>try a remake>flop>try a traditional japanese one>flop>try a more experimental western one>flopIs it safe to assume Silent Hill is dead again?
yeah no one really caresand most people that played the remake experiencing the game for the first time i know gave it a 7/10 topsthe series was never all that good
The 2 remake and F are the best selling games in the series. But they went too far with the yearly releases, there was no hype for this.
Silent Hill is for white people these last 2 games have killed the series
how the fuck do the faces look worse than Silent Hill 3, a 23 year old game?
>>748358458>The 2 remake and F are the best selling games in the seriesThat doesn't really mean much when the market is so much bigger than it was in the PS2 and PS3 days, and the games are also costing a lot more to make.
>>748358243>judging the series on the shitty remakeanyone who hasn't played the original games doesn't get an opinion on their quality
>>748358562quite sure it's the skintone
I've forgotten what "flop" means.
They could just accept that Silent Hill is not a mainstream franchise anymore and it wont make Resident Evil numbers. Instead they could keep working on smaller games to rebuild the fanbase.Good luck convincing the shareholders of that, though
Silent Hill was never good. It always got mogged by Resident Evil.
>>748358706played the original the remake is goodhating the remake is for niggers and schizos
>>748358624>and the games are also costing a lot more to make.To be fair, that's not our problem, if they can't manage to keep costs under control, even when developing a game in fucking taiwan and japan, where the average wage of someone like this is like 30k per year, I just don't even know how to tell them that their business model is broken beyond belief.
>>748358780It means any game that doesnt sell as much as Elden Ring.Or any game i dont likeOr any game for a console i down own
>>748358784Square Enix tried that for a bit and the findings were that sales were commensurate to budget, so titles were still failing and proportionally losing the same amount.
>>748358562>Silent Hill 3
>>748359123I hope you were trying to prove my point, because you did
>>748358817Disagree, but either way you cannot judge Silent Hill 2 on it because it's substantially differentIf you played the original I guess I withdraw my complaint (but not my disagreement)
>>748359262Oh you're one of those>gets BTFO'd, keep digging

>>748359019That's because Square Enix don't have any clue what the fuck they're doing, and haven't since the merger
>>748359665They were travesties too, but point taken, the games have gotten pretty bad too

>>748360231Horror is so big you have whole fandoms build around people who only ever watched some of the numerous horror games.Seriously if you ever stop living in your mass marketed AAA bubble then you will see a forest of horror games and they just keep coming every month, every week. And we have halloween coming up too.
>>748358152I just don't want to play the 11th sequel of a franchise. I'm not interested. There are no stakes to the story and very little original or innovative with the gameplay at that point. I can make a small exception for anthology series like Final Fantasy, and to a lesser extent Zelda, but even those I haven't played in several generations. I don't care about GTA 6 either. I might get excited for TES 6, maybe, but possibly not, depending on how it shapes up. There is a reason trilogies are a thing, three variations on the same setting and idea are enough. You can maybe stretch it out to five. After that I just don't care.
>>748358152Remake had more players and sold more copies than the entire franchise combined. I don't think it's a flop.

>>748360420>I just don't want to play the 11th sequel of a franchise. I'm not interested.I don't see this attitude very often but it's you're not wrong to feel that way. Even if the games were still of a high quality, it's time to stop already.

>>748358152Genuine retard. F was the experimental one that literally adds dark souls combat and vn quirks to a survival horror, Townflop is pure western slop.
>>748358152>the sh2 remake schizo is back
>>748358624>That doesn't really mean much when the market is so much biggerBut the genre is still an extreme niche. If you're not called Resident Evil you're not getting millions of sales. And Resident Evil isn't a horror game, let's face it.
>>748361190more like>some shill is backthe only retards who give a fuck about sales numbers and so on. are shills

>>748358152The Silent Hill phenomenon is retarded and they really need to let this concept die. Just make a new game in silent hill with the cult trying to summon their demon god but in HD. Or just do a proper remaster collection of 1-4
What is even the appeal of this series? Horror games especially are basically entirely dominated by low budget indie games. The last bit of market share is sucked up by resident evil. I don't feel like there's any particular niche that silent hill fills that people would actually pay for
>>748361261the only reason resident evil keeps selling is their fanbase is full of retards who would buy shit in a box if the box said "capcom"
>>748361261>But the genre is still an extreme niche.This is hyperbolic, anon.It might not be the most popular genre but it's far from an extreme niche.
silent hill peaked with silent hill 2 30 years ago and you just can't imitate a masterpiece like that ever again, I'm sorry. But let this be a lesson to be learned.
>>748361597forgot to say perchance
>>748361513When it was new and good (over 2 decades ago) the games were generally regarded as the scariest horror games. But after the PS2 the series couldn't evolve or find a new niche like RE so a long parade of garbage titles came out and the series died. Konami is trying to resurrect the series they killed because pachinko must have become less profitable but they have no idea why people liked the games to begin with
>>748361691>evolvefuck off and play a different franchise retard
>>748361513There is actually no appeal anymore. If it's not the OG Team making it, it's not worth it
>>748360778>wants to get married and have kids>wokelol
>>748358624>and the games are also costing a lot more to make.Yeah, but it's not like these games have actual AAA budget. Konami seemed to consider crossing 2 millions for both f and 2r a success, and 2r is at 5 million already.
>>748358152people really and i mean really exaggerate how popular this series was at is peak. and i say this as someone who has played almost every silent hill ever made. The only time silent hill was a franchise Konami was happy with during the supposed peak of silent hill sales wise was silent hill 1. Online darling silent hill 2, sold les than silent hill 1.
