Make game that feels like first person silent hill 1

You're right. That would be because Silent Hill 3 has nothing which was my point. The game is incredibly direct and leaves little up to interpretation and that's not necessarily better than a game that's a little pretentious. I'd rather have more games like Lost in Vivo than SH3.

There's no subtext, no greater meaning, no subtlety either. The main villain delivers a 5 minute monologue on exactly how the game plays out up until the end minus the paradise bit. Silent Hill 3 is bad. The series is far from perfect. Lost in Vivo is a perfectly good indie SH game and if you're looking for pretentiousness look no further than the nearest mirror, fag.

jesus fucking christ i keep forgetting how stupid the people on Yea Forums are, imagine preferring this heavyhanded cringeworthy shit over SH.

There doesn't NEED to be anything spelled out because the game's resting on it's strong thematic subtext, and it has more to do with teenage/female fears than "religion bad" as said above.

I'm with you on Lost in Vivo being great but it's a fantastic first amateur effort whereas SH 3 was ahead of it's time and has clear professional design behind almost every aspect of the game.

Learn more synonyms for "bad" OP and maybe people will take your bitching more seriously. "Heavy-handed" is the only maybe accurate complaint you've made.

terrible opinion
though i agree that lost in vivo is pretty good for what it is, it wasn't wonderfully compelling to me though, i'm much more likely to get "enveloped" in something like silent hill 2 than LIV

Nah, they are all accurate. It's fucking ridiculous.

I just went through the apple segment and completed the mine. Yeah, I'd say is the posters, the mirror enemies, those notes, the therapy thingy, and that segment. None of which make the bulk of the game. Shotgun is fucking shite tho.

having the weapons have their own quirks to make them shitty is a cool idea but the rock salt shotgun is such a limp dick gun

Do you get a better shotgun? This one is downright useless, and the luger is actually quite efficient at killing shit so far
