I guess between this and f Silent Hill itself isn't relevant anymore in the other world stuff or necessary. Turning it into an FPS is a choice though much like f was more melee combat focused. Not really my thing or something I'll check out but I doubt they can capture the original Team Silent feel of the first four games so maybe doing entirely new stuff is for the best so it can stand on it's own.

For what it's worth, P.T. was seemingly going to be first person as well, had that not been cancelled. But I absolutely do get if the series isn't resonating with you like the older stuff was.

That's technically incorrect. While P.T. was in first person, the game it was teasing - Silent Hills - was going to be a traditional 3rd person game with Norman Reedus, though Kojima did also want to consider having first person segments as well, similar to SH4 The Room.

Silent Hill The Short Message was entirely first person, and there was also a first person arcade shooter game.