>>748358152SH2 Remake was a success and Konami immediately greenlit more remakes from the devs
>>748361793She actually wants to decide for herself.It's a feminist game
>>748361756I like the classic games and tank controls but most people don't and won't buy a game with them. Konami is a big company that wants large profits so they aren't going to release a classic style game again. Just more TLOU over the shoulder slop
>>748361756He's kind of right. It's just been developer after developer with no clue what they're doing trying to recapture Silent Hill 2.
>>748358624both remake and F are clearly meant to appeal to a broader market. While Townhall feels like am actual survival horror game with weird combat and silly management, which i like but also you know it's niche
>>748358706They're the same game. And SH2R feels incredibly dated gameplay and level design-wise compared to something like the Resident Evil remakes
>>748361931thats niceif i want more silent hill i want more silent hilli dont want silent hill to be turned into amnesia or gran turismo because retards like you want it to evolve
>>748358152In the last decade has there been a single successful game with a black protagonist?

>>748361947I don't think I've seen a worse post on this website
>>748358784the only time silent hill was a mainstream franchise was the late 90s and very early 2000s. There is this word nostalgic lie that silent hill used to be this major franchise for years and years. Its was always niche, only time is was mainstream was they're first game, every game since then sold less. Remake and f both benefit from heacy nostalgia and a much bigger market. A good silent hill game is unfortunate but a well selling one
>>748361171Townfall feels like a classic SH game except in first person. Bad combat, no enemy variety, repetitive puzzles and samey locations, it's all there.
>>748358152yeah how about trying to make a good game?
>>748362034Why won't outlast devs make more games? the second game was kinda weird but they didn't have to make the coop slop...

>>748361979>if i want more silent hill i want more silent hillYou haven't gotten more Silent Hill since 4, and even that one is debatable.>i dont want silent hill to be turned into amnesia or gran turismo because retards like you want it to evolveI agree with what you're saying. I hate people who think a series they don't like needs to change to be something else, just so they can feel included.But Silent Hill has the unique problem of every single retard developer it's been given to trying to make Silent Hill 2 again even though they never understood it in the first place. That goes for the people who made the remake as well.Honestly the best thing for Silent Hill is to just die. Nobody knows what the fuck they're doing with it.

>>748358562Never thought I would see Lebron James starring a SH game
>>748358562>60 IQ stare
Townfall is not an earnest attempt at a Silent Hill game or even a good video game. It was funded by degenerate, mentally ill, anti-white racists at Annapurna who want more black heroes in the media.
>>748358152Didn’t Townfall come out hours ago? Why would it have reached its all time peak before the weekend?
Should I start it or refund it?
>>748362294All I see are blonde chads in leather jackets, hot slutty vampire bitches and engines that make good techdemos
>>748358152Just turn Silent Hill into a Resident Evil clone but with sadder stories. Townfall uses classic SH game design and it's a fucking slog.
>>748362247SH4 while generally awful to actually play is the last game that actually feels like a Silent Hill game
>>748358152I never understood the silent hit franchise. I visited an internet cafe in my village that had Silent Hill f and tried it for an hour it was the most boring nonsensical non horror dogshit nothingburger game ive ever seen. I was stunned, how do people even like this? Then i remember it was made by Japanese and it all made sense.
Yeah. Silent Hill was best when it was a survival-horror game. Then Japan finished with it, they sold it to Westerners who made it into a generic dumb zombie FPS game series.

>>748364075>>748364194Defense force in action
NTA but that's simple, because there needs to be some temporal implications for their marriage to have any weight in the story. If they were high school sweethearts in their early 20s and only dating, several key plot elements would have no impact: why would James go back to Silent Hill for a girlfriend? Why would we assume they "were happy once" and be shocked that James murdered Mary if he was abusive the entire relationship? His claim of "I wanted my life back" would have no weight because bruh, just leave your girlfriend, it's not like you're married.SH2's story only works if they're middle-aged. No, I don't accept the theory that James is 29 in the original release
>>748358562Lazy devs don't even bother with textures nowadays.

>>748364194>He's an independent safety inspector that was hired to review the oil platform not some Nigerian immigrant looking for gibmedats.There was zero need to insert a black man into 1990s Scotland, but I guess it's better than Still Wakes the Deep having multiple adult blacks with full Scottish accents on a 1975 oil rig

>>748364051well yes and no. there is B-movie horror sure. but there are well made high budget horror movies too. same for games. it’s just the genre of horror typically doesnt do well for the common masses compared to dudebro action movie / shooter game. know what i’m saying?
>>748358562what's with da beane
>>748358152It's safe to assume the only reason Silent Hill 2 was popular was because it was an early PS2 title that didn't suck dick and was the only Survival Horror title on the system for a while making it more popular than it would have been if released later in the systems life cycle.Silent Hill, like Dead Space, was never a massive seller on the whole.That said, Steam Charts for single player multiplatform games is one helluva dumb ass metric.

devs need to realize, gamers don't want to play as black people end of story. Put a cute white girl in it and it will sell millions, it's not that hard to figure out.

Maybe this is very chud interpretation, but desu I think playing a black man adds to the horror element slightlyIt feels innately wrong for you to be there. You feel unwelcome not because the people are unwelcoming toward you or racist or whatever, but because you know you don't belong there, on a fundamental level

>>748358152Because Silent Hill is only the trilogy + The Room. Literally everything else has been cashing-in on the name and has no reason for existence.
>>748372064The room was a cash in.
