Yes like Health potion or key item, since game was foggy, and items were scattered around hard to see, they made that mechanic so players could detect some item is there to be collected or interacted with
@@neoyakuthen you'd just speed run the game when it came out. I like that things are in different places not only that the first lying figure scene in the original is probably my least favorite part of the game I hate James reaction, I hate the shot, and I hate the way James doesn't conveniently hear it for like 30 or so seconds of it making a ton of noise
I'm soooo grateful James doesn't get a model change with the shotgun on his back or anything. Keeping James looking as unempowered and vulnerable as he starts out is a nice touch.
They deyassified Maria when she's supposed to be extra. Her outfit was so much better and makes sense. This one feels too reserved for her original personality.
@Greybell Her original made her look like a crack whore. This one is actually attractive and helps lean into the Maria ending cuz players will more likely want to protect her.
Yeah the hit detection seems much better and how the enemies react to hits and shooting. There's still something off about shooting with a pistol though
I am genuinely impressed by the acting and animation in the cut scenes. Subtle details up to the point of James slightly smacking his lips before asking Laura about her letter... Very well made. Officially my most anticipated game this year.
Only a little changes: * Design of Angela (expressions of her face, more sadness. * Design of Mary (more mysterious, her eyes must have a sadness expression mixed sexy). * Sound effect of nurses, the effect must be more human but shattered, like the original, like a woman shattering, not like a beast. The game looks great, amazing. Good job!
I know the team is reading this. I'm really happy you guys heard the feedback from the community since the last trailer and transmission. The game looks gorgeous, the animation is improving but still a work in progress. It's overall a little stiff and in need of more frames. The fight look visceral and much better than the original, encounters now seem to matter while the original could be avoidable or felt like a nuisance. Some character faces could be improved (Angela for instance). Meanwhile James (and Laura) facial animation is already incredible, if we can reach the same level with the other characters this game will be a blast. Please make sure the game runs smoothly on release. This is really important for a game success nowadays. I am sure you will be able to pull the first Silent Hill after this. Thank you!
Bloober Team does NOT care about you or their players. Just take a look at The Medium and Layers of Fear. I'm worried how they will handle Silent Hill 2's story considering their track record of AWFUL interpretations and stories regarding mental health as well as blatantly copying other products for their horror elements (Layers of Fear straight up copied P.T in several parts of the game).

