I got a criticism for the criticisms. First people complained about whe is there so much combat footage. Its a combat trailer. The job of the trailer is to showoff combat(I know it looks bad but that does not matter because the criticism is why so much combat). Second why add more combat. It's a new game being made for new gamers and for the og players. No one is complaining the RE4R is a stationary shooter like the original RE4. They are 2 different games both games are good. Third. The developer. Blooper team has stated that footage is from an older build and with the new kids on the block I would say it is vary disingenuous to judge a product before its even out. There is no other game that got this type of criticism before it even came out based on a trailer that had a poticular job and even hates for it. It would be equivalent to saying Arkham knight was going to be a bad batman game because they showed off a driving trailer.
I think maybe the point of the criticism is being missed a little bit. When you say the job of the trailer is to show off combat. That it's self is the problem. I'm not co paining about how much combat is in the combat trailer. I'm complaining that the first trailer IS a combat trailer. As if that's what the Silent Hill fans wanted. Should it not have been a horror trailer? Remember How successful PT was? And it was solely based around the horror elements? As for the bloober team showing off an old build. Don't do it then. Bloober might be a new team but Konami and Sony are both titans of the industry and should know what a good trailer looks like and how important it is to get that first one right.
@@VGTvgt don't move the goal post. And your the one who's got upset in a combat trailer they had to much combat. It would be boring watching a guy salve riddles and spoilers if they showed the riddles and even more so for new ones. If you had criticism of how the combat looked that would be of been ok it was jank. I'm just saying you sound like you would of complained Arkham knight would of been a bad batman game because of a driving trailer.
@idavisband what do you mean move the goal posts? One of the forst things I said in the video. 1.56 I said this game was announced in 2022 and showed part of the forst trailer. Don't be a dope. And no, I disagree. I think watching this combat trailer was boring. But look. If you are into it then each to their own.
Trailer expicilty says that it is a combat trailer. Cringey youtuber complains about the combat in the trailer. It is sad that I am not surprised at this.
As much as I'm not a fan of BluepointGames and some of their remakes, I would have been much happier and more confident with the idea of a Remake for SH2 if they were given the chance to do it instead of BlooberTeam. Because at least Bluepoint makes an effort to not change the very aspects of the original games that made them so iconic and influential.
@@VGTvgt I’ve been part of this franchise since day one. I still have my original copy of SH1 on PS1. I’ve seen so many new people come into the fandom recently and at this point and time I’m just tired of being called a fake fan by them because I am a tiny bit critical of this remake. After all these years, I never saw a single long time fan ever want a remake. I know there were some that did, and are probably ok with it, but I think people should be critical of a remake because then at least it shows the fans give a damn. We aren’t going to just accept anything because it has the SH logo on it.
@LovelessDogg1 Absolutely. I can't help but think why are more people not worried about this remake. People saying I'm complaining about the fact there's too much combat in a "combat trailer" but completely missing the point that SH isn't about over the top action combat. The problem is that's clearly what's being focused on here.
There is no Silent Hill 2 without Guy Cihi or GCNavigator as he is known on TH-cam. James's likeness was modeled after him and he also provided his voice and knowing the history on how Konami screwed him over and treated him is absolutely disgusting and deplorable. This trailer already leaving a bad taste in my mouth with this remake's overall presentation. Others have pointed this out already and now I can't unsee it that Konami and Bloober has looked at how Capcom remade Resident Evil 2 and carbon copied it and with it James in this remake just looks like Leon to me. If it didn't have the Silent Hill 2 branding it could easily be confused as Resident Evil 2. At least Visceral Games transformed Dead Space so it didn't look 1/1 identical to Resident Evil 4 and because of this change in direction has made me love Dead Space and I have such a strong affinity to it now after all these years. Dead Space 3 on the other hand should never have been made.
I still believe the hate this got was way overblown. Yeah I understand they gave us a combat trailer that no one wanted. But a huge concern when SH2 got announced was Bloober doing combat. Honestly for a dev that has never tackled combat it looks pretty good. Let’s also keep In mind that Konami chose to use old footage for this. But we live in an age where games get criticized before they even can get a chance
They literally had a combat trailer for the original and how exactly do you know you still won't have to avoid it "at all cost" when you haven't even experienced the new one?
