Wikipedia has had to lock down the Silent Hill 2 Remake page after repeated vandalism from editors who refuse to accept that the remake of Konami’s seminal horror game released to critical acclaim earlier this week.
Outright lies around the games reception and metacritic score - including one edit that said the game had “received the worst reviews imaginable” - means the page has now been put into a semi-protected state to stop unregistered users from making wild, unsubstantiated claims, including one that said Eurogamer had awarded it 0/5 stars when, in fact, it got top marks.
It’s unclear what’s motivating the edits, although its presumed by some to have been fuelled by the nauseating discourse that the game is “woke” because of changes made to the characters facial features and clothing.
Alternatively, it may stem from some fans’ dismayed that Silent Hill 2 has been remade by Bloober Teamor, indeed, at all.
People should really stop doing that kind of bullshit. If you didn’t like the remake post your opinion somewhere, but trying to falsify others scores is a douche move.
I mean I don’t know you but off hand that seems like the more likely scenario. This game doesn’t release until tomorrow so… uhhh, you got a review copy or something?
The people doing this kind of bullshit are either children or fascists. They aren’t interested in “healthy debate” with you. They are lashing out at the Great Woke Bogeyman.
Honestly we should be relieved that the time these brainrotted fascists spend vandalizing Wikipedia isn’t spent sending rape or death threats to the developers, which is usually how these witch-hunts on “woke” go.

But it’s ok when companies pay for their review scores from ‘professionals’?
Nobody was suggesting that.

What about it?
Ok I’m sorry. I mean I’d do it again but I recognize it’s wrong.
You think Konami paid for this game to have good reviews? I havent seen a bad review yet from any reliable outlets so uhhhh, that’s a lot of bribery
I didn’t like it. You want to tell me that my opinion differs from majority and most people like this trash? Preposterous.

It was clearly a joke, I agreed with your comment :)
Ah my bad. Need that sarcasm tag haha
Are Steam review scores paid? Because it sure sits on “overwhelmingly positive” right now.

But it’s not good enough that I have opinion. You must have no opinion or I’m losing!