I haven't played Layers of Fear yet, but it's pretty common in horror games and games in general to take inspiration from previous games. Do you think the original silent Hill is just a rip-off of the first resident evil? There's only so much you can do with the mechanics of a game, and personally, I appreciate when studios make games that take inspiration from other games I love. And P.T was never, and never will be a complete game; so any games like it that are good, I'm going to appreciate. Madison and Visage are also incredibly similar to P.T, do you have a problem with them as well? @@SMNBLMRDM
It's the same exact game, swing the bat in one direction, aim and shoot. Only difference is konomi picked clips and this is more of the game. The enemies look more polished, it looks no different in gameplay. If you look at the first enemy in this video he swings the bat to the thing on the floor and misses, but it still hurts the monster.....
Silent 2 Remake game deserves to be crowned as GAME OF THE YEAR in 2024. Reasons & causes: 1. Improved atmosphere & visuals, with the latest graphic technology, this game tells a more profound & impressive psychological horror atmosphere updating the creepy experience of the classic version Silent Hill 2. 2. Improved emotional narrative story about guilt & redemption of James Sunderland becomes stronger with improved cutscene dialogue presenting an impressive narrative experience. 3. Superior audio design, sound effects & suspenseful music are produced in high quality, increasing the fear & tension throughout the game. 4. Enhanced game with updated game mechanics to provide more responsive controls without sacrificing strategic elements that keep players feeling tense. 5. Improved characterization & detail. With the improvement of character technology in Silent Hill 2 Remake, it has much more detailed & deep expressions, which further strengthens the emotional connection with the players.
One can tell you guys at Bloober deeply care about Silent Hill and want to do right by the fans, of whom you are a part. The game still needs some polish, but you are getting there. Thank you.
This is looking phenomenal so far. Glad the QTE bull was removed and replaced with just an animation. The game is beautiful, combat is modern but still looks limited like the original, and the adjustments to the environments and sequences arent out of place.
Complaining about QTEs never made sense. Why? Because tapping buttons rapidly when grabbed by enemies is something that 95% of players do anyways. So, there isn't any difference- other than players mashing all of the buttons rather than the single one that is prompted in the QTE itself.
@@d88787 Honestly? Yeah, i thought about it. You're right. It's not needed if mashing the button still does the job without the prompt. The less UI on screen helps the visuals stand out more too.
@@LandofBrickForestsI think there would be a big difference, and I don’t like the QTE prompt either. If there isn’t, I don’t think a gamer would just mash buttons 💀 I assumed you’d have to wait it out of the grab. Having the QTE is just a cheap experience for a game like this honestly, so I’m glad they removed it.
@@schojdfjf6495 There's plenty of footage of them mashing buttons to get out being grabbed by the enemies. But yeah, it actually doesn't need it. Hell, RE3 remake didn't need them either.
Honestly this looks way better than the last gameplay trailer. Doesn’t feel as robotic and goofy. And it works extremely well for something that fits modern gaming standards. Dodging may be iffy to some but at least he isn’t parrying these monsters. Makes more sense to dodge.
While I have my problems with it this still looks really good so far and I love the little details like James updating the map by actually marking it, it's such a nice touch.
The fog is the worst part to me. Doesnt obscure enough of your vision, you can see monsters from much farther away. I think part of the charm of the original was not knowing where they were and then out of the fog they come running at you
Let me be honest I absolutely hate the black outline on the charecter model. It feels terrible. You're supposed to blend in with the fog and everything not feel like a sticker slapped on top of the world around you.
So much I love about this gameplay reveal, but one of my favourite things is the way James looks when making certain comments and more subtle reactions in the cutscenes, it looks so natural (the "Goddamnit..." and "What?" comments near the end, for example). Obviously, props to the voice actor and to the people working on the mo-cap/animations. Keep it up! :D
I think us fans will go nuts if they drop a final trailer exactly like the intro for the og silent hill 2 back in day,with Maria talking to James behind bars and the Theme of Laura's kicking in...maaan i would lose my shit with that trailer
@@mihaelkennedy We all seen veeery little of Maria in this game yet...so stop criticizing so soon! You don't know when the time comes (like the prison scene...and in other key moments) if her tone and facial expressions will change or not like she did in the OG too
@@roblereck How can you say that from such a short gameplay that was even edit into several parts of the game? The scene where Laura lured James inside the room with the ceiling monster gave me the same tension as it did back in 2001. The soundtrack is still 100% Akira Yamaoka artistic direction as it was in the original... visually the game is definitely more beautiful than the original (we are talking about 2001 technology) and is still dark enough to make you feel uneasy just by watching a gameplay (let alone playing ourselves) It's not a perfect game (not even the OG one was) nor a perfect remake...but it's the one that we deserved for such a long time I think Bloober Team is doing a pretty good job and i believe they're trying their best to be as faithful as possible to the original and to the creators "Team Silent"
My literal only complaint is the red filter for when you’re hurt. It’d be way cooler if your controller rumbled like the original and the LED on the controller was red.
