I like this essay on SH4. Sharing.

I have always been in the crowd that really likes Silent Hill 4 despite of its flaws or the ways in which it doesn't match the expectations of a Silent Hill game. This particular essay sort of confirms some of the theories I had about the games development. I like this so take a moment to check it o...

Re: And... Predictably, people are already complaining.

I'm dropping this from the thread I'd started since I missed this topic: I've seen a lot of discourse claiming that everything is wrong about the trailer for the remake and while it's A)expected knowing how passionate our fambase is for these games,2 in particular. B) Good to be cautious, never ove...

Re: Extra Content Yay/Nay/What?

For me give me more stores or apartments or creepy rooms to explore. Something that won't touch the story but will give new things to see.

Re: And... Predictably, people are already complaining.

I mean I get it we were burned hard last time. The loss of PT and Silent Hills is still felt today. "F Konami" is still not gone from our brain. (Wouldn't it be funny if the title screen for the new game read: SILENT HILL f Konami due to some unfortunate design choice?) So I get it But rig...

Extra Content Yay/Nay/What?

A lot of us want them to not touch or change anything in the actual game other than graphics and music... But for theories sake, let's walk into yes territory.

If they are definitely going to add something new to the game. What is your number one biggest wish on your list?

Only ONE.

Re: It’s happening…

I can tell you the exact moment I realized I was on board. The moment James stepped out of the bathroom and I saw the fenced of tunnel with the sign "WE COM" IF THAT'S THE LEVEL OF DETAIL THAT THEY WILL BE BRINGING TO THE TABLE, I'm in, I'm yours, take me now, yes with the Great Knife, har...

Re: James Actor - Luke Roberts

One thing I like is that the voice actor is very much trying to maintain the tone of the original James voice actor. Because what I hated about the HD collection was that the tone in which he was saying the things did not even come close to James's tone. In this one it's the same intonation with a d...

Re: They've changed something...

I think the emotion is different but the source is the same. Even in the original James is trying to convince himself that the letter means what he wants it to mean. Before he enters the town he's still wondering if it's even possible. He's trying to convince himself to go out there. I honestly stil...

And... Predictably, people are already complaining.

I was so prepared to hate the very notion of a remake. But I have to be honest that the trailer floored me. Goosebumps, teary eyes, all the emotions going crazy. For me it was a thing of beauty. But of course this is the internet in 2022... And of course Konami did what they did a couple years back....

Re: How Much of the Music Will Be Remade?

I have to be honest I hated the Silent Hill to voice acting in the HD collection. I love the original actors, hammy as they might be. I thought the new actor for James did a very good job in the trailer

Re: Cafe 5to2 in the SH2 remake

I saw that too. Such a nice detail. Also it kind of gives me hope about the possibility of them having allowed access to some of the other buildings in town for exploration. Even though it didn't hurt the game at all that was the one thing I always felt was missing from Silent Hill 2 and 3. The expl...

Re: How Much of the Music Will Be Remade?

I love Mary Elizabeth and would love to hear her come back. I was always undef the impression that she voiced Angela and Claudia but under a different name (maiden name?), or am I wrong?

Could someone confirm? Because if that's the case this game would be a great comeback opportunity.

Re: The Big Spoiler at the End 20 Years Later

Yes. Back in the day they explained the reason the otherworld shifts weren't as clear cut in SH2 as them losing some of the code. Also, if I remember correctly, there was at least one monster that didn't make it because of that.

Re: The Big Spoiler at the End 20 Years Later

I'm so excited to have a whole new generation discover Silent Hill. Do you guys remember that when Silent Hill 2 came out they had mentioned that a lot of the code had been lost, ans several of the planned areas and monsters had not been included in the game? I remember Masahiro Ito in particular ex...

At least that's what I hope, because sound design is one of the most important key aspects of horror.

Re: The Big Spoiler at the End 20 Years Later

Incredibly for me it was never really about the twist because I had kind of figured it out before James sat down to watch the video. It was more about the emotion of the scene with James realizing what he done and having that just wash over him. Then to pour salt in the wound having Laura come in an...

Re: How Much of the Music Will Be Remade?

I think most of the original soundtrack will be there just maybe a little reworked with some added tunes or songs to it.
