All I can say, you will be surprised how good the game looks. Only James's face is a question mark, the rest they nailed including the creepy feel. They stayed true to the original and didnt do as many deviations like the RE remake games did.

If the game is double the length, it's hard to believe there are no deviations.

Still, with Akira onboard, it can't be a total failure. I'm sure he's giving appropriate input.

How about Maria's face?

All look great and faithful. Just donno why they cant nail James or maybe theres a proper reason why they dont go for similar likeness.

Reminder to lower your expectations.

Short Message was a disappointment.
Ascension was unimaginably bad.
There is no reason to believe Silent Hill will ever be good again.

Short Message was good. Not amazing, but not bad either.

Do you know if a demo is scheduled before the release date ?

I'm expecting an absolute fucking turd of a show, full of bullshit microtransaction pushing, and other ways to fleece the audience of their money. Not sure how my expectations could be any lower, unless they plan on just murdering Akira Yamaoka live on stage.

No idea. Im actually really wondering what they will show because they sent out like 2hrs of footage. Release date will be shown at State of Play.

 

[NeverYouMind]

I am more excited for this than the PlayStation State of Play! If they have uncut gameplay segment on display I will be satisfied.

Thank you! I can't wait!!!

2 hours!!!

Did they show Eddie and Angela? If they did, how were their faces and performances?

So, in your opinion, the graphics is the same as the initial teaser ? Because in the combat trailer something was in some ways different ? I don't want to say downgraded but less "cinematic" maybe ? I know that the reason could be an old build, maybe!

Akira means jack shit outside of the music and this has been made apparent several times already.

As for the James likeness I think a large part of it is they want to completely supplant the original cast moving forward after all the drama and to completely reclaim the game for themselves. They signed their rights away legally sure but in terms of actual mindshare the OG cast still takes up a huge chunk of SH2's legacy.

and yes Konami is that petty.

My bad man, not Akira. He doesn't do creative input, like you mentioned. I meant Ito. He's even making changes to the original he believes to be improvements, so we'll see how much that counts for.

You know, I had actually completely forgotten about all that. For a professional corporation, it is wild that every flagship title of theirs is marred by controversy.
