What did he mean by this?

>>713850935 (OP)
you were killing random civilians all the time but they looked like monsters in the game

>They looked like monsters to you? *left eye and right eye move apart*

>>713850935 (OP)
Based Vinny was just 'aving a giggle

>>713850935 (OP)
It's just a prank bro

Its like Song of Saya where he sees the monsters are beautiful

>>713850935 (OP)
>>713851032
They look like angels or something equally "good" to cultists.

>>713851157
50 bucks for what?

Don't worry, it's just a joke.

Whatever you'd rate SH3 based on its merits as a game, this cutscene raises it a full point on its own. One of the franchise's absolute best.

>>713851504
3 is my favorite SH.
Best gameplay, horror elements, and dialogue methinks.

>>713851569
>>713851718
nigga survived silent hill and killed a god just to die in his char against a shitty boss

>>713851286
for that double self inbred demon pussy

>>713851569
What is it with japs and having op characters die because they were distracted? He could tank God's flames but not a rusty machete?

>>713852402
He's not OP, he's just a guy with a gun.

>>713853189
Getting mauled by monsters doesn't slow him down and he doesn't eat, drink or sleep. he is clearly no regular guy.

>>713853758
Anyone can go 3-4 hours without basic needs in a self defense scenario. Also he can die in gameplay and in cutscenes.

>>713851934
>>713852402
he forgot the controls after 16 years and had to first try it because he had no access to CONTINUE as he is no longer the MC

>>713854056
he didn't spend 3-4 hours exploring an unknown ghost town fighting off monsters and solving wacky puzzles while shifting dimensions

>>713854169
All in the living room, too; or unliving room, I should say.

>>713852402
He lost his hammer in the intervening years.

>>713855325

>>713855363
Nothing, I just made this webm last night after installing the over the shoulder camera mod and thought it was funny.

Eileen shaving

>they look like women to you?

>>713853758
He wasn't regular guy... he was a father

>>713851157
wait is this really in the game

>>713850935 (OP)
He was just fucking with her, he says as much right after

>>713857808
Yeah, look up silent hill 3 heather vincent secret cutscene

You need to be playing on Extra New Game mode after having unlocked both endings and you need to be wearing the "Don't Touch" shirt when you trigger the Vincent library cutscene (although Heather goes back into her normal costume for the secret cutscene for some reason)

>>713857808
No, but this is.

>>713858646
Is that even a dance from the 2000's?
The game takes place in the 2000's, you know

>>713858782
It was ahead of its time.

>>713857808
Of course not

>>713855514
Do you have any videos of the over the shoulders mod?
I want to see how the town looks, the OG camera fucking sucks

>>713858998
I got some saves in town, I can make the webms in a few.

>>713858998
You fucking suck.

>>713859098
Why I suck? :(
>>713859067
Any Youtube video is fine too bro

>>713858998
i played with the ots mods, they're kino i recommend just trying them yourself, i've played the games a shitload of times but it feels like a completely different experience when you can look at anything you want
the sh2 one is more developed than the sh3 one though from what i remember, and the sh4 one actually makes the game a lot better i think because i genuinely hate a lot of the camera angles in that game they're half-brained
really wish we got one for sh1, the ng+ camera is cool but a proper ots that lets you look around freely at anything in that game would be tits

>>713850935 (OP)

Silent Hill is hell on Earth, you see what you bring there with you.

>>713859345
>when you can look at anything you want
You can already do that though

>>713859507
you really can't, the floating camera is always anchored, meaning many angles are entirely inaccessible while with the ots you can look at any asset up close as you wish, from any angle
i.e. look at the other side of the wall at the overlook in the intro of sh2, you can't, with ots you can

>>713859345
One thing I hated about the OG SH2 is how fucking huge the roads are compared with the small or non existing sidewalks so most the time I could only see are a wall of fog and huge empty roads which is a shame because the devs put a lot of effort modeling the buildings but I could barely see them

>>713859608
Many areas in the game let you use the focus camera and look anywhere. It's not completely fixed like the old RE games.

>>713859273
>>713858998

>>713850935 (OP)
I recently played through SH3 and I spent the whole game waiting for this scene. I didn't expect it to be right at the end.

>>713859273
Because I think turning a game with a dynamic camera into another generic over the shoulder is stupid.
>>713859731
Case in point this looks stupid as fuck.
I will not say any more on this since you troglodytes don't care anyway.

>>713853758
>Getting mauled by monsters doesn't slow him down
That doesn't really happen, just like how Leon can get bitten and not turn into a zombie in RE2, because story wise he never gets bitten.

