As a SH fantatic; I think the remake gamifies the concept too much. Everything gets turned into a 3 part fetch quest, and quite a bit of the original experience is lost due to it IMO.

BUT, I have zero complaints about the game outside of this. Graphically it's perfect, the 3rd person combat was at least 100% better than the OG, and I enjoyed all of the actors from Angela to Mary.

I just still couldn't help but feel like I was playing Super Silent Hill Brothers 3D though with how much they forced some of the puzzles into being "deeper" than needed.

Meanwhile, I just wrapped up a NG+ playthrough of Alone in the Dark remake and I loved every second of that game - and it seems everyone hates it so whatever :shrug: lol

I believe there are some hardcore fans of the original game, who claim the remake is not shitty per se, but it completely changes gameplay. Additionally there are some censorship/dialogue/story/art direction related changes which they point out. The main issue being remake became The Last of Us clone, where you combat very often, and your enemies are very repetitive. In the original, there were much less fighting, player was pressured much more into managing resources and actually surviving.

212

u/StrangerChameleon Oct 18 '24

That last part is just plain false. The OG had plenty of ammo and healing items. It was never a resource managment heavy survival horror like Resident Evil.

But it still worked because unlike RE the scariest things in Silent Hill is not made of flesh and blood.

106

u/Bojangles1987 Oct 18 '24

Yeah, SH2 is a laughably easy game combat wise because the combat is simple and you get an abundance of resources. If we're honest it's the biggest weakness of the game.

I'm one of those hardcore fans who really really loves the original. Yes the remake slightly changes things up, and messes with the order of the game. It's honestly why I love it so much, I can't completely participate what's happening and rely on my skills from the original game to save me. If I want to play a game paced exactly like the original, with the same loved clunky controls, and cheesy voice acting, I'll play the original. It's not like they took it away from us.

Additionally there are some censorship/dialogue/story/art direction related changes which they point out.

Nothing about this is censorship. Anyone who thinks a simple costume change between an original and a remake qualifies as "censorship" is quite literally developmentally challenged -- or rather, they never developed at all. They don't even have a fucking brain. They do all of their thinking with their little head, and are incapable of employing the most basic, ≤ 8th grade level of reasoning.

Any number of explanations from "creative liberty" to "just trying new things" are infinitely more likely than "cEnsORsH!P".

But everything's a leftie conspiracy, right? Nah, Occam's Razor is just fake news invented by the liberal SJWs to discredit based red-pilled Gamer bros. /s

The second these morons call "censorship", their opinion is revealed as simply and entirely invalid.

I’ll be honest, I finished playing the original two months ago, idk if I had the wrong mentality but there’s definitely a bunch of fighting. On the streets you obviously just run and the corridors in the hotel are large enough to do the same, but the apartment complex and hospital are too tight to run away without taking at least one hit to the back. Items are abundant, the only time in the entire game I had trouble with resources was during the double boss fight.

I only saw a friend play about 4 hours of the remake but I didn’t notice that much more fighting.

This is probably a juvenile take, but I feel like anyone who uses the term "normies" unironically immediately invalidates their argument.

u/Melancholy_Rainbows Oct 18 '24

People using it desperately want a reason to feel special and somehow settled on their hobbies as the reason. So their hobby being popular is a threat to them feeling special. They need to create a special category for those "others", because they are clearly the True Fan Who Is Very Special, and everyone else, especially everyone else who likes different things about what they like or, gods forbid, has criticism about what they like, is wrong and not a True Fan™.

It's just a way to create in groups and out groups, essentially.

117

u/Diogekneesbees Oct 18 '24

It's definitely an overcomplicated nexus of hobbies being too closely ascribed to ones identity and just blatantly being afraid of change. It's prominent everywhere and I just don't get it. But I guess I'm a "normie" who doesn't feel threatened by the world outside my own door lol.

