You know, maybe Silent Hill 4 wasn't THAT bad in hindsight

>game has a dodge and a single hard bossfight
>OMG IT'S JUST LIKE MY DARK SOULS
it's going to be fucking nothing like dark souls

This is an objective improvement over any hide in the closet nongame horror slop we've had for the past decade or more.

>>717016115 (OP)
Is a boss being challenging now enough to compare it to Dark Souls? Are challenging bosses not allowed to exist without being thinking it's like Dark Souls? The final boss of Silent Hill 3 on the hardest difficulty was notoriously difficulty, and most people who actually beat it only did it by cheesing it. I guess that makes Final Fantasy and Monster Hunter just like Dark Souls as well since they also have a few hard bosses in them that can take someone an hour.

So it's a fight anyone normal beats first time in 5 minutes?

If a journo has to struggle for 20 hours, then I would think it might be a hard boss fight that takes a couple of tries. But an hour for a journo? Nobody would even notice this.

But Wukong isn't a souslike.

are you fucking retarded? black myth and phantom blade is clearly soulsike.
from the footage we've seen this game has the same fucking dodge button sh2r had. just because a troglodyte in a video says it's soulslike doesn't make it, you retards forget that paid jurnos are beyond retarded and say shit like this to clickbait 12 year old indians
you mouthbreathing baboons can't comprehend the difference between a directional dodge which is not unique to fromslop

>this is peak gameplay according to rollsloppers

I really don't understand the appeal of souls likes, I tried one of them and it wasn't very good. the combat felt stiff and was honestly pretty boring, and I really didn't like the controls. I get that it's all personal preference or whatever, but the gameplay was honestly really bad. I truly don't understand how these games are popular.

>>717034742
Because the appeal of Dark Souls 1 was never it's combat, it was it's exploration.

>>717035921
I can guarantee all the retards in this thread screeching about how "they turned Silent Hill into a soulslike!" have never played a single SH game except 2 remake.

>>717035278
Nah, you don't get truly exploration pilled until you are deep into soulslikes. Your brain might notice the exploration but the immediate hook is the combat. Combat where spacing matters and enemies actually attack you rather than just being punching bags is the hallmark of a good soulslike.

The next evolution for soulslikes is a branch away from the sekiro style creating two distinct styles. 1. Sekiro style stand your ground and parry. This style lets you freely design enemies that gap close like a motherfucker with insane aoe attacks because the player has the ultimate defensive option. 2. As of yet unseen pure movement focused. No more dodge i frames or ridiculously low dodge i frames, like 3 frames level low. Compensated by movement techniques and simpler less flashy enemy attacks. A tough sell at this point for AAA because it would be a less flashy game and much harder to make and refine than the traditional formula at this point. It would be fucking amazing though. The ultimate positioning matters soulslike.

>>717017001
unironic pajeet

>>717036253
No combat is simply a means to an ends. Combat is DS1 is important only in such it serves the purpose of facilitating your adventure spirit. Without the exploration DS1 combat would be mediocre at best. Sekiro and Bloodborne are the only Fromsoft soulslikes that have good combat.

>>717036525
This is me with Lords of the Fallen. Never seen anyone praising it ever but I think it's excellent. Only played 2.0 so I'm sure part of it is that difference, but I also see people criticizing 2.0 specifically like saying it's too easy. And it is pretty easy, about Demon's Souls level, but that's not a problem.

The producer recommended that the Journo should play it on story mode, he didn't listen, he took an hour to beat the boss.
No one wants to fight a boss for an hour, he did that because he sucks. It's not a 1 hour long MMO raid boss.

>>717036794

>>717016875
It will be as similar to Dark Souls as Crash Bandicoot was.

>>717019360
Maybe 1 does in terms of level design and 3 does in terms of enemy pressure, but 2 is 100% carried by its presentation.

>>717036796
How brutal can fucking "normal" mode be?

So from what I understand a game having a dodge is all that's required for it to be called a Soulslike these days?

>>717016115 (OP)
This is literally just another SH Homocoming reskin. Fuck Konami.

>>717037260
We don't know yet, but probably not much. Maybe this boss happens after the player had more time to get used to mechanics that won't get introduced at all in this specific demo, so they recommend playing on easy so you can faceroll the boss because normally you'd be doing things you have no way of knowing you can do while playing this demo, who knows.
Point is, the dev called that he looked like someone who should play on easy and was right. If the game was supposed to be tough as nails and make you spend an hour on each boss, he wouldn't have told the journo to play on easy.

Literally a year after Book of Memories a new SH game got announced.
The reason the franchise was dead for a decade was purely Konami deciding they didn't want to make full games anymore. Pretty much all of their output in that time was asset flips, mobile tier titles, or remasters.

>>717040432
Yeah this. Same with all of their franchises which they're thankfully they're now bringing back. Now I just need a proper Castlevania that hopefully isn't another shitty 3rd person hack and slash.

you know a reviewer can be trusted when they say they like dark souls too. I trust Geoff Keighley because he features from software games so heavily, why else would he do that except that the games are so good!
me and my discord xisters love to talk about how good at dark souls we are! we are elite gaymers!

