Wrong. This is a lie that autistic fans have been telling themselves for years.
Konami, the indie company.
I compare Condemned because it manages to have fun combat while maintaining a horror atmosphere. No janky fixed camera and retarded swinging animations necessary. Konami has a problem with trying to appease a tiny minority of retards at the expense of quality design. We have people unironically claiming that the gif I posted a while back was the peak of the genre lol. The reason these companies keep shitting out remakes is because fanshits just want the same thing, forever. If Silent Hill 5 was released today, they'd just be claiming that it isn't as good as Silent Hill 2. Apparently nothing will ever be as good as that one fucking game.
Yes but the video posted earlier is something else, it looks like someone running out of vram because they have the settings too high for their PC to handle.
Maybe art house is a more accurate description for Team Silent, but my point stands. They were given small budgets to make niche horror games out of broom closet. Like I said, they had great ideas for horror, bad gameplay designers.
It wasn't scary because of the bad combat. It was scary because of the thick atmosphere and overall sense of dread as things got progressively more fucked up.
Original Silent Hill 2 artist Masahiro Ito didn't want to remake the survival horror masterpiece, but decided to cooperate to "make sure the core was preserved"

Silent Hill 2 Remake is just months from release, but original art designer Masahiro Ito says he almost rejected the chance to work on it entirely.
"Back in late 2019 or 2020, he says that [Konami series producer] Motoi Okamoto reached out to him via Twitter, as it was called back then, and asked whether he would be willing to cooperate in a Silent Hill 2 Remake," Ito-san's translator said at the Tokyo Silent Hill 2 Remake preview event on August 8. "At the time, he had felt that there was no need to do such a thing. So his original plan was to reject the idea."
However, he soon had a change of heart. "Even if he were to reject the idea, he said he felt that there was always the chance that Konami would be open to creating a remake even without his support.
"Rather than let the project go without him, he felt it was best for him to cooperate and to do his best to make sure that the core of what made Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill 2, was preserved in the best way possible. There was the initial idea of preserving the core but giving it a new coat of paint," he says of his reasons to work on the project despite not feeling a remake was all too necessary.
Ito-san then addressed the different content, stylistic, and design changes that had been tabled for the remake and how it differs from what the game turned out to be. "The original idea that Konami and Bloober Team had in mind may have been a little different from what we ended up with right now. But [Masahiro Ito] believes that by cooperating [in the remake], he was able to inject the core principle of what Silent Hill 2 is and preserve it in a way that is brushed up and polished, so that players of the current generation will be able to appreciate what was crucial to Silent Hill 2."
Silent Hill 2 Remake launches on October 8 on PC and PS5.
Deus ex is a shit game worst immersive sim Fortnite is better

Yes
It's the standard perspective used in most games nowadays, so it appeals to the mass market of consoomers who are afraid to try anything different.
Wrong! Real people are weird, and lumpy, and have faces like melted cheese, trust me.
I know they can't make women anymore but even Eddie's face is a lot fatter than his body is represented. The original is much better proportioned, he's a young fat kid not a middle aged obese dude.
Blobberteam already used different approaches in their recent games. Also consider the influence of P.T. "Mass market" changed many times since the advent of over the shoulder camera.