31

u/cammyjit Oct 18 '24

If they’re just playing games, and chronically online, the only thing that makes them any different from modern day “normies” is the misogyny and hating minorities. Even, then, it’s not incredibly uncommon for either of those things to show up

Even things like Warhammer and DnD are super popular now

22

u/Thiscommentissatire Oct 19 '24

They think the reason they are shunned by most of society is because they're simply too quirky. They play video games, table top games. People just dont understand them because they're smarter than everyone else.

Now that more people are engaging in these "quirky" things its becoming very clear to them that the reason people dont like them has nothing to do with their hobbies. Its really just because theyre fucking assholes.

Silent Hill 2 is very niche and underground pal, the fact that it is the most famous horror game of all time is actually a clever psychological element and reference to the fact M.D. Therapist Silent Hill is within all of us, it's much more smarter than normie trash like Silent Hill 2

The main takeaway I have learned from people like this is that their lives have to be absolutely miserable. They must be, because they can’t enjoy anything. Not one damn thing. And they can’t let anyone else enjoy anything either.

So they have to be just absolutely miserable. On their own heads of course and they are of their own doing. They just need to fuck off and let people enjoy things.

u/StocismIsOverrated Oct 18 '24

I’m truly amazed that people ever experienced sexual desire with this game. I’ve played Silent Hill since I was a kid and the only emotions I ever felt to the female characters was sympathy and sadness.

I’m somewhat skeptical that these guys even sexualized the characters for those of them who played it early on. Their descent into degeneracy as adults is probably making them rage about what they perceive as woke, or whatever.

22

u/vsyca Sweet Baby Inc. Enthusiast Oct 19 '24

People do sexualize the game character but it's towards Pyramid Head

u/Lohenngram Oct 19 '24

Isn’t that like sexualizing Ted Bundy? I thought part of the character’s symbolism was an embodiment of James’s repressed sexual desires and the violent rage he felt that he wasn’t getting laid.

7

u/Legacyopplsnerf Oct 19 '24

Not quite since he’s a fictional monstrosity, it’s pure fantasy. It’s more in the way some people find Xenomorphs hot, the threat and otherness is enticing. Pyramid Head is also more outwardly human so it’s more palatable to people who aren’t full blown monster fuckers.

It also helps that most interpretations of PHead outside of SH2 depict him as extremely muscular with a nice ass lol.

2

u/Lohenngram Oct 19 '24

I was thinking more of how Bundy as a character was sexualized by the public after that Netflix documentary, but fair enough.

Not kink shaming at all, it just feels weird seeing people sexualize a character that represents male sexual violence. I suppose a better comparison would be to seeing them sexualizing Angela’s dad from the same game.

4

u/Legacyopplsnerf Oct 19 '24

I think it’s because by design Pyramid head is very masculine which some people are attracted to.

Sometimes it just ends with “he looks hot” while others are “I wish he’d treat me like that mannequin” in the way the dude in 50 shades is objectively horrible, but it’s a fantasy that someone wouldn’t actually want to be put though with real life stakes (vs it being play with a consenting partner)

u/DrunkRobot97 Oct 19 '24

I have never played a Silent Hill, but watching some of the cutscenes also made me very confused how someone could find it titillating. The acceptable standards for slickness when it comes to (voice) acting in games has improved since Y2K, and on top of that there seems to be a deliberate effort for the characters to act strange and off-putting, because it's a horror game and wants you to feel confused and tense.

It's wild to me that people like that guy who made the tweet exist.

To be honest I doubt he's ever played either version of the game and has just had his brain so rotted by gooner crybabies that anytime he sees a woman that isn't an anime jailbait character it makes him malfunction.

Every single one of the people complaining about "uglification" and "they made her look like a man!" have got to be the most abhorrent human beings on the planet, to the point I feel bad for any woman that's unfortunate enough to be part of their actual lives.

So for all the amount of people screaming about Angela’s design, I looked up her wiki article and… she looks the same with updated graphics. Don’t think the original game was sexualizing her either given the whole, ya know, psychological horror going on.

So is this just going to be a new normal where some group of chuds will cry about a new game or cartoon every two weeks?

