Konami gave us an extended look at how Silent Hill f plays earlier this month, and the horror prequel places a much heavier emphasis on combat than I expected. With mechanics like a stamina bar, timed dodges and a powerful counterattack ability, you'd be forgiven for thinking that Silent Hill f looks rather like a soulslike.
Konami has readily admitted to Silent Hill f's more combat-oriented focus. A few weeks back, Motoi Okamoto stated that "inserting more entertaining and thrilling action" is a big part of the project. Yet in a more recent interview, Okamoto pushed back against the soulslike comparisons, insisting that Silent Hill f isn't one.