>>713859683
uhh yea dude i've played them all a few dozen times, you objectively can't look at tons of things
like a bunch of buildings have ceilings that you can never look at, with ots you can
a bunch of areas keep the floating camera anchored far back meaning you can never look up close at many assets, with ots you can
idk why you even feel the need to debate this, it's a central design philosophy of the game

>>713859819
the original game let you have a camera just like that as a ng+ option to let you appreciate the art up close, these mods are basically just that option being restored, if you don't think that's soul you're cooked lad

>>713859845
You type like a faggot.

>>713850935 (OP)
He says he was fucking with her immediately after that it was a joke. Even if he's lying they're still most likely deranged cultists who want to baptize the earth through hellfire by unleashing their god on the world.

Honestly who gives a shit though it's all self defense in this context anyway.

>>713859926
I said nothing about "soul" or that other camera styles never appeared in a SH game before, I said it looked stupid.

>>713860013
i accept your pissing, whining concession

>>713850935 (OP)
He was conducting psychological warfare with the intent of unsettling Heather because he felt insecure and intimidated by her and decided to choose this as a way to get back at her for causing him to experience those feelings.

>>713860273
You know honestly Heather/Cheryl probably scares him. Even though he needs her help, I don't think he necessarily likes her.

>>713860271
There was never even an argument between us, you just chimped out when I stated a fact about the game by stating other facts about the game. Truly bizarre.

More OTS SH2 footage for whoever fag wants it.

>>713860431
embarrassing

>>713855325
>>713859731
>>713860551
Reminds me of this lol

If Silent Hill was so good why didnt they ever make a game after 3?

>>713860745
But they made the second best one right after 3

>>713860745
They did, and it sucked.

>>713859731
Cool! But I think the camera is a little too close
>>713860724
Now that's just silly

>>713860724
KEK.

>>713860362
She absolutely did and he is right to fear her given that she represents the success of the cult, has divine protection and can potentially cause the end of the world and he knows all those things better than she does.

>>713850935 (OP)
The developers way of saying
>even if other games are made in the series, this question will always undermine anything they do with OUR game and characters
It makes you question your perception of what's going on, does he see the monsters as random civilians? Does he see the monsters as interesting and something worth studying and therefore not really monsters at all and more like animals?
Is he just trying to fuck with you?

>>713851286
teen pussy, a resource greater than oil

>>713860991
He's a crazy cultist. He just sees them as wondrous instead of monstrous because that's what his religion is. He's not the only character in the franchise that does this.

WHEUREEEEEEWHEUREEEEEEWHEUREEEEEEWHEUREEEEEEWHEUREEEEEEWHEUREEEEEEWHEUREEEEEE

>>713861194
Yeah, authoritarian just doesn't bring anything at all. The performance is fine I guess but there's just 0 personality.

>>713861305
Why the fuck that thing was so LOUD?

>>713860724
holy kino

>>713861305
FUCK the pendulum, man

>>713861445
Everything in the god damn game is. I'm perpetually angry about that one section in the subways where it plays literal ear rape until you kill the dogs. God damn bullshit.

>>713861445
SH3 is the peak of sound design. You got whirring ear rape, misophonia triggering chewing sounds, and even the headphones door knocking trickery.

>>713861445
>>713861581
the point of the game is to stress you out with sensory overload. It's great.

>>713850935 (OP)
I love Silent Hill so much bros.
Won't buy f and 1 remake tho.

>>713861305
This nigga is not a monster according to Vincent the troll.

>>713861872
I'll buy f.

lmao

>>713861872
I’ve already decided not to buy any UE5 game again.

>>713858072
He backtracked because he saw how freaked out and unstable she was. Heather fucking murdered a bunch of cult members who tried to stop her and saw them as silent hill monsters, the same as with the executioner that killed her dad.

>>713861305
I don't know who I hate more between those flying faggots and fat cancer men.

So how does the Otherworld work?
I heard the monsters are real and that their forms are based off how fucked the person is in the head.
So would just a regular person with nothing wrong be attack by an invisible force or just something they perceive to be as some random criminal?

>>713862080
>middle art doesnt look like the actress
>right render looks like the actress without makeup

>>713862080

>>713862595
Probably nothings happens to them kinda like Laura from SH2, she's a little kid so the town is normal for her

>>713862502
Nah Vincent isn't that type of character, he was definitely playing mind games.

It's just me or this game looks like Siren for the PS2?

>>713861872
American suburbia setting for horror is so fucking kino.
Too bad generic japanese spooky village is the best they can do nowadays.

>>713862595
SH1 + SH3 lore: It is Alessa projecting shit. You know like a dream? You can like some insects but hate others, but in dreams you'll have some insects be gigantic because... reasons. Likes, dislikes, the imagery the cult told Alessa about, that's the "otherworld". The pteranodons from SH1? They're from The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle.
Really, that's it.
SH1 + SH3 is its own lore.
Ignore SH2 and it'll make sense.

