Silent Hill Heaven

Not to get too far off topic, but I think there’s more than just this note connecting it to the Silent Hill franchise. There are also similar design sensibilities, audio components, and themes that carry over from the prior entries in the franchise. Once the game got into its groove towards the sta...

Should be any minute now, if they said it was going live after the broadcast.

The remake doesn't look too bad from what I can tell! No release date yet, strangely, though.

^ came here to say that. Here's where that quote likely came from:

I wouldn't mind seeing stuff about the executioners from the town's past in general, but I hope that wording is just unclear - it could read like the origin story is PH's, but it also could be that PH is back in general *and* the game has an origin story to play through (a la Born from a Wish, or ma...

Whether it turns out well or not, I'm excited to see what happens. The devs are clearly putting a lot of work into it, and I appreciate how forthcoming the Genvid lead was being over at Resetera about everything. At the very least, it's a nifty thought. I just wish I could participate that first nig...

It would be nice to talk to someone who participated in Genvid's previous projects of a similar nature before this one. Maybe someone should try and track down someone who participated in a previous one somehow to get a better idea of how it works? That might work out well, but they've also mention...

The Genvid CEO has been pretty active in the related threads over at ResetEra - however the end product ends up being, it's pretty clear to me that the team is passionate about it and really wants to do good by the fanbase. One thing of note is that they'll rerun the story at the end of the season, ...

Looks like there might be another Pyramid Head-esque figure? At least, the last shot shows something really ominous-looking in shadow that makes me think of that sort of thing. Design looks entirely different, though, which is really nice. I wonder how this'll pan out.

Some people seem to think that any sort of modification whatsoever inherently devalues things and insults the original, and I just can't get down with that. Whether or not you think the original voices' stiltedness adds to the game's atmosphere, voice acting has come a long way since 2001. We have t...

Japanese Developed Silent Hill - this was a huge part of the rumors prior to yesterday's reveals. Every time the Bloober Team SH2 and Annapurna SH project were mentioned, the leakers also said "and there's a major Silent Hill game being developed in Japan with a Japanese studio". However,...

From what I understand, NeoBards are the developers in that they're literally just developing the game itself. Dusk Golem made it sound like they're basically doing the piecework, with the creative team being headed by the Umineko author. Though they've mostly only done visual novels. I doubt they'd...

Genvid's CEO posts over at ResetEra, in case anyone is interested! They've mentioned some of the stuff about Ascension. https://www.resetera.com/threads/silent ... t-95162493

I'm VERY interested honestly. Wary of the SH2 stuff and I doubt it'll be particularly faithful (MAYBE parts of the remake since Yamaoka and Ito are on board), but I'm interested to see what they try. I'm actually on board with it not necessarily being a "personal" hell as long as it's done...

HELLLLLLLLL YEAH I'm excited!

I'll take it! And it's almost your 13th anniversary.

I can't believe it's been that long, whoa. Good to still be here.

I almost wonder if we'll end up getting a game from a more no name studio. Hmmm.

What is this, 2009?

Surprise!

It really seems like all the rumors and such have brought a bunch of us back.

Considering text messages are commonly referred to as SMS (short message service), the text messaging aspect makes sense. Could be a localized title, I wonder?

Looks like something might actually be coming.

EDIT: OOP Nanaya got in first hahaha

I shouldn't be surprised people are pissed. This forum was one of the only places for Silent Hill fandom I could handle, most other sites are just so toxic...
