i watched some of silent hill ascension, and holy shit is it bad. i thought for some reason it was going to use actual actors but it uses 3d models with bad animation and has weird monetization. people are comparing it to something that was generated with AI because it really does feel like nothing was actually handcrafted. some of the voice performances are OK and there are some small moments here and there that are cool, but dude, it's bad. it's real bad. there are two stories going on at once each with two subplots and they all get jumped between so much that the tension gets even lower than it already was, and it makes things confusing to follow. you can obviously tell when the audience was asked to make a choice because a character will literally say all three options to choose from and it doesn't fit in with the natural flow of dialogue at all.

konami really looked at this utter shit and said "YEAH that's what we want to lead with for the revival of silent hill!" shit's fucked.
