Post Reported for: Rule 12 - Falsehoods (x3)
OP's source is a 4chan thread. Can someone please confirm that this is or is not in the game? Anyone see any walkthroughs?
Edit - Calling bullshit: game isn't even released yet.
The only thing I could find was ScreenRant demanding Sileng Hill 2 Remake have a trigger warning because "PEOPLE WILL DIE" but not because of the lack of minorities.
Can link to the thread if it's allowed. Now that people are calling it out I too am skeptical, but I didn't really seeing anyone calling it out in the original thread, which is generally the case. Maybe because it wasn't /v/
The original thread isn't evidence. What we need is the actual video of the game opening, which apparently hasn't been released yet in the first place.
There's no way to know whether this is in the game. The only media that has been released for the Silent Hill 2 remake are trailers, and a sort of interview with the development team. Whatever "leaks" have been published are just re-uploads of these with pure speculation. Nothing that has been put out has even hinted at a racial trigger warning.
The games not even released yet?
Yeah, smells like bullshit.
Silent Hill 2 remake for the record.
That's actually hilarious.
I'm about to start campaigning for every game without a Jewish character to include this. I wonder how many studios I can get to put a bullshit 'trigger warning' about the lack of Stars of David in their older games.
Where does this end?
We fedposting now or just in our heads?
Its just a truthful statement, not a threat.
This game does not include: -Jews -Blacks -Asians -Black Asians -Africans -Elon Africans -Fake Egyptians -Real Egyptians -Various extraterrestrials -Various Black extraterrestrials -Joggers -Non-Black Joggers -Clowns -Black Clowns .........etc
You did not see the special ending of SH2....
Do you mean the one with the Shiba Inu ?
Yes
The reality is that Maine is still today 94.4% non-Hispanic white. Areas that Silent Hill is based on are probably skewed even higher.
Not to mention the issues these people have separating reality from fiction.
>silent hill 2
>protraying reality
So um. The warning is due to the monsters not being black? Or maybe it's the dog?
Full character list: https://silenthill.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Silent_Hill_2_Characters
The game consists of only 8 actual characters.
A secluded town in Maine isn't going to have the same demographics as a urban metropolis generally, especially not after the majority of it's residents have moved away due to a floundering tourism industry, supernatural fuckery, and a doomsday cult taking root.
Every town must have the same demographics as the United States of the current year. Even if that town is in 14th century Bohemia. Especially if that town is in 14th century Bohemia.
Ayo, doncha know that Cumans were achually black?
Warning, no niggers around, feel free to leave your car door unlocked..
Is it really bad that whenever they say 'people of colour' we know they mean exclusively black Americans since every other race doesn't have this self entitled behaviour on representation in fictional media.
And these are the same ppl that call us snowflakes
Evil cannot create. Only pervert that which Good has created.
You are, because you're getting outraged over a fake image.
I saw where you looked it up and said it was fake. I’m not outraged but I think these are dumb. I wouldn’t be surprised if such a warning existed. I watch a lot of classic tv and in the last few years a warning has come on before All in the Family ( although some sort of warning came on when it originally aired the first time). I watched a movies with Al Jolson and before the movie they felt the need to provide context about black face. When I read Uncle Tom’s Cabin someone warned me about harsh language. I should’ve done some research but a warning like this wouldn’t surprise me.
I have serious N fatigue.
Weird thing is I don't have white fatigue after decades of life.
Remember kids: Diversity is Divisive!
Yet old games like CS:GO, you get spawned with a random player skin color or Tomb Raider and Portal where you play as a female. Turns out most games don't really give a fuck if the game is well produced. If you're too sensitive to not be able to handle that, just quit gaming and honestly just quit the internet. You've been brainwashed if you need a trigger warning
The image is fake(i think) there isn't any source for it. . But it says a lot about this day and age that this COULD have been legitimate
I've done some digging, and I can't find even a hint of a source that this is legitimate. There is just no way something like this wouldn't have gotten more coverage if it was real. I rate this image fake and gay/10.
no fucking way this is real, i saw no sources for this
Who cares. Honestly at this point any entertainment that doesn’t meet modern day diversity points is a plus. Better chance that it will be good
What if the game is set in Africa and there's no White people?
