Does Silent Hill f(ail) to be a Horror Game?
11After many, many years there's finally a totally new Silent Hill game that just came out, Silent Hill f. A game that was already looked at weirdly from the start, but now it's even more controversial. Is it a "true" Silent Hill game? Is it actually a Soulslike? Does it have too much action? Is it... scary?
As a fan of Higurashi (and to a degree also Umineko...) I was excited to see that Ryukishi is writing for this game and my hype went super duper through the roof, so how's the story? Can it come close to Higurashi, his best work? Well, gotta watch the video for that... I'm not even sure why I write desciptions on Youtube sometimes, I don't think anyone reads them. Just gotta put the classical buzzwords like essay, retrospective or review in here too. Even though it can't be a retrospective since it came out like... 5 days ago. But retro is the past, and even 5 days is the past then so... It's how some people still can't believe the PS3 is also retro.
All the footage used from the classic Silent Hill games (1, 2, 4) are from WorldofLongplays and its user Spazbo4.
