At 19:03 he says "it was a long three years", this means that Mary did not die 3 years ago, like James says at the beginning of the game. Mary just died very recently, but when James first learned that she was terminally ill 3 years prior, he already felt like his wife was dead. That makes sense also in the ending where Mary dead body is the car: she's not been rotting there for 3 years, she was killed by James maybe that very day. The fact that James felt like he was already speaking to a dead person for 3 years is omega sad

[@areaux1086]

Mary "died" 3 years ago to James because that's when she started getting sick and James started resenting her for it. You're right in that she died recently. Her body is in the backseat of the car and James just snapped into denial at the start of the game looking into the mirror in the restroom.

[@shot040]

also makes sense because how the hell are you going to kill your wife and live free for 3 years. i started wondering that towards the end of the game. thought he may have killed her very recently and came to silent hill partially to escape police.

[@starry.1081]

always thought that he initially came to silent hill to dispose mary's body because it was a good candidate to do so

[@limitgoesoff]

With the remake new ending. The Still ending has just as much as a legitimate canon ending as 'in water' does now after watching this.

[@qball7743]

That also makes sense for the dialogue between James and Laura when he’s questioning her about seeing Mary last year in the hospital

[@AegisAuras]

Someone brought up a good point: In the stillness ending you can hear the car door open after the ignition is activated. This doesn’t happen in the “in the water” ending. It suggests James got out of the car and gave Mary a watery burial. I think this makes sense given that Mary forgave him in this ending and that he asked her if she’d wait for him. If he was going to unalive right there, she wouldn’t need to wait. “Stillness” may be a reference to his emotional state afterwards: not fearful, hateful, angry, in denial, or happy, just stillness. Stillness as he waits for the time they can be together again in the afterlife.

[@omellemmor4732]

James decides to live on with his life, despite such emotional setbacks

[@heathenly_aesthetic7233]

That's what I was thinking, when I heard the car door. But I'll tell you what... I started *bawling* right along with him. Not to get depressing, but after my recent loss, I leaned into this game for support. I couldn't handle seeing him shake and cry like that 😅

[@kirkfogg8366]

beautifully put.

[@yunussadikhov6772]

Yes, and they show the part ignition start in the dark which one is stillness. Nevertheless, in water part we see the ignition is started visually and after that is nothings else. He just drives into lake and crashing. The things is that i am really dubious is that we hear explosion when he drives into lake which means that it is really hard to get alive from there. It would be better if they remove explosion part so we can expect him to be alive.

[@gambit5667]

Isnt it just him getting out wit hthe letter and going into sh2 again?

[@SeanKlapper]

The leave ending was always the most satisfying to me and made the most sense. After making peace with Mary's passing and reading her letter, he didn't despair and give up hope like Angela, for a in water ending, and he didn't give in to his delusions like Eddie and fall in love with a fantasy and idealized version of Mary in the Maria ending. He made peace with himself and chose to move on and start a new life with Laura who represents a adopted daughter of Mary and James. Its the Canon ending in my heart lol.

[@trentonhuggins465]

I think James was already dead when he got to town. Laura too (was in the hospital with Mary for a long time, probably also had something terminal). And they're both able to move on, out of the purgatory like state. Just my thoughts.

[@a_zero1punk496]

So I got the bad ending 😭😭😭

[@ivanmedina6071]

​@trentonhuggins465 yeah, james committed sui@$de, that's why you find his body on the couch with his brains blown out, I think angela and Eddie along with James are murderers that took the easy way out by sui#$de, and are facing judgment. And the town of silent hill is the only connection these three had in common in real life, like it was james honeymoon location, a very important moment in his life, but him being in his own hell, is seeing the town as a hellish nightmare

@@trentonhuggins465 Yeah I think this makes the most sense.

[@Hammer56Time]

