no fear
"Bloober remaking Silent Hill 3, which has far fewer defenders because the game gets classified either as 'cult crap' or 'women's horror,' ignoring its psychological elements"
one fear
#I don't think you understand. sh3 is my beloved#it is intensely personal to me in the way that sh2 is intensely personal to many others#I don't think I could handle people going 'OLD GRAPHICS BAD VOICE ACTING HALF-BAKED PLOT' at sh3 because. well.#we've known its plot was half-baked for decades#they rushed that shit out the door. and yet even then sh3 manages to be pretty great#the technical feats team silent accomplished on the ps2 in sh3 have no rival#really even in its predecessor or its successor#I genuinely believe that had sh3 had more time in the oven it could have stood shoulder-to-shoulder with sh2#if not surpass it in some aspects#like. do you guys know how realized these characters are? heather especially?#it's easy to dismiss her as a 'bratty teenager' now but back in 2003 you would have NEVER. seen a character like her in horror#there are so many other things about sh3 I could gush about but they'd only scratch the surface of why I love the game#and that in conclusion is why I dread the idea of bloober getting their mitts on it#my only consolation is the thought that sh3 isn't popular enough to warrant demand for a remake#but then again sh2's popularity didn't prevent people from revising the history and context of its development#so who knows what ad-hoc justifications remake fans would be willing to invent when it comes to 3#all in all if worse comes to worst I'll look forward to people saying heather's facial animations look 'outdated' or some shit :>