It's honestly impressive how out of touch with your own retardation you retards can be at times. The SH2 remake gets shat on more than even the RE remakes despite being undeniably better than all of them.

>>717042538
Nah, every SH2 thread is primarily people jerking off the remakes and insisting anyone who doesn't like them is all one guy.

>>717042602
Proving my point

>>717018873
I look at this and see this guy kill him and feel nothing. Modern Souls bosses are just a spectacle to trump the previous. FS should just make the player have DS2 speed and stamina and the bosses puzzle bullethells.

Fuck what he said. Give me a demo.

how do bad mechanics and the worst combat system ever created make a game better?

look at the fucking dodge she does what is this anime shit

THIS LOOKS SO FUCKING BAD WHY THE FUCK WOULD THEY MAKE A DARK SOULS SILENT HILL HOW RETARDED CAN YOU BE AS A GAME DESIGNER

>>717037876
>unwanted pregnancies (maybe even pro-abortion, as ryukishi is a leftoid degenerate)

Probably why IGN and Polygon are praising it. Woke meta-commentaries ingrained late game, so people can't refund. No one should buy this.

If this game flops, woke Bloober Team will be afraid for their Silent Hill 1 remake.

Elden Ring’s most notorious move is most easily countered by running away so that’s just been a ds3 thing. There’s attacks you wanna be close and far from the boss for besides AOEs and stuff.
That rev is kinda playing like shit though but everyone else is downed so they’re just panicking since it’s almost dead.

exactly. hinako is the stunning and brave woke girl, who doesn't need no man and just wants to be a better version of a man herself. it's blatant

You may be shitposting, but this is the perfect philosophy to have when it comes to gaming, and the cure to the epidemic of retards being unable to enjoy what they play.

Alcohol, beer specifically, is for fags, so it checks out.

Remnant is a great game and I refuse to acknowledge people saying it's not, like it's a fact and not an opinion.
It's so good, they made a second one that's pretty much the first one but more.

Man, Pyramid Head was right. I guess you can't judge a psychological manifestation of a man's broken psyche by an eldritch location for his hobby. Even if that hobby is rape.

Is the latter not just Monster Hunter? Like you can spec into increased iframes, but it's not the default playstyle.

You will get a new Castlevania game inspired by the new Cuck of War games and the Netflix show, and you will fucking like it when Alucard is shown in a flashback having gay sex with the villain, where you must input a QTE to avoid being the first one to cum.

Imagine fucking trusting that a game written by this man is going to be good. This is literally, LITERALLY, the worst anime ever made. Not exaggerating.

Off the top of my head:

That's every fucking action game when played at a high level, retard.

You think people don't abuse the shit out of iFrames in Ninja Gaiden?

>>717040432
There's also the fact that the entire Silent Franchise at the time didn't even sell 10m units in 20 years and most of their sales came from the first 4 games. One Resident Evil game can easily sell 10m now. People say Silent HIll & Resident Evil compete with each other but the sales gap would say otherwise. Targeting new Silent Hill fans is actually a much smarter move for them since they weren't growing much will the old one. They got 2m with Silent Hill 2 remake. f might actually fumble a little but do just well enough on brand naming to get to 1m.

>>717046326
Looks like an extreme version of Homecoming but not being locked to very close combat.

The "Media Experience" was just called The Silent Hill Experience.

You know what, I take it back. Homecoming's dodgeroll zelda combat was actually less terrible than this, I'm kind of shocked. Congrats to Bloober for outperforming Double Helix at the fuckup olympics, I guess.

>>717016115 (OP)
I mean it's basic "dodge and hit at right time, but a little challenging" whenever the current era says something like that. Souls didn't fucking invent it but it's nothing to fret over either, especially when classic SH had very simplistic gameplay to begin with. Not like horror games never tried dodge or block functions before.

>>717016115 (OP)
>Game Journo gets filtered by a game so hard he starts calling it a Soulsike to cope

>>717041001
What caused it to fall apart, the first three where gold, and 4 while worse has it's own merits and is a decent game, everything after that is complete trash

>Not based in America
>Japanese mythology and influences
>Soulslike mechanics
So, what part of it aside from the name makes this a Silent Hill game?

>>717050738
sorry people are weirdly successfully forcing an outrage that timed defense mechanics are something souls invented and an insidious evil upon the games industry

and when you ask them what they should do instead they come up with literally nothing

>>717041001
The first 3 games have inspired so many zoomers and indies it's insane, they're fans only because they didn't grow up with and play the complete and utter dogshit that came after the original 3

>>717050738
>>717051185
Thats fairly disingenuous.
Soul slop can be many things.

From the Bonfirecheckpoint that restores your heals and the enemies on the map.

To the most basic thing, like I-frame dodge.
And at this point the later is in soo many games that it shouldnt be in.

