Re: Analysis/Review of The Short Message - *SPOILERS*

Anita can look behind her during the chases. I missed this, but even then, given the tight corridors and the short distances, it's risky to even turn around briefly to look before you come up against a wall or grating. The level design in Shattered Memories better accommodated this with more outdoo...

Analysis/Review of The Short Message - *SPOILERS*

I finally got a PS5 and the first thing I finished was The Short Message. So here in this thread I want to detail my ongoing thoughts/analysis of this title. As a free download by Konami, it was a nice gesture for reviving the Silent Hill franchise, especially considering the last thing they did was...

Re: The Game Awards nominations

Seems like Game Award nominations have led to a boost in sales, including a 43% week on week increase for SH2 in Europe.

Re: Patch 1.06 - Many fixes, and the ****** Walls are back!

There are still Pro issues with upscaling tech, so it seems this feature was removed entirely.

A fair compromise could've been to give him a scaled down great knife as a cleaver melee weapon.

Re: Labyrinth progress bug introduced by new patch

Looks like another patch for Pro enhancements is on it's way. https://i.imgur.com/ZZux1Mw.jpeg UPDATE: While Pro-Enhanced is being labelled on the game, this is misleading for the time being as the game has no official Pro patch yet. There are reports of numerous games having visual issues on the Pr...

They are pleased with the Remake's success. Promise more "completely new" SH games coming, and another livestream transmission with a "variety of information". https://simulationdaily.com/news/konami-financial-results-q2-fy2025/ So it sounds good that the next transmission will f...

Re: Labyrinth progress bug introduced by new patch

Probably best to not download the patch at all if you haven't. The base version of the game outside of a softlock at the hospital and a few performance issues ain't bad. Anyway, Bloober knows and is on it. https://www.reddit.com/r/silenthill/comments/1g9ei4w/bloober_are_working_on_the_labyrinth_bug_...

Re: Hospital Softlock warning.

The latest 1.04 patch is out and this alongside many other issues is said to have been fixed.
https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/silen ... ps5-steam/

The fix applies to both the PC and PS5 versions.

The game should also run better with less stutters.

Re: Would you prefer SH1 or SH3 next?

I really don’t understand why some people think the story of the first game is weak or lacking. It's not that it was weak or lacking when it released. It is simply a step backward compared to it's sequels which have greatly improved upon it. To keep the franchise going, you're going to want to ensu...

Re: Would you prefer SH1 or SH3 next?

The problem now is that SH2 Remake has been well received, and many people playing it for the first time are rightfully loving it for it's story. SH1 is a step back in that department without a lot of new creative writing. This will be hard to do as SH1's narrative is more focused on the supernatura...

Re: TWO New SH Games In Development??? (New SH Game Rumours)

There didn't seem to be high expectations from anyone about Ascension, which was not even a game. And the free Short Message didn't put anyone off either, so while it had things to criticize, it was overall a pretty neat thing given away for free as a goodwill gesture, which was appreciated. No doub...
