The fervor surrounding the Silent Hill 2 Remake has taken a peculiar turn as fans, seemingly displeased with the game's direction, have taken to editing its Wikipedia page. These edits included fabricating lower review scores from various sources, leading to a wave of misinformation about the game's reception.
The Internet Speculates an "Anti-Woke" Motive Behind the Edits
In response to the unauthorized changes, Wikipedia has implemented semi-protection on the Silent Hill 2 Remake's page to prevent further alterations. This action was taken after it became evident that certain groups of fans were unhappy with the remake, developed by Bloober Team, and were attempting to skew public perception with false review scores. The specific reasons for this backlash against the game remain murky, but the issue has been addressed, with the page now corrected and secured against further vandalism.
The Silent Hill 2 Remake entered early access recently, with a full release scheduled for October 8. Despite the negative actions by some fans, the game has garnered positive feedback from critics. Notably, Game8 awarded it a score of 92/100, praising its ability to evoke strong emotional responses from players.
