What went so fucking wrong?
>>729470692Trying to make a remake of a period piece. I'm not calling Silent Hill 2 "Citizen Kane," but trying to remake SH2 is comparable to trying to remake Citizen Kane.
>sold better than the original>definitive version of the game, improves upon the original by pretty much every metric>beloved entry in the franchise giving it a second life (which will lead to more games and movie adaptations, thus bringing more fans into the series)I mean if you think that stellar success means that something "went wrong" then yeah by this logic it flopped horribly and is already forgotten
>>729470692just pretend the original game doesn't exist and it's a good action horror game
>>729470829>the original will still be spoken about for another 20 years>the remake is already forgottenFinancial success is more of a function of cult-hype and marketing than quality.
>>729470805I understood you.
>>729471325>the original will still be spoken about for another 20 yearsaside from a bunch of old farts on reddit literally nobody was talking about it, zoomers wouldn't even know what the fuck is silent hill if you old farts kept your mouths shut>the remake is already forgottenso forgotten that OP has to make a daily meltie thread about it, yep>Financial success is more of a function of cult-hype and marketing than quality.strange way of saying "my game has flopped but it's not important because *random asspull or a reason* and it still has cultural imp-ACKK"
>>729470829>and is already forgottenYes.
>>729470692Mentally ill millennials
>>729470692Woke things like toning down the women (Mary and that one who looks like David Duchovny).Very mid game that's forgettable.
some things definitely went wrong. overall i would say that every complaint i heard about the game was legitimate, but the game is severely underrated as a result. what the game does well absolutely counter-balances what it did wrong to make an overall great experience and the nay-sayers do pretty much nothing but nit pick it while ignoring its strengths
>>729470692Literally everything:>UE5 slop>OTS action garbage>DEI trash>Westoid / Slavnig de-make cancer
>>729471619fucking, did Brianna Wi write this.
>>729470692Nothing, it's goodNot as good as the original which is still one of my favorite games of all time, but I enjoyed it
bloober teamthey are shaping up to be the new bluepoint>0 creative ability>0 technical skill>hire their studio out to DEmake existing and loved games>games are well received because they have better graphics than the originalsgraphics are all that matters
>>729471670>like David Duchovny

>>729472836P16 g2 128gb of ddr5 and an Nvidia ampere 5000 12gb of vramIt's worth $7.7k USD on discount
>>729470692Not much, judging by audience and critic scores.The game was a major success, thrust Silent Hill back into the spotlight, and delivered on the promises that were made while also shutting up the doubters.Is it perfect? No. Is it better than the original? Depends on what matters the most to you. I think the real problem is, the original game is not available. There's a reason the HD collection was what it was, it's because they can't sell the original game anymore. Konami can't/won't pay what they have to pay to make the original game available. It's got to be some sort of licensing nightmare, there's no question about it.
what a tard
I'm just glad there's almost always an SH2 thread, that gives me an excuse to post this amazing game that I love. Silent Hill has joined the pantheon of gaming legends in being a series that successfully pulled off a good remake that gives new life to their aging/dead franchise.

>>729470829>definitive version of the gameRidiculous thing to say considering it's not the same game.>beloved entry in the franchiseBeloved by people that were not there for the original and created by the people that had nothing to do with the original work. It's licensed fanfic.It is what is is anon. No need to cope. It will always be a modern version of something from a different time just like anything else that's remade or remastered.
>>729473121What is it?
>>729471693damn you managed to get a clip on your 1060ti thats impressive
>>729473495uoh
>>729473403>Ridiculous thing to say considering it's not the same game.yeah, it's not the same game because it's orders of magnitude a better video game than the clunky turd that is the originalall the other qualites of the original game were preserved and that's what makes this game actually good, except now it also plays like a video game designed for people who have a functioning brain>Beloved by people that were not there for the original irrelevantthe original did it's thing and old farts pushed it into mainstream because they couldn't shut up about it for oncemost zoomers were in daddy's balls when this game dropped btw, it's not like we have access to time machines you mongoloid retard>No need to copexactly, hence why all the "it flopped" and "what went wrong" posts are so laughable and pathetic to look at because they are totally detached from reality
>>729470692>Making a remake of the first game nowNothing?
>>729473981That is NOT a good thing. Literally no one wants these Polak vatnigs to rape SH1, the best game in the series.Verification fucking NOT required.
>>729474061You literally shitpost SH2 every single day
>>729473968>yeah, it's not the same gameAnon, that's where the whole discussion ends. Silent Hill 2 Remake is its own thing, and that's that. It wouldn't even exist without the original and wouldn't even have this fanfare without it. Whether you like the original or not doesn't matter. And if bait posts get to you, you might just need some time off /v/.
>>729470692nortubel tier remake
>>729474206Incorrect. I don't "shitpost". I provide information, have conversations, and debate.

>>729474350Nonsense. Personally seen you seethe in SH2 threads for a year straight.
I got the Silent Hill 2 OST on vinyl for Christmas and I got goosebumps brosI've listened to the soundtrack dozens of times but that vinyl shit is no joke. Unbelievable. It's transcendent.
>>729474419>SH2 threadsDon't try to standardize SH2 DEI-make into "the" SH2 now, buster.
>>729472570Who are you trying to fool? I run 5 year old hardware and I got pretty solid performance. I mean, it's a 2080 Ti, but that's not much better than any other ~$300 card in 2025
>>729470692Eh, it was alright, not as bad people here make it out to be, nowhere near as good as the original. I'd say worth a playthrough if you already played the original a hundred times. I'm curious what they'll do with SH1 since I like that one the most. >>729470805Didn't they actually try to remake Citizen Kane at some point
>>72947476830fps at 1080p using DLSS ain't my idea of "solid" in 2025.

>>729470829>bringing more fans into the seriesThis is virtually never a good thing
>>729470692Nothing. It was good.
>>729475046My visual and performance was better than Playstation and that's all that really matters to me since that's the baseline for gaming
>>729475046nta but I get 120fps 4k with a 3070ti ? and that cost what, 300$ today?
>>729474768cunt
>>729475614>laptop GPUOH NONOONONO AAHAHAHAHAHAYou get what you fuckin' deserve
>he thinks a fucking Thinkpad is gonna run this game just because it costs a lot and has MAXIMUM GIGABYTESHoly shit, what a retard.
