Little bonus for the weekend!
Two days ago we had the first Sony State of Play in 2024, and among a lot of announcements, what took me by surprise was a new Silent Hill title named "The Short Message".
Since this is literally the first time in over a decade that we're able to play a new Silent Hill game (and personally two decades since the last good one), I couldn't help but bringing my run to the channel.
I'm not including P.T. in this argument because, even though it is undoubtedly one of the most influential things in the horror gaming industry to this day, it wasn't a complete version but only a teaser for the late Silent Hills by Kojima and Del Toro.
I think we can consider Downpour as the last major release in the series, and it came out 12 years ago.
So, is this new Silent Hill good or bad?
Honestly I have to consider many things I noticed: first things first, it clearly is a product that was born from P.T.'s corpse, but totally fails to recreate that same eerie, frightening feeling as it was in P.T.
The story is pretty much lackluster and not so interesting even though the themes are very heavy, I don't see the typical sensitivity there was in its predecessors, it's almost like the game throws a bunch of delicate themes in the same pot, resulting in a weaker version of Life Is Strange.
Unfortunately I didn't feel like playing a Silent Hill title at all, considering these issues. It's not even technically good or well polished considering the frequent frame-drops during compelling sections.
There's a few things I liked about it, not gonna lie, but overall I consider it to be pretty mediocre and barely enjoyable.
I know it's been years and years since we last saw a new Silent Hill, but this is definitely not what I expected from this franchise. It's not strong enough to make you feel the same vibes as a Silent Hill title in my opinion.
My rating for Silent Hill: The Short Message ★★☆☆☆ out of ★★★★★
