is this the best silent shill outside of the first 4? why did it get such a negative reception?

It has very unimaginative monster designs, they're basically just zombies for the most part, and the Boogeyman is just Pyramid Head with a gas mask, also, the combat kinda sucks, I like the story though and some of the areas are nice, especially the stage theater
I enjoyed this game, but the best is SH2.

Not really. Replay the game. The Silent Hill you're in isn't Murphy's.
Really the only thing wrong with it were the fucking awful monster and level designs. I like the like of an open Silent Hill with sidequests, but it was executed poorly in Downpour.
It wasn't great, but I agree with OP it definitely didn't deserve the scores it got.

Are you sure? because I don't remember anything in the game ever hinting that it was except for maybe the last boss, but even then I just assumed you both just had the same kind of demons or something

What is the best silent hill outside the first 4?
Nope. It's not Shattered Memories.
can we all agree that this is the worst Silent Hill?
>>342516206
I would say Shattered Memories. Not much to gameplay, but man did they grasp the psychological aspect.
>>342516179Murphy is Anne's personal boogeyman because he crippled her Father (she even goes on about having to clean her hero's literal shit). She spent a lifetime devoted to just hating him. Even all of the enemies and bosses are Anne-based (A prison CO).

Not when that vita spinoff exists.
Come to think of it, Homecoming would of been perfect if they went the camp rout

I wonder how fucked up her life must be after she realizes she literally fucked people to kill the wrong guy
It's the most broken since 4.
Also saves all the fucking for some reason.
>>342514550
>why did it get such a negative reception?
Because it's not scary in any shape or form?

>It's the most broken since 4.
you must suck at games if you think 4 is broken
>>342514550
The framerate and boring enemy designs. Also, the Otherworld sequences being almost entirely just Murphy running.

Was he the most autistic main character ever?

>go to her and ask "a-are you ok?..."
>something out of ordinary happens
>"what the...?" per whole game
I thought he had autism and it will be revelead at some point of game.

I was scared during the movie theatre and Hansel and Gretel parts.

IF I DONT EVERYTHINGS WRONG
>>342516530
Oh yeah well kinda makes sense that he can fight monsters easily since he's a soldier and all...Oh wait he actually isn't. Also enjoy the black sidekick comic relief being taken away by aliens since it ain't even a secret ending.
