Everytime I see (or someone points me in the direction, like this time) a potential new Silent Hill sim I'm so excited I fall miserably into depression because as soon as I step inside there's everything BUT Silent Hill.

Let's make an urban scene, stick some arcane SH symbol
on the wall and the trick is done! |
Aaaand so you would think that after years and years of tries, someone finally managed to build something decent.. and.. no. You're wrong.
When, a lot of years ago, Toluca Lake sim (RIP) got closed, a very big hole was left in my memory and those of all the nice people that used to live there. As time passed, the Silent Hill sim became in order: a beach, an adult sim for sex games, a residential area, another beach park.. and finally got back into the hands of someone that was apparently willing to bring it back to the original vibe.
So wrong.
I'll let piccies speak for me.

| Evverybody knows the PIZZA RESTAURANT in Silent Hill. It's a key location. |
 |
| Apparently, adding some gore-oriented bidimensional ghost should create the perfect silenthillish atmosphere. |
 |
| Oh god I'm scared. No, seriously, I'm bloody scared: just imagine how long a math interview could be if you had to fill those up. Ah, school days.. lol |
 |
| The infamous clown of silen.... wait. what?!?!?! *facepalms* |
 |
| Copyright police!!! I think we have a trouble down here! Someone let RE:Apocashit zombies loose on the set! |
 |
| So the last thing I had to do was lifting away the only REALLY silenthillish thing that this sim has: windlight preset. And here we come: the same, old, boring, noobie urban-apocalyptic premade city. |

Where has fantasy gone? Where has the will to create something unique gone? If you're just aiming to make money and popularity out of some famous franchise, please refrain. I know that the 90% of SL is now made of stupid barbies with more silicone in their heads than stars in the sky, but the few normal peoples left will cringe at the sight of things like this.
