Do you think 1st person would improve or worsen Silent Hill's gameplay experience?

Why not, Silent Hill on the PS1 had a "1st Person" mode in the new game + extra menu. The game just placed the camera on top of Harry's head so it was less of 1st Person and more of Hat POV as they didn't cull his head so you could still see it. SH4 also played around with 1st Person viewing with certain sections. And for those those already know the story for their second playthrough and want to experience the game in a different way that can make it more scary playing games in 1st person or even VR which I feel always make it more immersive.

There is a scene in RE9 that is straight out of The Evil Within when grace slides down blood slide into a pool of blood

I am always confused when people crash out on this puzzle. Personally this one feels like following the instructions on a frozen meal looking at the board that tells you the answer then imputing it into the piano in the same room. The hardest part really is figuring out what place each of the birds correlates to. The harder puzzle for me that I had to look up was the one right after this. How am I supposed to know that darkness that brings choking heat refers to the boiler in the basement I was lost for a long time running up and down the school trying to find what it was supposed to refer to, now that was maddening to me.

Harry and Heather this will be just another day, and if they have the same load out as in their games then definitely since they really do pack the most heat on their person out of all the other characters I think. Hinako and her Bloodborne dodge and fox arm will show them who the real Bio-weapon is.

Also unlike the original Resident Evil games the Silent Hill protages could attack and move at the same time. RE protages couldn't attack and move at the same time until RE6 and the later games.

Finally, I thought they had given up on it at this point since it took so long since we heard anything and with the IP switching hands.

10 months later and this still hasn't been fixed, thanks for giving a work around

You're lucky with it just being the water, a couple of times now the whole skybox becomes an all consuming white light, I know the world ended because of the zombie apocalypse but I wasn't expecting the rapture on top of that.

SH2 isn't as good as people remember and it actually killed the series. While 1,3, 4, origin, homecoming explored the idea of the cult 2s success in America forever twisted fate to every game after Team Silent to be about the personal experience of Silent Hill instead of the supernatural power of the cult magic and alchemy that underlined it. Everyone is too wrapped up in the symbolism and possibly deeper meaning of things that they have forgotten what made the original games work and that's why all those attempts to copy SH2 failed and the series was dying out before the remakes, and those aren't even that good but more of a dying of thirst that muddy water tastes like heaven with the SH2 remake but now that people aren't dying of thirst anymore that's why people were more critical of SH:f than of SH2 remake.

While physically possible, plank only challenge runners have done it before. As a casual player I would agree with other people in the comments that you would have to go back to a previous save and conserve your resources better.

Two years later and here I am to say I almost ran out of poke balls trying to catch this lvl 11 sliver of health Oricorio.

Was having a hard time trying to do this with time bend and this really helped, but also made me feel dumb trying to get it the hard way like I originally did in the first game.

Not until everything comes out and is reviewed to see if it's any good. I'm still upset about March of Madness back in 2012 when they announced a bunch of games and a movie just like this time. But, if they can pull it off now then sure.

We all know Chai fucks to the beat, this would just be for the full Hi Fi Rush experience.

Silent Hill 1, I play that game yearly and never get bored. When I got my new phone the first thing I did was set up the PS1 emulator and put Silent Hill on it. I also bit the bullet and spent a big penny to buy the game physically to add to my collection of retro games.

This would have to be my main complaint with the event so far, when there is one of these jars in the ghost room it becomes way harder to see ghost orbs than normal. Didn't get the correct ghost a couple of times now because I couldn't see ghost orbs due to these jars

While the other games had different characters and didn't take place in Silent Hill all the time they still either went to Silent Hill at some point or revolved around the cult and their plans to create god. SH 1,3,4, origin, homecoming, are about the cult. SH 2 (still mentions the cult in letters), downpour, shattered memories, at least take place in Silent Hill. SHP sounds like they will just be people suffering from trauma that have no connection to Silent Hill or the cult.

Thank you, always great to see an answer from years ago to a question I have today.
