it a ton. It did have its issues though according to most SH4 enjoyers even. These issues could be fixed with some of its better elements even more properly fleshed out.

this is why I prefer believing the rumor that The Room was supposed to be a different horror game that Konami made them slap Silent Hill on to boost the sales and pretend 1-3 are all that count as original silent hill and everything after can be ignored.

>>712787706
Not really. Konami suits seem to be effectively ignoring SH4 with past treatment, not even bothering to release the GOG version with basic broken bug patches incorporated. Like half the hauntings missing.

That and these remakes sales tend to fall off with each cycle. Two sold alright, one will sell meh, three will be a failure and that will be that

To be honest the room is better than 3. I mean they're both rather shit compared to the first two games but the room at least has good moments and an intriguing story. I can recall like 3 rooms vividly from 3, the game is so unremarkable. and the story is just the same fucking thing on repeat. nothing meaningful is learned about the cult, alessa, heather, silent hill as a whole. it's just the same handful of lines about birthing god and le revenge repeated endlessly through different coats of paint.

>>712788254
GOG SH4 is fucking fixed though. The issue was the original PC release itself was scuffed, but they fixed it recently (not with any Konami input though).

>>712787651
They didn't "re-utilize" anything, they literally made you do the game again

>>712787651
It's more that the second visit is annoying as fuck between the ghosts, Eileen, apartment hauntings, limited healing and inventory, and that fucking nigger randomly showing up to shoot you off screen. It was a miserable experience but in a way it did an excellent job at achieving its goal as a horror game, it makes you feel dread.

>>712785503 (OP)
Downpour?

Uhh, where the fuck is Eileen shaving?

>>712788851
For me it's the sword. I just hate every game with enemies you can't kill. I liked everything but that.

>>712788254
You sir, clearly need to go play some Pachinko.

>>712785503 (OP)
A remake of SH4 would need to refine the experimentalaspects, and the second half of the game, should be something new instead of backtracking.
Those two things would be enough to guarantee a successful remake.

>>712788389
Only after years of the re release and only thing it does is incorporate pre made fan patches. The original release was a straight up fugly pc port from back in the day that cost them zero bucks to pull off the shelf

>>712787965
Konami slaps SH brand to "the room" and calls it a day
FFW to 2025,
Konami slaps SH brand to "SH f" and calls it a day

>>712789829
FFW to 2025 and game companies slap [series] onto a UE5 3rd person template and call it a remake or new entry

>>712790238
that too....urg

>>712786158
I can not even imagine being this weak.

>>712791109
Yeah. Shit sucks. Being a coward is dildoes. I can't even stand in front of the car tire when im inflating it. Have to stand off to the side because WHAT IF IT EXPODES AND I DIE. Its a hassle.

>>712789829
I'm still holding out foolish hope that townfall will be a more true Silent Hill game than F but my soul is prepayto be disappointed

>>712792015
>WHAT IF IT EXPODES AND I DIE
No you see, that i fully understand because it's a real danger in real life.

>>712789828
ontop of this, its based on the inferior xbox version (much like the SH2 pc port) and has tons of missing effects as a result. Even has lower quality textures/models in some areas than the xbox version for some reason

>>712785503 (OP)
Someone make an edit where the face is the basedjack

>>712789829
Konami’s whole strategy now is like throwing a dirty sock in a box labeled “Silent Hill” and hoping nostalgia will sell it. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if SH: Dishwasher Simulator drops and they market it as “The Most Psychological Entry Yet.”
