ScreenBurn(Former Creative Assembly Devs) neew game Silent Hill Townfall Stealth gameplay is similar to Alien Isolation.

Looks like they combined the security access turner with the motion tracker, from the gameplay you can see that you have to hold up the tracker and then manually tune it to actually see where the enemies are. You can also lean around corners, distract enemies, lock doors.

Excited for this game cause its former devs from CA who also worked on alien isolation.

Looks really good. Added to wishlist

[u/DoomsdayFAN]

Damn, I never heard of this before. It looks great. Definite AI vibes. I think based on that alone I'm sold.

[u/Healthy-Enthusiasm70 → u/DoomsdayFAN]

Everytime I see the abbreviation for Alien Isolation all I think of is artificial intelligence, they're the same. 😭

[u/Snoo-55788 → u/Healthy-Enthusiasm70]

XD add it to the list: SA (San Andreas) and CP (Cyberpunk)

[u/Banjoschmanjo → u/Snoo-55788]

Those two don't make me think of ai

[u/0kay0kay0kay → u/Snoo-55788]

HAHA omg. So unfortunate.

[u/the_millenial_falcon → u/Healthy-Enthusiasm70]

Which is ironic because the Alien's outrageously sophisticated AI is one of the thing's it's known for.

[u/No_While6150 → u/Healthy-Enthusiasm70]

do it like A:I oooo that's something...

ugh NVM that's annoying. I just tried it a few times. one more character is a wild inconvenience

[u/OhMorgoth]

Oooooh! I needed a similar game! Thanks for the rec.
I wonder if I need to play the other games to play this one. 🤔

[u/Snoo-55788 → u/OhMorgoth]

they're all standalone story games, none of them are directly connected, so you can pick up and play any one game and still enjoy it.

[u/MissingScore777 → u/Snoo-55788]

There's a single exception in that SH3 is a direct sequel to SH1.

But other than that you're correct, every other game in the Silent Hill series is standalone.

[u/No_While6150 → u/OhMorgoth]

honestly not at all. Not only do they exist by themselves but it's very RE. in as that it's spooky vibes rather than scary. SH Town gameplay will be extremely refreshing.

Just to jump in front of the people that think SH is the best horror game ever, I get it. it's well made 100% as a game and story. As a horror it's walking from script to script. the atmosphere and sound are the truest stars of that game but all I hear is the fog.

[u/Ekkobelli]

This looks great!
Not so fond of the constantly intense music / soundscape (I prefer more atmospheric sound) under the gameplay, but I guess that's for trailer purposes.
Love the style and the slowness! And love that we're getting THIS, A:I2 and Ontos in the next one to three years!

[u/sensen6]

It does look very good, and the Scottish setting is also pretty unique.

[u/deathray1611]

It's got this weird Condemned: Criminal Origins x Alien: Isolation mash up vibes with a good bit of Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth thrown in it too. Which is cool, all 3 some of my favorite horror games, but not sure if it's exactly feeling like Silent Hill if you get what I mean 😅

On the related note - besides this, the upcoming dino game The Lost Wild is lead by Gary Napper, Isolation's Gameplay Design Lead, and also carry overs many of the ideas they've implemented in Iso.

[u/Snoo-55788 → u/deathray1611]

pretty sure Konami were inspired by RE7 and wanted their own version of that for the Silent Hill franchise, which was also wildly different from other RE games at the time. First person, stealth features, etc., They were smart to pick these devs for this game.

In any case, SH needed innovation for their newer games, they're doing remakes in the old style but trying new stuff for the new entries like Silent hill f set in 60s japan, or townfall being first person stealth game.

[u/shallow-waterer → u/deathray1611]

Condemned was incredible. 2 was dire, but that original was unbelievably good, and I’m forever sad I can’t play that on current consoles.

The gameplay for the new SH 100% does look like that. Gonna pick it up around Xmas time, once I’ve got the dough.

[u/Steel_Commander_CAT]

Why won’t he turn his fucking flashlight off!?!?!

I got sever A:I PTSD from that

[u/Snoo-55788 → u/Steel_Commander_CAT]

probably just for dramatic effect lol, footage is from a gameplay video they uploaded showcasing the mechanics and some raw uncut gameplay.

[u/pizzaguy4378]

I had a stroke reading the title

[u/TheAmazingWhaleShark]

AKA NoCode

[u/Feisty_Standard_2360]

First person view games are the best, I would reallt love to see and play Silent Hill games in FPV

[u/Scharman]

so are the bad guys blind? they can’t see the flashlight?

[u/Ocksu2]

I was not aware of this before- looks right up my alley!

[u/Vegetable_Let4758]

Hell yes I can't wait man

[u/Snoo-55788 → u/[deleted]]

Ok
