*sigh*

I guess you could say that with these last few games, Silent Hill is having a Homecoming of sorts.

good. silent hill 2's gameplay was dogshit

>we are trying to make another Resident Evil 4 sudden shift in gameplay that only worked when souls-like wasn't yet popularised
Adding guns might had helped, but this going to be a boring melee slop like Callisto Protocol

>>717818748 (OP)
They don't want old people playing their games

maybe they should recreate SH4?

>>717818748 (OP)
>Dev is trying to stop another trooner hills 2 from happening
Based. Millennials and their consequences have been a disaster for the popculture

>>717818748 (OP)
good. sh2 is overrated as fuck when the original series already had better stories and themes in its run

>>717818748 (OP)
Something about how the enemies are designed and animated just makes them look really stupid and fake, like skibidi toilet monsters. Maybe that's what they were going for.

>To avoid recreating Silent Hill 2, let's make a Dark Souls clone.

>>717818748 (OP)
its actually a good thing you moron...that first dark age of western SH happened because they want to make SH2 over and over.
SH:F AT LEAST is doing something different

>>717820157
SH was a RE clone in the first place soo what?

>>717820157
The combat seems similar to sh2 remake except less boring

>>717818748 (OP)
SH3 had decently fun action gameplay, not sure why they didn't lean into this direction in their marketing.

>>717819769
>maybe they should recreate borderline shovelware
Why?

>>717818748 (OP)
>to avoid "recreating Silent Hill 2 over and over again".
He's right

>>717818748 (OP)
Japan has fallen

>>717818748 (OP)
Come on, why have hope for something that has been dead for so long? It died with 4, just let it go.

S-S-S-SAVAGE

>>717819484
Why though? Old people have disposable income.

>>717821694
Dante, Bayonetta and Ryu Hayabusa shaking in their boots, new character action masterpiece is out to get them

Zoomers don't play standalone games. They just stick to Fortnite and Roblox.

>>717818748 (OP)
Despite how much they will tell you otherwise, gamers as a demographic generally DO want the same thing over and over again. Most Silent Hill "fans" are actually just SH2 obsessives who disregard the rest of the series anyway.

>>717818748 (OP)
>avoid recreating Silent Hill 2 over and over again
This is actually very good to hear though. I may not like the combat focus but if they could somehow make something in the future that is good and isn't just more shameless westernized copies of SH2 then this is a good thing. That guy Tom Hulett absolutely fucked this franchise for decades thanks to that shit.

I think a good way to go about doing these games in the future in regards to combat is either just simply copy Dead Space's combat or copy Condemned. Both of these games would serve as the best possible template for a combat system that they could use. Since SH is more melee focused than RE it might be better to take it first person and emphasize melee combat against creepy weird looking monsters. Whatever combat system SHf has is absolute garbage.

>>717821694
i'm not bothered overall by it being more action focused, but what the fuck is with that hitstop

>uhm statistics show that we must make a bing bing wahoo silent hill game to increase profits
>no one cares about psychological horror anymore the new audience demands action and explosions
i hope all these faggots die

>>717818748 (OP)
This is a positive.

silent hill 2 is 2000s walking sim, sorry to tell you that. SH1&SH3 are gameplay focused. silent hill 2 is the most overrated boring game in its franchise.

>>717821694
what I hate the most is how the swing follows through smoothly instead of bouncing off the enemy, it's a fucking blunt object

>>717822753
Retard.

>Almost all of the enemies you encounter have to be fought, the main character is too slow to outrun then while some areas just close off until you defeat the enemies
>Like DMC's hand barrier
>Weapons have durability and have to be repaired with kits
What happen if all 3 of your weapons break and you are stuck in a forced encounter area then?

>>717824292
You have a shitty melee that never breaks

>devs' only previous work is RE:resistance
ohnonono Silent sisters....

>>717824173
Fuck off tendie shitter

>>717821694
>zero physics
Even Bloober Demake made sure to have hits "land" on the body with proper reaction from the monster

I think its ok to say they dont just want to make all the games the same as SH2. They should be encouraged to try and do different things.

>>717824292
???
I'm pretty sure they said that you can run from most encounters. It's almost encouraged since the enemies provide no EXP or resources for killing them. Your main goal is to get enough resources and health items to convert into faith at shrines to increase stats and get amulets with buffs. You'll fight the bosses in the other world where the weapons don't break there.

>>717825308
not what the previewers said

the f stands for FLOP

>>717821694
I dont mind the hitstop but why is it so long. It feels like a whole half a second too long

>>717821946

>Bloober remakes Silent Hill 2: "N.... NOOOOOOOOOOOO I DONT WANT REMAKE OF OLD GAME!!"
>Konami makes new Silent Hill that aims to seperate itself from the old game: "N... NOOOOOOO BRING BACK THE OLD GAME, MAKE THIS INTO SILENT HILL 2!!!!!"

>>717827348
Probably to cover up the fact that enemies don't react to your attacks.

>>717827410
It's almost like people want survival horror in their survival horror game, not rollslop or whack-a-mole.

>>717827471
People don't know what the fuck they want

>>717818748 (OP)
There is a kernel of good in there.
>avoid recreating Silent Hill 2 over and over again
This is the exact trap western SH developers have fallen into. Too bad they're talking about the gameplay, and not the story. Game will probably end with Hinako unrepressing the memory of her murdering her sister or some other bullshit.

>>717827390
sorry forgot to say that was a joke, I also hate the term character action I used it to make fun of this garbage looking game

>perfect parry enable MGR's zandatsu-like slow mo which allow you to attack enemy's weakspot with pinpoint accuracy
What's stopping people from just parryslop their way through the entire game with every encounters
