The point is that the leftover energies from Silent Hill 1 are the reason for Silent Hill 2. The dude is basically just manipulating, through his subconsciousness, the energies that were left over from Silent Hill 1. Silent Hill 2 has multiple relations to the gods. In one ending, he specifically straight up says, there are still the gods in this place, and they can literally rebirth people. And that is definitely Valtiel, as seen in sh3 and stated by ito himself. Next, you also have the founder of the religion, which was burnt. The religion and cult are still extremely important. They were in 1, 3, and 4. Only in 2, they are only alluded to. And for some reason, the entire fanbase is stating that the cult is just some minor background thing, despite being the very core reason for the entire plot in 1, 3, and 4. In 4 specifically, Valtiel is imprinted upon the psyche of Walter, wanting him to rebirth God. But I guess people just need to play Silent Hill, and sadly they have not done that except for 2. Almost all of silent hill is about god and the cult, only 2 is about the personal life of James.
