[@SleepyBoi_9000]

The combat looked rough. The puzzle stuff was cool.

[@mrpussinboots4252]

Im dumbfounded at the outrage. Silent hill 2 isn't built around a great combat system, combat/gameplay takes a backseat in favour of mystery, layered storytelling, themes, puzzles and exploration. The horror and suspense derives from an incapable undepowered protagonist. Im not sure what people expected going into this, if anything it remains faithful. The enemy designs are great, the aesthetic and art direction is stellar, the story is yet to be revealed and how much tweaking may have gone into it. But overall it looks promising and most importantly FAITHFUL.

[@iitzfizz]

The QTEs worry me too but yeah the gunplay looked janky

[@beardalaxy]

@@mrpussinboots4252 silent hill 2's main point definitely isn't about combat. that's why releasing a trailer specifically about combat is a bad move. they're trying to make the combat stand out more than it did in the original.

@@iitzfizz Tbf in the original if you grabbed you had to button mash anyway.

[@Peasham]

​@@mrpussinboots4252You're right, Silent Hill 2 isn't built around a combat system. Its combat system is still better I'm every way than the remake's. Furthermore, if you cared about faithfulness you'd have dropped out 2 years ago when the first trailer showed James as overly emotional and crying at everything, which ruins basically the entire game, but that doesn't seem to bother you for some reason.

[@Reuraku]

The funny thing is that clunky controls, janky animations, camera angles and limited render distance, of the original added to the horror of it. The janky animations added something unnatural and unnerving about enemies that wasn't just how they looked, the clunky controls made you feel vulnerable since you had to worry about being able to fight or run which was compounded by the tight hallways, the limited draw distance is how we got the fog that added a creepy atmosphere, and the static camera angles made you unsure of what was coming as you could hear the radio so you knew there was something but didn't know what. They took the bad things and made it work toward the goal of horror. All these things also give a disconnect from James as you aren't seeing things from his perspective, and seeing as it's is like James is telling the player a story (incorrectly) it fits the narrative. Now that they are able to update and remove all of these things smoothing out the edges it looses some of it's charm. Now don't get me wrong these animations still look bad but not in the same creepy way the original did. This also looks like they are hiking up the action in place of the horror, seeing a nurse hop over a chest high wall as James gets headshots with the shotgun does not inspire confidence in a horror game.

[@beardalaxy]

the voice acting too... no doubt it is going to be technically "better" than the original, but those voices were a bit strange on purpose... they sound like just some person talking instead of an actor.

[@Peasham]

Yeah, the original looked good and was high quality, the jank was because they figured out it'd be scarier. This just looks like they couldn't do any better.

[@billybro1403]

Depressed post-Raccoon City Leon S Kennedy on low budget

[@mcbeav]

the nurses look like the jack in the box mascot

[@afonsius7907]

Im gonna be honest, the melee system looks pretty good overall, Jame's swings feel weighty and the reaction of the monsters to the impact feels apropriate, the monster designs also look pretty good overall, what is cause for concern is the weapon sounds, the pistol especially, and the lack of oomf some of the shots have, especially the shotgun, both times we see it shoot it hits the nurses shoulder with like no reaction, some of the pistol shots had more reaction. That kick animation is also iffy. Honestly I have no problem with no release date, some people seem like they want this game to fail but I truly want it to be something special, hopefully they listen to the fan feedback and improve it cuz graphics wise it looks pretty spot on!

[@niconii25252]

Incredible, someone actually reasonable in these comments. The remake looks mostly fine and will be an enjoyable experience, so long as you don't let people bitch and moan in your ear about how it'd doomed for failure

[@afonsius7907]

I am cautiously optimistic. I feel like there's more good then bad with what was shown overall and theres great potential here, constante negative feedback with no constructive critiscism won't do us any favours. We need to point out what can be reasonably changed without falling into just pure insults if we wish Bloober to listen to feedback.

I don't think it looks bad. I just don't think it looks like a classic Silent Hill experience. Someone should do a video contrasting this trailer with the original SH2 trailer, and explain why the emphasis on atmosphere, mystery, and story was what made the original so popular, and its trailer so intriguing. This new trailer seems to suggest that the game is about killing monsters. The original game and its trailer made it clear that the human characters and their stories were what the game was about.