>>7483720642>1>F>3>4
>>748372064nothing has a reason for existence
>>748372004Hinako is a very compelling character. Probably the most multi faceted like James. Too bad her game is garbage.
>>748372004based
>>748358152>Blacks complain about lack of inclusion>Don't support one of the few games that has black main character >Whites don't buy it cause they see negro and don't want to play Silent Hill: Ghetto Editionlol. they're fucked
>>748358152>runs like shit>runs like shit>runs like shitHmmmmm, why is nobody buying our poorly optimised games during the rampocalypse?
all we wanted was PT but everyone treats kojima like shitthis is why silent hill deserves to fail over and over again.
>>748358152>Steamcharts over a fucking Singleplayer game
>>748372961yeah because it's a good indicator that people are not buying nor playing.you're just upset because your negro indie horror slop is flopping
>>748373068honestly buying single player games at launch seems fucking retardednot that i'm paying 1 cent for this shit anyway
>>748365371they don't know lmaooooo
honestly buying single player games seems fucking retardedi'll just watch my favorite streamer play it
>>748371914Abysmal
>>748370520From what I gathered, not really. It has fog, le trauma, and the mandatory tacked on Dog and UFO endings, but if it didn't have Silent Hill in the title, it'd just be another generic horror game.
>>748358562>They hired Drexel from Rekieta lawWhat were they thinking?
>>748373270>watching people play videogamesyou also watch people fuck your girlfriend right?
>>748373697Yes, I am a cuck, I like when people fuck on my bitch
>>748358152Can't believe it's even worse than those twoHow low can you go
>>748373784just what i expected from people who watch streamers and streamers
>>748373068>yeah because it's a good indicator that people are not buying nor playing.Nope steam will NEVER be a good indicator
>>748373896I'm driving an all chrome Maybach>>748373930It's a good indicator for me. PC is all that matters. Console niggas are beyond cucked and their opinions on literally anything gaming related don't matter. They can make these shit games console exclusive for all I care.
>>748362552sneed it
>>748374013>I'm driving an all chrome Maybachi dont know what teh fuck that is
>>748360778yeah idk what people are smoking. this is the ugliest type of japanese phenotype, the gook facethere is FAR better asian phenos out there
>>748358152silent hill has always been a shitty niche series in the shadow of resident evil
>>748374117>kid learns people have different tastes
>>748374013>It's a good indicator for meYou don't matter your opinion is meaningless
>>748358152Perhaps Capcom should acquire the IP?
>>748374173i rather have a franchise dead than raped over and over againtoo bad , both franchises have been raped, resident evil is the most raped and shittiest one now
>>7483739306 million PLAYERS baybeee!
>>748373930the game has 7k players, even if you assume that is only 25%, the total would still be 28k players, which is abysmal stop coping, no one wants to play as a nigger in scotland
>>748374287perhaps you should kill yourself
>>748360778You shut your mouth
>>748374287not in a million years
>>748374245You're just saying that because you're a console baby and I've upset you with a fat trvth nvke. PC gamers always on top and the most informed.
>>748374334>I'll keep making retarded assumptions lol retard, not everyone that buys a game is playing all at the same time. Concurrent players doesn't mean all players you twat
>>748374287crapcum haven't made a good game in 20 yearsso no
>>748374380>PC gamers always on top and the most informed.lol the top played steam games disprove that, just say you're poor like most PC fags
>>748374436yeah faggot, this is the only game where people will wait 2 weeks to play it instead of doing it at release
>>748374484>poor like most PC fagsOur PC's cost more than your console. Does this upset you so much that you're projecting your poorness onto us?>>748374436>peak player counts on release don't matter! stop it! my beloved negro indie horror slop!
>>748374482
>>748374585>Our PC's cost more than your consolelol most steamies have shitty PCs weaker than consoles
>>748374235no I know people have shit taste but it's still surprising when they have REALLY shit tastes
trooncharts
>>748374731You clearly haven't seen GPU and RAM prices. Keep coping our GPU and RAM alone cost more than your console with no games.>>748374842Another upset console gamer. SAD!
>>748358152Silent Hill Troonfall
>>748374842trooncharts for a troongame. seems fitting in my opinion.
There's nothing interesting about Silent Hill anymore. It's just a by-the-formula brand and that's exactly how Konami is treating it.We can debate whether it's woke or not woke forever, but at the end of the day it's just fucking boring
>>748375023PT died for this.
>>748374880>bro is bragging about being scammed and paying 10x the price for hardware >doesn't even addresses the original point just says something retardedlmao
>>748375073Don't remind me.
>>748375090>moves goalposts and expects me to argue it instead of making fun of your broke assCope more, brokie.
Silent Hill was always shit though.
>>748362034Yep turns out being scared and powerless isnt popular in video games. People like seeing other people scared and powerless which is why horror lets play do well.
>>748375170>moves goalpostsThe irony as thats what you exclusively were doing after you got BTFO every time. I proved steam charts aren't a good indicator and you could never recover since and just kept moving the topic
>>748375527You realize those are units and not dollars... right? Also Resident Evil 7 and Outlast are most definitely horror. That game made me shidded my pants.
>>748375023This says a lot about Silent Hill F as well in my opinion. People defending say it's great and it's popular or whatever, and I'm sure they liked it, but if it was the excellent game they say it is, wouldn't people be lining up to buy the next one?Sometimes a game's sales are a reflection of the previous games in the series, even more than a response to the game itself.There's just no excitement, and I think that's a damning indictment of Silent Hill F being>just fucking boring
>>748375739>delulu luddite sony fanboy seethesk
>>748375821To be fair Townfall is made by a developer that has never made a Silent Hill game before. Not defending F but yeah there's no correlation other than by name.
