I really hate it when people see something slightly out of the ordinary and go "whoa, the guy who made this must have been on drugs! The unwillingness to embrace something with a more esoteric structure is why a huge amount of media is just bland + homogenised + safe. Anyway videogame chat, I'm finally going to start Silent Hill 2 since I've been putting it off for so long; 'tis the season!

Silent Hill 2 is good and I hope you enjoy it. Oh yeah so I've been playing The Evil Within some more and I'm at the RE1 Mansion for some reason. Uh why is there a ghost that seems to randomly spawn and insta-kill me if he touches me? It's not even the insta-kill that bothers me so much as having to randomly stop exploring so I can run around enough to despawn him.

Anyway he only spawns once per wing so when the screen flashes duck in the nearest cupboard. This is the only level this guy appears like this. And a little tip, the next chapter is super long and hard. There's a chase sequence with an old enemy and while they can be killed you shouldn't bother.

I usually like the concept behind Boundary Break but the new Silent Hill 2 episode really gives me that "Here is exactly how the magician does their tricks now the magic is ruined for you." feeling you get sometimes when watching some "Behind the Scenes" thing. Of note is that the sound filter and fog are the secret sauce to basically everything in the game looking "Good" to the point that if you remove those things you get what are possibly the saddest looking water textures ever, which explains a lot about why the HD version of Silent Hill 2 turned out as bad as it did.

That's not necessarily a bad thing, the look of a game is a combination of everything used to create it and most games would look like poo poo if you took out major elements of their presentation. See also: the PC port of Resident Evil 4, or that glitch where a certain spot in Breath of the Wild disables the cel shader. SH2 is the best horror game.

the original pc port of resident evil 4 launched during that era of capcom ports that were incredible disasters (see also: devil may cry 3), and debuted without the lighting engine until they patched the thing to enable it the years later HD PC port of it turned out much better but it did have some chicanery going on with the unlocked framerate

The original PC port also kept (I believe) PS2 button prompts in so if you're playing on a keyboard you're hosed when an instant death QTE comes at you unless you know which action corresponds to a controller's button.

The HD version of Silent Hill 2 was advertised as being "Brought up to speed with modern games"-graphics wise and ended up showing off things we were never meant to be shown, like the stanky lake water. It's like how in the 360 generation a bunch of 2D game ports/revisions were advertised as getting all new graphics that would be definitive way to play them and they'd end up looking worse by looking better. Sometimes you need a fuzzy CRT.

I'm hard on Silent Hill 2 for being piss easy with not-scary and ineffective monsters. Someone 12 years ago must've heard my future pleas and retroactively rolled back everything in Silent Hill 3. Melee weapons don't stunlock, enemies are large enough to block your path, and the game throws in enemy filled "gotcha!" rooms with nothing important in them to tease you (unless a harder difficult tosses a tchotchke in there). I loving hate the ground crawly guys that knock you down, and I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to use the beef jerky to distract them but fuuuuck if I'm going through that effort. I've only got two areas left and a dozen plus health drinks.

He can do this now where he couldn't before because you're in the place where his memories are the strongest and therefore he has the most control. The hunting-you-part is poorly implemented and The Evil Within really could have used less instant kill enemies.

exquisite tea posted:The original Blade Runner is probably my favorite movie but 2049... I dunno, just wasn't feeling it. I think the script has a lot of pacing problems and many characters, particularly the female leads are very underwritten. When we were leaving the theater my wife remarked "this was a movie for dudes" and I was inclined to agree. I'm not surprised to hear the movie isn't doing well with any demographic that isn't males over the age of 30. Yeah, the original Blade Runner is my girlfriend's favorite movie but she was pretty lukewarm on 2049 and mentioned the "movie for dudes" issue. I wonder how much the initial positive reaction will stand the test of time.

Everyone always talks about SH2 but same as you, I didn't find that scary because it was too easy. All of the enemies were a pain in SH3 (which is good) and I was always on the verge of running out of ammo and health.

DigitalFoundry has an episode all about the tech behind Silent Hill 2, and it was apparently a unique quirk of the PS2's architecture that made the iconic fog layer possible. Which is why all subsequent remasters and ports fail to capture the grainy eeriness of the original.

FirstAidKite posted:Did xenosaga 2 and 3 and the mobile games go back and retcon more or less every major plot point of xenosaga 1 :P Xenosaga 2 was unbalanced as hell even with having every character port over 80 levels of points from the save transfer and assigning roles for each character. I spent a few hours just leveling them to 30-40 and doing the dream dungeons. MOMO still dies in one hit from early game enemies that are debuffed. This is a second playthrough and knew what to expect. I quit the game in disgust since X3 would retcon everything.
