@sakaixx: If this is what it seems to be, Sony is about to destroy everything announced at E3.

Silent Hill reboot exclusive to PS5.

All the lemmings doing cartwheels over that silly Twilight game and the skeleton Halo game are about to look like bigger clowns than ever before.

because another 10 hour 3rd person movie game is going to do that

All big series have their hyperbole fanboys.

Who cares. Kojima games may have been cool in the 90s but they've been trash ever since.

Social media is hyping up this supposed Silent Hill reboot to the roof and shows no sign of slowing down. I have joined the rabbit hole for fun but I am scared of the metdowns and all the hate comments devs will get if this turned out to be something else. Hope they could survive this Tuesday reveal.

Not buying it. Sucks because I do love Silent Hills

Err honestly, this thread has more post than the other and plus, this is way more details here so no need to lock this one.

Well as I said before Kojima doesn't get at all what Silent Hill is if we go by P.T. neither does Del Toro so I have no hope for that. Secondly, Kojima is an overrated hack who thinks him self a visionary and being worshiped as such by his stupid fanbase. DS is an eye opener for anybody how sh*t Kojima is and how much of a cult his fanbase is.

Oh and hi sweetie (Subspecies) @wandering_halls.

@pc_rocks: You dumb if you think Kojima and Del Toro dont know about Silent Hill.

They don't and I already explained why. P.T. was as far away from the original Silent Hill games as it could be just like the people who later took over the series.

@eoten: MGSV was an excellent game gameplay wise.

@pc_rocks: Kojima is the best possible choice outside of Team Silent to resuscitate Silent Hill. If you think he does not fit then you don't understand Silent Hill. Silent Hill is a place that adapts to the psychology interacting with it. It is far more open-ended than you realize. The town itself has a psychology all its own, but it is a chameleon of sorts that will contort and conform to fit the psyche in its midst. This is clearly demonstrated in SH2, which is wholly unlike SH1, based upon the particular strain of intelligence and sensitivities the town has to work with (James, Eddie, Angela, Laura, etc.)

@davillain-: Thanks for keeping the thread open, Davvy! You're right, it's better than the other thread.

Unfortunately I lack the enthusiasm for Kojima games these days.

Death Stranding was a bore and while MGS5 is a good game, it’s not all that different from a third person Far Cry game.

I'm not a fan of Kojima games in general. Doesn't matter what it is, I'll be passing.

Watch... Sony hands Kojima the Uncharted series. *sigh* That would be my luck.

The original games were never about the jump scares which PT was. Pretty sure Kojima looked at the later abominations of Silent Hill which were in name only and was going for that, subspecies. You being a Silent Hill and Team Silent fan should have known that.

Lol, it's like you didn't even read what I wrote.

Silent Hill is a living being. It will conform to the psyche interacting with it. If said psyche is prone to sudden interruptions of thought and/or psychic manifestation, then the town will accommodate that. Do you grasp what I'm saying? The town is a chameleon. Kojima's psyche, as a dev, is absurd, and absolutely prone to flights of fancy and tonal dynamics. As such, the town of Silent Hill would have a heyday with his head.

Yeah, dude, I know the series. And I know the team. And I know what they are about.

One other point. P.T. was not Silent Hills. Kojima was quite clear about that. He said directly that P.T. did not connect canonically and had no relation to the actual game. It was just a tool to unlock the actual trailer--which involved no jump scares whatsoever, and simply had the main character walking down a quiet street in the town.

Do your homework, dude.

@recluse589: He is not overrated, but he does not make games that appeal the masses, rather he develops game for very niche audiences, and he's absolutely right in doing so. i avoided Death Stranding for more than a year thanks to the negative reception, then played it and had a fantastic experience even tho it was a bit repetitive, but at least it was something interesting and new, unlike anything else in the market, which is only shooters and pointless multiplayer games.

@Dragerdeifrit: I agree I had a fantastic time with death Stranding. I also agree on your point about how people moan about shooters, open worlds, pokemon, marios and battle royale yet when devs try new genres and new mechanics those complainers realized they just want to play games that is oversaturating the market.

Doesn't matter if it's connected canonically or not. That was a teaser of the game to be expected so the gameplay would be reminiscent of what was in PT. I don't care what Kojima says, I mean how could anyone knowing what he writes and talk about. Don't have the patience to go through his verbal diarrhea, my dear Subspecies.