>>748362034Not a single good game. Impressive.
@748375835>y-youre a sony fanboy cause you proved me wrong that steam sharts don't matter for a franchise that sells better on Playstation lol absolutely BTFO, he can only name call now
>>748375821Then that means SH2R flopped?
>>748375957Name your top 5 horror games.
>>748375997didn't readyou're not worth arguing with, xitter nigger>inb4 he ats me again seething some more
>>748374436I also wait to play my game when I buy it, gotta let it marinate
>>748358780Mostly financial failure, or severe underperformance. There's some wiggle room for bad reception, or rejected by the audience. Flop is always relative to game budget. This is clearly a AA game. I'm estimating it's total budget to be about 25 million, inclusive of marketing. Error margin about 8 million, so still well within AA on both sides. >>748358857>>748359618It's use in shitposting and company wars of course is limitless. >for companies it means it didn't sell 3000 billionsI recall EA and Deadspace being compeltely insane with their demands here.>>748374436Concurrent players is a good proxy for well known and well advertised game launches. Good or bad word of mouth can still play a factor. Because AA is such a weird space where the top end is 50X the bottom end, there isn't a "number" that's a definitive winner. But this isn't looking good at all for the game.>>748358784>>748359670This IS a smaller game. Konami is in a rebuilding phase anon. >Square Enix If it weren't for Tim Shaffer, they'd be possibly the most cluleless people in the industry. >>748360778Cutest femcel ever!
>>748375898>To be fair Townfall is made by a developer that has never made a Silent Hill game before. Not defending F but yeah there's no correlation other than by name.It might be a different developer but it affects the perception of the brand.>>748376004>Then that means SH2R flopped?A remake is a bit different, that's a good game with a facelift. There's built in excitement.Although imo it was pretty lackluster too, and probably contributed to this result.
>>748358152I would've bought the remake if they hadn't tuned it down and uglified it for the normies.
>>748358152Remake and Jap one were not flops though, I wish they were. Townfall is a flop though
>>748376305>It might be a different developer but it affects the perception of the brand.You think Konami cares? If they cared they would have kept Kojima on PT. Konami is completely worthless now and if it wasn't for their pachinko business they wouldn't even be around anymore. If they don't course correct I see them just shutting down development of games all together and just hogging the licenses for stupid gambling machines.
>>748375821(me)And I'm not saying people lavishing praise on Silent Hill F are liars (probably some of them are kek), but sometimes you can think you love something until you just gradually realize you're not excited about it. It's a weird phenomenon but it's part of human nature.
>>748358152>Go woke>????>Anti-profit
>>748375821Why would they line up to buy the next one when the next one is a completely different game, different gameplay, different story, different aesthetic, different everything? If you loved Silent Hill F what about Townfall is going replicate that experience besides the title?
>>748375763I wouldn't consider you powerless in RE7. The family isn't much different than a Mr.X section.
>>748376546They probably care in the sense that they want to make money, but they're just completely retarded and soulless so they don't have any understanding of what would make people interested.>If they don't course correct I see them just shutting down development of games all together They basically tried that for a while, didn't they? There was a long stretch where they were making fuck all.
>>748376587But you're effectively powerless against Mr. X
@748376128>I-I d-didnt read>clearly did and thats why hes seething bro couldn't make an argument so hes just angry now
>>748358152go woke go brokelook at capcoms formula for success
>>748376702>proves me right againcheckmate, liberal.
>>748376667I don't think Konami has any teams capable of making anything good anymore. It's why they have to license out all this shit or just do remakes, they don't have any experienced teams at making real video games anymore, just pachinko
>>748360778if sh3 came out today the talk about the game would be unbearableheather literally aborts god and god is a female, this alone would be enough for the game to be ''woke''
>>748376580That kind of brand dilution is a problem as well. But I don't know about you anon, if I play a game I'm excited by, I'm more likely to pick up the next one in the series even if it looks different.I'm a logical guy, but like all humans I'm also an unga bunga who knows if Silent Hill make feel good, want more Silent Hill
>>748376753Konami is already copying Capcoms formula, that's why they have more Silent Hill remakes in the can right now, the slop machine is already running.
>>748376848Nobody would find Silent Hill 3 woke, sorry. You don't understand the people you're projecting opinions onto.
>>748376753>having a billion blind fanboys that will buy shit in a box
>>748376667Just trying to make money is not caring. They're soulless because they got rid of the soul on their own accord because they cared too much about money and didn't want the risk. They could easily hire some real talent but they're apparently incapable and are simply looking for safe no-risk money. Konami feels like they operate exclusively on a spreadsheet.
@748376756>still can't make an argument so just says "if you respond then u mad bro" response like a childlmao
>>748376753Capcom is woke you nimrod
>>748377016I won bigly; get rekt.Reply to this or your mother will die in her sleep.
>>748376004No. AA weightclass. Untested team. Konami trying to restart entire processes. Konami said it was profitable to investors. It wasn't a monster hit or anything like that.F was probably like that too, but they don't break out hard numbers. Was not a monster hit either. this game on the other hand is floundering a lot more--strictily financially. >>748376580That is a good question. Because what the FUCK is silent hill, as far as the brand? Bemani somewhat related:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xUUBl_Ey0A>>748376771The bemani team is probably the best dance rythym and music team in the entire industry, and arguably the strongest new arcade machine maker.They also have some very specific niche teams making long running,mostly JP series. They are renting much of their shit out now, and it's working a little for them.
