Silent Hill

I am beyond disappointed in Max Derrat's take, and the consoomers in the comments section make me want to empty a fucking 12-gauge into my mouth.

How are you disappointed in the autistic consoomer faggot who defended halo infinite and 343
Who strawmans Silent Hill 4 fans every time he even brings up the name, who thinks himself the brighter and enlightened for autists, AND I SEE AUTISTS get behind him as an arbiter.
I've fucking hated Max Derrat for a long time.
he who makes pretentious pseud video essays on anime he JUST watched and normify them
Go join his discord to immediately read the room of where he stands.
This is the fucking guy who tried to say Rockstar's MANHUNT 1 is Nihilistic he paints ANYTHING BLEAK IN FICTION as NIHILISTIC. I hope he never EVER covers Hotline Miami or other goodies. He already misunderstood Texhnolyze.
Max Derrat is the EPITOME of popcorn philosophy channels and video essayists who expect their opinions to be given a fuck about and rely on their audience too much. Yeah... thats a nice term I can use to describe faggots like Max and Sisyphus 55. Degrading popcorn philosophy mindrot.

I hate how twitter retards, and retards in general can not possibly comprehend that remaking Silent Hill 2 is a fruitless endeavor. This is one of those Lighting-in-a-Bottle type games that's impossible to replicate. Silent Hill 2s, slightly off voice acting, 720p crunchy visuals with noise, early CG, Mary's Letter, shitty combat and incredibly clever symbolism is what makes the game so beautiful, and gave context to its overall atmosphere and storytelling. The fact that they went for over the shoulder rather then fixed camera is already a clear indication they have no idea what they doing. Silent Hill is subtle; Pooper Team (and AAA for that matter) have no idea how to be subtle.

I would sperg more but I'm tired, and I feel like I'm going insane because of the amount of people saying "this is going to be good". It's not, they already fucked up by remaking it in the first place.

IT LOOKS SO FUCKING BAD! Why ruin such an iconic scene on such a disgusting way?

do people not remember these games properly or did they not play them? Cause I keep seeing people say this. Silent hill had a behind the back camera, you had full control of it by holding L2 and using the right stick to learn the characters head to sweep the room which would also turn the flashlight.

It occasionally used fixed camera angles for key moments, like the alleyway in 1, or the mannequin of Mary in 2, but for the vast majority of the time the camera followed behind the character.

They're retards. You could hold the camera behind yourself, but not always. It was helpful for situations where you aren't sure what's ahead of you. Acting like that justifies the switch to generic the Resident Evil-esque camera is a huge leap.

I'm certain a vast majority of the people endorsing this trash haven't played the original. It's very doable even on low-end computers.
 
Those cheesy musical stings after interacting with objects or picking them up are awful. Supposedly you can turn all them off in the settings along with interaction prompts and texts.
Erhm, relax chuds. It's not so bad if you accept the remake wont be as good.
No surprise that the Silent Hill subreddit is cancer and full of maybe 10 people who actually played the games. They downdoot anyone who has genuine critiques and delete those posts because its unwarranted and seen as "muh negativity." Meanwhile, they proceed to flood the subreddit with optimistically blind posts praising an unreleased game being made by Bloober Team. The irony is lost on them and just makes me question what it is they got out of the original.
 
I cannot wait for the inevitable crowbcat comparison that will just show various cutscenes and parts of the game and how the original just mogs the demake in every way
It might even be one of my favorite videos of his, along with his RE4/Dead Rising 4 and TF2 hat/weapon skins videos
Another wave of:

Silent Hill fans cant wait to finally play a Silent Hill game.
 
How can anyone possibly say "yes, the one on the left is CLEARLY better!!11!!"'

I like how Bloober gave her Mary Poppins body language purely for the sake of putting their own, studio-branded stamp of shit on it. This is why I'm looking forward to watching a fan of the original LP it:

They're either going to be visibly tying themselves in knots trying to come up with plausible positives to say as they're repeatedly hit over the head with this stuff during their SILENT HILL 2 REMAKE SPONSORED! stream, or be entirely open about the existential depression playing a video game cynically designed around pandering to memories it doesn't understand is managing to fuel. Even if the player's experience settles into a general, slog tedium where any live commentary is for the sake of talking about anything else, I'll still find that entertaining for schadenfreude purposes.

I'm looking forward to the laying of this turd - Even though all the horrible ghosting artifacts around James' character model which are constantly emphasized by the chosen camera perspective will probably give me a migraine.
