So, I got a buddy who's wanting me to play Silent Hill f, because he says it's really good. The only problem is, I can't really handle gore. My aforementioned friend knows this, and says the gore is *relatively* tame, but also his gore threshold is a lot higher than mine, so tame to him could be too much for me.
I did watch [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1e1gmnNoj8]the trailer[/url], but it's hard to tell. It's teetering right on the brink. But, if I *do* play the game, I might be able to use that to get him to play Noctuary in kind, so if I can handle it, it might be worth giving a go.
I'm sure someone on this subforum has played it, so if any of you kind peoples could tell me how bad you think it is, that would be much appreciated.
The pulsating fleshy masses everywhere didn't bother me much, but the biggest concern I had was a 1:46 in the trailer. There's just kinda some unidentifiable gore bits on the ground, and I can handle a [i]little bit[/i] of that, but if that's super common, that's definitely too much.
Or if there's anything else you think that might be an issue, let me know.
Thank you in advance.
Also you should play Noctuary.
That's all for now, folks, jambuhbye!

1 ReplySilent Hill 2 Remake has less gore and is much better than f. I don’t think you should play either of them…

Two of the bosses could be seen as kinda gorey (one has a hole in her chest and her lower jaw ripped open while another has her face removed so it's just a flat, pulsating crossection of the inside of her head). There's also a large pregnancy monster, which some might find disturbing. There are also some human doll looking things made of sickly flesh, but they're not really gorey. Other than that there are some torture scenes like a person having their arm sawed off, face peeled off, and back branded. Often the torture starts on screen the cuts away a split second in, like right after the injtial incision or saw biting in. You're not spared in sound design though. You'll hear every scream. As for organ bits and chunks laying around, there're some veiny looking vines with fleshy bulbs but it's technically overgrowth. And that's kinda the thing. It's less about the gore and more about the psychological horror Hinako is going through. It's more disturbing than disgusting.
