I just think we need to let it go. It's been dead since the PS2 era. If this list is true:
...it really makes me question the timing and why have so many projects as once? And the only possible interesting thing would be SH5 but it really depends on who the developer is.
According to leakers, Konami looked at REs survival horror resurgence and success, and wanted in. Kind of poetic considering why SH was created in the first place.
But yeah, the only thing on that list with a prayer of being up to 1-4 standards is SH5. I've been hoping for an SH game up to those standards for the better part of my life now, I think. Hasn't happened.
The movie could at least be enjoyable. Gan's wants to leave the cult stuff behind and make an original story that is more psychological in nature (he said that in recent interviews). SH is at its best without the cult IMO. 2 and 4 had the best stories.
I'm not a fan of episodic titles, but Annapurna Interactive is fantastic at atmosphere and emotion. They could give something unique and special, but I'll be weary.
Bloober has always been nothing but misses for me. The only chance an SH2 game has of being good is by not deviating from the original in any way. The good news about them is that they're all SH fans and have been trying to emulate that style of horror for a while now. It's possible they'll be better at copying than making something original. Just do a Bluepoint with this game.
