As Silent Hills will never come to fruition (as after Hideo Kojima’s departure, Konami doesn’t seem to care about the series whatsoever…), this could be a good replacement.

The mod, named Whispering Hills, could be defined as a post-nuclear Silent Hill. It makes Fallout 4 quite foggy: it adds no less than ten different thick fog weather effects to Commonwealth, making you unprepared for what awaits you on the next corner. The sounds were also changed and replaced to more creepy audio, and if this still doesn’t convince you, how about being dragged into the otherworld to fight ghouls, Silent Hill nurses, mutant dogs, and Twin-Head Screamers for a couple of minutes. The mod is about a year old, but it recently got updated with a creature named Sirenhead, which made us go lol when we first saw it. (Maybe it’s still the holiday food that impacts us.)

You can find the mod on ModDB by clicking here. It’s safe to say that the mods kept Fallout 4 alive and kicking, and it could make it a better pick over Fallout 76 (one of the biggest flops of recent years, possibly, although Anthem competes with that), which had an exploit hack over Christmas that made players lose their power armour and be in their underwear with their inventory stolen. (We previously discussed it in detail with video.) Fallout 4 can’t have that, and it allows you to heavily customise your game, allowing Todd Howard’s game takes a quite survival horror-ish turn. (Todd is nowadays working on the next-gen game Starfield, which will use the same engine as Fallout 76, making us worried instead of excited.)

Let’s end with the video then – watch it at your own risk. We have warned you…
