Silent Hill: Ascension

Valiant effort.

Although the story develops slowly, there are several things that I would like to highlight about the story.

-The interactions and objectives of "the Order" had never been seen from the inside, which gives a point in favor of the expansion of the Silent Hill universe.

-Here the fact is left aside that only the protagonist and co-stars are able to see the changes in reality, which helps to know what the inhabitants of Silent Hill or surrounding places felt.

-Outside of what has been mentioned, the monsters are original but correctly following the style of the franchise, at least in monsters and setting, the world of blood, fog and monsters is well represented.

-The motivations of the characters are clear and understandable.

-I thought the community interaction was great, despite the negative reviews I have seen on the internet, the broadcasts are full of good expectations and good reception.

-It is difficult for a series in which the public themselves chose the decisions to go wrong, in this case it seems like an interesting approach and so far I am satisfied.

-The action scenes are interactive just like a TTG (tell tale games) style visual novel.

-There are several not very exciting activities that complement the experience but as a concept it seems very good to me, the only bad thing is how short the episodes are.

God bless the voice actors. And if you want the most impotent, repetitive monsters you've ever seen, and an endless, boring soap opera, then this is for you. Oh, and of course there's the lamest 1990s game-play character editions. I watched the whole thing out of a morbid curiosity, and some kind of misplaced dedication to the genuinely creeping and frightening SH movies. In episode 16, when something actually started to happen, I was so starved for any kind of forward action I actually expressed my gratitude out loud. He fact that I sat through the whole thing says more about me than the show... and what it says is not healthy.

A completely disjointed storyline, incomprehensible character writing and editing, it's amazing it got made. The voice acting is miserable, but is matched only by how bad the animation is. I have no clue what the story is supposed to be, or what any character motivations are. Every scene is both completely forgettable and reaching new depths of misery. Silent Hill Ascension fails completely on every single level. This isn't even including the absolute mess that is the paid "season pass" that offers almost nothing, the insane background characters designed by the audience, or the fact that decisions are made by the highest bidder, despite them doing apparently nothing to the story. It's so bad it's almost entertaining. I can't wait to watch the documentary in 10 years about how somehow people who have presumably watched a TV show before allowed this to be made.

Some of the worst garbage I've ever seen.

You can't convince me this was written and directed by human beings. It drips with the stink of AI-generated trash.

The animations are janky. The performances are universally flat and one-note. The character models are dead-eyed and lifeless. The dialogue is stilted, incoherent, and every scene is bumbling and aimless in search of a purpose that never materialises.

As abused as the Silent Hill franchise has been, it has never reached this utter nadir of ineptitude and creative bankruptcy before.

Everyone associated with this 'product' should be personally ashamed.

No one should ever make anything like this ever again.

This is the worst that has happened to this franchise. The writing is abysmal, nothing fits or makes sense, there is so much forced exposition, nothing feels authentic. Its like the characters don't even hear what the others are saying at times. No wonder people think this is AI generated.

The animation is not much better. Its like PS2 level of animation upscaled to PS 3 level. There are tiny glimpses of good animation but the majority feels incredibly outdated.

The voice acting can't get anything across and seems wodden and monotone most of the time. When the voice acting is there, it doesn't fit the animation.

Silent Hill Ascension is only worth your time when you come together and laugh about how bad it is.
