Silent Hill

[30+GameOvers]

The Outer Worlds

Let's be fair here: It's still better than Fallout 76 and especially Starfield, and it triggers the shit out of Bethesda tards. That alone makes it good enough for me, better than 343 Gaylo in any case

Ironically, the guntguarding for the game will itself evaporate once these aspiring contrarians find that the relative mediocrity of the product managed to dissipate most of the criticism they were expecting to get high "engaging" with.

It's even simpler than that: People who defend it either haven't played it or are normalfags who have short attention spans and will move on in a few weeks to the new big thing. There will be no royalty for this product, it will be seen as mediocre by actual gamers and as some sort of masterpiece by non-gamers much like any shilled AAAA product these days. In other words, there is nothing special about it even among the current crop of niggercattle products.
To bring up RE4R again, funny how the number of people who defended or liked the game dropped substantially several weeks after release, and then completely dropped off the radar several months later. Now, I would be hard pressed to find anyone who likes this game outside of the circlejerk communities made for it or the odd Capcom fanboy who likes everything they make off of brand loyalty alone, meanwhile the original RE4 is eternal and will always be relevant. Same thing with SH2R and SH2.
Seeing these demakes be doomed to die out in mediocrity is the best feeling in the world.

This is the RE4 remake hullabaloo all over again. Give them some time and the Blooper shills and guntguarders are all going to be "yeah maybe it wasn't that good" and everyone will just go back to appreciate the OG.

Precisely, beat me to it

Did they keep the walter sullivan grave or did they try update it to tease a silent hill 4 demake (jesus christ how horrifying)

If any SH game actually needs a remake, it would be this one. As already stated, it won't happen because it's the "unpopular entry".
SH4 gets way too much hate, if it had it's kinks polished out it could have been amazing. I love the concept of being stuck in your own apartment, and the only way out being thru some hell portal.

Watched a stream of the ending. Mary's monologue is soulless dreck and the pacing is completely wrong.

For anything complained about with the game, the one sticking point that should've been done perfectly, wasn't. Color me shocked. It completely defeats the purpose of the game.

Every Autumn/Winter time I have a marathon of the first three games, sometimes the fourth as well. Alas, when packing my things and moving, I didn't think to pack my PS2 and my Silent Hill games, whoops.

The SH2 remake looks awful. I don't mean awful as in I-absolutely-hate-it awful, but just... bland. Everything about it just lacks any kind of soul or character.

dead space remake was totally ruined by ea's motive studio. motive studio is a woke activist studio full of feminists, blm and alphabet supporters, just go do a deep google about that studio and you find out.

I didn't care to do more than check out the game upon release, and, though I enjoyed it, I wasn't impressed enough to do a new game+ run. If I ever do, I'll see if any more of these behind-the-scenes shenanigans managed to reach the surface. With regard to the side characters being unnecessarily fleshed out with bullshit the writers knew wouldn't amount to anything: Even when I started the original game, I looked at the crew members headed to the Ishimura with you and thought, "these characters only exist to die." So perhaps my absence of disgust is due to my never having been invested in any of the Dead Space characters, either way. I don't even consider Isaac to be more than a satisfying stomp (in that respect, making him more than a silent protagonist in the remake was a failure).

The above post describing the Demake as niggercattle feed to be consumed, virulently engaged with, then immediately forgotten seems to be the most accurate appraisal. Because I'm only experiencing the game via a lolcow streaming it, it'll be a few days before I have more specific impressions with respect to having played 1 through Homecoming as they were released (Homecoming ensured I would no longer be fooled into buying subsequent installments - The entire franchise has remained a cynical, Asylum Redbox rental knockoff of Silent Hill ever since.)

at least sh2 remake didnt get the race swap, alphabet insert and the tranny toilet treatment.

You're not considering how the change to the toilets enriched the overall story of the game and mended a major plot hole.

Consider that the Necromorph mass was gradually growing inside the Ishimura's ventilation system for days leading up to the first major mass necromorph outbreak, converting shedded skin cells and waste material into a flesh mycelia throughout the entire ship.

With the change, the explanation as to how the crew did not notice has been elegantly baked into the game world's diegetic story telling.

The crew didn't notice the entire ship gradually starting to smell like rotting flesh and shit everywhere they went because they were accustomed to the stench of their crewmates' dilation holes.

Look what they did to Null Moon. You made this ethereal track into... what the fuck? Funk? Busy shitty generic drumming with a retarded opera singer. It loses the magic of the scene. Where the fuck is the emotion now? Its the same gripes I have with the ff7 demakes but at least they have some that sound okay.

A better reconstruction of the track

This SH2 demake soundtrack is like what would happen if modern composers got ahold of the TWIN PEAKS soundtrack and took away everything emotional, mysterious and impactful about it. RIP Angelo, he greatly influenced many tracks of Silent Hill, even the main theme of 1.

Even when I started the original game, I looked at the crew members headed to the Ishimura with you and thought, "these characters only exist to die." So perhaps my absence of disgust is due to my never having been invested in any of the Dead Space characters, either way.

