The upcoming game Silent Hill f has intrigued fans with its slightly outdated UI, which stands out from the modern trends in triple-A games.
The UI of Silent Hill f, showcased during Konami's Press Start event, resembles a style from the PS3 era, offering a unique and thoughtfully designed approach.
Contrary to the simplistic and clean designs prevalent in current games, Silent Hill f's UI features elements like health bars, stamina indicators, and distinctive graphical bars, adding an appealing 'light ugliness' reminiscent of PS3 titles.
Director Al Yang emphasized creating a combat system in Silent Hill f that is both fresh and familiar, adhering to the series' thematic essence without unnecessary complexity.
The gameplay of Silent Hill f, as revealed in the showcase, involves typical elements like wielding a metal pipe, aligning with the series' established style.
The game's atmosphere and aesthetic, set in the Showar era to explore forgotten customs and superstitions, aim to captivate players with immersive vibes and concept art.
Silent Hill f's exploration of unique themes and the long-awaited new entry in the series has generated more interest among fans compared to the announced remake of the first game.
Scheduled for release on September 25th this year, Silent Hill f offers a blend of nostalgia, intriguing design choices, and a promise of expanding the beloved franchise's world.