>>713862770
lel

>>713862886
because it is, they called it silent hill for advertisement purposes.

>>713862835
This is hinted at earlier in this boss fight. "I guess you're not a person anyways!" Heather's perspective is distorted imo.

https://youtu.be/-iMNKjzVzlI?t=160

>>713862840
>that unidentified big mass throwing itself at the door in the shop when you walk close to it
I don't remember that

>>713863128
First clothing shop where Heather kills in the starting cutscene. When you come back and see that some clothing items have changed and go behind the checkout there's a loud as fuck banging happening when you walk inches from the employee door.

>>713862840
The final iteration was developed in nine months or something. Doesn't matter though because it's a good game. Though to be honest I think the "rushed" accusations are simply because you revisit some places.

>>713851203

>>713862916
You don't need to ignore SH2. The Otherworld is the same. It's just not experiencing Alessa's psychic demon pregnancy cramps.

>>713864735
The Otherworld in SH2 is pretty understated. The town was having an off-day or something.

>>713865028
It's less that the town was chilling and more that James was just built different. He's not evil or irredeemably fucked in all aspects of life, he just committed a grave mistake and had the strength to dig himself out of that hole (questionably aided by the possible spirit of his wife telling him to move on but hey if it works). The town is very much trying to kill him or trap him in a circle of suffering constantly, it's by sheer will that he escapes its clutches. Meanwhile Eddie remains a bitter piece of shit to the very end and Angela presumably kills herself or gets killed offscreen. And every time we meet them they're either submitting to their terrible desires as aided by the town (Eddie and his killings and pizzas and whatever the fuck, Angela and her quest to finish off her family and die) or dragged deeper into their graves through horrific visions (Angela being subjected to literal hell and killing her father again and god knows what else). James too is going through practically the same horrific shit and demonic temptations and he rejects it in the end.

>>713866529
You're speaking for the Leave ending though. The other two he gets fucked.

>>713860745
But anon, without 4 we wouldn't have the Eileen Shaving guy.

>>713866926
That looks like bread to you?

>>713867279
God I wish I was God.

>>713866663
Yes, a testament to the town being an evil piece of shit that requires a strong will to best.

>>713860821
Except SH4 was pretty shit. It had some cool concepts but it's painfully just obvious that halfway through development the devs just stopped giving two shits about it

>>713850935 (OP)
Probably nothing desu. He reacted to Heather calling him out on his bullshit. Vincent is also a sadist, a cowardly one, but a sadist none the less. We see that in the way he talked to Claudia at the motel. The words he is saying sound empathetic on paper, but the way he says them with mocking glee, you can tell he gets off on her suffering.

>>713860724
This reminds me of deadly premonition

>>713868828
I'm sorry but she's trapped in Dead by daylight suffering for all eternity, this is canon according to Konami

>>713868828
Why would that be a thing? She already successfully rid herself of god fetus through the power of her dad's love and her ability to temper her anger. Claudia took the fetus burden, and I doubt that she's powerful enough to "survive" god's birth like Alessa has. Not to mention that by that point, Alessa wanted to live. She had Cheryl's memories, her faith that her dad can save her. Claudia has nothing and no one.

How the fuck do you deal with these motherfuckers?

>>713851569
This artist perfectly captured the color palette of SH3.
That fucking cooked dog room man. That's a video game safe place for me. Especially since Heather talks to you if you keep investigating the bottles.

Handgun with suppressor

>>713870316
Start shooting them before they start crawling towards you. They're the biggest pain in the ass on hard difficulty.

>>713870316
Take the damage and just try to run through the room as fast as possible. Stopping to fight them will only get you fucked up. Not only are they bullet sponges but they can come back from being stunned multiple times even if you stomp.
The only way I can ever kill them quickly is if it's just one and you quick draw the light saber and swing hard until they stop moving. If there are two or more just run.

>>713870520

Not a smart move there Vincent.

>>713871903
Imagine all the freaky shit he'd get Heather into. Bet the fact that she has god in her womb would make him even harder.

The Silent Hill games are just a sneaky way for Akira Yamaoka to publish his music while letting his friends develop a game around it.

>>713855325
Hot take. I do not like James. Silent Hill 2 is great, but he's an idiot and a murderer.

>>713873815
I don't really have many thoughts on James himself. I just really like the narrative around him, if that makes sense.

>>713873815
I'd say that's not a hot take since you're not supposed to like him, but I know you mean you also just don't like his characterization in general and I kinda agree. He's too pathetic and should've displayed more asocial and violent tendencies. The way he's portrayed for the vast majority of the game that he is a moron or a liar (take your pick depending on your interpretation of his intentions) and every other characters sees through his bullshit almost immediately. I definitely would've preferred to play an actual scumbag villain than some weakling dude who is sorry for himself. Don't care if that makes me more shallow, it would have been more fun for a video game.
Also the town made him stupid

This isn't the time to be goofing off.