>in light of the current situationPeople don't write like this, especially in small Scottish towns in 1996This is the game's writer reaching through them to make them be vague on purpose, and create a sense of mystery.You could say>"okay but the mystical silent hill powers which are in Scotland for some reason WANT to be vague"Well there are better ways to do it. The original Silent Hill games used redacted text to great effect. There was just a constant surreal sinisterness that is lost here.
>>748358152>remake>flopIt was a massive success, so much so that they immediately greenlit a SH1 remake. It sold way more than the og SH2 actually.
>>748358152>s0i filled looking nigger protag>giga floppawell imagine my shock
>>748377007they looked at AAA and AAA development and thought they couldn't keep up, and focused inward on Japan, arcades and especially Pachinko. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOpfORUFEpAAnd they survived long enough to get us here.>>748376928they look at capcom and think, maybe we can do that. Konami is still fucking weak in internal devleopment.>>748377416I wonder how much the unappealing protagonist contributed.
>>748371484did it?
>>748377584>And they survived long enough to get us here.That's the real disaster.
>>748358152>>try a remakeHOrrendous dodgshit demake, souless garbage slop>silent hill FHorrendous dogshit game, souless garbage slop>Silent Hill TownfallIt's alight, but the gameplay is ABYSMALL , would've been ok as a $20 dollar game not a $60-70 AAA slop game
>>748377584>I wonder how much the unappealing protagonist contributed.I'd bet a lot. Who the fuck would want to play as that?
>>748377371>game released in 2024 outsells game released in 2001, that never had a good rerelease and everybody who wants to play it emulates or buys second handSay it ain't so.
>>748377208This game is also a lot cheaper than f. It is a side project given to a smaller studio trying new things. I think it did make a profit, but not enough for Konami to try again.
>>748361401>to muchDumb turdie.
>>748377671it's $50 anon
>>748377713>write a white man>make him black >also the game is in europe btwIt's Propaganda. Blacks will never be European.
>>748377726i'm sure 99% of retards here werent born in 2001
>>748377726Plenty of games sell poorly compared to predecessors. Borderlands 4 sold like shit compared to 2 for instance. Or P3R to P3P/FES. Simply put if it is good it sells, like SH2R.
>>748361519or perhaps a simpler explanation would be that they still make good games. crazy thought, i know
>>748377630yeah
>>748377840Have you played the game? He's American. It's actually quite clever since you can figure that out based on accents if you pay attention.
>>748377640>That's the real disaster.HORROR. I feed you guys easy softballs with survived long enough and you bungle the followup. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ht4dbyPIcM
>>748362212>conclusion unrelated to the greentextNope, you're just a retard.
>>748377802I wouldn't know i got my copy for free cause i'm a reviewer. $50 is still a lot for such a crappy game, i think i had more fun with indie games like visage and look outside. Before you ask i gave it a 9/10 get fucked lmao
>>748377907how?
Why does /v/ insist SH2 remake was a flop when it sold very well and the general consensus outside of the 4chan echo chamber is that it was good? Same shit with the Dead Space remake
>>748378020>proud of his bad tasteyou're definitely a journalist.
>>748358152>Nigger protagonistSomehow worse than the feminist protagonist from F.Not to mention that game tarnished the franchise's name.
>>748378020you're the reason journos are trashed on
>>748358562
>>748375821I think F is great and I refused to buy Townfall? Wanna know why? Because Westerners can't make Silent Hill. They misunderstand it on a fundamental level. I bought Homecoming and Shattered Memories before learning that lesson.
>>748377895yeahnothing to do that in 2000, 10 people in 500 played games and now its 400 people in 500fucking retarded underagekillyourself
>>748375835Pipe down, turdie.
>>748378097i just want things for free
>>748378304You're trying to insult me with a picture of a dude that has some of the best crocs I've ever seen? Really?
>>748378020Shit taste
>nuh uh i win na na boo booBro must have autism
>>748358152OG RE trilogy mogs the fuck out of the Team Silent games.
>>748378285Again, BL4 and P3R sold worse than their 2000s equivalents.
>>748369472>>748371154so Simon dindu nuffin?fucking lmao
>>748378542I won. :D
>>748378262kek
>>748362034>horror-action: fun with actual gameplay and some scary elements>pure horror: sneak through this room while le evil creature patrols. now sneak through this room while le evil creature patrols. now turn back on the power for the elevator while avoiding le patrolling creature
>>748378590>remake that isn't a remake with less content sells lessguess not everyone is a blind fanboy
>>748358152It's been long enough with so many dogshit entries it's fair to say that I'm no longer a fan of silent hill. I'm at the point now where I would rather it just go back to being a pachinko machine ip again since it's very obvious that they really just have no idea what to do at this point>also you now remember the pure failure of the twitch """game"""
>>748378601It's the opposite. The entire game is one big guilt trip like James, except 100x worse.
>>748378857Are you talking about sh2r? Which added more bullshit yet removed the born from a wish scenario? Hmm?
>>748358706I've played the orignal and the remake and SH2 is one of the most overrated games of all time. But it's babies first plot twist so it blew a bunch of people's minds when they played it at 12 years old. Despite the fact that the gameplay is shit.
>>748362034Hahaha this one threw the jeets for a loop>but...there's zombies in those games.... it's horror....Hahaha nonwhites can't into media literacy hahaha
>>748364771>it's like they don't get their audienceOutlast fans love Trials, what the fuck are you talking about, retard? Liliya fits Outlast perfectly and Amelia is hardly a Mary Sue since she's 100% gonna get turned into a corpse or a grotesque prime asset by the time the game's over
>>748377291this is what happens in movies. Western remakes of japanese films will add an explanation for everything because the the average american needs it.
