You know the game is written by a man because no woman would reject a rich Chad. Reminds me of those movies where women are horrified their Chad boyfriend is a serial killer. Yeah, right. The average woman would be soaking wet if they discovered their attractive boyfriend was a serial killer.

Ignoring all the story debate, I hated the gameplay. I found the combat more frustrating than anything else, the enemies are sponges and nothing flows well. This game should have been more focused on exploration, puzzle-solving, atmosphere, and story, but in the end, it's an action game with a lot of wasted potential. I think that old PS2 game, The Suffering, did a better job of making a "Silent Hill-inspired action horror" game, lol.
>>
>>722387637
I just ran away from everything save boss fights and gauntlets, and by then I had so many consumables and weapons that I infinite stamina/sanity attacked my way through with ease.
>>
You can tell all of these posters didn't okay the game because the ending makes the message 100x worse and you feel a visceral hatred for the main character
>>
There you have a problem, because like it or not, combat is the bread and butter of this game. In several situations, you're thrown into the equivalent of "arenas" where you're forced to kill enemies. They could have added a stealth system, but they don't. That medallion that reduces enemies' vision range doesn't have much effect, in my opinion. The game wants you to fight, but at the same time punishes you for fighting and doesn't give you many escape options.Sorry, I don“t think its a good game bro...
>>
>>722388196
Nah the clam onamori makes a noticeable difference. Just run past enemies. You have enough charms and consumables to make the mandatory fights easy. Also the combat shouldn't be fluid given she's a scared girl inexperienced swinging a pipe. You guys would probably prefer she had ice skates with her attacks.

Linear hallways with only one way to go with giant open areas giving you the illusion of expansive exploration and unshackled freedom of movement

>>
I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I think I prefer SH Homecoming, even though I hate that game. Precisely because after you learn that the knife is the best weapon in the game and you learn how to do the combos that kill monsters really quickly, combat becomes trivial.

The combat system is close to being good but yeah it is flawed.

The first few hours of the game were actually great for me, because the first areas of the town are interesting to explore, the tone is just right and I was actually struggling with basic enemies (I was playing on hard).
When I realised that counters don't actually drain max sanity like focus moves, and that I could regen stamina just by waiting instead of using consumables, it made that tension go away pretty quickly though.
One of the rare times I thought a game was better because I didn't understand the mechanics...

Everything to do with this game's otherworld is terrible. I don't have a problem with what they went for in terms of the japanese stuff but those otherworld beast form segments are not fun at all. It should have been just 1 area where you have that power, the actual story scenes surrounding it are fine but every time I ended up in the other world shrine I wish I was back in the town.

Also, the gauntlet at the end is fucking terrible. The idea of putting you in arenas to kill all enemies before you move on is bad enough but when I had to fight x3 of those pregnancy monsters in a row I could not contain how stupid it was.

All in all it's a solid game, 7/10 easily and the best non-Team Silent SH game I've played.
>>
>>722389316
I was told the little dolls that are strewn around everywhere in that part are traditionally used in rituals to wish for pregnant women to have healthy children and the big one with a split open head is a patriarchal figure
Probably something another about her father having the expectation that she's going to have lots of kids with foxdude so she split his head open in her schizo mind but that still wasn't enough to get rid off it as his eye still tracks her every move and she's desperate to get away from it when you examine it
>>
>>722388778
The wolf arm is a fox arm, akshully, and how does that contradict what I said? The fox arm is literally easy mode per the story.
>>
People that say SH was never combat focused have never actually played SH. Almost all these games have a shitload of combat in them, SH in particular has so much of it it's insane
>>
>>722390413
In SH1 you can run past nearly everything, especially outside.
>>
>>722390457
There is less "forced" combat in SHf than SH by a factor of like ten anon.
>>
>>722382740
Reverse the roles:
>marry this random village girl
>chad no I will find my own girl
>fuck off you trad fucks
>>
The biggest twist of this entire game is still that they are all in their 20s and them wearing their school uniforms and looking like kids is all just Himiko's schizo mind
Rinko is honestly the only sane one, Shu being in his 20s and still going along with the stupid ass Space Wars LARP running through town with a baseball bat while shouting about monsters is beyond retarded
>>
>>722389572
>a used up whore who fucks her best friend's boyfriend for drugs and still has the gall to look the woman she is cuckolding in the eye the next morning and pretend they are buddies
Average Japanese woman, minus the drugs probably. Lie as easy as they breathe, it's just how they navigate social life over there. Not just for women, to be fair, but they're especially apt at it.