>>713873815

Any sensible person would tap out at the wallman subway escalator. Fortunately that's an early indicator of the level of quality you're in for. It's a shame too because SH4 has some of genuinely disturbing atmosphere, level design and lore.

>>713861305
If you dare to fight them and you just happen to make them fall and they somehow recover up. They will fly up to you at an incredible hihg speed and will 100% hit you.

What happened to Heather's voice actress? From what I read she did a few other things, got praggort and disappeared. If so, good for her.

Maybe, but atleast I'm not being a bitch about it and preface my opinions with warnings because people might get upset. Boo fucking hoo, cry more.

>>713865028
SH2 never gets quite as crazy as 1 and 3. The prison is as rough as it gets. Meanwhile SH3 has that absolutely bonkers room in the otherworld hospital that will explode your computer if you emulate.

>>713875805
You are very fluent in crynese.

>>713875836
That doesn’t even make sense. I assume your baiting but go ahead and elaborate if you want.

>>713863405
Oh yeah, that one always gets me.
I can feel the adrenaline rush just thinking about it.

Serious question, any of you play it back in 03 and actually were shocked realizing it was a sequel? Heather being Harry's daughter feels so known at this point that it's basically impossible to discuss the game without it coming up despite it being intended as a plot twist. I feel if you played SH1 you immediately understand what is happening even after just the mall but I find it interesting how people just ignore this.
>>713862916
SH2 is ironically the only game past SH1 that doesn't contradict SH1 lore by virtue of not really trying to connect itself to it. All that is confirmed is that SH2 happens after SH1, a few creepers from SH1 can be found in SH2. I love SH3 myself but as an SH1fag I'm always kind of sad how by SH3 they really started to reach with how the power of the town works. Stuff like Leonard makes literally zero sense lore wise, he's an amazing set piece and design though. It's the same issue any deeply lore and narrative driven series has, you can only have so much mythos before it becomes overly complicated lr have absolutely nothing left to interpretation.

>>713875573
Anon, there was a thread last week where a bunch of weebs got a meltdown after they discovered that 99% of actual IRL Japanese women have brown nipples.

>wahhh incoming hot takerino ;w; watch out for my spicy opinions don't get upset!!!1

>>713875946
>That doesn't even make sense
maybe if you're in denial. the story is written like a fanfic. it's not a bad game, but it's weaker than the other titles

>>713876025
It does retcon a bunch of the backstory, though. In SH1 it's made clear by Kaufman that all the supernatural shenanigans, especially the Otherworld, are completely new to the cult and hasn't happened before. It's also made clear that it's Alessa's power + the demon's influence + the Seal of Metatron that are conjuring the nightmare into reality.

Then SH2 comes along and claims that no, this place was always surrounded by some mysterious power.

This fight either takes 45 minutes or 3 minutes. I swear it gets 10x easier if you die once. Or maybe I just melee'd it, I don't remember. Either way, not a high point of the game. At least the arena looks cool.

I had never played SH2 or SH3 on Hard mode so I decided to try it last year

SH2 was going smooth until that double pyramid head boss at the end of the game where I was running from corner to corner in that room for literally 10 minutes with no success. Turns out SH2 and 3 on Hard mode are a bad idea not because the game overall is hard but because the final bosses are completely broken on that difficulty lol. It is a shame because SH1's hard mode is actually really good.

SH1 states that whatever Native American tribe existed on the land prior to settlers were in tune with the power there. White Claudia was more or less the medium they used to tap into SH's power, it being a powerful psychedelic that allows them a degree of influence over it. After being taken over the power became corrupted due to the events that transpired there, SH2 just expands on this detailing specific events like the plague and civil war battle that took place there. The cult exists because certain people, "those with darkness in their heart" as SH2 says, have been touched by the power of the town directly. It's the town's power that willed the Incubus into existence in the first place, the cult truly believed some powerful force was calling to them and the town brought this to existence.

You should look up how many difficulties SH3 has. Farthest I got was Extreme 3, it doesn't seem to change past a certain point though, eventually everything is just gonna one shot you right?

>White Claudia was more or less the medium they used to tap into SH's power, it being a powerful psychedelic that allows them a degree of influence over it.

No, it was a drug that founded the cult's operations.

You're literally making stuff up. The plot of SH1 is very straightforward and ripped off of "Rosemary's Child" - a Satanic cult that has embedded itself into the local community under the guise of a "queer religion" is trying to use a special young girl to give birth to their demon "god." The writer and director of SH1 outright said in interviews they're Satanists.

