Nice, Revelations is actually one of my favorites. I had this with the second analogstick add-on for the 3DS, i wish more games would have made use of it.
This is not simply a āHeisenberg thinksā situation; this is how it is. Silent Hillās events happen because of 3 things: the cult of the town, known as the Order; the land being an inherently spiritual/supernatural place; and the minerals and flora indigenous to the region creating/magnifying hallucinations and deep dream cycles.
All 3 are happening (or perhaps only one that is fueling the belief that the other two are true, itās been left ambiguous) that make the events of the games occur. It is a cosmic hotspot. The town itself has attained a form of what we might call āsentienceā, and it is emphasized throughout the series that it is because of the place.
The town and the land itās on are unique. Anything similar that has taken place outside of it has been because of someone with a tie to the town in some way being affected, but theyāve all been local, each one relatively close to Silent Hill itself.
Everything shared so far about this latest game is indicating that this is no longer the case. Not only is it not showing any direct ties to Silent Hill itself, but the fact that itās taking place before the events of the rest of the series means it canāt even be justified to say thereās a connection to the town or that its power has grown such that it can stretch its influence across the planet. None of these occurrences that are being shown should be possible anywhere else at this point in the series timeline, not without taking away the uniqueness of the titular town. Thatās the issue. Itās not just that itās not happening in Silent Hill, itās that itās happening before Silent Hill, before the events that made it come alive and be able to extend itself to other places. Therefore, it either has no connection to the rest of the series (drop the name), or it is establishing that Silent Hill itself is not unique in the things it does (spoils the importance of the events of at least 3 of the past games).
Except, they didnāt name it Raccoon City. And none of the lore that justifies the game is even tied to Raccoon City. Silent Hill is a whole different beast. The town itself is the focal point of all the happenings in the series, and anything that happens outside of it happens because of a direct connection to it. Resident Evil almost did this with RE4, but they kept the ties to the rest of the lore as revealed in the last 3rd of the game, and each time they have gone in a new direction, theyāve maintained those ties without severing the continuity of the lore (although they have made it more complex as a result).
People keep saying this and reveal that they are missing the point. Unless the information released about this game so far has been an outright lie, nothing that can happen in it can justify the decision made to set it in a different place during a point in time that makes a proper connection to the rest of the series impossible without taking away from what made the events of previous entries significant. Unless they are lying, thereās nothing Iām going to see in actually playing the game that fixes that problem. And since Silent Hill is a series I follow, not just because of how fun it is and how scary it is, but because of the story, this disruption to the story is going to negatively affect my view of the game, irrespective of how great any other part of it would have been if not for this issue. Itās already a done deal; waiting to actually play the game makes no difference, unless what weāve been told about it so far is somehow deceptive.
I think you should forward this to Konami and Iām sure theyāll drop the project for you

If that means we can get a new Castlevania Game instead, Iām gonna fight with you @Heisenberg
Everything that happened outside of Silent Hill happened because of The Order which resided in Silent Hill but expanded into other towns nearby such as Shepherdās Glen. Thus spreading the townās influence to draw others like Alex Shepard or Murphy to the town.
Yeah, right. If they had the intelligence to listen to me, they wouldnāt have wasted their time remaking a game that had no business being remade.
Not just the Order. Their existence, and connection to some of the people in question, was why the town reached out to particular people, but it wasnāt the Order making it happen. This applies particularly to Heather. And Walter may have been raised by the cult and was using their ritual, but he wasnāt a part of them when he alter South Ashfield.
Donāt look at me, theyāre the ones making poor decisions. They could have and should have made a proper sequel ages ago, but they wasted their time with P.T., Hills, some little side games that didnāt count, and then a needless remake.
I donāt know anything about Castlevania, is it bad?
You should know that Silent Hill 2 Remake is a modern masterpiece and a complete love letter to the original. It has a user score of 9.2 on metacritic. I really canāt recommend you playing this game enough, itās truly amazing, especially for fans.

Imagine a generational feud between a family and Dracula and somewhere between all that Bram Stokers Dracula novel happens.

That and itās implied that the original game co exists with the remake as weird as it sounds without spoiling anything.
Nothing said here is relevant. The original Silent Hill 2 was already a masterpiece, it is its own love letter to itself, and a remake should never have even been entertained, let alone executed. This is a hill (no pun) that I will not only die on, I will take absolutely everybody else with me in the process.
Press F to pay respects 
Silent Hill

ESBR rating for Silent Hill f.
Potential spoilers.
Rating Summary
This is a survival-horror action game in which players assume the role of a student confronting supernatural entities in a 1960s Japanese mountain town. From a third-person perspective, players explore the town, solve puzzles, interact with characters, and battle enemy creatures (e.g., humanoid monsters, mutants, mythical creatures). Players use axes, crowbars, knives, and spears to defend against and kill enemy creatures in melee-style combat. Blood-splatter effects occur frequently as characters are attacked; several areas depict large bloodstains in the environment and near corpses. Some enemy attacks can result in playersā character getting impaled in the neck and/or getting their faces ripped apart. Cutscenes sometimes depict gore and more intense acts of violence: a character burned alive inside a cage; a woman branded by a hot iron; entrails and sinew displayed on serving platters in fantastical celebration/ceremony; a character sawing off her own arm; a character slicing off portions of a characterās face during a ritual. Concept art depicts a nude mannequin-like character, with exposed buttocks and partially exposed breasts; the character appears in a creature-like form throughout the game.

We are just days away from the release of Assassinās Creed Shadows, and while itāll be some time before I get to playing it - about a year or more at the rate Iām going - Iām excited for it to finally be here. This is gonna be the closest Iāve been to playing a new entry since I first began the series, so Iāll be a little more āin-stepā with the rest of the player community than I have been in the past, relatively speaking.
Iām not really too curious about the gameplay, I already know Iām gonna like it. Two protagonists, one for the stealth of the classic games, one for the one-man-army gameplay of the most recent games, a play style I usually used in the older games anyway because even when the combat has been at its suckiest (which has been considerable), Assassinās Creed fights are just too fun to pass up by employing the Hitman method of sneaking around and only eliminating your assigned target. Whichever way I go with it, itās gonna be a fun play for me.
No, Iām mainly curious about who the modern day animus user is going to be. Iām assuming Basim, but it could be William Miles as well, or someone new. Iām also curious about how Those Who Came Before will affect the story, as they always do. Word is that the historical segments of the game wonāt be driven by the search for a Piece of Eden or a Precursor site, but we know that they are going come across at least one or both of the two. But, will the modern day animus user be trying to find such things through viewing the memory as per usual, or will there be another reason? And how will such encounters play out? Iām assuming creatures/incidents of ancient Japanese folklore will be revealed as First Civ trickery like in Odyssey, so will that mean that weāll have some Inuyasha-esque demon hunting? Will some ancient samurai sword be revealed as a Sword of Eden (Katana of Eden?)?
As usual, gonna spoil myself on the story through the tv tropes page like I always have, because I canāt wait that long to know the story, but hopefully Iāll be ready to jump in with everyone else by the time the next big entry arrives, or perhaps the one after that.

I guess thatās the game Iāve been waiting for since 1.6 was replaced with some shit.
But in 2025 they mightāve done better graphics and physics, even for remake.
Remakes serve exactly this purpose, donāt they?
Though seems like the developers of it are not the very same creators.
Okay, I still take it
