Summary

Silent Hill 2 director Masashi Tsuboyama has revealed that he is "not satisfied" with tank controls.
He argues that the more modern, over-the-shoulder camera "adds to the sense of realism", and is a big reason why he's excited to try the new remake.

One of the major concerns about the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Silent Hill 2 remake before it was even announced — back when it was just a thought experiment as Capcom started to modernise the classic 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Resident Evil games — was whether you couꦆld still capture the unnerving and voyeuristic feel without tank controls.

Many agreed that you couldn't, and some even said that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:they missed tank controls in modern games. Indies like 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Crow Country and Alisa, styled on🧸 the PS1 and PS2 eras, pay homage to where survival horror began, giving those fans the option all these years later. But original Silent Hill 2 director Masashi Tsuboyama himself is "not sati﷽sified" with the old school approach.

"The change in playable camera has a significa🗹nt impact on many aspects, combat, level design, art creation, etc. While the impact on the story may be relatively small, it brings a big change to the play feel of the game," Tsuboyama tweeted. "To be honest, I'm not satisfied with the playable camera from 23 years ago.

"Depth and angle were limited by the processing load. It was a continuous process of hard work that was not rewarded. But that was the limit. The💙 over-the-shoulder view definitely adds to the sense of realism. In other words, it makes me want to try playing the even more immersive remake of Silent Hill 2!!!

Tsuboyama Is Excited For A New Generation To Try Silent Hill

A modern, third-person camera will definite🅰ly make Silent Hill 2 more welcoming to newcomers, which is something that Tsuboyama is especially excitꦯed for with the new Bloober Team remake.

"I think the value of the remake is that a new generation can play it," he wrote. "It's been 23 years! Even if you don't know the origꦦinal, you can just enjoy the remake as it is. Whether it's good or bad doesn't affect the original."

However, Tsuboyama isn't too fond of how the remake has been marketed, arguing that the updated graphics and bonus headgear in particular don't do enough to "conv🍎ey the appeal of the work to the generation that doesn't know Silent Hill".

Regardless, he's excited to get stuck in for himself and try the remake out, which we can all do tomorrow when it launcheꦿs out of advanced access.