>>748378872series was done with book of bantorra or whatever the fuck the psp game was
>>748377895>>748378590And? New games don't have to universally outsell older games for the factors to be relevant.A new game outselling an old game means fuck all when the market is so much larger and the old game is heavily emulated by modern players. Sales of physical games were also limited by availability (you had to go out and find and buy them, and some were hard to find in certain regions) and they generally were not released worldwide.
>>748358624>games are also costing a lot more to makeBloober Team makes AA games and the studio that made F is a support studio most renown for developing ports and remasters of Capcom games. They aren't exactly making AAA blockbusters here; all three of these games were developed in UE5 and and they aren't long or visibly expensive games.Townfall looks like it has the lowest budget out of all three, the indie studio who are developing it made like two literal who games for Devolver before this. This is definitely their biggest project, but it obviously doesn't have a make-or-break budget like AAA. F and 2R were also relatively successful.
>>748379042>thinking the acclaim of Silent Hill 2 is all about the twistit's considered a masterpiece for a reason, and that reason isn't "wow that was so unexpected!">overratedI don't agree, but I can see why you think it given how heavily praised it is.
>>748379335You said SH2R was shit. Anon said if it was it wouldn't be a huge financial success.You said every new sequel/remake sells more because of the market size.I gave you examples where they actually sold less.You are now seething.SH2R was a success. Sorry this makes you meltdown.
>>748358624>and the games are also costing a lot more to make.They really don'tAnd you are fucking stupid if you believe so.
>>748379530>SH2R was a successIt was a dogshit game and it only sold because of the original. It's a mediocre product from a terrible game dev
>>748379578understandthe billions paying marketing and shills is a lot!
>>748378590>>748377895P3P/FES did 1.8 million lifetime sales. P3R eclipsed that in a single week.
>>748364550True, that's why he's american.
silent hill f and 2 remake did about as well as you could expect. relatively cheap polish and japan developed games that are in the 3-5 million sales range. kept the franchise current in the zeitgeist and chugging along for new opportunities.the only way they do better is a fluke.
>>748358152>Silent Hill gets brought back just to die over and over again to torment the bereavedpotteryif only I hadn't bought a used copy of SH4
>>748379675>Spend 70% of the game budget on the marketing department>Guys games are so le hekking expensiverino!11!>We need to get rid of physical!
>>748358152Only Japanese devs can save SH
daily reminder that for steams peak player count to be a sales metric, everyone who would ever buy the game would've needed to buy and play the game all the same time on the same platform of steam.
>>748379729>P3R eclipsed that in a single week.P3R is also an abhorrent demake like sh2 Man it's almost like quality is attatched to the games selling less or something. That's craaaaaaaazyAnyways you are obviously fucking mentally ill, you are a resettera troon not a CEO or an Investor. Let me type that again so it gets through you YOU ARE A TRANNY FROM RESSETA NOT AN INVESTORS, THE GAMES SELLING WILL NEVER AFFECT YOU PERSONALLY, THE GAMES BEING DOGSHIT KILLS THE COMMUNITY AND THE INDUSTRY DESPITE THE SOLD COPIES.
>>748379827>games would be cheaper if we dont use physical right..>RIGHT!?>nope...even more expensive!
>>748379656Sorry you have no argument.
>>748379530>You said SH2R was shit.That is my opinion, but that was not said in this conversation.>Anon said if it was it wouldn't be a huge financial success.Also did not happen in this conversation, but shit things often sell well.>You said every new sequel/remake sells more because of the market sizeNo I didn't. I said new games selling older than old games means fuck all because of market size.>I gave you examples where they actually sold less.And it refutes nothing. Something doesn't have to happen every time to be a factor. If you drop a vase and it doesn't break, does that mean that vases never break when dropped?>You are now seething.I am correct, is what I am. Why would I seethe?>SH2R was a success.Arguably yes. I wouldn't call it a massive one.
>>748379969Tbh townfall is 50 buck so it's definitely cheaper than regular big games
>>748380092demakes being horrible games is my argument , you are the one constantly moving the goalpost>but muh sold copies!1!
>>748380112the game isn't worth pirating much less $50
>nigger mcThey never learn do they
>>748380109>I said new games selling older than old games means fuck all because of market size.more than old games, sorry
townfall was just an obvious flop in the making. nobody goes for silenthill because they want dated walking sim horror circa the 2010s. completely wrong vibe and premise for the franchise even ignoring a black guy on the cover.
>>748380187It's more like re7/grace section of re9 but ofc ou wouldn't know that because chudoids don't play games
>>748379656>it only sold because of the originalPeople often overlook thisA lot of remakes wouldn't get a second look if they weren't remakes of a beloved title
>>748362112>SH2 is the only classic SH exampleSo you're just another retard, got it.
>>748378601There's literally no ending where Simon tells the lie.He wasn't even supposed to be in Otherworld.They're just do "PTSD = Silent Hill XD Ebin!" shit againIt's not just not Silent Hill - it's a fucking anti-Silent Hill, lmao
>>748379656>>748380157You're personal opinion isnt an argument
>>748380341>chudoids don't play gamesSounds like you're hallucinating again.
NOOOOOOOO MY SISTERS ASSURED ME THE CHUDS LOST AND WOKE WAS BACK!!!!!!!WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?????????
