Fog: a symbol of white supremacy.

[@R+5]

Also fog must be an expensive visual effect.

Devs seem to reduce a lot the amount of fog and "misty areas" in silent hill. Since fog is usually white, it must be a symbol of white supremacy. then it must be ok. good choice.

lol... :/

well that still works with this idea: if you made the mistake of having white skin, according to the marxist-socialists, you are the most imperfect "thing". the fog can hide "evil white ghosts"

:P

i know, a bit of cringe. the forum has been going a bit slow.

But here you pretty much admit that you are just one of those lowbrain baiters and trolls that doesn't even know why he is so excessively obsessed with an OG game and is unable to realize that remakes will always exist separately. Any walls of text of OG-is-this-why-that blabla won't change that fact.

As usual with regard to the implicit suggestions that the remake has been somehow artistically compromised due to some element of DEI or what have you, it doesn't take much effort to find that the original game's art director or others don't share that view and are happy with what's been created:

"In particular, we had strong demands about the motif of fog when first starting on this remake, and they were sure to depict it just as we wanted.” - Masahiro Ito

Funny you claim:

when you can chose to ignore the obvious and our present context:
it currently matters very little what people say if they are "financially compromised". I like the work of yamaoka, and i think that even if the game sucks, if he had an active role in designing the "soundscapes" and composing the music, at least that is possible will be ok, or even "nice".

On the other hand, anything claimed in support by any "leftover" from earlier versions of "team silent" having a minor role in development of this or any other "modern audience sh", means little or nothing, because they are not "the cooks", and they were not "in the kitchen" or even part of the "selectors of ingredients", lol.

if you can follow the metaphor, unfortunately, masahiro ito role was more like an observer and advisor. It wasn a japanese team, or handpicked "interns" of konami like in earlier days of the company. This konami, is not the same konami of 20 years ago: is a worse version, that hardly cares about making games or respecting their own "top creatives".

After all the bs the company has done in recent years, why would ito say should be taken at face value, considering the context?

Honestly, considering basic logic, do you think such claims can be trusted? obv not.

You know what is a easy? to search what dei is, what ideas it pushes, and the companies that are or have been supporting it directly to get investment funds from related political groups. then, basic logic can help you understand why all dei related is just bs, and why it usually ends actually doing har, and frequently increasing the issues they claim to want to solve.

This company has worked with bloober, and did some bs in the sh remake (is like sweet baby inc.). you can visit their site and see which companies they are currently listing, as well as a few games they have been involved with (which in most cases, have suffered negative design changes, and lower sales as consequence of that; if you have been under a rock, research how much "alan wake 2" was changed)

interesting video about "PT","silent hills", kojima, and konami. is in italian, but you can use auto-translate the cc to your preferred language

reality is 2024 konami barely cares about games, is pushing dei, and has shown no signs of trying to do things as well as they used to. any game made by them, or that has to go through their licenses, will be affected by dei design choices, and dei "talent" (people chosen from their appearance and ideological affiliations, before their actual level of skills). probably bloober cares more about making games than them, but they are still unable to make a really good game, with good replay value.

why was this article put out? https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/silent-hill-2-creators-wanted-to-completely-change-the-remake/ar-BB1nNV18 kind of seems like cover, doesn't it?
I mean, I would trust the guys that have been there since day 1 to know their own game
and also respect whatever ideas they had or decisions they wanted to make, better than I would bloober.
Either this article was written to cover bloober's @ss or Ito and Yamaoka were trying to correct and or improve things/changes and bloober/hit detection wouldn't allow it.