Same. But I think they need to delete it. Because in the original game u can playthough the game with low hp to see the different ending. It will be hard to play with this red filter and when James slow down because of low hp. I think they need to make a inventory menu just like the original sh2
Thank you bloober team for giving this your best shot. Regardless of what happens when it releases, I still want to applaud you for taking on this massive challenge. All of the criticism you received when the second trailer came out wasn’t fair and I think you deserve a chance to prove that you can make awesome games.
absolutely love how he interacts with objects!!! i hope the game turns out good, it's hard to deal with a remake when you're so used to a game you plaued multiple times
I honestly believe bloober is really trying their hardest on their game, but adapting one of the most critically acclaimed horror games into an era of high-fidelity graphic trends and modernized gameplay is an uphill battle. The voice acting is better than the silent hill collection, but it feels like they didn't wanna try and retread that stilted vibe that made the OG's acting so iconic and atmospheric. Im sure it wont be the SH of everyone's dreams. But i can bet that people would look back at this as a genuine effort to remake silent hill 2. At least more fondly than Homecoming and Downpour.
I think the reason that they didn't go to the stilted voice acting is because it's probably a very thin line between being a weird voice acting that fits into that dreamy atmosphere and just being downright bad. I'm glad they went with the safe option on this one.
@@shellumit’s on sale and on Xbox, should I try to beat Homecoming? I’ve beaten Silent Hill 2-4. I’ve avoided it so that I don’t start to hate Silent Hill as a series.
I'm still waiting for Silent Hill 1 to get the same treatment. That game is in need of an update (to this day, I haven't gotten all of the endings because I rage quit due to the game forcing me to increase the difficulty each time I start a New Game Plus! Who thought that was a good idea!?).
I don’t understand why anyone is complaining, yeah the frames look a bit janky but apart from that I think it looks great. The atmosphere and music is all on point so looks good
Cause people don’t want a half assed remake esp for a cult classic, in this day in age if a game doesn’t have a solid 60fps the devs are doing smt wrong except if ur Nintendo cause :/ 30 fps and below is standard for them but that’s just a hardware issue
Something that annoyed me with the previous gameplay trailer was that when Bloober Team actually called out Konami for marketing it badly (even to the point of using older footage), I saw a comment that said something along the lines of "lol, they're gonna get fired for saying something like that." DUDE! We're in a day and age when this kind of thing was applauded because we hate seeing corporations getting away with this, and yet this one time, that commenter laughed at it (I can't remember where I found it or how many likes it got). Do they hate this company so much that they're willing to make fun of this when they would obviously have the opposite reaction if it was someone else that they liked!?
@@purplebruh947 While I don’t think that these guys were the best choice for a Silent Hill 2 remake (not even close), I highly disagree with the way you put that. Like, Jesus, calm down!
It feels very out of place for silent hill as well. Feels like It’d make much more sense in a action game like uncharted but definitely not a psychological horror game like SH
yeah there most likely will be since alot of games have that option, i can see booting up the game and it urges you to go to options to tailor how you want your experience to play out, kinda addinng to everyones own silent hill which would be such a cool nod!
@@trackerdark-heart3043Yeah, Silent Hill was never really big like RE, they're kinda niche and hit or miss for most people. At this point people would never satisfied, because they expect RE treatment for SH which is ridiculous.
The audio team coming in with their A-game! Audiowork is something most people take for granted these days, so I'll come out and say it: thanks for all the hard work, the game sounds amazing!
really? the sound design of the voices needs a lot of polish in my opinion. too many instances of reverb not matching environments. or multiple elements in the same environment having non-matching reverb.
They really heard the community and improved the game so much its actually cool. Mary's new design is very beautiful and i love that they changed james color hair. What i have a problem (not a big deal tho) is the lack of fog ik the city and it will be much cooler if when you attack the monsters they have visible wounds. Also the combat looks incredible good, its feels like a silent hill combat but with many improvements
@@MrSwitchblade327this is a well loved treasure of videogaming’s past - the Developers signed up for all of the feedback. The end product will be better because of it 🙏
@@MrSwitchblade327 Sweet baby is involved in this game people like you is why the gaming industry is such a mess just consume product, Maria outfit was changed but everyone else outfit the same , some of the VA’s are bad delivering iconic lines, angela face model looks better in a PS2 then PS5. Anyway you don’t care here’s your product now be a good shill and bend over
This looks a ton better than that travesty trailer they released for us before. It looks so fucking good its unreal. I am so impatient to play this again, having played the first silent hill on PS1 this game coming out for my PS5 is a dream come true
