I don’t know why I do this to myself but, I’m in. I’m ready to be excited and like what they’re doing here. Just give me some Steam pages to wishlist and I’m in. I get that Bloober is a big “ehhh” on the SH2 remake but I’m rooting for them to do it. I don’t see the point in continuously dunking on something that I desperately hope turns out well. Wanderer posted:For what it's worth, next week's Signalis might be the most Silent Hill 2 game I've played in years, at least in terms of sheer surreality. Real talk, I’ve literally never heard of this game until your post but have now wishlisted it based entirely on this. I hope you’re getting a cut of the marketing budget.

NikkolasKing posted:Do people in 2022 really still hate SH4? I thought it was mid when it came out and now I think it's really bad. It's 30% of a good game, but so much of it is phoned in, from the systems, to the animations, puzzles and notes. It also becomes apparent less than halfway through that they ran out of time. The first three games were very consistent experiences, but the second half of SH4 looks like it was made in five months from existing assets.

Wanderer posted:https://bloody-disgusting.com/editorials/3736935/signalis-and-the-oppressive-mechanics-of-survival-horror-hands-on-preview-interview/ Oh that more clarification actually sounds interesting. Spoilers for Apsulov and (spoiling these titles because I am afraid referencing them might in directly spoil Signalis, though pretty much everyone has played this second one) Doom. I like how Apsulov is basically Doom. But instead of Hell and super, super loose Christian mythology, it’s Norse mythology. Asgard and the other realms of Norse mythology are real, we can open portals to them, and it’s a total loving nightmare. And of course Doom itself (and Event Horizon) where Hell is real, it’s literally another dimension you can open a scientific portal to, and it’s a nightmare. For some reason I just like the idea of “these nightmares are real physical places that you can get to with sci-if technology”. Feels like a more interesting twist than “you are 1920s racist who thinks being part Italian is equally as horrifying as find out you are a fish man.”

sh4 has some neat ideas but terrible execution on most of them. its better than all the post-4 games but thats a low bar.

I'm also on the team that likes SH4's first half but not its second. It's got a few scenes and scares that have really stuck with me (gently caress you, room with giant Eileen face out of nowhere), and I tend to remember those before I dwell on its failures, but mechanically it's a slog.

F looks rad even if lifting the series out of America seems questionable, Townfall had a neat trailer and I'll choose to harbor optimism, the rest is all dumb nonsense but who cares. (Is it "forte"? Is it "FFFFFive?")

If you haven't tried Untold Stories or Observation (not to be confused with Bloobers Observer) I would seriously recommend it. Untold Stories kind of whiffs the ending to me but everything that leads up to it is so good and you might end up liking the ending too. Observation is a thing of its own. Space weirdness. I really do love how No Code tells stories. E: also, these aren't "horror" games, not sure how you would label them, but the devs loved that fans described them that way sometimes.

Nah, the menus and flavor text call him PH, but the official guides/artbooks and whatnot call him RPT. I think he's red triangle in Japanese or something like that.

I mentioned this in the RE thread but while I haven't personally played SH2 yet, I know all the endings. I just have no clue how to get any of them save for one criteria of one of them. Maria - you gotta look at Mary's picture a lot, or read her letter a lot. I forget which but I'm positive this is one criteria. But I looked all this up probably more than ten years ago now. I'm not sure if it's even realistic to get these endings on a blind run or if you need to follow a guide.

The bloober and annapurna projects actually looked the most promising. Hiring some people off Twitter and outsourcing to a Taiwan studio that’s busy making GBS threads out REverse for Silent Hill 5 is an INSULT

I just have no clue how to get any of them save for one criteria of one of them. It's basically a matter if you're nicer to Mary or Maria, and also whether you take care of yourself. Read Mary's letter a lot, get Leave. Take care of Maria and check in on her when she's injured, get Maria. Stare at the knife a whole lot and be a big old sad boy about killing your wife, get In Water. It's unlikely you'll get the others first time around past that. Remake is probably going to be poo poo because Bloober doesn't make good games and I've seen shots of frame dodging combat but hey we have seen worse.

There are only three endings available on an initial run, and realistically, you'd probably get Leave if you were playing wholly blind. Leave's criteria are met for playing the game as a typical first-time player would: don't spend a lot of time at low health, keep moving forward, don't dink around with Maria any longer than you have to.

I recall I actually got In Water my first time through because playing RE had me in the habit of not bothering to heal unless I really really needed to. Whoops.

I remember the Super Best Friends Play SH2 where Pat attempted to stack the odds in In Water's favor by pretending to fumble with his inventory in a way that always resulted in checking the letter or the photo.