See
>>717050042

Same way that Ubislop Openworld, doesnt just mean towers everywhere.
It's also about boring collectables and enemy bases spread all over and whatnot

>>717051478
Yeah, I wrote that post and feel the same way.
Genuinely, playing the games that came after the first three soured any idea of calling myself a fan of this series, especially when the meandering directionless titles far outnumbered what I would consider good, and all of them continually recycled what was unique or interesting from those good titles.
At the same time though, I can't take someone seriously if they consider themselves an SH fan while not having played at the very least all the main titles (so, 1-4, Origins, Homecoming, SM, Downpour). It's sort of like how you have to watch the Star Wars prequels or read the last third of Fist of the North Star. You can't even begin to understand what was good or significant until you see how badly it could all be messed up.

>>717051185
iframe dodges always existed, but they weren't nearly as utilized until souls games became popular
like, the N64 zeldas get brought up a lot in these discussions, but there was nowhere in the game you were expected to know about iframe rolls, and the iframes on rolls were even removed going into the gamecube era because they were so pointless

>>717022789
compared to what? DMC2? Lmao

>>717052124
>this

>>717051907
To rephrase my post
There is Soulslop, derived from Soulslike which is
>From the Bonfirecheckpoint that restores your heals and the enemies on the map.

And Rollslop
>To the most basic thing, like I-frame dodge.

Even fans of Dark Souls disliked the I-frames and asked for a proper dodge.
But lazy devs be lazy and now every game made by tards too incompetent to make a decent combat system, make Rollslop.

Therefor, SH2R and this shit are both Rollslop.

>>717016115 (OP)
lmao. dropped.

>>717052124
if you don't look at it as specifically an iframes dodge and more at just any mechanic that asks you to time a defensive maneuver they've been incredibly common in games for such a long time
>dodging in punch-out
>the counterattack mechanic in wind waker
>jumping in dmc
>timed blocks in mario RPG
>every parry or perfect dodge ever
>arguably even jumping in the average platformer
Timed defense is just a good mechanic used well. They're almost inherently engaging, and the critique of them always comes off as really shallow. "It looks silly," "there should be a dodge but it shouldn't be iframes" with no further explanation of how the game is more fun that way.

Silent Hill Furude bros I don't feel so good...

I haven't played any soulslikes except for Fromsoft games.

>>717016115 (OP)
I remember playing Cliff Barker's Jericho and taking an hour to beat one of the bosses because I was too stupid to figure out how to beat it. I supect this was the case considering it was a journalist who played it.

You can literally run through every single enemy in that game. There's zero gameplay.

Kek

>>717052831
you're right, but I think you're missing why people dislike soulslikes or "rollslop"
the thing with excessive iframes or souls-style rolls is that they lose the positioning/spacing aspect, which means challenges in the game simply become timing puzzles
a jump is partially a timed defense, but generally a game isn't going to allow you to simply jump into hazards to negate them (unless your game's protagonist is a blue hedgehog)

>>717027235
No.

>>717027073
t. zoomoid who never played the first Silent Hill

I knew this game was shit when they showed the combat for the first time, yeah fuck it. Guess I'm waiting for the 1 remake, what a shame.

>>717016115 (OP)
STOP WITH THE HEAVY HITSTOP ON EVERY FUCKING HIT
Who gives a shit about soulslop this is the shit killing video games.

>>717054196
You're not wrong, but Elden Ring for example still has bosses that demand you use some positioning awareness on top of rollslopping- Borealis of the Freezing Fog is the most memorable example to me where you need to keep yourself in front of their head to be safe. But that boss, as a consequence, also has more downtime if you're a melee build where you need to sit and wait for something to counterattack. People who are good at elden ring will also typically do things like enter a boss' deadzone for a free hit while they do the attack, rather than roll through it.
Ultimately the way I feel about it is that reaction checks are almost always a good component to make combat more fun. They don't need to be what the entire game is centered around ala Sekiro, but if the combat is JUST knowledge checks, stay at this position at the right time and do this thing with generous timing for a punish, I typically don't find that nearly as fun unless there's some creative flair to it like an immersive sim or something.

>>717037876
No idea why tendiejeets and E33 negros are this terrified about Silent Hill f, the game looks cool and will probably have great writing, but it's not a guaranteed hit.

>>717041001
Extremely based and correct.

>>717054557
btw I'm not saying every game in history NEEDS reaction checks, like you could go for classic survival horror where it's about feeling weak and defensesless when an enemy closes in, I get that- but I feel as though it's not something you can just mindlessly cut out. You need good resource management or something to replace it.

>>717023426
You can start by looking at the threads that had people shitting on it but you're gay so you won't do that.

>>717051947
Silent Hill isn't a name or a brand, it's the talented people who made it. I don't have to play something to know it's a cash grab skinsuit. I am a fan. I've only played 1-4. The actual Silent Hill games. The release order is also the quality ranking, even though I prefer 3 to 2.

>>717016310
I'm surprised we haven't gotten a soulsslop FF game.