[@19HajimeSaitou91]

​​@@schillvillewhat's wrong with the Demon's Souls remake? I noticed that the intro sucked really hard compared to the original and new Tower Knight theme (ho-hoho-ho-ho) sucked ass. But nothing more

[@schillville]

​@@19HajimeSaitou91 You can call nitpicking, but I think they tried to apply the Gothic/Epic medieval themes too hard ignoring the original intent. BP interviews made it very clear they see Souls games as "Hard Game where you die a lot, just gameplay, nothing else" and ignored the art direction. Everything has to look epic, from graphics to the soundtrack when the original intent was to portray a sad and decaying world ( again, recurrent Souls games theme ) To mention some things: Fat officials were supposed to represent greed and oppression, in the remake they are gross and sloppy. Also for some reason, every monster has to be gross ( something Miyazaki tries to evade ). The entire Latria section was botched, from sound design to visual. Fool's idol is an angry Hindu deity now, instead of, you know, a fool's idol? Overall, I understand DS Remake has to be impressive and show the PS5 power so they can sell consoles, I just don't think this is the right game for it. To be fair, I don't think a remake should be the main title for a console launch either, I see it more as a red flag for this generation than anything else. But I'm not a gatekeeper, I know most players just wanted to play the grandfather of hard games in next-gen graphics, so good for them. The thing with remakes is that once they are out, the original starts to fade because they are not getting ports in the future, just the remakes will.

[@KohaiJr]

It looks good. I think people are missing the combat in SH2 was wonky on purpose. James isn't a member of STARS or something, he's just suppose to be an average dude. If they had gun combat that was like a twitch shooter, I'd be more worried.

I'm keeping an open mind here with SH2 Remake. I just think that we have been VERY spoiled by developers like Naughty Dog-their games just have such satisfying gameplay with lots, and lots of animations. That is crazy! Here on the other hand, I can tell that the melee weapons will have three swings every time: short, medium, and a long/strong one. That's it. Even though it's hard to swallow this pill, it's sad to know that Bloober Team is not Naughty Dog, nor modern RE team A. I kind of liked how different and re-imagined the monsters look, even after being shot. Some of them behave like mannequins, well, weren't there mannequins? I kind of see how they'd be broken in pieces with shots. Hopefully everything ends up being good. Just one thing that really annoyed me was the sound design, SPECIALLY the pistol.

I agree that it looks iffy, doesn't mean that they can improve it.

No, no the combat does not look better than the original. The original had good animations that conveyed clumsiness, this game has bad animations that convey action hero horseshit. Furthermore, the first trailer already dashed all hope of a faithful remake in terms of tone and story.

Can't wait for a qorse remake than RE3 WOOO

[@jamesbrassfield8409]

I cant wait to play this game

[@pinkswimmy2666]

How tf did they make SH2 remake look like a RE2 remake?

[@love.module]

You can slowly see Bawk's smile disappear only to be forced back out near the end because he forgot to breathe cause his raspatory system failed.

[@yrh002b8]

That's why I love Bawk reaction lol. Remind me of when he react to ReVerse.

[@roboticninjachop]

Am I the only one who thinks the silent hill 2 remake looks awful 💀

[@IcaroRamosDM]

It doesn't "awful", but definitely it looks bad. Specially because it seems that they are going for an action oriented remake

[@GriffithPillow]

@@IcaroRamosDMbloober team deserves the hate

[@user-tq8hs8qy2l]

It ain't finished

[@Naimskus]

It looks like it would be in the beginning stage of production.

[@roboticninjachop]

@@user-tq8hs8qy2l yea obviously but going off what we’ve seen so far I’m not so optimistic. The gameplay looks really janky and even that little writing on the wall “you reap what you sow” gives me the feeling that this game is really going to lack all of the nuance of the original story

[@NicolasMartinez-dn4yy]

Damn looks like this shit.

[@actionskank1]

I loved the resident evil remake style but man, something about the creature designs seem... off, almost like they are missing the grittyness and dirty look that makes silent hill what it is. Hopefully being "in development" means it will sit longer in the oven and inevitably become a remake that can sit among the likes of deadspace and resident evil

[@highwind9984]

10 dollar steam game hahaha, good one

[@SwordfighterRed]

They did put a lot of emphasis on the combat in that trailer. That was never a super big highlight of 2 so I'm not too worried about it. If they can nail all the more subtle things somehow, all the sound design, the whole feeling of Silent Hill 2 with despair and decay... that'll probably be more impactful in the grand scheme of things. It's Bloober Team, so I suppose the odds are against, but I'm hoping they'll surprise pleasantly. That's all I can really hope for from this.

Piramid Head's Mod for Resident Evil 2 Remake, that's what I saw💀

[@markwheeler4245]

Why have unique games lost their identity chasing whats popular!? This looks just like RE which works in RE but I want SH I want cool camera angles and dont want to see mash X to escape grab etc, button prompts are a thing I dislike in many games seeing I get close for e.g and see a Square pop on screen breaks immersion I already know its Square to grab attack or whatever just something that annoys me, wonder if James will say things during puzzle sequences like 'perhaps I should try this' u know like in GOW Ragnarok u get told the solution after a few seconds? James shuffling walk animations weird, I need to see more just things I'm thinking

[@_hank9508]

It's weird. I recognize the areas in the trailer but without the fixed camera it looks so strangely unfamiliar. RE2 Remake didn't feel like that somehow.

