Silent Hill: Townfall's latest gameplay trailer reminds me why the series shouldn't have guns
A new 18-minute gameplay trailer for Silent Hill: Townfall showcases protagonist Simon Ordell navigating the hostile town of St. Amelia. The author expresses a preference for the game's melee combat over firearms, arguing that guns can diminish the series' signature tension and fear. While acknowledging other horror games like Amnesia: The Bunker can balance guns with stress, the article suggests Townfall would be more effective with minimal firearms and a greater emphasis on close-quarters combat and stealth.
