@Mabibabi krystal!

Been a bit, moving and all that junk. Let's get back into it!

1. The whole "points of interest are covered in white cloth" thing isn't as great when you have other things covered by white cloth that can't be interacted with.
2. Due to the save screen showing James in real-time now instead of just an image, Maria can show up in it too. This is kind of an issue due to some symbolism crap.
3. They really butchered Maria's death scene and the sequence that leads up to it. Something about the original's fixed camera angles in a claustrophobic and angled hallway while you see Pyramid Head chase you down and slash at Maria is so daunting. In the remake, the camera is behind you and Maria is running in front of you, and you never really see Pyramid Head at all. Then when her death comes around it just feels so much more flat. Nobody is yelling or screaming, James isn't frantically pushing buttons on the elevator, and when the doors finally close he doesn't seem anywhere near as broken up about it. Then the somber music kicks in but it's greatly diminished by the dumb ambient horror sounds in the background. There's no moment of silence to make it hit harder. It's proof that nobody calling the shots here actually knew what made the scene impactful... They just copied the main points of it and tried to make it more Hollywood. Speaking of that music by the way, the original version has a refrain with chords but this one is just the melody repeated over and over again. It's really disappointing.
4. The ambient horror sounds playing outside of the hospital have a very obvious loop point to them and just a little bit before that happens there is this really loud, abnoxious sound that plays. I know it is supposed to be there to make you feel like something is going to happen, but when nothing does you realize that it's just baked in to the track and that's really stupid. There are a lot of ambient tracks like this in the game and I really wish I could turn the music off so I didn't have to deal with them. It's stuff that would be better suited for playing outside of a haunted house during Halloween, not in Silent Hill.

At this point, I've played for 12 hours. I think I'm only about half way through and it is starting to wear on me a bit. I would have been done with the original by now.

@Rhodesian_YuKari @ForbiddenDreamer I cum

@pinemarten even nearly half of California voted for him lol it was surprisingly close. Take out the illegals and I wonder if California is basically red again.

I tried showing him Smash Ultimate and he was completely lost. He only got into video games like a year ago after getting hit by a car and being bedridden for months. It is seriously like watching an old man trying to figure out how to play.

@Mr_NutterButter It's very good. A little old school, but very good.

Playing the game on something like glide64 will work super well, and be pretty damn easy to set up. I'd recommend Ship of Harkinian though if you don't mind watching some tutorials and doing some tinkering. It has a lot of enhancements.

Watching a zoomer play ocarina of time for the first time. I'm wondering when he's going to quit because he's bored or something lol.