The only thing that doesn't convince me is the movement of the flashlight, it seems that James moves it with his eyes. In the original game it moved with the protagonist's body and I think that should be kept, if they wanted the flashlight to move with the eye at least add the detail of holding it with his hand from his shirt and moving it in a range from left to right . All this would help make the combat more uncomfortable since in the fights the light would shake giving the rawest and most unstable feeling. At the same time, there could have been possible glitches in the way the flashlight flashed or went out for a few seconds, causing James to tap it to turn it on. As an additional point, I would like the grain effect to be added to the graphic options in case someone wants to activate it as it happened in the old game.
Totally agree, and I think the flashlight could more wide, so could make more moving shadows on environment, and so it doesn't need to follow players sight. Silent hill doesn't need to be like resident evil to limit players sight.
That's kinda petty,a lot of older games from the Sega days were far worse I'm sure nobody cared to much as long as you leave with a experience and something to remember
@@khroxas I genuinly can't think of anything? Did they think it was too slutty or something? That was kind of the point. She was the opposite of what Mary was
Very few people might know all the problems and harsh criticism you've been through while developing this beloved legendary masterpiece of a game! The efforts are noticeable and welcomed! Please keep working as hard and best as you can, Bloober Team, it might not be easy, but you are working on the biggest game of your career!
A treat from hell. Great work from Bloober Team! As a fan of a series that changed my perspective on horror forever, this feels like Christmas! A new generation will get to know what the fuss was all about. Peerless!
The only things that can suggest before release is some things movement. The walking could be smoother and when he runs it can progress from a walk to a fast walk to a sprint instead of just a full spring from walking, just to add realism. And when he stops running he can slow down and then stop instead of just freezing. And just for fun, when the enemies are down and he still hits them, I’d like to see him hit the enemies in a more serious and aggressive way. That’s all, thank you,
for anyone crying in the comments “it’s not like the first one” blah blah blah. people can’t stand that it’s not like ps2 graphics, i think as far as the atmosphere it’s pretty good. i pre ordered this game and i guarantee it’s going to be awesome, no complaints from me
I love the cutscene from 11:04 to 13:20, as the acting is much better than the original's in this case. Also, Laura seems to be translated the best among the all of Silent Hill 2's characters.
way better than the last trailer BUT there’s still some jankiness/unpolished animations that i’m shocked are even in an official trailer. the weird animation run glitch when he’s opening that gate. the superhuman quick dodge. contortionist arm movements attacks and cutscenes. even the walk feels so robotic.
@@ChonBonham Bruh, it looks barely passable for a project of this scope. The animations are stilted. Look at him picking the first weapon up, this is worse than some random unity store asset flip game.
SH was formed from Konami heads seeing RE telling their devs "make one of those" and they just happened to make one of the greatest horror series of all time. From the beginning SH was inspired by RE.
Hey Bloober Team, what about adding more gore/larger blood puddles from James' attacks? Not anything too exaggerated, of course. Besides the other suggestions here, this is the one that comes off from top of my head... Have a nice development 👍
Why the change to look maria look less revealing? Its literially the whole point. Also why does the other girl look so weird? I have a feeling someone is looking through this game with a comb and making changes for no good reason.
Bloober Team, you guys are actually doing pretty dang good with this project! It is unfortunate that the marketing team does not understand your product, as they focused too much on the action. If the game is further polished by release, you guys might have a winner on your hands. I am excited for October now.
Take all the criticism on board and make the necessary corrections now, while there is still time. For example, there may be better improvements in the graphical sense, the battle mechanics seem very cumbersome and this issue can be corrected...
In case any bloober dev is reading this, thank you. I have not been into any of your games, but you got me here. I see the growth and attention to detail over the years. This feels like an absolute badass remake. Thank you for proving us all wrong. You deserve a mimosa today ;)
I've heard a theory that Maria is supposed to be in James's company only, she isn't on screen with any characters other than James, which makes sense to me.
@@fsd872 ok ya that makes sense. i wouldnt even consider that a theory thats pretty much just the conclusion the game points us towards. shes an aspect of james psyche made manifest by the town so nobody else would even be able to see her, she conveniently vanishes whenever we meet another character because otherwise it would shatter the illusion that shes a real person. i guess putting her in the scene with laura doesnt necessarily break that illusion since laura doesnt react to her, but to me it comes across as kind of thoughtless and sloppy and that doesnt make me super optimistic about their approach to adapting such a tightly constructed original story
im not a big fan of the interaction button, I enjoyed in the original just having to see what james is looking at and having to figure things out on my own. id like to at-least see a setting where you can turn off easy mode lmao
Guys I’m a big fan of the original SH2, and I think it’s looks good. Of course it’s not perfect, it’s need a bit more work (animations transitions, walking and running animations), but they have a couple months before release date. Let’s give them a chance
The fog looks wrong...I mean, look at this circular area that is clearly visible around the character, which just cuts off all the fog that gets into it, I don't think that's how it should work... In the original you were In the fog, not the fog around you...

