Try to find a Silent Hill fan who ever thought the series had good gameplay...
Hells, I thought SH4 was a step above SH3 despite the fact that it's gameplay took about two big steps back.
I would say the most important thing for me would be a well constructed WORLD...
And I don't necessarily mean it has to have a gigantic area that you can explore willy-nilly, I just mean a world that feels like it's been lived in, has a story behind it, is well designed (artistically and functionally), etc...
I don't mind cutscenes, but finding a way to incorporate them into a gameplay experience (HL2 would be the only example I can think of off the top of my head) certainly doesn't hurt...
And as a side note, I curse whoever came up with QTEs...
