Sh2 is thus a poisoned chalice for the series and its fanbase. The westerners especially loved it and it became the dominant part of the online SH fanbase. It's why Downpour and Homecoming were modeled after it, why even Shattered Memories draws on psychological aspects, and why they remade Sh2 first instead of 1 which is way more logical.
Sh1 = fun action-adventure fighting waves of dangerous aggressive animals and raising the stakes and mixing gameplay up with new weapons, enemies, locations. Taps into primal fear of being prey chased by predators. Gameplay and set pieces first.
Sh2 = slow plodding moody game with unthreatening enemies. Story and atmosphere first.
Sh3 = dev team panicking, and overcompensating, with tons of action, enemies, weapons, trying to recapture the SH1 fans, but it was too little too late.
