"Silent Hill 2 Remake is an absolute masterpiece"

[Morgan]

From a reddit user who wrote that he/she has a review copy:

Game is absolute perfection, there is absolute no "filler" no boring parts, combat is awesome (i am playing on hard/hard) and the hard puzzles are SUPER complicated, you need critical thinking and a lot of patience to solve them.

Enemies are aggresive and challeging but the game has "fair" difficulty, nothing super mega complicated like profesional on RE4make or Inferno Mode from RE3 Idk if item numbers are affected by difficulties.

The atmosphere, music, sound effects, graphics, everything is TOP QUALITY, the game has a lot of surprises, more areas, rooms, puzzles to explore, i got 2 new weapons (not gonna spoil).

People who played to original are going to LOVE this game, this game SURPASSES the original one, the OG one is an absolute masterpiece but this game did something incredible: game is beyond perfect! Re4make surpassed the original, SH2 remake does the same: ABSOLUTE TOP QUALITY
10/10 game

If you don't like horror games, thinking, puzzles, atmosphere, lore, reading and everything from a classic 90's horror game, you not gonna like it. SH2 hardcore fans are going to love this.

It seems that game is going to be a Game of the Year !

Sounds totally unbiased

I wish people would stop calling every game "Game of the Year"

It's a remake of SH2, it was niche then and it's niche now. Even if it's the best Silent Hill that ever Hilled in Silence it isn't going to win Game of the Year unless they specifically create a category for remakes of 20+ year old games.

So basically it was a 10 out of 10 IMDB review, as in not to be trusted.

you know which other games were supposed to be "game of the year" according to "journos"? every other mediocre game that inserted a bit of activist content that flopped or barely make even.

"concord" maybe is the biggest and most recent example of that, but every recent game from ubisoft did that too: paid a lot for "mkt" and got a lot of fake positive feedback, and then when honest reviews were possible, their scam became exposed, and crashed as expected.

this remake will probably will also barely make even, because it isnt as extremely bad as those examples, but it also isnt a game that respected the lore or the original appearance of characters. it also barely added improvements, but did added a lot of meaningless, or barely relevant changes. sh2r is overpriced, relative to its present condition.

Why did the movies do as well as they did when they also didn't respect source material? When friends told me they liked them, I just told them that they would have liked the games a lot more, which is always the case, but the movies seemed particularly egregious.

I asked Chat GPT, here is what I got :

🌟 A Masterpiece Reimagined: Silent Hill 2 Remake 🌟

From the moment I stepped into the hauntingly beautiful world of the "Silent Hill 2 Remake," I knew I was experiencing something truly special. This game is not just a remake; it's a breathtaking reimagining of a classic that elevates the original's brilliance to astonishing new heights.

The graphics? Absolutely stunning! Every fog-laden street and eerie shadow feels like a work of art, immersing you in a visual experience that beautifully balances horror and nostalgia. The character models are incredibly detailed, allowing you to connect deeply with their struggles and emotions.

The sound design is nothing short of phenomenal. From the chilling soundtrack to the spine-tingling ambient sounds, every auditory element enhances the atmosphere, wrapping you in a cocoon of dread and intrigue. I found myself holding my breath during pivotal moments, completely captivated by the tension that permeates every scene.

And let’s talk about the story—oh, the story! It’s a masterclass in narrative depth and psychological horror. The way it explores themes of love, loss, and guilt is profoundly moving. The character development is rich, and each interaction feels genuine, drawing you further into the psychological labyrinth that is Silent Hill. It’s a haunting tale that stays with you long after the credits roll.

The gameplay has been revamped while staying true to its roots. The controls feel smooth and responsive, making exploration and combat both thrilling and terrifying. Puzzles are cleverly designed, ensuring that your brain stays engaged without ever feeling frustrating.

The addition of new content and expanded lore breathes fresh life into this beloved classic, making it accessible to newcomers while still rewarding long-time fans. It's a perfect blend of the old and new, showing profound respect for the original while also daring to innovate.

In a world where so many remakes fall flat, "Silent Hill 2 Remake" stands as a shining beacon of excellence. It’s not just a game; it’s an experience—one that every gamer should embark on. This masterpiece has set a new standard for remakes and will surely be remembered as a monumental achievement in gaming history.

Bravo to the developers for crafting a truly unforgettable journey! 🌌💔

I let you judging.

Review embargo lifts on October 4th. So you should be getting a rough idea based on that.

Also, GOTY means best personal game for them. So it is understandable, that this masterpiece will be GOTY for many people.

I dunno why you are spamming and bringing up unrelated games.. 😴
Also this is far from overpriced and anyone with a job can afford it.

Also please don't spread misinformation. 2/3 of original creators are here and even SH1 creator endorsed this product. A random on the Internet saying it doesn't respect OG means nothing. It is the definitive and most accurate way.

Angela is based on OG sketches for example, same with other characters. So in fact, this is the most accurate.

They're doing it on multiple game forums, it's all just spam about "woke" this and "DEI" that. It's one of those Russian troll farm accounts just block it and move on

Yeah we believe you dude. You would have bought it already.

Bloober Team loses much too because of piracy.

i didnt buy it yet, as i say, i will buy it if there will be no denuvo there.
I suppose only u want this Denuvo, u can ask Denuvo in ur version of the game personally, than may be u will be happy, i want copy without denuvo

So a garaunteed buy vs a "maybe" buy it. :cuphead:

Pretty sure I am not the only one who don't want to pay for free things. No Denuvo means it is cracked within two weeks it is a fact. So not only they lose to pirated copies but also refunds.

so... may be u can count people in the steam discussion, who wants denuvo? i am interesting, it seems, only u want this denuvo, who else?

I am more than enough.

Fact is, they lose more money by not using Denuvo. They know the right decision. End of discussion.

they wont loose, if it will be masterpiece, i am tired of repeating about Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, Baldurs Gate 3, Elden Ring and Dark Souls series - they have bunch of GOTY awards and sold with millions of copies
