In a recent interview, the creator of Silent Hill, KeiichiroToyama, discusses why it was so difficult to remake the original Silent Hill games.
Keiichiro Toyama, creator Silent Hill , has been very busy since he left Sony Japan Studio last year. With Kazunobu Sato and Junya Okura from siren series of games, he founded the new Bokeh Game Studio and its new horror game Slitterhead was revealed at The Game Awards 2021 last week.
Recently, Silent Hill The creator spoke in a recent interview with Video Games Chronicle where he was interviewed about the opportunity Silent Hill redo. He was asked if he would like to see remakes of Silent Hill Konami’s game is similar to the recent game Resident Evil Remade by Capcom. However, Toyama replied that do it again Silent Hill video games will be more difficult than expected.
Toyama said that he thought it would be harder to do it again Silent Hill game than it will the Resident Evil redo because the game concept is a bit older. He said that Silent Hill not an action game where you update the graphics and the action is up to current standards, as in Resident Evil redo. When it comes to rework Silent Hill game, he thinks “you’re going to have to rethink the concept to make it interesting to the fans.”
The interview continued with Toyama sharing his general thoughts on the video game remake stating, “Unlike the movie, the game is difficult to enjoy in its original state.” “Obviously because of the platform,” he said, and went on to say that over time, the game mechanics, when it comes to usability, will begin to “lack logic and sophistication.” Toyama points out that some older video games are, visually speaking, not made for modern devices, so he is not opposed to modifying the original nature of a game for the modern era. .
There have been many rumors and leaks suggesting that Konami is said to have a lot of Silent Hill game in development, and they have been outsourced to other game studios for development. Not to mention the rumors that Konami has new entries in Castlevania and Metal gears franchises are also active now. However, the publisher has not publicly confirmed these reports at the time of writing.
This is not the first time Silent Hill Franchising has been revisited in recent years. A good example is has now been cancelled Silent Hill video games that will be handled by Hideo Kojima. Some speculate that the game is exclusive to PS5 Abandoned may have been connected to the franchise in some way, but that has been denied by developer Blue Box Game Studios. However, the new game Slitterhead by Bokeh Game Studio seems to continue the horror tradition of Silent Hill, as evidenced by the trailer shown at The Game Awards 2021.