>>713876527

Kinda sounds like some influence from Pet Sematery.

>>713877587
Man 3 really blows the fuck out of 2 when it comes to art direction and audio design.

Did you know that James gets a "baseball bat swing" for the steel pipe on hard mode? It actually trivializes enemies and makes it easier in many places.

>>713860973
It's way worse for webms, but the new noise filter looks nice.

What the actual fuck happened in that room. Someone in a wheelchair either blasted or got blasted then one or both of them fell down the elevator shaft.

>>713877851
They had more time to refine things. Sh2's time and budget was mostly them creating the new engine, creating the giant map, and they had to skimp on some things and some things weren't as polished. They had to reduce the enemy variety (big mistake), and the character models looked a little unpolished.

Speaking of, there's a new Maria character model mod that makes her not look like a frog woman. She's almost 1:1 for Cameron Diaz now. (back when game devs would just steal an actor's likeness without a care in the world).

A Taiwanese scanner went through and scanned most of the big JP guidebooks for the game, so we get clearer explanation of all the hidden mechanics that most gamefaqs don't mention or care about.

Anyways, it's x+o continually with pipe drawn. Hard mode was where they threw mechanics they made but weren't sure about, but didn't want to discard. It has some bullshit but it feels more like the balanced approach. Then it had hit-spongue bosses who take too many hits to kill.

Almost everything about the games is plagiarised from Western media (yes, I know, it's a shocker for a Japanese developer to have done that).

Silent Hill 2 is just a beat-for-beat rip-off of "Lost Highway," to the point that even back in the day people on forums wondered why haven't Konami been sued, it's so blatant.

>it's been a very long time but I think they were pressure sensitive on the ps2

That's a myth, and one I thought for a long time. It's about length of how long you press it. Tap it and get a light attack, hold it for a strong attack. It's tricky, but you can get it accurately for like 90% of attacks. I wish they'd add a distinct light vs. hard attack buttons in a fan mod.

The pipe swing is a NEW attack type that is both hilarious and brutal but requires a new input of the x button. Since it's hidden away in hard mode I think most don't notice it.

>>713878601
Dear Saar, thanks to the recent hack we know now that certain regions, like India, have their captchas specifically set-up to have a pre-set failure rate, in order to avoid too much spam by dirty, stinky pajeets like yourself.

And the game's plot makes more sense when you see the film, since it has 1:1 copies of James, Mary, Maria, and of course Pyramdi Head. PH in the movie talks so his role is less cryptic. The other big influence is Crime and Punishment, so it's a fusion of those two stories.

>>713877815
>>713877041
It was less popular so flew under the radar but the book and film Phantasms by Dean Koontz (more the book than the film) were a big influence. The moth and a few other things come directly from it, but the very idea of a suddenly abandoned rural town are taken from that.

The film adaption is some hollywood tripe with big stars which doesn't fit the tone that the film should be going for. It's all pretty people.

now compare the neighbour enemy to the slurper from SH3

The kick being an attack that does damage rather than an insta-kill is a nice touch for SH3.

Going back and playing through 1-3 again made me realize modern day horror games are missing one thing I absolutely adore- the "examine" button being usable on random things in the environment. Going around and just clicking on stuff so you could see Harry/James/Heather's thoughts on them (or the characters from just about any RE/other horror game from back then) made for a great feature. The extra descriptions could make scenarios creepier, or they'd even give you insight into the character (this is especially true of Heather). Was really disappointed when the SH2 remake didn't have anything along these lines. Still enjoyed it for what it was, but lacking a feature like that ended up being a lot more upsetting than I thought it'd be.

SH3 was my first silent hill game and I always thought the twist was that they were humans who only looked like monsters in her head

I like Sh3, and it's remarkable how good the game is for the time constraints, but you can literally see the game's budget slip away as the game progresses. Your first boss is a custom built well made boss with a lot of animations and attack forms, and one of the final bosses is just retextured Heather (not even Alessa!). Then you spent next to no time in the overworld map, and you spend a lot of time teleporting around the map.

I very obviously think the game should have been set in nothern side of SH, where you explore the resort area and then after the Lakeside amusement park you can run past the Lakeview hotel (burned down), and run to the Church's acutal church for the final confrontation.

Harry is fairly big and has the "I need to protect my daughter" buff on his side.

Assuming it is prime mid-1980s Harry, and Heather can't access weird Alessa powers but instead fights like a normal player-controlled Heather, then my money is on Harry as the last one standing

It looks a little glitched here but that shadow effect was so cool.

I'm OK with not spending much time in the streets of SH. We did that in the first two games and it's literally the same area from 2.

