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.

But it's not good enough that I have opinion. You must have no opinion or I'm losing!
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.
Of course it's forever-toddlers throwing a tantrum about "woke" again.
God forbid the vast majority of normal people don't agree with whatever pathetic rationalisation they have ended up with in their gullible little minds.
I think it's nice to see the popular gamer rhetoric getting it wrong this time i.e. non Kojima remake = bad.
Hopefully it leads to more nuanced discussion in the future?
Never got that. A remake and its original counterpart can co-exist - one doesn't make the other worse or the other way around. What's the issue?
It’s not about the original being overtaken; these specific losers are mad because they had declared it “woke trash” before it came out, because of the redesigns of Angela, and are pitching a hissy fit that the game is actually good.
Huh, what's wrong with the redesign? Haven't heard of anything
They made her look like an actual teenager, which somehow equaled “making her ugly” to these weirdos.
Some people think there is this magical thing called canon. If something is canon and you heavily dislike it, it messes up your enjoyment for whole franchise and you no longer can enjoy previous entries that you grew up with.
Point of clarification: the article was semi-protected, and "locked" is an oversimplistic description of it (understandable, since a lot of people who report on Wikipedia don't really understand how it works). Technically there's a way to lock a page such that only the Wikimedia Foundation staff can edit it, but realistically, full protection (i.e. only administrators and those above them can edit it) is probably the closest thing to a proper "lock" that ever gets used.
Semi-protection (the grey lock with a little person in it) just means that you need to be autoconfirmed (technically confirmed works too, but that system is basically disused). If you're autoconfirmed, that means you've made at least 10 edits on Wikipedia and your account is at least 4 days old – an extremely low bar to clear that largely keeps out spam from IP addresses and sockpuppet accounts. The semi-protection on this article is set to expire in three days.
There's also extended protection (the blue lock with an 'E' on it) that you'll generally see on highly contentious topics such as ultra-high-profile political figures, enormously contentious disputes between nations (Russia–Ukraine, Israel–Palestine, and India–Pakistan, to name a few), and then some miscellaneous ones like 'Atlantic Records' and 'Whopper' (the latter was because Burger King launched an ad which is designed to trigger your Android device to read out the first part of the Wikipedia article, making it red meat for vandals). This requires an account to have at least 500 edits and be at least 30 days old.
The silent hill wiki folks sure are a rowdy bunch. This one's pretty tame for them though, it's decidedly lacking in rants about circumcision.
Ayyy I know that reference. Good story that one.
Aren't people bored of constantly being upset?
Cortisol is one of the more addictive drugs, in my opinion
Not if you made “being upset” your character trait. There are too many kids (and adults with the mental capability of kids) who fall for this crap over and over again. It wouldn’t be that frustrating when they got upset about stuff that’s actually real.
This is why we don’t have nice things
Gmers being Gmers
I bet none of the little shits even played the original. They probably think Pyramid Head was just the town's old executioner. And not the personification of James guilt over his unhealthy view of women.
Why? The original didn't go anywhere, and they're just screwing us out of possible remakes my faking bad press. So far, I've heard that they knocked it out of the park and I hope it's true. ~~Give me my SH4 remake~~

Bro don't make me like them T~T
Aside from wiki drama seems like a bunch of nothing with good reviews from Steam and it seeming to not have any drama people would be aware of if it wasn't for the article. Without it people wouldn't know about the wiki stuff with how quickly it was dealt with.
Not seeing any drama on /r/silenthill too.
And yet the article manages to get people upset, makes the talk about it and get shared. Basically free marketing for SH2. It's a win-win for eurogamer and for the game publisher. All it takes is a single troll on Wikipedia and some PR work.
I don't know what it is, with this need to shit on every single movie or game before it even comes out. There are people who cheer for this stuff to fail, it's absurd . It goes hand in hand with this other issue, when a game is released people will either love it or be called "unplayable shit". Nobody has an in between anymore. Just cause some games aren't a 10/10 masterpiece, it doesn't mean they're shit.
I heard it in some podcast that humans developed a knack to pay attention to negativity as it could help with survivability. Social media hacks into that trait by amplifying negativity.

There is money in it, just a grift.
I get why some people are mad at the facial changes, I personally think it’s unnecessary, but if the game is good who cares. But making up false reviews to bring down a game just because you disagreed with how they handled something is crazy.
The characters look like their voice actors. I like the change, personally.
Woke is when I cant jerk to every women in a game discussing toxic male behaviors.