[@angelesblancosincofficial4756]

Love the cut scene but the main game just need more work .

[@metalgearfan9802]

It looks like it could be fun in terms of gameplay, seeing how it basically just looks like the modern RE remakes, but I just don't see it being anywhere near on the level of the original. The original game was just lightning in a bottle. Everything from the muddy ps2 visuals benefitting the atmosphere and look of the game, to the weird voice acting, the sound effects, OST, it just really can't be surpassed.

[@rickhernandez7631]

If it releases December 31st 2025, they still got plenty of time to tune up the graphics.

[@Hennersy]

Graphics? They're not the issue. Use some critical thinking and stop being a typical stupid gamer that bases everything on looks.

[@SlyC]

They wont

[@jmadis1992]

Nice new mod for RE2R.

[@Rio..o7..]

reminds me of the downcoming era

[@Berserker006]

All set for a 2026 release?

[@EarthboundX]

Eh, thought it looked solid enough. Combat has never been the strong suit of SH2, or any SH game really.

[@BathrobeHero]

bloober should've really tried making a game with combat before SH2, you can really tell they don't know how to do it.

[@spiralpower1620]

This really could've been solved or at least mitigated by starting with SH1 first.

[@aklu5872]

@@spiralpower1620If only SH1 was more popular in the series.

[@fatalkookie]

I think the trailer looks great but - probably some higher ups - wanted to show off some "cool stuff" to a portion of players that are unfamiliar with the franchise. Adding to that a general consensus that bloober is not experienced in making games with a lot of fighting. That's why we have so much combat shown here. It is fair to give them some space to work on this thing and give constructive criticism. Even if their games are often undercooked - maybe the devs will surprise us. One can only hope. Making a remake of one of the best games in history is challenging and terrifying. Bloober definitely needs to work on their writing. They are used to making whole stories from scratch. This time they have an amazing one in their hands. Don't change too much there - only add on top of it. Refine the gameplay. Environments and characters look great - that's their strong side.

[@J3ss4u]

Insane copium right here

[@Soapy_Papoose]

Those gun sound effects must have come from nerf guns and dollar store cap guns.

[@Greyy66]

What is scary is that this is what they showed us , this is supposed to be what they want us to see , this looks really rough

[@atomicfurball]

Man so many people on the copium. "Man its in development". If your gonna show something don't show a turd then hope it will turn into an enchanted castle with rainbows. Keep expectations in check if its crap 2 years from now then u won't be too disappointed

[@blueflare3848]

I’m willing to give it the benefit of the doubt since it might be an early build, but if that’s the case then why show it off? Or at the very least, why not have a disclaimer saying it’s an early version of the game and that the final version might look different?

[@reddie1705]

I think Silent Hill Homecoming's got combat that is slightly more interesting than others, but seeing it here really makes me scared that the game we've all been so excited for is about to flop HARD

[@nrg6245]

I can’t wait for this amazing game. People can hate. I trust Konami and I hope it’s a passion project bc it would definitely benefit from some really thoughtful development.

[@blueflare3848]

Don’t trust Konami. They’ve proven time and time again that they shouldn’t be trusted with things.

[@BrianOblivionB]

"Trust" and "Konami" don't match. "Gambling" and "Konami" do match.

[@barney10240]

I want to defend this game so bad, but bobber not even try😂

[@iitzfizz]

QTEs noooo

[@paradoxxikal7327]

My biggest issue with the game is the aggressive camera movements in combat, especially with melee, that’s way too much. The blood also looks kinda odd, just sorta foggy. I think the trailer screwed up a few things up with the combat scenes, the aggressive camera and music make things seem way more action-oriented than they’ll likely end up being.

[@jimmyjam1710]

Regardless of any trailer or news or review I will 100% buy this on release day. However this did not look very impressive

[@addictedtoRS]

I'm usually never cynical about games before they came out, but this genuinely looks like a Wii/360/PS3 port of Silent Hill 2, in every aspect I've seen so far. Hmm.. Hope it is improved before release.

[@jonahbrown5669]

Visually, it doesn't look like a 360/ps3 game at all. It looks like a PS4 game, which is bad since it's apparently a PS5 exclusive

[@raulconty7229]

Should’ve let Silent Hill alone. Why Bloober team of all!?

[@gpao604]

Kinda afraid but we don't know But the first game first person looks interessting 👌 😅

[@drifterz2578]

Look like a fanmade game with unreal engine free assets 😂😂

[@panyarou]

Clearly they thought the combat was good enough to be showcased, so I highly doubt we'll see any improvements.

[@bored3359]

i am on my hands and knees begging them not to fuck up the remake PLEASEEEE🙏

Too late for that, mate. Too late... 😢
