What does a Silent Hill game need in order to be a "Silent Hill game" besides taking place in New England?
be made by team silentA Picasso can only be made by Picasso.
>>722632149Arguably a connection to the cult that created a lot of the mess that happens in the gameshttps://youtu.be/Gu9zoiqdTwc mentions a couple of other things.
>>722632149Me liking itHope this helps
>>722632149well being in silent hill or truly related to it is an important start
>>722632149>in silent hill>connection to the cult>similar visual design to the first 3 games>similar combat to the first 3 games>has to be goodlast one is most important
>>722634150next it has to be developed by team silent. and probably team silent in those same conditions, though maybe they'd pull off some kino today
>>722632149A foundational connection to the Order or the general mythology surrounding the Order. Not some random ass game set in other countries with that retarded as fuck "Silent hill phenomenon" bullshit hallucinating fog as an excuse to pretend it's a Silent Hill game
>>722632149>environmental storytelling>subtlety and inferences >decent cast and voice acting>diverse enemies
>>722634340>decent voice actingWell, guess there's been 1 real Silent Hill game, and it didn't release until the mid 2000s.
>>722634385Downpour had decent voice acting, the dude playing Murphy screamed like his soul was on the line
>>722632149not be inspired by fucking sonic unleashed
>>722632149The original games aren't even Silent Hill games really. I think as time has advanced new technologies have elucidated "Silent Hill" as a concept more than they could in the 90s with limited resources.
>>722632149A classic survival horror game, made by Team-Silent.Here's the SH PC Guide + Pastebin:https://pastebin.com/uf5XhyXz
>>722634820You're overthinking it. The first three games worked off a simple premise and notRE gameplay that at most had different plot reasons for materializing. How the fourth (and cancelled fifth) changed the mechanics up or how other developers imitated the concept in their own warped view are after the fact.
>>722632149Good storytelling?
>>722632656This. There's never going to be another Silent Hill
>>722632149Without the town and world shift to the other world or dimension it really does not feel like it should even be a Silent Hill game to me. And preferably this shift should be done subtly. Not like from the movie. Although I understand why they would like to depict it in that way instead. Because its flashy and will wow the casuals. This is one important thing but an even more important thing needed is the sound and music. Without that I really fail to see how you have a SH game. Maybe it was ok and they could get away with a few games not being in SH itself. Maybe they could explain it away with oh the town power or cult magic or some shit. But the successive games never really explained this properly or even established it as a definitive thing. SH is a series that really should have just stayed dead. They just keep raping it with new games having nothing to do with the old ones. Its a cringe self insert series where devs can just insert any agenda and story they want as long as its "2deep4u" and has enough horror in it. The series is cringe and a far departure from what it once was.
>>722634385silent hill 3 had good voice acting

Are there people who actually like Homecoming?

>>722632149A classic horror adventure game with survival horror mechanics being baked by weirdness of westaboo Japs. Ah, yeah, It should be connected to the town Silent Hill of course.
>>722632149Draw heavily from David Lynch and Stephen King and have a ton of references to 50s, 70s and 80s movies and english horror literature.
1. No blacks or minorities of any kind in the game2. Christian conservative message3. Fan service, sexualised female character options and no ugly looking foid characters 4. Good music

>>722632149Proper remake of Silent Hill 1 would look like this:0. Made by original Team Silent;1. Early 00's CGI-style visual style in other words an upgraded og artstyle - a slight puppetry of the character models is vital for this game;2. Cinematic camera angles, just like in the original game (I don't mind a 3rd person mode for the second playthrough as a bonus, though);3. Expanded Cybil, preferably scenario b like in Resident Evil 2, with minor expansion in the main plot, just to save the secluded feeling of an original game;4. The Characters should be true to og themselves. E.g. Harry Is almost Brandon Frazer from The Mummy Returns, but slightly broken and has no military background.
>>722632149>Not made in UE5>Should be made with the premise of "Silent Hill is a physical place that attracts broken and sinful people to it in order for them to atone for their sins or die in the process.", like Team Silent actually wanted to do following 2, not "It's just about this spooky child sacrificing cult, now also add a katana and an machine gun">Cult influences should be present, but not part of the direct narrative >The combat of the 2 remake is perfectly fine to keep, but needs continued polish to remove jank.>Varied top tier monster design>Multiple main characters could explore different variations of the town, changing atmospherically and aesthetically from person to person>Subject matter should be actually mature >Dialog and voice acting needs to be written and directed by native English speakers so that that the "No you don't understand...the dialog is supposed to be bad on purpose" arguments can finally die>There needs to not be a dedicated randomized pursuer slop enemyI actually have fanfiction tier character outlines for this game, but it will never be made.

>>722643472its loser you brainless mutantLoose as in your pants are too loose to stay on without a fucking beltLose as in you arent winning the game because you lack the mental capacity to beat your opponent
>>722632149It's gotta copy twin peaks and Jacobs ladder
>>722643835>mf just called himself a loserлoх
>>722642856>t. shitlennial goycattle that bought the western titles mald elsewhere
>le team silentlmao Short Message's primary creative staff were old Team Silent people
>>722642856The only one that mattered was Toyama and he left after the first game. I don't think he's all that great but he was clearly the only person on the team with any kind of creative vision.
>>722642371>Proper remake of Silent Hill 1 would look like this:But then why not just play the original game? What you're describing is a glorified remaster.
>>722632656fpbpsame way metal gear is nothing without kojima
When SH1R happens I don't how but they need to do this shot.
>>722632149Autistic Silent Hill sound effects.
>>722645660>Evil Dead 2 treatment is a remasterRetard. I played the shit out of the original game.
