Silent Hill 2 Remake Developer: 'Give Us a Chance' - News

by William D'Angelo , posted on 06 August 2024 / 2,175 Views

The developer for the remake of Silent Hill 2, Bloober Team, in an interview with Rolling Stone asked fans to give them "a chance."

"I am dreaming that gamers will trust us," said Bloober Team CEO and creative lead Piotr Babieno.

"But I realize that trust is earned through actions, not through words. So that’s why we have a policy of not commenting [on the specifics of the game] and raising hopes. We want to show our ambitions through our work, so we can’t ask for anything more than ‘give us a chance.'"

He added, "We tried to make all possible fans happy, but, at the same time, be very faithful to ourselves. I really hope that when people play for the first time, they will understand that the choices we made were the best possible."

Silent Hill 2 will launch on October 8 for the PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam.

Anytime I've given Bloober Team "a chance" I've been let down...

If you are faithful to the fans then change the girls look and put it back to what the original look like

Did they ever explain why didn't they start by remaking the first one?

I could be wrong, but I did read somewhere that SH2 was chosen due to the higher popularity compared to the first game.

I'll wait and see how it turns out but Bloober hasn't made an objectively good game in the studios history and what we've seen of the remake so far has left a lot to be desired. I would love if the remake turns out to be amazing, but I'm pretty cautious about it right now.

Layers of Fear and Blair Witch were deemed successes, so you're wrong on that count. But I do understand the caution.

I didn’t say the games weren’t successes. I said they weren’t objectively good. I’m sure this game will be a success on name alone. Whether the game is good or not is a different story.

That's incredibly subjective, but pop off I guess.

They had that chance but they wasted it after the first pictures of the game. Can't believe they dare to make the players look like the bad guys when they're insulting the fans from the very start. I was waiting for it but now, even for free, I wouldn't waste one second of my time on this.

That sounds desperate, they know the game sucks and that trailer was awful