State of Play.
So much I love about this gameplay reveal, but one of my favourite things is the way James looks when making certain comments and more subtle reactions in the cutscenes, it looks so natural (the "Goddamnit..." and "What?" comments near the end, for example). Obviously, props to the voice actor and to the people working on the mo-cap/animations. Keep it up! :D
I think us fans will go nuts if they drop a final trailer exactly like the intro for the og silent hill 2 back in day,with Maria talking to James behind bars and the Theme of Laura's kicking in...maaan i would lose my shit with that trailer
YES!
this looks like Silent hill from Walmart
Have you seen Maria in this game?
@@mihaelkennedy We all seen veeery little of Maria in this game yet...so stop criticizing so soon!
You don't know when the time comes (like the prison scene...and in other key moments) if her tone and facial expressions will change or not like she did in the OG too
@@roblereck How can you say that from such a short gameplay that was even edit into several parts of the game?
The scene where Laura lured James inside the room with the ceiling monster gave me the same tension as it did back in 2001.
The soundtrack is still 100% Akira Yamaoka artistic direction as it was in the original... visually the game is definitely more beautiful than the original (we are talking about 2001 technology) and is still dark enough to make you feel uneasy just by watching a gameplay (let alone playing ourselves)
It's not a perfect game (not even the OG one was) nor a perfect remake...but it's the one that we deserved for such a long time
I think Bloober Team is doing a pretty good job and i believe they're trying their best to be as faithful as possible to the original and to the creators "Team Silent"

