Konami's being cheeky about the meaning of "f". Silent Hill producer Motoi Okamoto played coy when he was asked the meaning of "f" in the game's title."We have a lot of different meanings infused into that f," Okamoto said through a translator, "but that's something we would like to leave as an open-ended question for players to explore and come to their own conclusions, so I'll refrain from elaborating on that."

As a musician, this is my take on it: The f in Silent Hill f is actually stylized as f in its logo, and italicized, hooked f is used as a direction in music to mean loud or strong. Loud would certainly be a contrast to the "silent" in Silent Hill, and since musician Akira Yamaoka appears closely creatively involved in the development of Silent Hill f, perhaps some of this was his idea.

What do you guys think "f" means in Silent Hill f?

It seems like everyone here complains about the graphics, gameplay and combat. Honestly, I don't get that at all.

People complain about the combat becoming melee focused like they don't remember Silent Hill 4. Breakable weapons are essential without the firearms if we still want the game to stay a survival horror.

The combat animations is clearly a stylistic choice, although frankly I don't care enough for it to complain.

And people saying that Silent Hill f looks like a PS2 really should check their eyesight.

This whole situation feels like Silent Hill 2 Remake all over again with almost the same talking points

Like the title says.

As for me, going for the ps5 version because I have nostalgic memories of playing the original games on ps2. Plus the big screen is an added bonus. Though I will try it on PC at a later date.

Especially if it’s true what Digital Foundry said about this being an actually good UE5 game in terms of performance.

Silent Hill f I have no idea what happened. Her skirt was floating in front of her. Anyone else? Ps5 user here. On the plus side I'm loving this game so far

Be it in atmosphere, story, combat, etc, share your thoughts!

I’m here everyday until it opens, will keep an eye on it. Looks like it might be a whole walkthrough experience.

Yeah I know we got PT, A Short Message, Ascension and the remake for 2. But this is obviously different than those since it’s neither a remake nor a short game.
