Fandom split on Silent Hill f's "soulslike" combat


The Silent Hill fandom is seemingly split once again, this time over Silent Hill f's "soulslike" combat.

It's being developed by Neobards Entertainment (which has previously served as a support studio for Capcom's Resident Evil games), with creature and character design by Kera, and a script by When They Cry writer Ryukishi07. As Matt recently summarised for us, Silent Hill f's events are unfolding in the rural town of Ebisugaoka- based on Kanayama, Gero, in the Gifu Prefecture - where our protagonist Shimizu Hinako, an "ordinary teenager", finds her home shrouded in fog and changed in "horrific" ways. As Silent Hill f play out, she'll explore a town she no longer recognises, solving puzzles, fighting strange enemies, and eventually having to make a "beautiful yet terrifying" decision that lies at the heart of the game.