5

u/Legacyopplsnerf Oct 19 '24

From what I’ve seen she looks more youthful and comparatively chubby in the face compared to her prior gaunt look, the gauntness making her look older.

OG Angela looks haggard and aged beyond her years (or mentally regressing if you view her as a 30 year old), Remake Angela actually looks her age and still has a childish aspect to her. Imo both depictions are good.

Someone else pointed out a detail with remake Angela is her design implies she deliberately put on weight to make herself less attractive as well as dress very conservatively, which is a common reaction to sexual assault.

And Pat went into it wanting to hate it too. A lot of his fans did as well (including me). But he came out of that game giving it nothing but praise.

It's literally the most influential horror game of his childhood, the game that he basically said started his career (he never would have gotten into LPing on YouTube if not for playing SH2 apparently), and he enjoyed and praised the remake. That's about the highest praise it could get, when the genuine fans of the original game say it did the original justice.

I went into this game expecting it to be maybe not as bad as OOP stated but not very good. It's actually amazing. The devs really understood what made the original so iconic, and everything I've seen so far (just met Maria for the first time) has honored the original even with its added moments. Even the combat is really well done. It feels weighty, and you have to make sure every hit and dodge counts. I'd have to finish it first but so far it's definitely in my top 5 GOTY

Talking about taste when you promote AI imagery.

The fucking irony.

I was 13 when the original came out and played it around Halloween for years. This game does not crap on the original. Is there somewhat of a tonal shift? Only about as much as there was between Twin Peaks and Twin Peaks: The Return is the perfect way to describe it to me. It's darker but still retains that surreal and strange dreamlike quality. People just want to complain and claim DEI and shit, like Angela was ever designed to be attractive.

To say they crap on it when you can literally feel their love for the series in every puzzle and detail.

In a nutshell, changing Maria's literal Christina Aguilera costume for more contemporary clothes ruined a game for a bunch of grown men, I mean actually fucking think about that...

People who circlejerk to the original SH2 need their own social media where they can post in an echo chamber and no one else has to see their dogshit opinions

u/AzothThorne Oct 19 '24

Man what’s always so frustrating about these shitheads is that they always hurt legitimate criticism of the games they bitch about. Like there’s genuinely things to not like about the silent hill remake, but all these fuckwits bury that under their porn brained whining.

u/NTRBlaze Oct 19 '24

Ah, I see that they suddenly believe that sales don't equal quality, because the sales aren't beneficial to them.

u/nickkuroshi Oct 19 '24

If even one of the most vocal cynics of the remake and biggest fans of the original gave it a fair shot and says its good, then maybe the remake isn't the problem?

u/EldritchElizabeth Oct 19 '24

How are we all feeling about the remake out of curiosity? I've heard some really good things, I've heard some really bad things.

u/The-red-Dane Oct 19 '24

Ah yes, the classic "It's the consumers who are wrong and have shit taste"

The anti games journalists have adopted (in truth, they always felt this way, from the very beginning) the elitist outlook they claim the game journalists have.

strong words coming from a guy called GameCharacterAI

u/little_pioneer Oct 19 '24

Bro is GameCharacterAi and dissing on normies??? Ai is the thrown up slop that reduces everything to its most superficial concepts with no added value. He is less than a normie, he is less original and more white bread than a great value bag of frozen peas.

u/sunlightdrop Oct 19 '24

"shits on the original"? Silent hill 2 is probably the most faithful, coloring in the lines remake of a game that I've ever seen, compared to stuff like the resident evil remakes

I'm guessing the "shitting on" is the 19 year old csa victim not being hot when twisting her face in agony

u/BarPsychological904 Oct 19 '24

When a game labeled as "woke" has low sells: YOU SEE? When developers finally understand that no one wants their "woke" sh*t around? "Go woke, go broke!"

When a game labeled as "woke" is "sold out": pfft, what can I say, normies have zero taste, no one actually plays it, it's only for YouTube fr fr

It would be exhausting if these idiots had any actual brain cells. They're not really rocking much hardware in the CPU, though, so it's kind of just simple for them.

u/whosafeard Oct 18 '24

That or it’s a long awaited remake of an incredibly popular game that some believe may be one of the best ever made. It’s like 50/50 idk.