>>748380431It's not a personal opinion. It's worse than the original and that's a fact.Hey didn't you get bullied by reddit too? Are you underage or mentally ill?
>>748362112Which Silent Hill games have repetitive puzzles and samey locations?I don't agree with the other points either btw, but these are the ones that I think you're completely inventing.
>>748358152I hope so.
now Im pretty sure they didnt spend AAA levels of budget on these games
>>748380109You are not correct. Plenty of games sell worse than their predecessors despite bigger market size in 2026. You are simply wrong and desperately coping now.
>>748380452Woke 2.0 will win in two more weeks
silent hill has literally never been good
OH GOD I LOVE PADLOCKS AAAAAAAAAAGIVE ME MOOOOORE PADLOCKS TO UNLOCK
I'm not buying Townfall because the whole inner trauma gimmick has ran its course. Only SH2 was explicitly about the protagonist's inner trauma. I'm tired of these random outsourced studios assuming that's what Silent Hill has always been about. I didn't even complete The Short Message.
>>748358784Silent Hill is mainstream, there’s just no good games.
The 4 remake will save the franchise.
>>748380515Nope original has shit gameplay thats worse than remake, your opinion doesn't matter and the ONLY ones who like the original are nostalgia fags and you'll all die in time and the future will only see the remake
>>748358784They did that though. The last 3 SH games are lower budget outsourced slop
>>748380614>I dropped a vase and it didn't break, so dropping vases will never cause them to break
>>748380710>Silent Hill is mainstreamSilent Hill is the posterchild for "Its fans have never played the games and only know of it from Youtube rants"
>>748376848I like Silent Hill 3 and refuse to touch f.>But they're exactly the same game, they have female protagonists!Cheryl would bully Hinako.
>>748380763Original has gameplay that serves its purpose, remake tries too hard to be an action game
>>748380763Yeah there we go, you've been samefagging these threads for years now. You are mentally ill. This is not a nursing home for retarded people like you, kill yourself, stop wasting your parents energy and resources just end your life, think of your poor mother and father (if he is even alive). You are a waste of oxygen to everyone around you and to us, we shouldn't be forced to interact with people like you.
>>748380680you ran your coursekill yourself
>>748380889>its shit on purpose!uh huh...
>>748360473Blooper trannies never get bored of shilling their game
>>748378572False
>>748380680Townfall is about black lives mattering. You will buy it, you will finish it.
>>748358562Annapurna suck at their jobs.
>>748380893You know when you write things like this it's embarrassingly obvious you're just posting your own thoughts and fears you've clearly spent a lot of time on?
>>748380945It's not shit though, it's unobtrusive and not the focusRemake combat fucks with the tone too much
>>748380946people like the original games because they had god tier atmosphere and vibes. that is the whole selling point for silent hill. all three of the games in the op image have negative atmosphere and vibes. the reamke is crap, f is dogshit for homosexuals, and the newest game literally looks like a solo dev indie game made in unity
Original SH2 wasn't about trauma and ptsd, he killed his wife
>>748380945Remake and F both have worse combat than the originals simply because of how out of place and forced it is
>>748380341There are way more gameplay mechanics in those sections than there is in Townfall, hell even Alien Isolation had more gameplay mechanics than Stutterfall, try again sweetie
>>748381072>the gameplay is not the focus of games bro just focus on the story and cutscenes
>>748381134
>>748380945yes i will take simple ps2 era survival horror combat over whatever the hell bloober put in that remake.
>>7483812130 remorse chockehold the bitch, He simply didn't remember.
>>748381182alien isolation has an entire sandbox of stealth mechanics and level design for fun emergent gameplay decisions. hell even amnesia the dark descent has more fun stealth gameplay than the townfall
Why does a survival horror game have dodging?
>>748381161Stop focusing on gameplay reeeee, focus on the writing or something. I don't play games for gameplay i play for the feels bro
>>748381126Yeah I agree. And they also had a point, there was a dedicated team that were trying to express themselves, while the modern devs are just trying to copy the old games especially SH2 and failing.
>>748358152>try modern audiences>flop>try modern audiences>flop>try modern audiences>flopftfylike I would've bought f if it were actually a interesting take on the series in a japanese setting with a cute main character, who you want to see through real horror and trauma, not the femcel dark romance slop it was made to be.
>>748381201I meant combat, and so did you. Don't be a nigger.
>>748381390f and 2 remake didn't flop.
>>748381284It's called repression, ESL
>>748380840Exactly, it’s why I said it’s mainstream but there’s no good games they can sell to this larper audience.
>>748381307ill give them the benefit of the doubt and say maybe it was a dumb decision forced by upper management?
>>748381441shut up nerd use small words
Polaks are like Jews without the intelligence and blacks without the athletic ability. The most subhuman group of people on the planet behind Indians.
Gameplay in Silent Hill has always just been servicable, nothing more, but in F and Townfall they managed to make it tedious.
>>748379530>huge financial success Lmao
>>748381527A lot of poles... are jews. Are you new here?
>>748378307trash is also free, that doesn't mean you have to dive headfirst into a dumpster going>yummy 9/10!
>>748381514Learn English, ESL
>>748381527>Polaks are like Jewslike?
>>748381527Kek. It’s unfortunate the Germans weren’t able to complete their job. We lost a sophisticated high culture like Prussa for the shithole Poland to exist. A tragedy. Just like how we lost Team Silent only for the series to be Blooper’s now.
>>748379513Yes the game has a cool aesthetic and good music but the gameplay is rough at best especially when you consider other ps2 games of the time with much tighter controls. The twist/story is the main reason this game wove itself deep into people's heart.