>>722389775
basically agree with everything you said. I thought the first pregnancy monster was a really cool boss and then my heart sank as I noticed it went in the regular enemies tab in the journal instead of the boss tab. you have to fight like 10 more of them and the ones in the real world have EVEN MORE health

I also really hated the blood vomit guys, you don't encounter them in groups enough for them to be a real threat and they're annoying to take down on their own since they have such a massive health pool and 2 out of their 3 attacks prevent you from getting close to them

good game, very flawed mechanically but appreciated they tried to do something interesting with the combat when all the other games in the series are so simple that way

Those are the worst part of the entire game bar none. At least the pregnant monsters you can kill, those fuckers just sit there and spawn flower fields around them that take half a minute to disappear so you can either jump in lose a bunch of health while you get grabbed and potentially comboed by something else in the area or just sit there waiting. And waiting. And waiting. And then jump in for a few quick hits before it decides to grow another field around itself. It's fucked up.

What you said, solid 7/10 game with several flaws. I think its much better than people are making it out to be, but not quite as good as the original games. I'm enjoying myself on NG+ so far, except Hard mode combat is starting to kick my butt. The game is being really stingy with items when my first playthrough on story difficulty was too much.
If they improved on what they have in this game with regards to combat, story telling, scare factor, etc. then I think we'd have a contender for a game as good as the originals.
>>
>Story starts out as alright and slowly devovles into utterly asinine anime garbage brainworms
>Setting starts out alright until it makes you backtrack thru it like six fucking times
>Combat starts out alright until it pits you against fucking DMC-style gauntlets against the most infurating enemies ever seen in a videogame coming at you in numbers the combat system was never designed to accomodate
>Otherworld starts out alright until you're basically walking thru copy-paste Nioh castles that aren't even remotely scary or demonic over and over and over again
>Resource management is non-existent as the game FORCES you into an ending that lets you use an overpowered healing item, on top of drowning you in regular resources
>Soundtrack might as well not even exist from how incredibly forgettable it is
>Multiple playthroughs required to unravel the story, despite the game having almost negative replayability
Goddamn I haven't played a game that became so much WORSE the more I played it, couldn't even muster a fuck to wrap up my NG+ run after beating her parents again

I was rooting for him until I found out he drugged her with the intention of "opening her mind" to make her pick him and it lead to her having psychotic hallucinations. The whole time she thought he was helping her with her headaches

NTA.

But that seems like the perfect representation/takedown of possessive purityfags/muh waifu tards, makes sense for who he is and who those people are, maybe it hit too close to home for you but we can all grow up and be better men.
>>
>>722396853
Like I get he was desperate and obviously he didn't think it would turn her psychotic but he basically ruined his chances by breaking her trust. I believe Hinako was starting to develop a crush on him and he had an advantage over foxboy because he was her refuge from her family, he is safe, she knows him for years and trusts him while foxboy is new uncharted territory.

>>722382969
Imagine a beautiful rich woman wants to marry you, the first thing you would think is what do they hope to gain from me? Are they going to drug me and steal my kidney? Him being so rich just gives him much more power over her and her family so the power dynamics put her at a massive disadvantage. If he turns out to be an asshole and she needs to run away, her parents would just tell her fuck off because money! The help are on his side, she lives in his house and he could probably have guards or hire private detectives if she runs away. That alone would make any girl fearful. If the power dynamics were more equal her parents would be much more likely to fight against his family. That is before the added trauma of having shit parents that makes her terrified of marriage. Luckily for her she can feel his devotion (although he was also manipulated to do so) towards her and his presence soothes her

also only having easy or hard to pick from is a huge mindfuck because hard has actually been pretty hard, although some of that could just be me misunderstanding the mechanics (still spent at least 30 mins on the kusarigama boss)

Ryukishi is a bad writer. He's like the Zero Escape guy in that he's more focused on breaking rules than writing something good (hence the plot of Umineko where the only way it makes sense is a massive plot contrivance, or Higurashi's "it was brain parasites").

