I think its pretty good overall. The endgame bit after the final dungeon is way too combat heavy, and the fact that the game locks all the alternate endings to NG+ is really annoying since it doesn't even give you a new boss or something to justify it. But the aesthetic is superb and I love Hinako as a main character.

it's not a soul game, it's just more action focused, people forgot what action in games is by saying "soul" all the time even when it doesn't fit, even the developers of the game told people to stop doing that kek
It's not a main title though so it's normal it's a bit different

>>740302539
the game is far less "feminist" (I don't know if it's the right term) than people here make it so, especially if you do the final ending.
It's more a story about wanting to control your own life (no matter if it's the influence of society, family, friends or literal evil gods), the antagonist of the game is in the same situation too.

I didn't hate it. I ended up giving it 7/10. A lot of that is aesthetics, Im just in love with how the game looks. Its better after they toned down the end game enemy gauntlet with a patch. Its no masterpiece but I expected less.

I still wish they would stop plastering the Silent Hill name on everything. "The franchise" was dead for 10 years and it should have stayed that way.

I mean if you want one closer to the original tone there's the remake of 2 and the game releasing this year also seems closer to that even if it's in first person, if anything they give you a lot of choice, and there's probably a more traditional game on the way in addition to the remake of 1

>>
>>740301815
The only real flaw this game has is that the best moments are locked behind NG++ and 90% (not an exaggeration) of the players never played past the first playthrough.
That's a serious design flaw. However, the story is exceptional once you have all of the context from additional playthroughs. Imo, it's better than 2.
>>
>>740304338

To be fair even this is kinda rare for modern VNs. They typically only have one canon route while the others are spinoffs. But r07 is a boomer who writes multi-episode VNs that you have to read all of to understand the plot and it's even worse in video game translation since it takes too many resources to make completely original assets to justify NG++++ playthroughs.

They should have gone the fatal frame 2 route where you can reload a clear file to specific chapters and finish new sidequests before jumping straight to the new ending.

Naughty.

>>740305015
That's not a twist it's just one of the bad endings. You need to clear the game 3 times to see the real one.
>>
>>740305019
It helps contextualize the idea of the overlapping spheres/Matroyshka doll nature of Silent Hill and how it ties into collective consciousness.

In the United States when they go to the lower levels they encounter the Red God, in Japan they encounter Inari-san and other assorted Japanese dieties. It also generally gives more impact to Dahlia's drug and the effect it had outside Silent Hill.
>>
>>740305231
she's in her 20s during the entire game including the other ending. the only difference between each ending are her choices and being on drug or not
if you think about it, Hinako basically was living with her parents doing nothing for years after her going to school beside doing drugs with her childhood best friend.
>>
I liked it, and I think the theme it revolves around is good. But then again I'm not seething over women 24/7 so that maybe the reason for it.
>>
>>740305238
>>740305107
The drugs the space boy used where Claudia flowers right? That does attach to the lore and you can argue implications based on ending one.

The religion ehh.
The way silent hill perceptions work ehh (though I always wanted "you see them as momsters?" Line to be real)
>>
>>740305343
Hinako is a terrible person, however I lover her she's a great protagonist. I genuinely don't understand the hate for this schizo psycho killer femcel other than it was a pointless casualty of the culture war.
>>
>>740305238
>>740305408
one note I believe also says that the religion of that village started due to a foreigner trying to spread his faith and it mixing with local culture, it's probably the same "faith" which ended up making the religion seeing in the first game, it just mutated with time and barely anything was left by the time of the game

>>740305458
Thats a good point, the mixing of culture faith and time passing is very ryukishi btw.

>>740305346
Chuds see the initial hinako stuff but they dont understand the implications revealed by playing the game. (The males are also dealing with it. Its not rly a patriarchy thing unless you argue marriage/partnership is patriarchal. Etc.) Also hinako isnt really good, most the characters are not great. The obvious bad guy father is actually not that bad too etc.


>>740305231 what specifically is the twist after ending 3 again?

>>740305660
There is only two likable characters in the entirety of SH - Harry and Heather. The rest are all mind broken unlikable people.

>compelling incredibly atmospheric intro goes down the shitter with dumb ass chuuni superpower bullshit

>>
>>740305750
Murphy from DP also is likable since he's a grieving father who lost his child to a monster. though I read in some interview he originally was going to be much more unlikable and they got cold feet.
>>
>>740305660
Is this ever getting a PC release or is it locked to console.
>>
>>740305750
Harry himself doesn't really have a personality besides have you seen this little girl? Short black hair. He's like Silent Hill Chris Redfield.
>>
>>740305454
She's not a schizo psycho killer in the canon ending. She only turns into one if she takes the drugs.
The reason this game is actually great is that none of the characters are one-dimensionally good or bad. All of them do fucked up shit including Hinako, but none of them are irredeemable and there isn't one single villain responsible for everything.
Even her abusive father gets humanized. Western devs would never dare to go that route. It's a shame gamers can't appreciate good writing because they don't pay attention and take everything at face value.
>>
>>740305872
I wonder how the remake will handles that.
the wii game version of him had more personality, but he doesn't count since he's not really a person he's just a make believe version of him following his death

The game gives you too many options to beat the shit out of everything. Once you become comfortable with the mechanics it is no longer a horror game. You just start charging enemies head on and shut everything they do down. There being less than 10 different enemy types doesn't help, and the game doesn't really throw a threatening amount of them at you at once before you become overpowered.

