      Yeah, a lot of the fans who have played the OG have been roasting the remake for its combat. I’m like “bro the combat in OG kinda sucked. If I had to make a list of my top 20 things I love about the OG, combat wouldn’t even make the list.”

    I’m personally very excited for this. i think too many silent hill fans nowadays are negative about the series, i understand why considering the mishandling of the most recent silent hill games, but it feels like some of them just *want* the series to fail. and a lot of people are complaining about things that make me even question if they played the original games at all.

    I'm excited. Everyone wants to complain but I'd rather this than anything else that was announced. Also the number 1 complain I see is about Angela not being "bangable" when she's a 19 yr old whose suffered ab*se from her father, she's not supposed to be sexy.

    i still 100% believe Silent Hill 2's remake will be awesome AF in fact i've believed that strongly in it since the teaser trailer and i know that playing it and replaying it will take up 90% of my october with the other 10% of this october being used for Life Is Strange Double Exposure and i'm sure i'll be constantly replaying both games for the rest of 2024 as well since those are the top 2 games i've looked forward to over all other releases this year (the most recent SH2 trailer basically confirmed for me that this remake will at some point be added to my list of games that i have put 1000 hours or more into) at the very least it will for sure replace Silent Hill 3 as my second favorite Silent Hill game but there is a decent chance it could even replace the original Silent Hill 2 as my top favorite Silent Hill game depending on how much i get lost enjoying the highly detailed Silent Hill 2 environments and their vibes (in other words if i end up enjoying the highly detailed environments and their vibes even more than i already know i'm going to then i'll have to change my top favorite to the remake) i really hope they do DLC for the remake where we can play as the other characters in SH2 and see the town as they see it (i bet eddie sees dog monsters and monsters with designs that represent bullies) but what i hope for even more is for the same team to do a Silent Hill 3 remake in the future

      You think devs don't tweak the models they scan? A single look at her model and the in-game version literally gives it away how they tweaked her features for the worst. Smaller lips, thicker brows... etc.
      A current gen game, especially a remake is suppose to blow people away with improvements across the board. Not spawn defensive lukewarm reactions or warranted criticism towards the quality and design. I mean, you know it's fcking bad deep down if you have to be defensive about it everytime the remake comes up.

    • @mayamoto6491

      Good point. Now that I read this, Konami probably got the footage for the showcase weeks or even months before it aired. Someone needed to cut it, edit it, make sure it plays correctly. Bloober most likely polished the game up since then.

    I am excited, can't wait to play it and will preorder the deluxe edition. Don't care that it's not one-to-one as long as the story is kept. When you really start thinking about it and do your research, the outfit change doesn't sound so weird and might even make sense. Some criticism is deserved (not all parts of the game seem to be equally polished), but a lot of it has been blown way out of proportion to the point that it is ungrounded and stems from misunderstanding the original game and story. Bloober has definitely nailed the atmosphere so far. Mad respect to them for deciding to do this, probably knowing how much they may infuriate some people and having to put up with all the hatred. I hope the remake succeeds, they succeed and we will get more remakes in the future. And if it does fail, well then life goes on and I will keep replaying the original for as long as I can.

    I'm feeling cautiously optimistic after that gameplay showcase a little while back. The alterations to Angela alone have me concerned about Bloober Team's sensibilities when it comes to preserving what made the original game such a powerful experience. Angela in the original game was pale and gaunt to the point of looking malnourished -- something that fit her character's disturbing backstory perfectly. This new Angela looks like a college student with a gland disorder who stepped off campus and took a day trip to Silent Hill. If they managed to get that so wrong, what else might they have gotten wrong? Hopefully nothing of consequence; but like I said, I'm concerned.

    I absolutely can’t stand Konami. Not to mention anything released by them lately is absolute trash. However, I’m gonna play the remake for one sole reason. The original games actual gameplay wasn’t good to begin with. What made the game great was the setting and the story itself, and if it’s one thing that the remakes are getting right, it’s the graphics. Konami’s studios are incapable of being original, which is why I’m kind of looking forward to SH2. They’re definitely not going to change the story. Whereas snake eater, not gonna touch that thing with a 50 yard pole. Snake eater was a great game all around. Just giving snake eater a facelift isn’t going to cut it. All SH2 needs is a facelift and modern voice acting.
