Konami Pleased Players Accepted New Silent Hill Game’s Setting Beyond the Town

Silent Hill producer Motoi Okamoto says players responded more positively than negatively to the series moving beyond the town of Silent Hill, though reactions were mixed. He also said Townfall taught Konami a lesson about balancing tension with moments of relief.

Okamoto encouraged fans to watch for the places the series will visit and the studios Konami will work with in the future.

Discussing gameplay, Okamoto stressed the importance of alternating tense moments with calmer stretches. He said Silent Hill 2 strikes a good balance, while Silent Hill f gives players more opportunities to catch their breath. Townfall emphasized nearly constant tension, which drew a more mixed response.
