@InLoveRumin I love Walter and his role in SH4, but by the same token a Western SH game where the villain chases you around with dual handguns like he's Max Payne absolutely would've become a prime example of 'dumb Americans' (every Western dev is American apparently) ruining Silent Hill.

For the record, I love that nurses in sh3 have guns. I'm just if a western game did it, it would have been called too western/too edgy/not silent hill/not subtle or whatever & no one would ever stop bringing it up about how the western games lost the plot. x.com/i/status/20402…

I think my favorite silent hill monster of all time is the silent hill 3 nurse. Their hair and gun make them look so remixed/cyberpunk/steampunk/gothic/grunge/emo and it makes me happy.

Am I allowed to say there would have been so much hate if a western Silent Hill game gave nurses guns instead of Silent Hill 3? But because a Team Silent game did it, it gets a pass.

@Saulman11835779 God it's a shame that First Kill often gets forgotten due to its debut as a backup story. So many of the popular misconceptions about Venom and the roles taken on by Eddie and the symbiote within that partnership would be cleared up if this thing was published everywhere lmao.

@InLoveRumin Accepting that one person having a different opinion from the norm constitutes revisionism (it doesn't), by that logic "2/10 dogshit" is the same thing. The critical reception at the time was at worst lukewarm, arguably leaning positive. Not sure why they need to get heated.

I love homecoming haters lmao look at this. How am I supposed to take this seriously?
C@CeeOhOh

@InLoveRumin Yes, revisionism. The game was shit at launch and it’s still shit now. The pc port is garbage and it’s ironically the only good part because it does everything in its power to stop you from lobotomising yourself playing the game

@Datleyfrenzyl In fairness with the way comics usually go somebody making a 'permanent and unbreakable' bond with the symbiote would probably be the best omen for their imminent separation lol.

@soonrightaway It's a really fun and unique game that would be better regarded if it was clearer about how distinct each difficulty is. The half hour normal mode doesn't quite do it total justice, but by hard and expert it comes together pretty beautifully.

Star Fox 2 is crazy… SNES game that’s a 3D flight shooter/platformer hybrid with a procedurally generated roguelite campaign and realtime strategy elements. it’s not even on rails like the other games, it has fully 3D combat. i also finished my first run in just 40 minutes lol

@InLoveRumin I have pretty mixed opinions on the sequels overall, but it's undeniable that they're really damn nice to look at, particularly compared to a lot of other recent blockbusters.

@thekirkster1088 @KaleeshArbiter Yeah for all the flaws of the trilogy, it was nice to see the spirit of the classic minis being earnestly embraced in these big blockbusters after years of them being dismissed as worthless 90s schlock. And to be fair they did draw a lot of people into the Venom fanbase.

@KaleeshArbiter Like people give these movies a lot of shit (respectfully so at points) but they tend to try and use a lot of venom's earlier stuff (like carnage being able to hack computers) and I kinda love them for it

Y'know, for all the shit I give the Venom movies, I'm still really impressed with them using the Xenophage. Not to mention they also gave them a pretty unique and alien design. Just big weird creeps, and I think that's cool.

@DoomBacon @GenghisConnThr3 As you said if everything was going grand it would be great to see other concepts brought in, but given the hiatus it's perfectly reasonable to want a game that focuses on doing the main selling point well. It's a fine conversation to have, but it's all getting weirdly heated.

@DoomBacon @GenghisConnThr3 Yeah I'm not a fan of the idea that wanting Star Fox to focus on the aerial combat is this regressive lunacy. When a franchise is this rare it's not unreasonable to want to see its unique elements developed rather than devoting time to stuff that's done better elsewhere.

@InLoveRumin It's really funny how a sizeable portion of this fanbase thinks that talking about the video game portion of their favourite video game makes you less sophisticated or whatever.

@Liquid__Snail The combat is part of what makes the games so replayable. Getting new weapons every playthrough and some of the games even having a score at the end, Silent Hill fans often forget that these are video games.

@YellowVenom2 Yet miraculously this 'original' take that has nothing of Venom's personality, background or motivations (wonder who they come from?) will always be sold on the promise of encompassing everything people love about Venom (It's the teeth. The teeth are everything apparently).

@InLoveRumin Yeah that! It's the one semi-clear memory I have of this game lol, everything else is just kind of an ambiguous mush of locations.

@Liquid__Snail The junkyard with the train? That was so cool. That was before Ratchet 2 and Uncharted 2 blew everyone's minds with their trains.

@InLoveRumin I'm thankful the random copy I got at a charity shop or whatever already had most of the levels unlocked because my child self would not have the patience to actually beat all of these things lol. I just thought the picture of the game on the back of my dad's N64 looked cool...

@InLoveRumin I remember nothing about this game except A. Yeah it was really goddamn hard. B. The menu music. C. That cool level on a junkyard planet or whatever with the moving platform. I think IG88 was there for some reason...

@omegajayrod91 @timAcatsoftpaws Lawrence is fantastic, but I do hope Sloan gets another great Vader project one day. I have a lot of nostalgia for the guy and his reputation's kinda gone downhill between the dodgy effects on his voice in BF 2015 and Lawrence giving his best performance yet in Fallen Order.

@omegajayrod91 @timAcatsoftpaws I gave Sloan's filmography a look. He's done Vader in a few Lego TV specials in the 2020s, with his last 'big' Vader project being EA's Battlefront 2. Since 2019 Scott Lawrence seems to have made a comeback as the preeminent game VA for Vader after a long period of Sloan. 1/2

@SourceHalloween Sad news. He had a fun dynamic with Pleasence and made a memorable part of what could easily have been a pretty conventional slasher role. RIP.

@InLoveRumin I'd agree that most of the games are good starting points and that SH3's incomprehensibility without context is overstated, although I do think that SM is greatly enhanced if the player has an existing relationship with SH1's story and cast so I wouldn't recommend that one.

New controversial Silent Hill opinion: I think every Silent Hill game is a good game to start with. Even Silent Hill 3. There is a recap of SH1 in 3 for first timers, & it makes replaying SH1 & seeing how everything unfolded leading up to 3 feel like an interesting revelation.