Her portrait is unfinished because she hasn't gone through with the wedding yet. You can see from the portraits of the previous fox brides, though, that facelessness is just a thing. Ryukishi07 was trying to symbolically represent the idea that women lose their former individuality as a result of their marriage, probably; same reason her older sister is never seen without the mask on, and same reason shiromuku is also faceless.

7 - average
8 - solid
9 - great
10 - perfect

I dropped this game. The mechanics weren't really interesting and the themes it was talking just didn't resonate with me. We've been talking about female oppression for what 80 years now? Get a move on for fucks sake

>7/10 easily and the best non-Team Silent SH game I've played.
My fucking ass, it's not even a passing 5/10. Homecoming was better than this, and Shattered Memories did the whole branching off from core SH much better than F ever did. This shit's barely better than Downpour.

I agree that she has a tumour and the same illness as her mother, but the wedding to Kotoyuki is real and they are alive until it happens.
The Fox Origami is a premonition of what will happen in a possible future: Shu kills himself, Hinako runs away after the wedding, Sakuko did had a heart attack and most people die as a side effects of the gas. The game just did not made it clear how Rinko dies in a fire. However, this is just one possible future, they are alive until the wedding and the game is before the wedding. It is clear that they are alive at that point because in the first ending, we see things from the perspective of the police and hear Shu regretting giving her the medication, as well as hearing the thoughts of other people in the village, so they did not die yet, maybe only Sakuko and Rinko.
Perhaps Shu initially intended to give her the medication for her own good, but in the Fox Wedding Ending it is clear that he intended to incapacitate her for the wedding.

I said runs away after the wedding, but it is before actually, since I remembered that the description said that she was wearing her student uniform.
>>
>>722411530
kotoyuki did want to marry her and all that stuff. but while hinako is having her woman moment, the illness shows up and fucks her up beyond repair. maybe she doesn't even know that she is ill. so the pills and her illness make her a complete schizo.
>>
>>722411530
>Hinako runs away after the wedding
In the fox wedding ending? Isn't it possible that "disappeared" just refers to the idea that she was spirited away by a fox? It's kind of confusing because most of the dialogue points to Kotoyuki using normal means to court her, but he does mention spiriting away in one ending, and the girl whose portrait is next to Hinako's in >>722410284 is wearing clothing that matches the description of a missing poster you see early on in the game. I thought that perhaps, even though Kotoyuki abides by human customs and marries her legitimately, he then takes her away and she becomes a missing person.

The problem is that they were far too proud of the combat system. If the game didn't have so many obligatory gauntlets, it wouldn't be such a big issue.

as I said in my post about my interpretation. many girls go missing in the town and the people made up some cope about them being "spirited away to a better life" while in reality they were raped and murdered by the guy in the mountain shed who lured the girls to his hideout. the guy seems like some rape baby or just out of wedlock baby the mother just abandoned in the mountain so he became a psychopath.

but you are right that the game - if you follow the folklore angle - shows the girls' pictures as the fox brides which get the fox mask when they marry the foxes

I was suppose to say before the wedding because of the poster description.

> It's kind of confusing because most of the dialogue points to Kotoyuki using normal means to court her

Yes, he did (unlike the previous members of his bloodline who did kidnapped the previous chosen girl, Suzutani Mayumi) I think they really like each other, but they are both also doing it out of obligation: Kotoyuki has the duty to marry into the special bloodline (Hinako does no have ABO blood), and Hinako to help pay off her father's debts. However, her tumour and the drugs make her bipolar, and the other part of her doesn't want to get married or "be like her mother" which she hates. Even in the Fox Wedding ending, she is still struggling in the after credits.

