Hate to be the bearer of bad news but his wording here is actually very misleading in an unfortunate way. He clarifies here https://twitter.com/mrsambarlow/status/ ... 7648582664 and here https://twitter.com/mrsambarlow/status/ ... 6641305602 that he isn't actually pitching a Silent Hill game to Konami. I think the phrase he should have used was "spiritual successor", not "follow-up", because now everywhere is reporting that he's pitching an actual sequel to Shattered Memories to Konami and getting excited. |

Honestly, I'd love it. Shattered Memories has a great narrative and it uses the gameplay to tell its story very well. If they can make a better, scarier gameplay, I would love it. Maybe learn from Alien: Isolation and even indie games like Cry of Fear, that you can balance combat with horror and still be very effective. |

Given that Her Story and Telling Lies are what they are, I wouldn't expect any future Sam Barlow games to lean heavier on combat than Shattered Memories did. And personally, I think that's fine. I'm always down for video games to try different things than what's come before. |

I agree with Nanaya. To me, Sam Barlow is what David Cage aspires to actually be but doesn't quite get to. |

Any non-combat game is fine with me. There's enough fighting in the world. . . . |
