Official Silent Hill Discussion **

[Naked Shia]

This is a thing of beauté. So interesting and scary. Beautiful too. And really moody. Not to mention it means silent Hill Will be a True AAA game again thanks to kojima.

That ****ing avy man

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

You must not play a lot of games, lol.

I really don't. Just about everything being first person has made this time pretty much a nightmare for me.

 

[Benstamania]

I can get tired of FPS.. But first person adventure games are a different breed. Often you get more of the game in first person if that's how they intend it.

 

[CapedCrusader14]

You do know there's more to it then just going in circles right? You really need to pay attention and investigates things closely. There's a whole puzzle to be solved there.

Yeah I know that, me and my friend had been attempting to solve it for hours but we grew tired. In the end we just had better things to do, we tried lots of solutions that worked for others, some worked and some didn't.

 

[TheDreamMaster]

I haven't beaten it yet. I can't figure it out. Its still so creepy though.

 

[Rodrigo90]

So how would you guys like the final game to be?

 

[Quasimod0]

I want the final game to be just like this. The first person view definitely makes it creepier. I would have been more calm with a 3rd person view.

 

[Rodrigo90]

I agree.

The horror was just so well done with the first person perspective. You're too **** scared to look around anywhere lol

 

[ProjectPat2280]

I thought the demo was horrifying. I audibly screamed a few times and I was playing in broad daylight with my sister in the room AFTER I had watched a walkthrough video of the damn thing.

But as to the final game, I want it to look like classic SH.

I honestly don't know if ill even get the final thing. I enjoy creepy stuff, but that, that was too much. I'm not going near that demo again.

 

[Rodrigo90]

It's the first time in a long time that I've nearly had a heart attack through a game. Honest to God, I couldn't bare to watch anymore after that ghost face lol

To keep it fresh and non repetitive, they should combine that aspect within a primary third person perspective.

SH4 did it, but it was nowhere near as powerful as this experience.

Holy crap.
I just watched the first 15 seconds on Youtube and decided to try it on my own. But after reading this...well...
I spent so many years without having nightmares...I don't know if I wanna take my chances, and I'm always watching creepy stuff too.

Haha yea dude. I was looking at some screens online of various things and good lord there were some creepy images. Thank god I didn't come across those during my play through

 

[Soapy]

Peekaboo.

Spoiler

 

[the last son]

When does this come out? Graphics look amazing.

 

[the last son]

First person is the way to go for horror games. Outlast was the scariest game I've ever played and this game looks great too

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Peekaboo.

Spoiler

Yep. That's one of the images I was talking about.

When does this come out? Graphics look amazing.

There's been no word on that. It's safe to assume it's a full year or 2 away considering the dev team hasn't even decided if the game will be first person or third.

 

[Nathan]

Screw this Demo. Screw it hard. I played this with 3 other people. My sister, her husband and a girlfriend of my sister. We were all terrified.

 

[Rodrigo90]

Yes....That's what we want to hear

It's seems to have perfectly captured the creepy "I can't play this anymore" feelings the old games used to give you

 

[Poetic Chaos]

I almost wanna get a PS4 for this demo..

 

[TheDreamMaster]

I tried it drunk. I was so lost, and so scared.

 

[eternalinferno]

I'm playing this teaser for the second time and I'm still scared as ****.

 

[TheDreamMaster]

I finally beat the teaser. Wow was that something. Ghost caught me a few times but I made it. I feel so accomplished.

 

[Rodrigo90]

So we agree? 1st person is essential?

 

[Nathan]

F**king Lisa man... I've never heard my sister shriek that loud. I really think first person is essential. It just ups the terror factor, if you're basically in the shoes of the protagonist, and not just a 3rd party, looking over his shoulder.

And some things just work better, like the words constantly changing, when you weren't looking. That wouldn't have worked as well in 3rd person. You'd have to turn the entire character around in order to get the camera angle away from the wall, and then turn the whole character around again, back to the wall. And there's a part where you have to do it several times, because each time you look away, a letter disappears.