Because you made a video criticizing all the action in the trailer, not knowing the O.G silent Hill 2 trailer was the same. Yet, you hold the original in high praise when put out a trialer just like this one.....that's why you should know.....but you be good bro....I was asking a genuwine question....clearly u got defensive
@jasonrodgers6192 nah sorry dude you have misunderstood me. You said "how exactly do you know you won't have to avoid it at all costs when you haven't experienced it yet." And I just said, I don't know know that yet. I agree that I could be totally wrong. I'm just making a video based on a feeling. Also I do have to say the point you make about the original 2001 trailer being combat heavy is a really good point. But I think possibly back then without context and coming off the back of silent hill 1 it was probably a smart move. But knowing now what SH2 was, I don't think it is a smart move. I mean, is that not a fair point?
I'm getting sick of the argument that combat just wasn't something you regularly engaged with in SH2 play the game again play it on hard mode there's a quite a few non boss fight moments where you pretty much don't have a choice but fight not to mention to boss fights themselves the pyramid head chase under the hospital try not fighting pyramid head there you'll see the game over screen every single time when Maria dies or fuck up the hanged man puzzle have fun just avoiding the 5 lying figures that spawn in the hall just try to wait out either pyramid head fight the first one will have you running in a circle for 10 minutes the other with have you running for nearly 30 if you choose not to fight also despite being just a regular guy James is a more competent fighter than the Resident Evil characters in RE1, 2, and 3 being able to move and aim being able to strafe left and right being able to jump backwards as a little dodge and having a light and heavy melee attack if you don't like how it looks fine but can we all stop acting like combat wasn't a big part of silent hill it was and it was presented the way it was because that was the survival horror standard at the time
@VGTvgt my only complaints are that the animations and sounds are clearly unfinished but the actual style of gameplay is exactly what I expected because thats the modern standard for survival horror I'd have a problem if it had RE4 combat but RE2 combat with more melee weapons that's pretty much exactly what it was to begin with let's not forget Silent Hill was spawned as a RE clone cuz Konami wanted their own PS1 horror game
@Brucie129 but just because something is the modern standard it doesn't mean that it has to follow those tropes. When outlast first came out it was really successful it pioneered a whole era of games where combat wasn't at the forefront of horror. When PT (a literal Silent hill game) was announced the whole thing was based around pure dread and horror. Bloober team themselves have made 2 horror games the observer, and the medium both of which are fairly unique in terms of the horror concept. I don't think it's unreasonable for Silent Hill 2 fans to expect something a little less on the nose as an RE reskin. Obviously we know that combat is gonna be in the game but that's the not the driving force behind Silent Hill, it's the horror. RE and Dead Space are both centred around the combat. All I'm saying is its a bold move to take one of history's most scary games and present it like its Duke nukem.
Thank you! Im so sick of people downplaying the combat in the first 4 games. There was boss fights, greatswords, katanas, rifles, machine guns! The combat is definitely an important part. The remake looks eh.. but its a million times better than short message lol
I was wondering where you had run off to. Nice vid and it’s very disappointing to see this remake not being give the care of other remakes we’ve seen recently.
Why would you ever have thought this remake would be good? The fact that it exists is already a fucking joke. Every time a remake is announced for a game that doesn't fucking need one that's how I know its going to SUCK.
I dunno I disagree. I think the Resident Evil remakes were amazong and also its not really about us (the people who played the originals) It's about new younger gamers getting to experience what we did. Thats why something like this is bad because they won't get that Silent Hill experience they will by the looks of it be getting a RE spin off.
The brief in the dev office must've been, "make something more disappointing than the second SH film" Never played any of the games, and it'll probably stay that way if they don't go back to the drawing board here - that melee animation with the plank is more wooden than the one he's got in his hands 😂
The more Remedy games I've play, the more I feel they would be perfect for remaking this
