Honestly, why would you expect to walk around a haunted town and everything you need to survive is just conveniently laid out on the counter for you?
That's IGN for you. Sounds like this guy didn't even revisit the original before playing this. It's either too faithful or not so faithful and either way someone's gonna be butthurt about it.
Exactly. He’s probably 20 years old and never played the original. I’m 45 and loved the original silent hill and silent hill 2. Bought them both on release day back then.
Yeah, not sure why that's a criticism. Nobody wanted this remake to stray too far from the original. Updated graphics/controls/camera, but keep the dialogue, story, atmosphere etc the same.
@@cvampaul yes, but who likes to press one button for like 2 minutes and watch how enemy falls down and wakes up over and over again. Its been 20 years since the original release
So much complaining in this preview. Faithful voice acting is a huge plus. I'm happy Bloober seemingly hasn't added any new elements as they're not the creators of this franchise. It worked for capcom since they created RE. Bloober was hired to remake SH2, and it looks like they've done an excellent job
Ironically a lot of folks that did the original were brought on for the remake but want to drastically change everything as opposed to Bloober wanting to retain to the original.
Seriously? First people raise all hell to make sure that it’s a faithful adaptation, and now we’re saying that it should’ve taken more creative liberties? The complaints on this one are pretty ridiculous to be honest. Resident evil was able to get away with more changes because, while the games are great, It’s never really been known for having a serious story with strict character arcs. On the other hand, Silent Hill has always been a story-driven series, and the character arcs are written in such a way that changing even small details would alter the narrative entirely. A game like this SHOULD NOT be taking serious, creative liberties, so I’m thankful to hear that Bloober is doing their part faithfully adapting this masterpiece.
And they have givers even more exploration of the town my only complaint with Silent Hill to original is it all the doors were locked now it appears we've got more freedom to explore which is incredible

Sick of these fake SH fans jumping the hype train complaining about everything, rushing Konami and Bloober, complaining about things in the game that’s literally in the OG game.. I’ve been a fan since 99 and have been through the ups and downs with the series.. That being said, you don’t understand how lucky we are to be getting this remake.. the series has literally been dormant for years. I’m hyped for this game🎉
yes, team silent was heavily inspired by twin peaks and david lynch, and the dialogue in sh2 especially sounds just like his work sometimes, especially that classic maria in the jail cell scene
Did this company not get bad press for making ammendments? And then they've went back to keep in it faithful and the reviewer is saying he doesn't want that? As someone who only played the silent hill 1 demo when it came with Metal Gear Solid back in the day-this is a big welcome for me.
From playing some of their other games, Blooper NOT taking any big swings was the best call they could have made. I'm actually kinda excited about this now
Absolutely no one asked Konami to remake the game that proved video games are an art form, but considering they did, yeah, people are gonna complain when it's watered down into consumer slop.

This is a game that should be left as it is, and I’m happy Bloober Team has stuck to that plan.

You wanted bloober to "subvert your expectations."
Another great IGN take
Can this guy shut up about Resident Evil? It's blatant that he's the expert of RE and not Silent Hill, his review is uncredible because those two games are so different
3:04 Dashie must be playing with that aim
this is probably the sanest comment section I've seen here. ironic
Loot is an issue...in a survival horror game...
Ok IGN, once more you prove thay you don't know many things about games...
Journalism like this killed gaming
is this a resident evil review or a sh2remake video? im sorry bro im confused
6:39 The flashlight is one of the most important items in the game, like the radio. Also, literally, the original scene was made this way. You pick up the flashlight, then Mannequin jumpscares you. There's not a lot of jumpscares in Silent Hill, but the ones there are earned
Really liking what I’m seeing. Looks awesome.
Over the shoulder view? More like behind the shoulder considering James is almost as tall as the screen. Why the hell would anyone in game design choose to put a character on screen like that? It's such terrible placement.
This is the only time in a almost a decade that Konami made something right bro let them cook
Not only did Konami not make this, it very much ain't right lol
@@Peasham Konami always hired another company to do the Silent Hill games
@@K2NGG That's.
No.
The original four were all by the same dev team inside Konami, every game after the original four was by other devs, and every game after the original four is hated foor having many of the design decisions that SH2R has.
So bloober is not altering things like RE2 remake did? Thats great news
So the issues were...
- faithful to the original
- looting in a survival horror game
Wtf IGN?
IGN criticisms are actually pluses for the game lmfao