My literal only complaint is the red filter for when you’re hurt. It’d be way cooler if your controller rumbled like the original and the LED on the controller was red.
Same. But I think they need to delete it. Because in the original game u can playthough the game with low hp to see the different ending. It will be hard to play with this red filter and when James slow down because of low hp. I think they need to make a inventory menu just like the original sh2

It’ll most likely be removable in settings don’t worry

It will either be removable or will not appear in harder difficulties.

Thank you bloober team for giving this your best shot. Regardless of what happens when it releases, I still want to applaud you for taking on this massive challenge. All of the criticism you received when the second trailer came out wasn’t fair and I think you deserve a chance to prove that you can make awesome games.
They got a chance and they clearly blew it.
@@sevenproxies4255 the game hasn’t even released yet, chill out dude
I’ll be honest with you guys, this is exceeding my expectations thank you for getting silent hill back on track
This looks dreamy af. THIS is Silent Hill. We're so back boisss!
Especially that short segment starting at 5:36, it's just so otherworldly, they absolutely nailed this scene IMO
REAL
I do like that scene, and I like how the Nurse in the hallway shows up. That was nice.
The cutscenes look amazing, just stunning. The gameplay itself still seems stiff, but much better than what we saw in that first trailer
absolutely love how he interacts with objects!!! i hope the game turns out good, it's hard to deal with a remake when you're so used to a game you plaued multiple times
I honestly believe bloober is really trying their hardest on their game, but adapting one of the most critically acclaimed horror games into an era of high-fidelity graphic trends and modernized gameplay is an uphill battle. The voice acting is better than the silent hill collection, but it feels like they didn't wanna try and retread that stilted vibe that made the OG's acting so iconic and atmospheric.
Im sure it wont be the SH of everyone's dreams. But i can bet that people would look back at this as a genuine effort to remake silent hill 2. At least more fondly than Homecoming and Downpour.
I think the reason that they didn't go to the stilted voice acting is because it's probably a very thin line between being a weird voice acting that fits into that dreamy atmosphere and just being downright bad. I'm glad they went with the safe option on this one.
I'm the only person that really enjoyed homecoming
@Reggiezombie Speak English
That’s a fair comment
@@shellumit’s on sale and on Xbox, should I try to beat Homecoming? I’ve beaten Silent Hill 2-4. I’ve avoided it so that I don’t start to hate Silent Hill as a series.
I wish for SH3 to get the same treatment.
I'm still waiting for Silent Hill 1 to get the same treatment. That game is in need of an update (to this day, I haven't gotten all of the endings because I rage quit due to the game forcing me to increase the difficulty each time I start a New Game Plus! Who thought that was a good idea!?).
@@troin3925if this game does well (I hope so) we will probably see 1 then 3 maybe 4 after
@@MrRaxicorniopholus I doubt it would result in a Silent Hill 1 remake. A 3 remake probably.
I say 4 would benefit more lol.
SH1 needs a remake before SH3 because 3 is a direct sequel to 1.
I don’t understand why anyone is complaining, yeah the frames look a bit janky but apart from that I think it looks great. The atmosphere and music is all on point so looks good
The combat is too good for james
@@remlezar2693the only thing we see him do is hit things violently and shoot things. the only thing he does differently is a mild sidestep at best
Cause people don’t want a half assed remake esp for a cult classic, in this day in age if a game doesn’t have a solid 60fps the devs are doing smt wrong except if ur Nintendo cause :/ 30 fps and below is standard for them but that’s just a hardware issue

If you ever see sunlight, you're not in Silent Hill
The acting is amazing I think a lot of people are underestimating this game
Bloober Team, I must say I am very impressed. You proved your worthy role of bringing a lot of care into this game. I’ll be waiting for 10/8/24.

They're just missing the static now
not sure about that. the sunlight and overall not super dark areas threw me off. it doesn't feel surreal
Almost 🙏
@@STEALTHYJDfrom the radio? It’s in the video
Almost ? It is

Will there be HDR support for this game on PS5?
Thank you guys for working on this despite the criticism. Looking stunning, can't wait for October
Something that annoyed me with the previous gameplay trailer was that when Bloober Team actually called out Konami for marketing it badly (even to the point of using older footage), I saw a comment that said something along the lines of "lol, they're gonna get fired for saying something like that." DUDE! We're in a day and age when this kind of thing was applauded because we hate seeing corporations getting away with this, and yet this one time, that commenter laughed at it (I can't remember where I found it or how many likes it got). Do they hate this company so much that they're willing to make fun of this when they would obviously have the opposite reaction if it was someone else that they liked!?
Yes, i would love bloober to get fired because giving one of the best games ever made to hacks who never made a decent game is very stupid
@@purplebruh947 Go play Observer, it's better than just decent.

I’m playing the original for the first time this week and was already scared. Looking at this, the atmosphere is almost identical if not better
3:14 I don't like it when game devs add effects on screen or shaking, hope there is a option to disable it.
It feels very out of place for silent hill as well. Feels like It’d make much more sense in a action game like uncharted but definitely not a psychological horror game like SH
That red ring around the screen and stuff? Yeah I seriously hate that.
Same! Please make an option to disable it. It just doesn’t look good.
Ugh
yeah there most likely will be since alot of games have that option, i can see booting up the game and it urges you to go to options to tailor how you want your experience to play out, kinda addinng to everyones own silent hill which would be such a cool nod!
In my restless dreams, I see that town… In beautiful 4K ❤️
This was a great trailer. The beginning part made me feel like I need a blanket. They’ve got the atmosphere down pat I think.
It looks great. Why are people still not liking it, could anyone explain?
Because they want so called "perfect " they want an almost exact copy of SH2 . A lot of people also hate Bloobers games.
They wanted a jumping Leon
Dei consulting agency's trying to make every piece of media "woke" for the new modern audience

@@trackerdark-heart3043Yeah, Silent Hill was never really big like RE, they're kinda niche and hit or miss for most people. At this point people would never satisfied, because they expect RE treatment for SH which is ridiculous.
Would be awesome if they add back the classic sound when picking up items.

