Tbf, he did write the best written VN. Silent Hill in terms of writing isn't that complicated, so it should be fine.
Hey now, Ryukishi didn't write Gou and given how he stopped talking about it after the first few episodes. He probably regrets shilling for it.
I hope it's at least better than what im expecting, saw some promise in that first trailer but the fact that the protagonist appears to be a barefooted schoolgirl is scaring me that the game's headed towards the coomer weeb side
Ito's and Yamaoka's opinions are meaningless. Of course they're going to tow the line because they have families to feed.
I don't like the nurse in that thumbnail!
Alright then, tell me, what VN do you think has better writing than Umineko.
I’ve seen people say that a million times but I just don’t believe it. Who knows, maybe I’ll watch a story summary of Silent Hill F when it releases. Still won’t buy it though.
If combat is what they're concerned with, they didn't understand the game at all. You don't play it for the combat. It's clunky and bad on purpose since James isn't a soldier.
The main reason to play Silent Hill is for the story and atmosphere. It isn’t meant to be like Resident Evil or Dead Space.
It's not like he was a big part in the writing team, he only came up with the monsters designs and the art direction, Hiroyuki Owaku was the one that came up with the story.
That said I don't know, they could be genuinely excited or just doing lip service hard to tell because Ito looks so dead in the inside. Not liking the fact that they seem to be all about the graphics making everything super detailed instead of letting space for your imagination to go wild, this is something that all the old games excelled at and also added another layer to the psychological horror.
Given how he still shills Gou merch on twitter with the exponentially increasing volume of satoko and rika spam (because everyone else left), he just doesn't care. Then he shilled anniversary events for his other IP's briefly before shilling gou merch again.
The remake would really do well to get rid of the tank controls. They're an artifact from programmers who didn't know how to make thirdperson controls and Unreal Engine 5 comes with a decent thirdperson setup by default. It makes Silent hill a slog to go through and kills any replay value to where I'm better off watching the story in a video.
Again, gameplay isn't the selling point with the early SH games.
There really is nothing like how the first 3 games do horror. SH4 could’ve been scary but the monster sounds were borderline comedic. SH2 still has some of the best atmosphere in video games but the remake will fuck it up with cheap jump scares.
Third person doesn't always mean OTS. It just means any other POV besides the player character's. Silent hill by default is a third person game.
Fair enough. SH isn't fixed camera, but the camera changes quite a bit. Tank controls is the best way around that when dealing with transitions.
With the understanding that Umineko is that good, and therefore I'm obligated to shill for it.
Its the year, current year, Silent Hill still doesn't get it and is still trying to be Resident Evil.