SH3 is the most FUN game in the series for me, therefore it's the most replayable to me. I care about gameplay when it comes to replayability. I do not give a single shit about multiple endings, and unlockables are merely a bonus. This makes 2 the worst to replay for me because it's so boring and easy as a game. 1 at least has dangerous enemies and scare factor. But 3 has that + more limited resources so it wins by default as the best survival horror game in the series.

It's implied they're cult members, and that this is what she means by her paradise.

SH2's 2 million sales was seen as a disapointment after Sh1's 5 million sales so they put the series on the back burner with lower and lower budgets. 3-4 were made at the same time, with 3 made by the Sh2 team, and 4 by new people (which is why it's so weird). We should be thankful that they were as talented as they are to make the game as coherent and good as it is, but man it's a mess and kind of a SH2 expansion pack.

If you look at the Sh1 resort area and compare it to the kind of locations you visit in SH3, I think it's obvious that you were supposed to be there and they only sent you to the south to re-use the Sh2 assets.

>>713881928
The SH fans are the ones who told the story of the Sh series, and to them each game was amazing blockbusters, and for some reason evil konami pulled the plug on the series. Sh2 more or less killed the momentum for the series, and I'd argue that it has a horrible opening that doesn't draw in most people, and most people tuned out on SH3 as well.

Notice that Sato doesn't say how much Sh2 sold? I think it was like half of 1. That's why Konami cut the budget for 3-4 by making them at the same time.
https://web.archive.org/web/20171225004925/http://satoworks.com/Takayoshi_Sato_resume.html

On replays I love Sh2's opening, and it's moody and it's very cinematic and has great atmosphere. It is NOT goign to draw in most people though. The game feels kinda directionless until you get to Rosewater Park and meet Maria.

What the fuck was her problem?
I must assume she has no issues so she's just strolling through Silent Hill seeing nothing out of the ordinary except fat fucks eating pizza and James stumbling around like a jackass.

Monsters are innocent for cult autists

>>713882206
Nah SH2's opening is actually terrible. You can build atmosphere without making you walk for 20 minutes. The second you enter the apartment building second floor the atmosphere immediately kicks in, so I know I'm right. 1 and 3 both had way better openings that set the horror tone immediately.

I could give endless examples. Black Swan is a ripoff of Perfect Blue. The Matrix rips off tons of shit from GitS. Man of Steel director said he based the fights on DBZ and Tetsuwan Birdy. And those are just unofficial examples. There are many live action adaptations of anime. We copied all the great Japanese horror movies like The Ring, Dark Water, The Grudge.

People concentrate on lore too much, think of Silent Hill as some weird lovercraftiam space, theres no real lore and its just weird because its weird. In SH2 James was experiencing his version, in SH1/3 what the cult was doing probably wasn't doing anything that worked, it was just the town transforming things.

>>713882206
this is speculation, there's not enough info. wikipedia says it sold a million in the first month of its release.

It's based on a pre-existing story, not "Perfect Blue."

>>713882786
>now you see Westerners wearing shirts with random Japanese on them

It's called "cyberpunk," has been around since the 80s, and it isn't a rip-off of anime or other such nonsense, but a relic of a time Japan was viewed as the up-and-coming economic powerhouse, basically how China is viewed today.

>>713882508
>>713882384
I can apprecaite what they're doing, which is almost unprecedented: a movie game. An actual movie game where you're in a film and you can walk around and interact with things. It's why the game has no HUD or anything.

Sh1's opening worked better:
>linear nightmare segment introduces enemies and nightmare world segments
>set in cafe for first character expo dump
>you literally cannot leave until you have all your tools (radio, gun, knife)
>Time: 5-10 minutes

Sh2 intro:
>long opening and letter reading
>meet some weirdo
>long walk into town
>run around a big town with unclear goals
>stumble into an apartment complex (most aren't sure why your'e even here)
>handgun and flashlight are in separate rooms, you must enter them in the right order (can't pick up handgun until you get the flashlight)
>now with all your tools you can START playing
>time: 15-45 minutes

A player can be caught in a trap of spending way too much time running around the apartments because you checked the wrong rooms or missed the one room to start having the weapons and flashlight you need, while 1 just gave you the basic tools in the starting zone. Sh2 should have followed suit.

On your first playthrough it's VERY easy to get lost in either the town segment or the apartments (there is always something you're gonna miss) and even on subsequent playthroughs you might miss a single coin or something.

It would be that room that tempts Heather to smoke but x1000 cigs, joints, bongs, coke lines ready to snort and endless bottles of liquor. Also monsters with dark skin and big noses.

The most interesting (not as in 'good') Silent Hill has ever been, and they immediately backpedals.
>"lol just kidding!"

>>713882917
depends on whose otherworld I'd be in, since silent hill isn't a therapist town

>>713882703
It's pretty neat departure from the franchises formula, until it becomes an escort mission. After that, it's a slog. It still has some cool parts, like finding the killers body. That area was terrifying and made the last bits of the apartment even more unnerving.

