The thing that's sold me most on Silent Hill f so far is its slightly outdated UI

Summary
A new game in the Silent Hill series, titled Silent Hill f, was showcased at a Konami event, alongside a teaser for a remake of the first Silent Hill game.
Silent Hill f’s UI appears to be outdated; however, the writer believes that it is more thoughtful and interesting than modern Triple-A game UIs, which they claim usually feature “simple, emboss-free graphic design”.
They prefer the “light ugliness” of Silent Hill f’s UI, which evokes the PlayStation 3 era, as it reminds them of games such as Dark Souls.
Silent Hill f focuses on gameplay, with combat mechanics being “fresh, but familiar… and not overly complex”, according to game director Al Yang.
The writer is more interested in Silent Hill f than the remake, as they enjoy the “vibes” of the series and are morbidly curious about whether the game’s world can be successfully expanded.
Silent Hill f is scheduled to release on 25 September 2022.
