Gamers Are Worried That the Trailers Show What the Game Will Look Like and Whether It Should Be Delayed Further
Over the past few years, we have seen a lot of different remakes of many games that were once popular decades ago. Silent Hill 2 is one of those games, and even back when it was released, it wasn’t necessarily a poor quality game as it did use some of the best graphics at the time.
This is something that many gamers look forward to when it comes to a remake, as they expect better graphics that blow them away, especially since technology has evolved to create engines that are practically lifelike.
Sadly, from the look of the recent trailers, fans are worried that Konami hasn’t put its full effort into the remake; one commenter even went as far as to say, “lol in trailer it was looks like 2 years from ready.” Keep in mind that it was stated at the time that the trailer would not be the finished product and would advance by the time of its release, but players are still concerned that it could be the final result and the developers could have spent more time on the game.