>>713883029
Too bad SH2 has too many flaws as a game:
>laughably easy enemies, you have to actively try to get hit most of the time,
>showered in bullets and health items,
>bosses are a joke,

I actually wonder whether anyone got the "In Water" ending without looking up a guide on how to do it. Just looking at the items isn't enough, and it's really tough to be hit and be on low health.

>>713883179
>I actually wonder whether anyone got the "In Water" ending without looking up a guide on how to do it. Just looking at the items isn't enough, and it's really tough to be hit and be on low health.

lol I did because I min-max and went around most of the game in low health rather than "waste" health items which I stock piled.

>>713883179
My first playthrough was In Water. From what I remember, I inspected the items like the knives and the wall writings telling James to suicide. I think what sealed the deal though was the fact that I never healed to green because I thought the state before that (it's like gray or whatever) meant full health.

>>713883179
>laughably easy enemies
well yeah, mary was laughably easy to kill too, and james ia a bit of an effete wimp, what did you expect, hulking brutes?

>>713883275
It's a mistep, and I wonder if they were trying to parlay some Resident Evil sales with more humanoid "zombie" characters. But the standard prisoners are quite weak and slow, and only the nurses are aggressive. The Sh1 enemies are more varied and more aggressive and I think the stanard kids have done more health damage to me in any SH game by grabbing onto me and stabbing.

>>713883179
I always get Leave when I play the original but for the remake I got In Water because I walked through the scarlet egg door. I was really annoyed because I love the Leave ending and the game's story doesn't feel complete to me if I don't get Leave.

>>713883363
SH1 enemies actually try to kill you. The flying niggas will track your ass. Those hopping dude will hop on ya. The kids will dogpile you. It's not super hard but they at least tried. I appreciate 3 going back to having threatening enemies. 2 doesn't make the cut.

>>713883460
And to think, SH1 could've had even more enemies

>>713882854

>>713883179
Do the enemies become harder on hard mode? I've only ever played normal and yeah they're stupid easy.

What if, now stay with me here, what if, instead of trying to kill the bobble head nurse, I instead had sex with her?

>>713882420
>11.5 million
Presuming lowballing, SH1 and SH2R account for 2 million each.
Silent Hill 2 'likely', sold 1 million.
Silent Hill 3, 4, Origins, Homecoming, SM, Downpour, HDC, and BoM combined sold around 6.5 million copies.
Honestly pretty sad.

>>713884045
What if you were more than a meme spouting automaton?

>>713879207
But does the doge control the ayys, or do the ayys control the doge?

>>713883535
Never seen these and can't find the source.

>>713883767
Sato says 2 million for Sh1, and the only hard Konami data is 11.5 for the ENTIRE series, with SH2 remake selling a paltry 2 million. So the entire series without remake sold 9.5 million. That's 1, 2, 3, 4, Homecoming, downpour, etc. All of them.

>>713854585
Does time pass for more than an hour at any point in the game when ur not playing? It's not resident evil. The events happen as you control them. James doesn't go to sleep and wake up days later or some undetermined amount of time after being held hostage. Maria is the one who sleeps while u go exploring. For James this was a full day of hell. Nothing more.

Sh2 is clearly a full day in hell. Probably about 16 waking hours. James never takes a rest. Sh1 is about a day as well I think. Sh3 is over several days and Heather has some time off.

Fucking wild that they were just chilling in the hotel when there's wild monster animals roaming about outside.

Sh1 feels more like a zoo coming at you and probably more literal. As in, there's actual parasites roaming about, and attach themselves to any victims. It's possible that the entire Hospital staff got transported to the hellscape alongside Harry, Kaufman, Cybil, and the crazy witch, and the others. Harry is able to save Cybil because her infection is new.

As the other anon said, it does tie in with how the cult uses white Claudia which is a deliriant. And deliriants are known to cause experiences of the more sinister type, essentially you are taking a trip straight to the Otherworld in Silent Hill but in a more disorienting and feverish fashion, to the point where Jacob’s Ladder used them as a plot point. They also have a link with magical practices

I think the Pendulum is a strange creature even compared to the rest of the Silent Hill enemies, due to how its somehow able to fly. None of the other enemies do anything as physically impossible as this.

>>713888124
sh3 is rushed, and they had different artists and likely no enough time. yes, most of the other Sh enemies have a phsyicality to them, and are clearly able to at least functionally appear to mvoe around like real world animals or people. That enemy is just pure magic and i hate it for that reason.

>>713888275
I think it would have been cool if the Pendulum was only able to walk in the "normal" world, but was able to fly in the Otherworld due to reality becoming more distorted, like how some of the SH1 enemies change in the Otherworld.