@@deadly5881 yeah i wish it was louder
The audio team coming in with their A-game! Audiowork is something most people take for granted these days, so I'll come out and say it: thanks for all the hard work, the game sounds amazing!
Thank Akira Yamaoka for that. You know, the guy responsible for the audio and soundscape in *every* SH game, including this one.
yeah around 6:40 I get immersive sim vibes from that audio design, the humming and the ambience
really? the sound design of the voices needs a lot of polish in my opinion. too many instances of reverb not matching environments. or multiple elements in the same environment having non-matching reverb.
@@waltdistel716it’s actually like this in the older games too, but I think the graphical increase is making it harder to accept in this version of SH2

You guys are knocking it out of the park. Will be playing day 1 =)
They really heard the community and improved the game so much its actually cool. Mary's new design is very beautiful and i love that they changed james color hair. What i have a problem (not a big deal tho) is the lack of fog ik the city and it will be much cooler if when you attack the monsters they have visible wounds. Also the combat looks incredible good, its feels like a silent hill combat but with many improvements
Yes they did. Unfortunately instead of being grateful most people are now still trying to find tiny petty things to bitch about

Will there be a film grain option like the original game had?
Obviously
I never played the original but I'm excited for this one 😊
This looks a ton better than that travesty trailer they released for us before. It looks so fucking good its unreal. I am so impatient to play this again, having played the first silent hill on PS1 this game coming out for my PS5 is a dream come true
of course it is unreal. It is after all working on Unreal Engine
Getting old eh? LOL, me too, SH1 scare the crap out of me when i was like 13-14 yo.
PS: Same here!
I dont understand the first trailer was great...
The only thing that doesn't convince me is the movement of the flashlight, it seems that James moves it with his eyes. In the original game it moved with the protagonist's body and I think that should be kept, if they wanted the flashlight to move with the eye at least add the detail of holding it with his hand from his shirt and moving it in a range from left to right .
All this would help make the combat more uncomfortable since in the fights the light would shake giving the rawest and most unstable feeling. At the same time, there could have been possible glitches in the way the flashlight flashed or went out for a few seconds, causing James to tap it to turn it on.
As an additional point, I would like the grain effect to be added to the graphic options in case someone wants to activate it as it happened in the old game.
I agree with these comments, I hope they listen to you
Totally agree, and I think the flashlight could more wide, so could make more moving shadows on environment, and so it doesn't need to follow players sight. Silent hill doesn't need to be like resident evil to limit players sight.
That's kinda petty,a lot of older games from the Sega days were far worse I'm sure nobody cared to much as long as you leave with a experience and something to remember
Bruh22: Oh piss off, Snoy. Shills like you don't get a say

Why change Maria's outfit? Was there something wrong with it? Everyone else's seems to stay the same.
You know damn well why.
@@khroxas I genuinly can't think of anything? Did they think it was too slutty or something? That was kind of the point. She was the opposite of what Mary was