I've seen so many absolutely insane takes on this story that I feel like people are playing an entirely different game with completely different characters, and the sheer lack of ability to understand nuance and morally grey scenarios that I feel the need to throw my thoughts out into the void just to say it because its driving me nuts at how reductively people are discussing one of my favorite stories of all time. It feels like the leave ending is what the town itself is pushing James toward, the town isn't trying to outright punish James to me but more so trying to make him understand that he did a horrible thing for very complex reasons. Like his entire conversation with "Mary" where he says he did it because he hated her but then the towns apparition of Mary points out to him if that were really true he wouldn't be so torn up about it and in reality would've just left her rather than stick by her all those years. Part of him did hate and resent her, but put yourself in his shoes where you have to watch day after day the person you love most whither away in absolute agony as their body falls apart, having to hear them cry in pain as they look to you with tears in their eyes begging you for help and to make it stop while all you can do is put on a brave face, hold them and tell them its going to be okay when you know for a fact that's not true. This continues for years as your entire life revolves around trying to be there for them and as the illness progresses they start lashing out at everyone and everything including you, emotionally and verbally abusing all the while you have to sit there and take it because you know they're only acting like this because of their horrific fate and you can't really blame them regardless of how much it hurts. That's when the bad thoughts start, the bubbling resentment from the abuse and having to halt your entire life for this person, the lingering looks at potential lovers as you yearn for the physical touch and affection they can no longer give you; but these thoughts make you feel like an absolute fucking monster, how can you possibly even think like this when the person you love is slowly dying in absolute misery? You hate yourself, the guilt from even pondering those thoughts drives you further and further into self loathing that you cannot even express as how can you even think of self pity when they're in such a sorry state, how dare you feel bad for yourself and not them? So you turn to drinking to try to cope with the whirlwind of self loathing, guilt, and pain of the entire situation but it never helps only makes it worse as you begin to lose sleep, contemplate killing yourself, them, or both of you just to make this nightmare end. Part of James did hate and resent Mary as unfair as he knows that is, but he also loved her more than anything in the world and after YEARS of enduring this absolute hell consumed by hate, self loathing, grief, love, and anguish James made the selfish, straight up evil decision to kill Mary. He did it both to end their mutual suffering in an effort to selfishly take back his own life and because he couldn't bear to watch anymore as the person he loved suffered until she slowly withered away and died. James immediately completely snapped mentally under the weight of what he just did as regardless of how many times she pleaded for death she also wanted to live out her last days at home and die with the person she loved, that wasn't his choice to make and that realization broke him completely. Which is when he put Mary's body in the back of his car and drove to the town they both loved so much seemingly to kill himself both to atone for what he did and run from the guilt he couldn't bear. The leave ending shows that James took from the town what it was trying to show him that while what he did was horrific, he can't chalk it up to him being a monster who now needs to die for his sins as it was never that binary. James did a horrible thing for a multitude of nuanced reasons and suicide would simply be him running from it. James needs to live with what he has done and find some way to move on with his life the way Mary wanted then maybe at some point find some measure of happiness because then everything he and Mary went through wasn't for nothing. People somehow finding a way to reduce James and Mary's story down to James is an evil prick who wanted to murder his wife to go bang hot nurses or James is my lil pookie who loved his wife and did nothing wrong is fucking maddening and does such a disservice to what I believe to be one of the finest not just horror stories but stories in general I have ever seen in any medium.

[@GRmasterpiece]

Thanks for explaining this. I never played the OG Silent Hill 2 but already knew a lot of the lore before going into the remake. Really enjoyed the remake (got the In Water ending) and I can see how games like Signalis and Cry of Fear were heavily inspired by SH2. Your explanation of the story and what's implied is really helpful and I appreciate it.

[@Hammer56Time]

@@GRmasterpiece I’m glad you found some use for it, I’ve just seen so many takes online that drive me insane since the remake boost in popularity that I had to just write out my thoughts regarding the James slander. There’s so much more to discuss regarding the games themes, story, characters, design, etc but I’ve seen so many people trying to make James a black and white, good or evil character when to me the part that makes it so good is that it’s impossible to pin down in such a binary manner and the moral ambiguity is what makes it so compelling.

I’ve never thought about any of these endings as “good or bad”. Silent Hill 2’s themes are too complex to just put into one category or the other. I don’t think we’re asked to judge James but more to view things as they play out and see it as he sees it (the world, the monsters, the fog). I’ve always found it weird that people focus on calling James a bad guy for what he did, it’s not about morality, it’s about a broken man’s psyche as he journeys into his own hell.

[@Brieg_Skald]

I mean, Christopher Gans is a good director and Silent Hill (first one) was a good movie... it just feels like a Summer salad where too many ingredients are mixed-up. If you watched Silent Hill and making-of multiple times like me, you could see Gans has a deep love of the franchise and tried his best. SH was quite deeper than people think. So... since the second movie was a mess, I just expect he'll actually focus on SH2 and James story for this movie and not just another guy that goes back in the town from the movie with yet another weird cocktails of things from the licence and fan-services.

[@george9698]

Any guess what James saw or noticed when he picked up the camera again ? 32:00

[@dont.hug.me.]

My guess is that James sees himself in the view finder of the camera and notices that his “present self” is now in the video/time before Mary’s sickness. Because I’m sure James didn’t look exactly like he does now as he did back then on that video. But, I don’t think he’s meant to literally be there in the video with Mary because he took white claudia(a hallucinogen) before playing the tape. If you notice, the audio on James speaking is much clearer compared to Mary, almost like James is responding out loud to the screen while watching. So I think it’s actually James hallucinating that he’s there with Mary, but in reality dies from the white claudia, hence why he’s no longer there when the camera turns off. And because that tape is the last thing he’s seeing and thinking of before dying, technically it’s like he’s there with her in that time for eternity. Which for James would be… Bliss. That being said, I don’t know all the lore behind white claudia, I just have the base knowledge that it’s a hallucinogen, and I don’t know if it has the magical ability to actually put James in a video tape/different time. But considering this game deals with the idea of time loops, I wouldn’t put it past it lol

[@Sunnyside45335]

Leave ending always makes the most sense to me. ESP since after fighting the two pyramid heads, they both killed themselves, therefore showing that James doesn’t have guilt anymore.

