Konami has teamed up with Online Ceramics, a deliberately ostentatious fashion house, to create a line of Silent Hill 2-themed merchandise. With T-shirts, hoodies, pants, and more, clothes look like they were put together by someone with access to Google Images. a copy of Microsoft Paint and a stunning lack of aesthetic sensibility.
Of course, this is just my opinion and the world seems to almost unanimously disagree with me, but this style of “someone left me alone in the computer lab at school and I did it one afternoon” is in many ways a trademark of online ceramics. , and I think it fits perfectly with the ghostly 90s vibe in Silent Hill 2. I wouldn’t have the guts to put on the same aggressive shout as this sweatshirt with a blurry photo of Maria and the quote “I don’t look like a ghost, don’t right?” but if I see Someone wearing it and I’m probably doing whatever they tell me to do.
But alas, Silent Hill 2 fans are not as excited as I am. All of the responses to Konami’s Twitter announcement contained some variation of “bruh” and most viewed the collaboration as another indictment of Konami’s treatment of Silent Hill as a series. roy_oddities responded on Twitter: “Really confusing how many bad decisions you guys make as a company, Silent Hill deserves to be in the best hands.”
Another user, allenr85, suggested “throw T-shirts in the trash and sell them for $300″ on the Online Ceramics site and even showed off samples of what they can do.
Fuck Konami If you want someone to put some crap on a T-shirt and sell it for $300, hire me. Here I’ll give you an example of what I can do pic.twitter.com/AmwQyjX6DZ April 13, 2023 .
On the Silent Hill subreddit, SirPhobos1, who voted the most for the collaboration announcement, wrote: “This is nonsense. Especially with the ceramic online name on them. It’s like someone made a shirt with their inkjet printer in 2006.”
“Like this should mean that there is a serious case of failure,” they concluded. Hey, that’s probably a fair assessment.
I guess it costs a lot more than what I personally spend on clothes ($60 for a T-shirt!), but this is a general fashion phenomenon and not a specific criticism of Konami or Online Ceramics. If, like me, you are brave enough to admit that this material is good, you can find the entire collection on the Online Ceramics website. If you just want to check out some weirder outfits, here are some of my favorites:
One of Josh’s earliest memories is playing Quake 2 on his home computer when he was too young to play, and he’s been obsessed with the game ever since. His work has been featured in Vice, Fanbyte and the Financial Times. He can play just about anything and has written too much on everything from visual novels to Assassin’s Creed. Most of all, he loves RPGs, immersive simulations, and any game whose ambition exceeds his budget. He thinks you guys were too violent with Deus Ex: Invisible War.