Doesn't work that way, sweaty. That's already 100% d-i-v-e-r-s-e.
Where there any white people in the movie Boyz N the Hood?
If I find a movie with an all-black cast can I whine they're portraying a reality where whites don't exist?
Wasn't that the whole point of The Wiz? An all black "re-imagining" of the Wizard of Oz. I'm fairly sure there are a few other movies like this.
That post is like Trump's steak...well done
Judging by what happened with RE 5, it still racist
Makes a fantasy game
"Why aren't there any black or LGBTQZ#£§ people in it??!!"
"It's a fantasy."
At least this part is right.
Asteroid, where are thou?
Population is 99.9999% chinese! but there is 0.000001% black person. so we must include! lol..........
What about Ghosts of Tsushima?
May I suggest piracy?

Day 47:
The time I have gone without exposure to the magic Negro race has taken it's toll. It has caused me permanent emotional damage. I have become desperate. I have glued marshmallows to a coconut in order to satiate my need for ebony camaraderie. I have named the coconut Mr. DuBouis, and have attempted to sing rap songs with him. However, my incurable whiteness has caused me to forget the rap lyrics, many of which include the n-word which may offend him, and as such can not be said. I wander the LaCrosse field, delirious and half-naked, screaming "Fuck the Poh Lease" at Mr. DuBouis in the hopes that he will either respond, or that I may attract a nearby black, but to no avail. For a moment, I assumed that I would find refuge in the arms of the janitorial crew, but they were Latinx, and could not help me.
I do not know how much longer I have. If this letter reaches my friends and loved ones, tell them that I wasn't racist.
I'd rather have the content warnings about lack of diversity than having EVERY games plagued by diversity. Surely, getting rid of the entire progressive politics in games would be great but that's not going to happen.
Can you search steam games by this disclaimer? I'm thinking it would be pretty funny to screw with their analytics using this. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when they discuss it.
... there are like six characters in the game. How is not actively having a black person the same as 'portraying reality as existing without' them? What the fuck? Is it portraying reality as existing without electricians, Norwegians or giraffes just because it doesn't depict them?
This is a dark road to go down. We are descending into utter insanity.
Though, is this fake? There was an 'article' about them removing the nurses from the game for being oversexualized, and that turned out to be fake. This is about the same level of stupidity, so I have to ask.
I guess portraying a Utopia needs a trigger warning.
Remember that Saints Row "abort mission" screen we got so up in arms about?
Remember when we learned it was fake?
the funny thing is that its believable lol.
make your own instead of ruining mine.
Their rhetoric is just so, so shit-eating lol. They gonna get mad if they walk into a gas station men’s room and there is only person in there and he happens to be white? “THIS TOILET IS WHITEWASHING REALITY!!! BLATANT COLORED PEOPLE OF COLOR ERASURE IN THIS SHITTER!!!”
new seal of approval
Pretty much no diversity in the town I live in.
Lack of diversity has become a precious commodity. :')
So am I to assume that there'll be trannies? Cause if there's no trannies then I need my trigger warning too man /s
But yeh if it's real they can go fuck themselves, I ain't playing this shit. Putting that retarded message basically destroyed any good will they'd get from not black washing characters so they can go fuck themselves
You’ve learned the cycle I see. Lol
hey, it was funny in Homecoming
Edit: Also, the first black character in the SH series, Toby Archbolt, is canonically a pedo. lol
this. it's even a meme.
white guy shoots black guy = racist bigots victimizing blacks!
black guy shoots white guy = racist bigots pushing conspiracy theories of white genocide!
white guy shoots white guy = racist bigots doesn't include blacks!
black guy shoots black guy = racist bigots saying blacks are all thugs!
no matter what you do, they will rationalize it as racist. stop tiptoeing around these retards.
Correct! If I had been a famous writer or artist or movie maker or whatever, I’d just answer all criticism of that kind by saying “I don’t write for your movement.”
Change out “write” for whatever verb is most appropriate to the art form I was in.
