>in the OG she is too much of a cheap hooker

Yeah, I played the OG. I played it on PS3 because I never had a PS2. I wasn't a fan of the original Maria beyond her being a woman. I actually cared about the remake Maria. I installed a mod that shows every single trigger for the Maria ending and I did them like side quests. One of them actually asks you to let her get grabbed until she takes damage, and then you have to save her or it's game over. That's what MariaReceivedDamage is.

I don't think you'll understand why everyone loved Silent Hill 2 if you play the original in 2025. It's one of those "amazing for the time" games. It would be like playing Baldur's Gate 1 or 2 after you know what modern games look like.

Any game you have fun playing helps with loneliness.

Are you old? I think loneliness is part of being old.

I had a lot of fun playing Silent Hill 2. It's even fun to replay because you feel like you don't have enough time with Maria, and playing the game again solves that problem.

>I genuinely feel like it's astroturfed to hell and back and the people obsessed with it are incredibly autistic

Probably. I think their game looks like shit, and that's why I never played it. Am I meant to pretend the graphics are good, like everyone in those threads are pretending they're women? I'll pass. I'll play something that doesn't look older than the people discussing it.