Silent hill has always placed the combat into the storytelling on purpose.
Hinako growing into her more aggressive self over time (or spamming pills) leads to what we see storywise.

Silent Hill f fails to be truly creepy and scary, because its just had too many things that Japanese find scary and creepy, but non-Japanese don't find creepy at all. Silent Hill 1-4 were all actually very Japanese deep down: Silent Hill was actually Buddhist hell: endless cycles of reincarnation and torture where you worked off your karmic debts, but they had a Western veneer which made it even creepier to non-Japanese because it sat in an uncanny valley: afterlife states that seemed familiar but were alien. However, without that layer of familiarness, Japanese concepts such as shared family karma (7 generations up and down bear the karma of an individual's sin) and social ostracism that Japanese actually really fall flat because no foreigner can actually deeply relate and be afraid of those concepts.
>>
>>740307561
the theme of the game isn't this, you would only believe so if you did the first ending

Team Silent, who made Silent Hill 1 - 4, were a Japanese team who were instructed to make a horror game that appealed to Westerners, but being Japanese, they didn't have the same cultural ideas that Westerners all known about the afterlife based on Abrahamic views of religion, and ended up creating Japanese underworlds in a Western town. The Fog World is the Hungry Ghost Realm (Preta) in the Buddhist world, where things like hungry ghosts (the fog world monsters) attack you. The Otherworld is Buddhist Hell Realm, where beings are sent for their sins. So Silent Hill, due to occult behaviour has weakened the barrier between the Human Realm and these lower realms, allowing people filled with guilt to enter. Unlike commonly-known knowledge in the West that afterlife destinations are either permanent destinations or become ghosts that haunt locations, Japanese believe in reincarnation and the cycle of Samsara, so that no afterlife state is permanent and people must work their way through every state of being to work out their karma. James, Eddie and Angela (and even Mary) are not in Silent Hill to be 'punished' for their sins, they are there to suffer through and work their karma off until they are reincarnated again to a different state, while Harry is just a tourist who has to work through Silent Hill due to the karma of being associated with Alessa.

How isn't it? It isn't even a silent hill game, nor does it play there. Silent hill is a city that has psychological effects on people with guilt and the like. No such thing in silent hill f.
>>
>i'll stick to a franchise that was ruined too
you do that crapcum drone
>>
Reincarnation and the idea of 'shared familial sins,' both of which Japanese believe in, plays a large part in the first Silent Hill, Alessa is reincarnated as Heather, and Heather has to go through the ordeals of Silent Hill not because of anything she did, but because of her previous incarnation Alessa and Alessa's familial sins which created karmic ties between them. Beings like Valtiel are not the Western 'angels' we are accustomed to, but some sort of Deva (a Buddhist god), that performs functions of maintaining the cycle of reincarnation (i.e. bringing Heather back to the cycle of rebirth/reincarnation every time she dies), while cultists use Heather as a way to summon an Asura, a 'demi-god' which is incarnated into her body. The occultists are just there to give western occult names to things that are very Buddhist. Attached is Heather wearing a shirt that says: "impermanence of affairs" one of the Buddhist three marks of existence. This unfamiliar alien world view ended up creeping westerners more than it should, since the alien concept of horror-filled cycles of endless reincarnation is something that we don't really have in Western culture.

Anyways, just reposted the disconnect between what Japanese find 'common knowledge' and what we don't find common knowledge. When they shoved Silent Hill back into Japan and the idea that the Fog World and Otherworld, that's lost on foreign audiences, who have now attached 'Western' ideas of what Silent Hill is based on what we know: Silent Hill is now your typical 'curse ancient burial grounds where people were sacrificed' not the Buddhist hell that the original Japanese writers intended it to be. Those red flowers that Japanese people find scary because they grow near gravestones have no meaning to us.

Nu uh sweaty chud. If there would be other places that are somewhat similiar then the setting should be called silent hill and it's metaphysical friends.
The game should be called
>silent hill town falls somewhere else, yet kinda similar to the silent hill town - in a metaphysical aftershock way, at least, if you know what I mean.
It's not called like that, is it? Hence It follows through logic and deduction that silent hill is the only place that has these properties.

Because this game is literally not silent hill in any shape or form. It's like a zombie game wearing the skin of a dead franchise. Also, name the supposed people who worked on the original games who liked f.

It's quite amusing when you look at it like this. Westenres like this Japanese game because they don't understand the weird Japanese ism, but when the same game is in Japan they hate it because it lacks the western story it never had and they wouldn't have liked it to have in the first place.