>>748381626Africans will never tell the white man what to do, tongue my anus
>>748381541Pretty much this. I didn't like Shattered Memories but I think that's still a better idea than doubling down on the combat like the newer games did. Just make them adventure games.
>>748381390This.
>>748381391Combat is a big part of the gameplay, you don't beat the demons with dialog options
>>748381429I'm sure. They will announce a sequel to f any minute now... aaaaany minute now
>>748381725Except townfall is all about stealth and it sucks ass.
>>748381787HAHAHAAHAH fucking Poolacks, man
>>748381850>Except townfall is all about stealthYou eventually start fragging the charlies with the bald man
>>748381796SH1R was announced almost immediately after 2R sales numbers came out.
>>748381675I don't know buddy, I think of a lot of PS2 horror games and they have similarly shitty combat, almost like it's intentional or something. Resident Evil was the only survival horror that played well and even that's still kinda clunky really.
>>748381527This but Russians
>>748381694>You>White
>>748358152Townfall came out of nowhere and had no advertisement whatsoever. If it hadn't been for two streamers that I follow playing it, I wouldn't even have realized that it was already out.
More like Silent Hill Downfall
>>748358458F was riding on 2's success, but it fucking sucked so now it's the ip is going back to irrelevancy. Maybe 1 remake will save it again
>>748380873I would bully Cheryl, with my dick.
>>748381675>The twist/story is the main reason this game wove itself deep into people's heart.The story yes, but that's more than just the twist. The atmosphere and presentation wasn't negligible though. The graphics were amazing at the time.>gameplay is rough at best especially when you consider other ps2 games of the time with much tighter controlsReally, it works fine. The worst thing about it is how easy it is, how much ammo and healing it showers you with, and there aren't many enemy types, but it's not awful or anything. It doesn't get in the way of the game. It serves its purpose by providing a layer of tension and giving you more to do than solve puzzles..
>>748381796>sequel to fAnon did you see a lot of SH sequels except from maybe 3? SHs are supposed to be standalone
I hear it is bug free. There's that. The best optimization is letting players fight two enemies for most of the game.
>>748381793And it's still not a major focus. It's an obstacle and a source of tension, and it works fine as it is. This isn't an action game that needs an extremely tight combat system and fine-tuned balance.
>>748379771>japan developedPeople still think f is Japanese heh
>>748381982Russians have at least contributed some great works of literature and feats of engineering. You butthurt belters have done nothing.
>another video game with black person on cover and marketing flops lol.
>>748382276>butthurt beltersCareful, I got banned for that term recently on /v/. For "racism". They're not called butthurt for nothing lmao
Chuds still say something flopped despite the publisher saying remake and F were successful and contracted them to work on the next remake
>>748381936And it's the best section in the game.
>>748382276>butthurt beltersLiterally no one but albino niggers russoids use that term so nice one outing yourself kek.
>>748359618to* nigger to* not for but to*
>>748358562It's the glasses.
>>748360778
I tried the first one, it has playstation 1 tier voice acting. It's shit. Only SH3 is any good the others all suck. I'm never going to understand the love for this shitty franchise.
>>748383068The playstation 1 game had playstation 1 voice acting? You are joking, right?
>>748368854Heather is good looking and she's not a girlboss, quite the opposite actually. SH3 being a fucking masterpiece while F being dogshit helps
>>748379229For some reason i keep remembering it as "The book of revelations"
>>748383121>SH3 being a fucking masterpieceLet's not get crazy now
>>748383068Retard
>>7483581522 didnt flop
>>748383407Neither did f
2 didn't flop BWEEEH BWEEEH2 demake isn't dogshit BWEEEH BWEEHSYBAU
I was looking at the credits for Townfall and I noticed a couple things.Firstly, I did not know Richard's likeness was based on Locke, but looking at a current picture of him I can see it. Guy's gotten chubby since Lost.Secondly, I get why Richard's VA was the worst one in the game- the director/writer voiced him. I thought maybe it was a budget issue, but over in Japanese he's voiced by someone as prolific as Otsuka Akio, so I dunno what happened.Overall, I actually do like the game a fair bit. My issues are basically just>enemies are kind of bland, most of them are just dudes>Richard's VA work is weak (in English at least)>like the story, but it has fuckall to do with Silent Hill, either overtly or in any subtle way (like how F had white claudia as a core plot point)Other than that, probably one of the better SH games as of late.If I had to rank them right now, divorced from my criticism about Townfall not actually being connected to SH, it'd probably be like>1. Silent Hill>2. Silent Hill 3>3. Silent Hill 2>4. Townfall>5. Silent Hill 4>6. The Short Message>7. Silent Hill 2 (2024)>8. Silent Hill f>9. Downpour>10. Play Novel>11. The Arcade>12. Origins>13. Book of Memories>14. Shattered Memories>15. Homecoming
hmmm
>>748383693Forgot to just say that, when I rank the games like that, a big issue with a lot of the shit below 8 is that they're horrifically broken/poorly designed.Bonus issue is that most of them have pretty dogshit characters and storylines.Ranked f pretty low because I find its cast completely uninteresting and it being so combat focused kills my interest in replaying to get all the endings (to this day I'm still about 50% through my NG+ playthrough).SH4 is just utterly miserable to play through and my first replay of Townfall is going good so far, so I have it above 4. Might change.
>>748358784i really enjoy this gifand i haven't seen it in agesso thank you anon
Man I regret buying f so damn much, i played like 4 hours and not a single minute was fun, and now I can't refund it.
