   @Torgo @rasterman i'm most upset about the "camera modernization." anyone who has played sh2 knows that the controls and camera are not bad at all, they've just played resident evil 1 and assume every game with fixed camera angles plays exactly like that.

   the fixed camera angles are a way to control the mood and what the player is able to see. imagine you're watching a horror movie and the whole time the camera is hovering behind the main character. it just doesn't work as well as purposefully made shots.

   they'll inevitably have to change stuff to make the new camera work, and idk man i feel like they're just going to copy-paste RE2 remake's style even though RE is a completely different game.

     @beardalaxy @Torgo @Rasterman basically modern slasher films vs a classic like Texas chain saw massacre being more of an art house film than a slasher

     @beardalaxy @Rasterman @Torgo I've watch Texas chain massacre the original version from the 70's
     Theres like little gore and what gore is shown is is barely shown at all
     Though but the way the camera shots are delivered and tone of the movie is what makes it fucking great to rewatch than something like it where it's not very scary besides infants and teenage girls

     @luithe @rasterman @Torgo i'm honestly super out of the loop when it comes to movies in general these days, i haven't seen a horror movie since that IT remake and i thought it was stupid

     @luithe @Rasterman @beardalaxy I need to catch up on a lot of old horror/slashers. I've watched a ton of Carpenter but only the first Halloween, and only the first two Nightmare on Elm Street/Hellraiser films.

     @Torgo @rasterman @luithe i'd say the lighthouse counts. i still haven't seen the whole movie, just some scenes of it, but it seems like a descent into madness. i know the story it was based on and it's definitely horrifying.

     @beardalaxy @luithe @Rasterman I did like Hereditary but that one is chock full of very Jewish neuroses so maybe if you're redpilled it can be hard to appreciate the discomforting atmosphere over that. Trying to think of a horror movie I watched after that, and I'm unsure if the Lighthouse counts.

     @beardalaxy @Rasterman @luithe It's based on something else?

     @beardalaxy @Rasterman A lot of the horror, especially from the late stretch of the game, really did come from what you weren't able to see until it was absolutely necessary to confront or react to. Rotating the bathrooms and hallways in all directions like an action game would really mess that up.

     @Torgo @rasterman yeah, the horror in an RE game for instance is a bit more thrilling, whereas in silent hill it's more chilling.