In the original the drama is limited to just Kendra and Hammond. Hammond fronting as the consumate professional who is the most direct in trying to get things fixed, but might be a company diehard who will betray you at a moment's notice. Kendra by contrast is more emotional, persuasive and intuitive, and she intentionally fans a little spark of doubt in Hammond's trustworthiness. You're also more inclined to be sympathetic with her, as she has a very natural feminine reaction to the impossible horror going on initially (A ruse on her part you realise in retrospect).

Its standard Survival Horror "who can I trust" window dressing like with Barry in RE1, but its serving a purpose and setting the player up for a fall when it comes to trusting Kendra. When she callously admits to exploiting Isaac when she knew he was suffering a mental breakdown after watching Nicole die, there's no room in your heart for sympathy; the betrayal is meant to bite deeply and angrily to propel you toward chasing after her. Then the Hive robs you of the satisfaction of killing her yourself.

The remake not only makes Kendra more sympathetic, Isaac even reaches out to save her before the Hive crushes her like its a moment of tragedy.

Imagine Chris reaching out to Wesker before the Tyrant skewers him.

Revisionism for the sake of making a female antagonist less evil, narrative impact be damned.

 

[Marc]

That was very well explained, @UrbanBeard. I recall my first impressions of Kendra and Hammond in the original game being to wonder which would turn out to be the Wesker in the final act, before correctly guessing it would be Kendra as I noted the red herring groundwork being laid for her heel-turn. Apparently, the combination of passed time and being even less invested in the story the second time around resulted in my not registering that the bland characters were being fleshed out in a way which undermined the roles they served in the original story.

And when criticizing anti-gamers that hates gamers but works in the gaming industry, you get white knights like the number 1 creepy-ass cuckold Dave Rivera and CerberusXT to the rescue.

Imagine a car company stating they want to get rid of car drivers. How can you employ disgusting monsters who want to eradicate your costumers?? Wtf is this shit? Why are these people getting hired in an industry they openly hate and work to to destroy? WTF is going on here? Is there a (communist? jewish? Illuminati? WEF? Whatever? ) conspiracy to destroy video games and the billion dollar game industry? Destroy all games to make the ex-gamers do what...?

I don't get it.

Ah yes the last stage; GASLIGHTING!
The internet defenders were already pulling it. Good to see Konami do it too to make negative nancies like me look more crazy so they can fantasize about weird wojak dynamics. Unfortunate that I don't care if I look unhinged and MATI.

 

[Balr0g]

I made a side by side comparism of the original vs the remake. It might be just me but I feel the original had a better atmosphere with the thick fog. Also: why must every remake get bloated? The remake opening minutes are longer the in the original. Just like with the Dead Space remake

I didn't sense any david lynch in the trailers, and I have a feeling the final game is just as lacking when it comes to lynchness. Can anyone who has played it say otherwise? Does anyone from the current generation even know who david lynch is?

I don't get it.

Finding out whose funding it should tell you everything you need to know. What's happened to the industry is due to both greed and apathy sure, but there is another element of the "larry fink" variety which has set us down this path we are on aside from the greedy companies and apathetic gamers.

I think on some level the power-havers know that normies don't care how foul the messaging gets in media or how antagonistic they might get toward gamers, niche nerd culture in general and white heterosexual (even gay to a degree) men.
They do however have a serious imbalance when it comes to gamers, niche nerd culture in general and white heterosexual (even gay to a degree) men becoming violent domestic extremists and actually causing the kind of trouble the power havers really need as a cassus belli to justify stomping harder on the majority of the population's necks.

They think if they can antagonise the majority enough, enough of the fringe weirdos will eventually lose their minds and do something stupid that the entire Overton Window can be shrunk around that fringe of a fringe of a fringe, and thereby justify crushing the freedoms of everyone to everyone.

The thing they want you to be more than anything is crazy and violent.

The thing that drives them fucking nuts is when you're articulate, funny, persuasive and charming and they can't silence you.

Considering how obsessed Airbagged is with Maria, he should go full waifuist mode and declare his love for her, complete with crusty body pillow.

Call it gaslighting, holier-than-thou attitude, jealousy, faggotry.....

These people are just living a miserable life beneath their smug posturing, it's their form of cope.

Ah yes, the "modern audience." The same people who aren't fans and don't even support their stuff in the first place and just spout socio-political bullshit whenever possible. If the game was for "modern audiences," James would have been a gender-fluid weirdo who has a deranged racist gay nigger for a "wife" and all of his enemies would have white skin and/or are caricatures of Nazis.

It helps when they go broke when they don't appeal to anyone who will actually buy their products, too.
It looks like the great defenders of demake slop are already done "enjoying" their game and going on full-blown damage control mode. Funny how I am not seeing any arguments as to how the demake is good, let alone better than original, only that I am wrong and a chud and blah blah blah, same thing as with every demake. Mental illness, nothing more.