My brother who is a super fan of the og basically only thing he mentioned was he preferred the og soundtrack didn't really think the changes to the songs were necessary and I kind of agree like it wasn't bad just prefer original.

Unironically calling people ‘normies’ is about as cringe as it gets

u/Pup_Femur Oct 19 '24

I remember the OG being hard and me giving up not even halfway through because it felt unbeatable. I don't remember where I quit, just that I did.

I would play the remake in a heartbeat.

It's more open and I like the combat shift. It seems much more fun and even more intimidating because you can see more details on the monsters.

Titties don't make everything better.

Bring back Pyramid Head's booty, though. That made the game better. 1000%.

u/r1poster Oct 19 '24

I was a SH2R doubter and hater. The original holds a special place in my heart.

But after playing it, you can obviously, clearly tell Bloober put their hearts into it. It is an absolute soulful love letter of a remake.

I still will always prefer the original for various reasons, but there's nothing wrong with the remake. I don't understand people like this. It is 100% a remake worth playing.

u/AkumaValentine THE transgender agenda 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him) Oct 19 '24

I believe it was the director or someone from the original dev team that said if they had the hardware and technology back then, this remake would have been the original. What in the fuck does this guy mean that it shits on the original? They’re all for the artists original intention until it goes against their stupid close minded beliefs.

2

u/KingKushhh666 Oct 19 '24

This dude deserves to be kicked in the balls. He's not a true silent hill fan. Any real fan will tell you they're just fucking grateful a game finally came out that's worth playing. And this one is an amazing remake. I bet that dildo never even picked up the controller to try it.

u/Procrastor Hello? I'm here for the *checks sign* forced diversity? Oct 19 '24

Even if you want to say something is a bad game, you dont even need to do this conspiracy shit. Bad games that make money happen all the time. That Hogwarts game, just excluding the politics, was shit but people got in, played it for 2 hours and moved on. People get the newest Cod or Madden all the time because the IP has purchase in peoples heads and because people love slop. Just say, "All Silent Hill 2 has is its reliance on peoples nostalgia." But because they want to also make the claim that "go woke, go broke" so they cant reconcile that into their explanation.

i played like 2 hours of the remake and didn't really like it, and i think this is the first time i've even thought about it since. i don't get how boring ur life has to be to do shit like this

u/Chanku-kun Oct 19 '24

Ngl man, I'm pretty convinced that this type of very obviously brain dead takes are just ragebait, posted JUST for engagement. And not for the sake of stating their opinion.

I saw a super racist meme today on twitter and people quote tweeting it and arguing with the OP.

All of them are verified users too

u/[deleted] Oct 18 '24

I would get it if this was the FF7 remake/reboot. The changes were major and as convoluted as Kingdom Hearts, and the addition of voice acting made the bad dialogue much more noticeable and painful.

Silent hill 2 remake was an upgrade in voice acting, character models and emotion. Gameplay wasn't terrible either, and changes in level design made sense.

Reminds me when people were raging at the Demon Souls remake music, as if the goofy original music was Beethoven.

I only speak for myself, I just didn't gel with the remake. Didn't try the second one, because I bounced off the first one.

I am happy people enjoyed it.

u/marinetheraccoonfan Oct 18 '24

I thought Rebirth would be a slam dunk failure after what Remake put down tbh but I'm actually shocked at how much I'm liking what it's doing so far? I thought they were going to just try and smooth over all deaths, consequences, and just have more silly whisper nonsense, but I feel like the whispers and time are far more interesting in this one than Remake. I gotta wait for the lategame to really judge of course

 I think there's a lot to like about the original Demon's but I always hated the "western vs eastern" drama, especially those damn castle walls, I'm 100% certain they were just grey squares because it was a tiny background detail in a PS3 game you would only see in a couple points of Boletaria not some grand vision for romanesque architecture lol