>In the fox wedding ending? Isn't it possible that "disappeared" just refers to the idea that she was spirited away by a fox?

In any one ending. The poster is from the reality, the "default" future, the premonition that came to be in the school chalkboard. The game is a flashback and the future changes depending on what Hinako does in it (taking more pills, not taking the pills, accepting or rejecting the wedding, etc.).
>>
>>722412920
more documents, some minor changes in cutscenes. true ending is the gods are fighting each other (cedar god vs kitsune god) and hinako is just a mere pawn, but with the power of friendship she kills both gods and lives with her fox arm twin in silent ebisugaoka while everybody else is deas :)

There are many new documents that expand on the folklore and the story of the town, as well as the intentions of certain characters, revelations and the past lineage of the husband, how the two gods came to be.
The gameplay is basically the same, but the new documents reveal much more of the story.

Honestly, it's a pain to play the game multiple times, but watching only the endings won't provide enough information about what really happened in the game, you will be in the dark about a lot of things, for that you need to search and read the new documents.

The problem is that the trauma that is being depicted is relatable to a very, very small minority of people.
>>
>>722414184
The writing is extremely on the nose. Nothing is implied or left up to interpretation. If you pay attention in SH2, you start to realize that James isn't the default "good" protag. But the only people who will notice it are the ones reading the signs and paying attention. f constantly shows the player how terrible her father is in the most comical way. I can only guess why this happened is because criticizing Japanese culture by native Japanese people is frowned upon by huge business. She also has this bizarre hatred towards her mother, who's only protected her. The worst part is that she knows she has these dumb feelings, says they're wrong, but continues to hold onto them.

The game would be better if you didn't have to play it multiple times to understand everything. There is a lot of crucial information that you only get from new documents and rooms, and only watching the endings is not enough. If you only played it once, you would not know the story of Kotoyuki, his family curse and obligations, Hinako special blood (that's why she is chosen), the previous "sacrifice" (Mayumi), Hinako mother's illness, her father's past and story, how the sacred tree religion was created, how the Inami religion was created and corrupted, the gas, the fox curse, origin of the drug, Shu and more.

The story is very interesting and well done, but you need to get every detail to see the big picture. They streamlined some aspects of the Otherworld for repeated playthroughs, but I don't think this will be enough to encourage repeated play and most players will only once and get the superficial story of the game.

For this to work, they should have made many more significant changes on future playthroughs, such as introducing a new character's point of view, new maps, skip some areas entirely (they basically did this with some otherworld parts) and new routes, similar to how Nier did it.

But I liked the game and the story (besides the gauntlets). If it wasn't tied to the Silent Hill name, maybe people wouldn't be so harsh when judging it. I just wish they had thought more carefully about how to disseminate information about the story and how to implement multiple endings without players having to reload or going trought the same gameplay again.

That's just how brand recognition works. If they named the game something like kitsune no yomeiri, it would have never gotten the attention it did.

if it wasn't tied to the Silent Hill name, people wouldn't have played it. It'd be another forgotten complete flop like Slitterhead

Can we talk about how fucking AWFUL the enironmental design is. The Otherworld is a fucking embarrassment and the town somehow manages to be more visually dull and boring than Genericville USA, and they make you backtrack thru it like FIVE FUCKING TIMES per playthrough.

She tries to escape her destiny, but if she doesn't and keep taking the pills, she has a mental breakdown and kills Kotoyuki and her father at the wedding.
Her default future self may have run away before the wedding, as there is a missing person poster stating that she is missing and was last seen wearing her school uniform. She is also stated as missing on the school chalkboard in the second playthrough. However, Kotoyuki may have kidnapped her because she was unwilling to marry, as the previous chosen girl was kidnapped and this also would fit the "fox wedding" folklore.
>>
>>722417827
The difference is that in old SH games you get full plot in a single playthrough.
SH:f leaves you in "what the fuck was this game about" state when credits roll.
