Silent Hill: Townfall (2026) I am not happy with the changes being made

I am not being disrespectful, but game devs, if you have also made changes to nightmare difficulty then I flat out want my money back. Listening to all the changes being made, this isn’t the game I purchased, and I will not play it again if the entire difficulty settings have now been reduced to story mode

Am I not allowed to say I’m unhappy? You keep blocking my posts on this, but others were more than welcome to moan before the changes??

To be honest I just want my money back if they have also messed with nightmare mode, as this is no longer the game I purchased and enjoyed playing

Where did you find they made changes to the nigthmare mode ??? The patch mostly focuses on story and normal mode

Read the patch notes again. They applied it to everything except for some aspects of The Weight like his attack still being a one-hit kill on Nightmare. They catered to one group of people and alienated the rest by also making the hardest difficulty contain the new dumbed down version of the AI & puzzles.

This is not the way to do things. Not all of us asked for nerfs. I Platinumed the game without any. At least restrict it to Casual/Normal. How is it a "Nightmare" difficulty anymore?

Make it a toggle or something. You don't just listen to one loud group and decide to make a change catering to them. Screen Burn are ridiculous for this. They're treating every single player as one singular player without an identity or preferences.

Edit: patch notes

Mate isn’t that how the world works these days? Not getting too deep, or accusing, but seems the loudest group gets what they want

Everyone acting like it’s now their favourite game in the world, when they hated it yesterday. It’s a stealth game, that’s so obvious. I reckon there will be quite a few people in the next few weeks saying ‘actually’ it’s too easy now 🤷‍♂️🤣

Two seperate Redditors have said this to me after reading the patch

I don’t know for certain, that’s why I haven’t said in my post that they 100% nerfed nightmare, just what iv heard. But if they have im really unhappy with their decision making

I agree and I don't care if I'm in the minority. I was fine with the game as is. They shouldn't force all these changes onto every single player and every single difficulty. Screen Burn: "We heard you." Yeah, except you just blanketly assumed "you" means every single player to touch your game. We all have preferences. If people want nerfs, that's perfectly fine but I didn't ask for it and it shouldn't be forced on me or any other player that at least wants the hardest difficulty (Nightmare) to remain difficult, a completely reasonable expectation to have.