You could write quite a case study on this phenomenon

Based on just this id assume he works for an oil drilling company. Maybe the oil leaked and ruined the waters.
This would stop ferries and the islands main source of income, tourism.
This would then kill the island.

Hes part of killing the island then so dealing with the guilt. Its possible /he/ is why the leak happened.

Mr.Dragonmaster07 for some reason made SHf follow the "all in le head" interpretation of SH.
Basically Hinako is just indecisive about what to do with her future and the two versions of Hinako you play as are actually just weird representations of the parts of her psyche that make her lean towards one choice or the other. This fight is just the version if Hinako who wants to not grow up and friend-zone Shu until the end of time vs the version of Hinako that wants to grow up and get married to mr fox man which is the version with the fox arm.
The conclusion of this fight happening in the "all in le head" dimension is that the real hinako goes on a crazy drug-induced murder spree.
Its deeply retarded but not really as anti-marriage as people say it is.

All in the head and monsters being real humans is one of my favorite ideas about silent hill and is why im so interested in it.

The cult members are often equal to monsters and all in level head even in early silent hill games.

It is not all in her head. She's in Silent Hill (the psychic Buddhist Hell, not the town). The demons are born from her heart but they're real demons and she'll die for real. There are other people who have been trapped in that space in that town besides her.

It can work, its just that BOTH cultures need to have something that both cultures recognize and find scary. It works with Silent Hill 1 -4, The Ring and the Grudge, because we all understand how cursed items and haunted places work. It doesn't work when 2 different cultures now have 2 different ideas about the same thing. The West now understand Silent Hill as a haunted place that brings people in to punish them for their sins (and rightfully so since its the framework we understand), but to the Japanese, Silent Hill was just one of many places where the barrier to the Buddhist underworlds (Hungry Ghost World and Buddhist Hell) is weak and people are sent to work off their personal or familial karma (this falls flat on Westerners, we don't understand why we should suffer so badly in the afterlife for parents and even children's fault) Japanese afterlife's focus on sin based on shared familial karma/shame while our systems are built around individual internalized guilt. Koreans are better at making things that cater to the West and East at the same time (music, movies), because their culture has been assimilated Western culture far more than the Japanese.

>the rich older handsome chad that wants to marry you was actually the good guy
>the nice guy beta best friend was secretly evil and manipulative

I always find it interesting how stories made by and for women seem to absolutely despise passive men. They always get writen to be evil, liars and cowards instead of an actual good person that just happens to have some confidence issues. Sometimes i feel like women deep down just straight up hate the 80% of men they dont see as potential partners or paternal figures.

there was plenty of effort in f, the 2 remake and even the free game which wasn't very good but still.
the only truly bad project they did was that weird 3D show backed by JJ abram
yes even the movie wasn't all bad
They probably shotgunned multiple type of project to see which one worked the best and gave full freedom to anyone involved (which is pretty rare to see with big studios). though supposedly they also are making a new game by the big K themselves

rinko was a jealous narcissistic cunt and sakuko a schizophrenic autistic retard, both taking offense by innate shit. shu was a great bro but too much of a passive cuck, unlike fox max who just doing what he's supposed to and want to do.
however, hinako is stuck going forward thinking that these issues are her fault, like thinking not dating shu might hurt rinko cuz she liked him, so by hinako not dating him while he likes her, you're hurting him (the overt reason, the actual reason being like "so why the fuck haven't you fucked off so he would've had forgot you and I could date him instead you fucking retard, how could he even like you when you're just a disgusting poor, I'm clearly superior by even tolerating and being nice to your dog of a person"), and abandoning sakuko (because her retarded ass don't understand that "I'll never abandon you" don't literally mean that she'll will be psychically right next to you until you both are ash so you're a fucking traitor that must've been talking behind herback and plotting to get her and not in the meaning off "I have no reasons to turn you down because you're a schizo from a weird house and clearly act like a autist, I'll be your friend and be there for you until I have to get married and live my life, literally being prohibited from ever getting to see you again, not because I wanted to, just like you will at some point"), and cucking shu (they likethe status quo and think, and do want to take the next step, they're just cowards thinking that the other person might not want the same and ruin their thing, at the same time this other person is just as nice and handsome, and might be the best choice in the end).

>tl;dr
they have their issues just like any friendship, she just exacerbates them in her head due to this anxiety of having to "abandon" them, which in turn are made into tulpas due to this drug and and egregore shit going on

This retarded fucking meme again. Team Silent members said openly in interviews that SH4 was always meant to be a Silent Hill game. After the development of SH2, Konami wanted to turn the series into a yearly franchise, so they forced Team Silent to split into two teams. Team-A & Team-B. Team-A was meant to create a traditional sequel aka SH3 and Team-B was meant to create an experimental sequel and generally find ways to move the series forward with new ideas

Which is not enough. The games are still outsourced and soulless. Bring back Team Silent or create a new one. Or at least outsource the games to Japanese studios. The decline in quality is still noticeable.