The game is pretty much done, they're just taking their time to polish it and correct bugs.
They got 130 days to polish and fix stuff plenty of time maybe idk I don’t work in video games
Thank u Bloober, this is the perfect remake! ❤ THANKS!!!!
This is freaking awesome! It really feels like SH2 now! Thanks! 🙂
Needs more darkness and fix animation when hiting with pipe, it looks clunky and unpolished.I know you can do better
James is always bright. As if he is always illuminated by a hidden light source.
A treat from hell. Great work from Bloober Team! As a fan of a series that changed my perspective on horror forever, this feels like Christmas! A new generation will get to know what the fuss was all about. Peerless!
The only things that can suggest before release is some things movement. The walking could be smoother and when he runs it can progress from a walk to a fast walk to a sprint instead of just a full spring from walking, just to add realism. And when he stops running he can slow down and then stop instead of just freezing. And just for fun, when the enemies are down and he still hits them, I’d like to see him hit the enemies in a more serious and aggressive way. That’s all, thank you,
This looks incredibly recreated and atmospheric. Can't wait for October 8th 2024
for anyone crying in the comments “it’s not like the first one” blah blah blah. people can’t stand that it’s not like ps2 graphics, i think as far as the atmosphere it’s pretty good. i pre ordered this game and i guarantee it’s going to be awesome, no complaints from me
I love the cutscene from 11:04 to 13:20, as the acting is much better than the original's in this case. Also, Laura seems to be translated the best among the all of Silent Hill 2's characters.
way better than the last trailer BUT there’s still some jankiness/unpolished animations that i’m shocked are even in an official trailer.
the weird animation run glitch when he’s opening that gate. the superhuman quick dodge. contortionist arm movements attacks and cutscenes. even the walk feels so robotic.
The walk looks pretty good imo remember he’s not some special agent like Leon Kennedy he’s supposed to be somewhat scared and nervous
it isn't finished yet
@@NoCapNick698 oh i know he’s not supposed to be, that’s why I find it robotic. he seems so stiff for a guy in a eerie situation.

Odd how 20 years ago resident evil was said to be a silent hill ripoff…and now silent hill is ripping off modern RE
Silent hill was always the resident evil “rip off”
Nobody ever said that.
Rip off is when game is remade into 3rd person is basically what you’re saying
@@eatcatchina5739 that's absolutely not what ripoffs are
SH was formed from Konami heads seeing RE telling their devs "make one of those" and they just happened to make one of the greatest horror series of all time. From the beginning SH was inspired by RE.
Looking good. Please give us the option to turn off the HUD for a more classic vibe
Hey Bloober Team, what about adding more gore/larger blood puddles from James' attacks?
Not anything too exaggerated, of course.
Besides the other suggestions here, this is the one that comes off from top of my head...
Have a nice development 👍
I agree .. some more blood .. maybe chunks of meat / skin coming off while shooting / hitting the monsters …
Why the change to look maria look less revealing? Its literially the whole point. Also why does the other girl look so weird? I have a feeling someone is looking through this game with a comb and making changes for no good reason.
Looks very good. This is silent hill 2 I have been waiting for!
You doing a really good job man ♥
Just don't rush, take your time and polish some details, but it looks AMAZING!
How about delay this for another 6-8 months? I'll be better, I think? This looks kinda flat for October.
Bloober Team, you guys are actually doing pretty dang good with this project! It is unfortunate that the marketing team does not understand your product, as they focused too much on the action. If the game is further polished by release, you guys might have a winner on your hands. I am excited for October now.
Take all the criticism on board and make the necessary corrections now, while there is still time.
For example, there may be better improvements in the graphical sense, the battle mechanics seem very cumbersome and this issue can be corrected...
Been waiting on this FOREVER!
Not a fan of Marias redesign at all. Why would they change it? Her original design had an explicit reason behind it.
In case any bloober dev is reading this, thank you.
I have not been into any of your games, but you got me here. I see the growth and attention to detail over the years. This feels like an absolute badass remake.
Thank you for proving us all wrong. You deserve a mimosa today ;)
maybe its a nitpick but wasnt maria specifically not in any scenes with laura in the original? missing that detail doesnt bode well to me
I've heard a theory that Maria is supposed to be in James's company only, she isn't on screen with any characters other than James, which makes sense to me.
@@fsd872 do you mean maria? laura appears with eddie in the bowling alley
@@ratdisease5280 yeah my bad
@@fsd872 ok ya that makes sense. i wouldnt even consider that a theory thats pretty much just the conclusion the game points us towards. shes an aspect of james psyche made manifest by the town so nobody else would even be able to see her, she conveniently vanishes whenever we meet another character because otherwise it would shatter the illusion that shes a real person. i guess putting her in the scene with laura doesnt necessarily break that illusion since laura doesnt react to her, but to me it comes across as kind of thoughtless and sloppy and that doesnt make me super optimistic about their approach to adapting such a tightly constructed original story