In 'still' ending its implied that James doesn't kill himself.

[@Stargazing_night_sky]

@@viclost1236 you can still hear him crash into the lake though

[@lkay4698]

In the bliss ending, he basically enters the video tape. Thats all.

[@NoName-x5o]

​@@Stargazing_night_sky​ The stillness ending audio implies James opens the car door -- sending the car into the lake by itself.

[@symbiotegod2069]

The Maria ending could very well be canon, he moved on from Mary but not the traditional way. He has a fresh start with Mary and he knows what to look for if she gets sick. It may be called the cycle but the cycle can be broken if he gets the cure in time.

[@fleurdemelancolie]

THE BLISS ENDING??!??!?! 😭😭😭😭😭

[@axethegreat]

Dog ending was the best

[@androognoix1685]

James hated Mary but not anymore and he hates that he hated her before that’s why he’s a visual mess

[@mouldytoady]

I came here straight from the first playthrough with maria ending. It came so out of left field. I just like taking my time and exploring everything :( I sure hope she gets that cough looked at.

[@rip2mylife671]

How are we supposed to know which endings we’re going get?

[@wolfcl0ck]

You aren't. The ending you get is dependent on your general actions and choices throughout the game, not any set course. If you show that you care about yourself and the people around you, you can leave. If you're infatuated with Maria and give into your emotions, you take Maria with you. If you show that you truly don't care about whether you live or die, you end up in the lake. Welcome to Silent Hill 2.

[@royery]

I just finished the game for the first time and got the Maria ending. Not that pleased with it... Is there a way for me to get another ending without replaying the entire game again? The saves I can go back to are all in the hotel, can't go any further back.

[@KyIieB]

Ig you can try to take some damage and stare at Angela's knife 10000x and Mary's letter. Also take your personal belongings during that elevator mode. But maybe that won't be enough. Or if you're lucky and take the personal item with you, the Maria ending won't trigger cause you usually need to leave Marys pic in the locker.

[@royery]

@@KyIieB I went back to the save right before the two pyramid heads and got the Leave ending just by opening the door with the rusted egg. Previously I opened the door with the scarlet egg and got the Maria ending. It's weird that one simple choice like that can impact the ending you get in the game.

[@mrksimka1159]

@@royeryit’s not just one choice. This game from what I heard starts prioritising endings you didn’t got before on replay and loading saves counts.

[@calypsomvne]

I got 6/8(dont want achieve ufo/dog endings) endings in that game and I love them all, they looks great, characters facial expression, how they talk, how they look on each other, but mostly likely ending for me is “stillness” ending. This is an ever more sadder ending than “in water”. Maria ending good too. It shows Mary's disappointment and that she doesn't forgive James for what he did.

[@vasileva1405]

i dont get the rebirth one can someone explain?

[@vlad_churukanov]

whats the difference between "in water" and "still"

[@Xtafa]

"Still" He's hallucinating that she's there and talking to him through the end. "In water" she doesn't talk, she's just a dead body in his back seat"

[@dragonkamran]

In stillness he doesn't read the letter.

[@Tyrok-2000]

In Still it's implied that James doesn't kill himself. If you listen very carefully there's a sound effect for the car door opening. So it's like James jammed the gas pedal down and sent the car into the lake. I had to listen a couple times to pick up on it, it's hard to discern at first.

[@Brieg_Skald]

@@Tyrok-2000 It could have happened indeed and that's interesting... that endorses the timeloop theory. But yeah, the difference mostly lies in the fact James imagine a dialogue before going away.

[@thecheeseblock9880]

white claudia is a hallucinogen from the first game, and james uses it to from what i can assume overdose into a happy delusion

[@Brieg_Skald]

That's the actual content of the tape James made before leaving Silent Hill with Maria, before she got sick and... you know the rest. What you actually see in the game is a deformation from Silent Hill the town does to make James face reality and accept the truth.

Why is the dog one in a different language?

[@OffTheRocker]

In the original, the dog ending was never vocally translated for some reason so even in the NTSC versions it was in Japanese, as Silent Hill 2 is a Japanese developed game. For this remake Bloober team kept the same concept alive by having James speak Polish as Bloober is a Polish studio.

How do you get so many different endings when there's not really any choices in the game? I think the funny endings take away from the game. Not that Easter eggs are bad its just idk I like my horror games to be horror. If I had gotten a funny ending I would have been disappointed.