Holy crap, dude. The guy also said that the gameplay elements of the actual game were not even touched upon in P.T. He wanted to completely throw people off the scent of Silent Hill altogether. That was the whole purpose of P.T. The actual game was on display in the trailer, which, again, involved no jump scares of any kind.

You're a freaking master of missing the point.

This certainly has the attention of a lot of gamers. The reveal should be interesting. I wonder if we'll get a "Kept you waiting?" easter egg?

No it wasn't. They turned a one-of-a-kind stealth game into a generic open world third person shooter like dozens of others. **** MGSV.

And he said that DS is an action adventure like Uncharted. How did that turn out? The guy is so far up his own a$$, it's unbelievable but then again he has a massive cult that worships him so...

Completely irrelevant.

I disagree, just because the game let you run and gun doesnt mean stealth is dead, its just more freedom of options. The stealth is perfectly intact and you have many chances in game to infiltrate big structures and there is more options in stealth than in previous entries with so many entry points using so many options. The only thing that is worse is MGSV boss battles but that is not saying a lot considering its already been on a downhill slope with each entry.

You got to atleast appreciates the amount of efforts and research those Bluebox guys put into making this whole ARG thing.

It's as relevant as it can be, subspecies. Kojima is a hack, he will say anything that hypes his cult following.

@sakaixx: If Blue Box turns out to have nothing to do with Silent Hill after all this they are going to be a seriously hated dev, lol.

The comments on the video are freaking comedy.

To be clear, when all is said, done, and seen, I don't think this is a Silent Hill game. I really, reeeeeally hope I'm wrong. But SH fans have just been burned too much. This exact situation has happened many, many times. This one might be tad bit different, but it still has the feel of SH fans hyping up just to be disappointed, yet again. Not the last time it'll happen either, I'm sure.

Again, I really hope I'm wrong.

Welp, RIP Silent Hill 2021.

@wandering_halls: lets just enjoy the ride. The journey been really fun so far I think even if its fake this is the best viral marketing any studio could ever done. Everything they did they tried to link with Silent Hill, either intentional or coincedental. Love this.

It would be really horrible if this turns into Sony fanboys getting Rick-rolled by a fake Twitter account... but I will be there to twist the knife if it does 😇

Indeed, this one has been kinda fun.

But man, I'm getting a bit sick of these. It seems like a new one pops up with Silent Hill every couple months.

**sigh**

Just give me anything Kojima... God of video development we already know it'll be a GOTG winning masterpiece.

Easy marketing associating yourself with a beloved franchise, hence why a lot of "inspired by Silent Hill" or "silent hill spiritual successor" being thrown around regularly to generate interest. I was originally dismissive of this but the rabbit hole of "coincedence" so deep its kind of fun reading various conspiracy theories thrown. I still think its not Kojima game as his company mascot did appear on Phil shelf and Phil said everything there has meaning while this "game" is PS console exclusive.

Time for cows to ignore the game.

@jasonofa36: Well that's.....exciting? Not sure what it even means.

I want my Silent Hill. Damn it.

@jasonofa36: Nice to know I wont have to buy a PS5 for it, if it indeed is Silent Hill.

@wandering_halls: cows are gonna ignore the game now cos it isnt exclusive. Look at the final fantasy soulsborne game that was leaked. Hyped to heavens by cows cos they thought it was exclusive. Ignored now.

This is getting way more attention than it should.

Indeed. Silent Hill is the one thing that would force me to get a PS5.

@wandering_halls: problem is, is Konami competent enough to do anything with it? Hell, they should just sell their IPs to Sony. At least it could become games even if they are exclusive.

It's not like I disagree. Konami is definitely incompetent. Plus they just don't care, or haven't for a while. If I had to buy a PS5 for Silent Hill I would. If that's the cost of a good entry in the series, so be it.

Holy crap. So every time the SH revival gets shot down, more hope pops up. This is making the rounds. Apparently it wasn't faked, as others have gotten similar responses over the last 24 hours or so. Konami is about to open up a new Silent Hill merch line, and people are asking about the possible Abandoned/Kojima connection. I mean, why would they respond this way if it wasn't indeed Silent Hill? Crazy.

EDIT: This interaction with Konami was screen recorded. Details on sh/reddit.

@wandering_halls: holi... yeah something is happening. Known horror game leaker did mention there is 2 team that got to work on silent hill IP one based in japan and the other is said to be team bloober (lmao that gonna be a snoozefest). Dunno if this abandoned game is related but something is definitely happening.
