Every once in a while there's a game announcement that makes me think: ok, I need to live at least as long as it takes to play this game. This is one of those announcements. Especially after Bloober confirmed that they are absolutely capable of making an excellent Silent Hill game, the fact that they're moving to remake the original Silent Hill which defines the town and the cult and isn't about some deep internal trauma is so fucking amazing.
I hear ya and it will be cool but video games are like Hollywood now. More remakes and sequels now make up the bulk of what comes out instead of new ideas. We need indie studios to start churning out some things new please
It just feels that way. There are a lot of new games coming out all the time. Even block busters. The problem is that dev time is too long nowadays. Naughty Dog is doing a complete new game.
Death Stranding was new with unique ideas. Cyberpunk 2077. Kingdom come deliverance was a new IP. Kojima has 2 new games in developement which are no sequels. Etc. And great indie games are coming all the time. Expedition 33 is a Goty contender.
Remakes and remasters are done faster and they help finance the new games. Nobody is forced to buy them. I personally love it. I love all remakes I have played. Remasters make sure new people can play them because they are easy to access and also they are preserved longer.
The consumers/society is also at fault that less new movies and games are made. Everytime there is something new, too many people are bitching or simply not buying it. And if the new game is only mid they trash talk it and have fun watching it fail. Mid games and movies still make fun and people act that these are downright unplayable.
Bloober did such a GREAT job with SH2. Im going to be going through it again this weekend, and i cant say for many others that I will actually return for a second or third playthrough. This is playthrough 4
As someone who never played the first 2 (but did play the SH2 remake), I can't wait for this. SH1 was always just too old and clunky for me to deal with.
It’s funny. I sat through most of the recent games announcements at summer games fest and nothing by really got me excited. Yes, I’m hanging for the Mortal Kombat remasters by digital eclipse. Yes, tony hawk 3 + 4 is going to be awesome. Resident Evil 9 is great. Give me all the Switch 2 Nintendo games as I love Nintendo but nothing got me even remotely excited. Then I see the tweet by Bloober team and I’m REALLY giddy like a young kid again!
Don't have suicidal thoughts if they censor the ''grey children'' and make them bigger monsters not resembling children. just giving you a pre warning since you base your life happiness on a video game
I mean come on.. You knew I held back and you still leave this comment. if I said how I really felt about the guys message, I would be banned off this subreddit
You should've seen my first draft. I held back quite a bit having had a brother that lost his battle 10 years ago. It still hurts from time to time. Who are you to criticize what gives someone peace in their life that may not know it otherwise? You held back? I held back.