>>713886397
It was alright.

>Rosemary's Child

>>713879090
Funny how SH4 started to do these a little bit for the first act or so, with Henry noticing subtle changes in his apartment upon returning from the Otherworld, then they just gave up and started reusing the same text every time. It's a nice metaphor for what a lazy waste of time SH4 is in general.

You know, in Silent Hill 1 Lisa turns into a ghost similar to the ones in SH4 when she drags Kaufmann to hell
I wonder if Bloober will turn her into a stalker type enemy in Nowhere
Probably not, but I wouldn't be completely opposed to it if they did

>>713893685
Valtiel makes the most sense as remake's stalker enemy.

>>713870316
Try destroying it's head or torso as quickly as possible

>>713893443
I think by "them" she meant the nurse monsters, the Lisa Harry meets is just an Otherworld apparition.

Team Silent benefited immensely from being composed of weirdoes who are into all sorts of semi-obscure, off the wall stuff. Western devs being normies or consoomer reddit nerds really hurt the series.

You took the words right of my mouth, it’s a point that I’ve been trying to make for a long time, and also why I feel a lot of classic Japanese games have that special feeling that a lot of western games don’t. Not to say that there aren’t western devs who are interesting or are into interesting things, and when they are it really shows into their games, but I feel that it’s more stronger in Japanese games from a specific era

>>713896576
out of 10

>>713896649
Yeah, I personally don't see it was a west vs east thing. Just who the people involved are as individuals. And so far, westerners happened to be really basic.

its weird how fast the remaster was forgotten lol. good riddance.

You can also find archives of old websites back when they were promoting the first movie and Konami said it was an adaptation of the series that's sold 5.3 million copies. That would cover the first 4 games, which is pretty grim with 2+ million for SH1 and the remainder split among 2-4.

Mount the ISOs of 2 & 3, and then run their installers like always.
DON'T use W10's own virtual disc app! It will not work.
Don't install under C:\Program Files\ ! This will cause issues.

For SH2, follow the instructions on the Enhanced Edition homepage to the T, and you should be fine.
The "Enhanced .EXE" is also the no-CD crack.

For SH3 & 4, check the Guide or PC Gaming Wiki.
The SH1 is a PS1 rip that you gotta emulate.
I recommend the DuckStation, which is modern and easy to use, but most emulators work OK as well.

>Protips
-Play in the release order.
-Start with Normal difficulty! Don't do hard on 1st run (espec. SH2).
-Replaying them all is recommended; tons of replay value.
-Turn down the ingame Brightness setting, for better gamma & colors!
-Don't try to kill everything that moves, especially outdoors. Leg it, or sneak!
-Turning OFF the flashlight can really help w/ stealth!

>>713905682
It needs an update. GOG's version of SH4 is the current best way to play it (and easy to pirate). No patching bullshit needed. It used to be missing some content but they patched it recently and added a ton of new fixes and shit that you obviously won't find in the older patches.

This is still one my favorite songs

I mean you are joking but Konami was actually making a similar game back when they were releasing Downpour, Revelation movie, and HD Collection back in 2012. I'm not joking. What a lot of people don't know is that back in 2012 Konami brought back a lot of Team Silent members to make a direct sequel game to SH3 with an adult Heather taking care of a monster baby and straggling with being a mother, which was the original idea for SH3 before Konami told them to change it and make a direct sequel to SH1 instead. The game was canceled because Downpour, Revelation movie, and HD collection all underperformed financially and so they decided to give the series into the hands of Kojima who wanted to make a Silent Hills reboot (which was also canceled because Konami didn't like how Kojima wasted all the money on Phantom Pain. Lol)

Here are 3 official concept arts. Masahiro Ito said that those concept arts depict an opening of the game which was going to feature a small baby in an abandoned location. The opening scene was also going to feature Pyramid Head from SH2 and Valtiel from SH3 having an epic duel where Valtiel was going to brutally decapitate Pyramid Head and kill him for good to symbolize Ito's heatred towards all the western devs who used his character in their games despite him being exclusive to James in SH2 (kek)

It address the biggest issues I had with SH2 in that the enemies are actually a threat thereby giving the weapons (outside of boss fights) a purpose.

You didn’t even need to hide behind doors, you could easily just outmaneuver them which made it easy to melee stun them.

Huh, I was gonna shit on you for playing SH2 with a zoomer mod, but this actually looks neat. I might have played the remake if it had this atmosphere.
Probably not right to have ots camera as your first experience with SH2, but I'll check it out when I replay it in a year or so, seems like a neat new experience.

>>713860724
This is way better. It's upfront that it's a video game and you're here to have fun with some occasional spooks rather than the pretentious "art" of the original.
