Genya: Saints, I suppose a person's favourite gemstone does say a lot about them... you're right, I deserve better. What's more valuable than an emerald?

Ruby: Well, anything, if it's on you.

Genya:.. A ruby, then.

Ruby: Hm... Gemstone fact, a ruby is actually stronger than an emerald.

Genya: Hmh...

Boo!

By the way, this beautiful Fanart of theirs is not mine and the credits are not for me but I warn you that right here I am going to leave you the link of the true creator of this beautiful masterpiece on Tumblr

“Face your trauma together.”

Well, the Premiere was last night (Halloween, 9PMET/6PM)...

It was definitely rough, which was extremely disappointing, but almost to be expected of a historic event like this. The skeletal structure of this horror ID (Interactive Drama) is strong, but all the guts and even the skin of it are weak.

1.) Please don't spend any money on this "game", it is so obviously a cash-grab. Purchasing cosmetics for your avatar, and then spending even more money for the chance of your avatar appearing in a future installment of the series. Plus, the pay-to-win model of having to spend cash for influence points so you can control the course of events.

2.) The stream itself wasn't the greatest quality, I guess there was a QTE (quick-time event) towards the end of the premiere in which one of the main characters was fleeing a monster, but I didn't even see it, too much stuttering and poor latency. None of the community understood how to perform the actions either which led to the failure of the QTE which is supposed to make it harder for the character to survive.

3.) Ugly game graphics for what is slated as a "show" from a streaming service. People waited 10 years, and it broke pre-registration records, just to be unable to study the monsters or imagery? I think not.

4.) The pacing is way too fast for the story to develop any of the atmospheric suspense or tension from the game series. Bounces between two character plots with no warning, and every minute or so. We have also been given no time to care about any of the characters, we're just thrown into a woman dying and a man's dying wife treating him like shit and supposed to decide these people's fates.

5.) Unmoderated live group chat for a semi-popular piece of pop-culture...nuff said.

Idk, I genuinely want to appreciate and enjoy this very cool contemporary idea. But, if the premiere is any indicator of how the remainder of this is going to go, it's gonna suck and it's gonna defile the legacy of Silent Hill forever. It's supposed to dictate canon, and it could just go so horribly off the rails. I don't think it was what anybody expected. I wanted to play a game with an entire community or fanbase of one of my favorite horror franchises. The only puzzle solving you can do is essentially pixel chasing for more influence points.

Kaz/ Inej: can maybe tolerate the "Kazej" incident and correct gently the website, but will go balistic at the very much though of "Inaz"

Jesper/Wylan: Somehow became "wesper" despite the author calling them "Wysper" in an old tweet.Also praying show! newcomers don't bring "Jeslan" back

Nina/Matthias: Forever blessing whoever came with "Helnik" before fandom made popular something like "Matthina" or brr "Nitthias"

Alina/Mal : Also pretty happy with their outcome (while i bump my head over and over that they didn't used "Sunblade" when it was right there and i am the only one that calls them like that,even if i didn't came out with that name but a mutual that doesn't even ship them...sorry, i kinda broke here)

Zoya/Nikolai: Pretty much came up with "Zoyalai" naturally
