So a second Silent Hill chapter is possible?

I'll shill out 60 dollars for a good remake / remaster of Silent Hill 1 2 and 3 even if they're 60 a pop.

Realistically though - What Silent Hill character would even be the killer? We already have Pyramid Head which is kind of hard to imagine given the story. I know there are some big options in SH but I don't see any of them fitting gameplay.

inb4 Eddie lol

I can respect that pick. Although wouldn't his power mostly be a blink of some sort and a gun? Or am I remembering a different character? Silent Hill 4 was the one of the first four I've played the least so memory is fuzzy on that one.

Just kidding about Eddie though good lord can you imagine.

For Walter Sullivan my idea was that he could place Haunts around the map with a terror radius themselves. If a survivor stands in this Haunt Terror Radius for ten seconds a ghost is spawned that chases them, the ghost moves at 110% speed and can go through objects but it only lasts 20 seconds. There can be three haunts on the map at a time. Add-Ons would give the ghosts effects, increase ghost movement of decrese nessesary time needed to stand in the haunt terror radius. I thought of a Joke-Add On called "Jaspers Chocolate Milk", It increases Ghost's movement speed to 115% but Decreases Ghost timer to 15 seconds. "Oh, Man, That was Awsome" -Jasper.

Aside from Walter? They could go with the incubus from 1 or the maybe Leonard Wolf from 3. If they wanted to get really creative they could try and make Alessa a manipulated killer. With SH2 being remade we could see a certain character that I will not name for spoiler reasons.

So, just saying:

The Silent Hill 2 remake is being done by a studio that has a... shaky history with horror games. They tend to get noticed a fair bit, but don't review well because the gameplay tends to be peepoo. Obviously, just copying SH2 shouldn't present as much of an issue, but a lot of people are still side-eying them, wondering what they MIGHT do to it.

Silent Hill F takes place in 1960s Japan. To make a point of this, it takes place BEFORE the events of Silent Hill 1. It also takes place before the events that SET Silent Hill 1 in motion. It will completely predate all lore from the actual games entirely. It is also being written by an author that PRIMARILY focuses on eastern horror. This is not a bad thing by itself, but it will be a major departure from normal SH tropes, which tend to mix eastern and western horror. It also already seems to rely a WEE BIT on knowing Japanese horror culture beforehand. The trailer shows a lot of a specific flower, which to a westerner, may just look like a flower. In Japan, however, it is very well known to be symbol of death. As such, it SEEMS Silent Hill F is specifically more geared towards a Japanese audience. Again, this doesn't mean it's bad or anything, just that it's not being written with westerners in mind.

There is another game going by the name Silent Hill: Townfall. Little is known about this one as of yet. That said, the developer has made horror games in the past with mixed reviews. Some really like their work, some don't. For me, personally, this one might be the blackhorse of the lot. It has a lot of potential to be s surprise hit, or a total nothing-burger.

BHVR (the devs behind such games as DbD, DbD, DbD, and DbD mobile) are working on a Silent Hill game that has a fluid story or something. The explanation of the game simply wasn't very clear. We know it has some kind of multiplayer functionality, but beyond that, it has something to do with everyone picking how the story goes(?). With this in mind, it wouldn't be surprising if they got to use any new big monster they made for that in DbD. This is the most likely outcome.

Just give us White Hunter with a spear and a tight butt.

Memory of Alessa.

Valtiel tends to more work in the background and drags Heathers body away after dying. While I like the Bobblehead Nurses, I wouldn't really want to see them work outside of their normal mechanics. That would be too restrictive for players, though, and breaking the mechanics would feel like too much of a departure from the source material for me.

While the other games have their own big-bads, none of them hit quite the same as Pyramid Head.

Alessa, however, is integral to the plot of multiple games. She's basically the source of it all. Where Silent Hill REALLY got started. Memory of Alessa, which is a boss battle in SH3, is one of the few times we sort of see her more directly doing anything. A manifestation of what powers Silent Hill, or a least started the engine.

So, Heather Mason with black hair, covered in dried blood, burns, and stains all over her clothes. Holding a knife, and wielding reality altering powers and psychic abilities. Alessa is insanely powerful, insanely dangerous, and is also one of the most pivotal characters of the franchise.
