First Ever SILENT HILL 2 Playthrough [REMAKE] Part 1

[@milannesic5718]

Man, streamers like you are very rare. Paying attention to the cutscenes, paying attention to the atmosphere. Finding a good balance with the chat and being immersed in a game. You deserve more followers. Although, I am not sure how would you balance it if you had great amount of chatters there..Majority of streamers constantly look at chat and constantly talk, many even during the cutscenes. The atmosphere and the story gets completely lost. Some people experience the game for the first time with them. And streamers ruin that experience

[@MattKittredge2112]

Agreed. I’ve had to stop watching a handful of streamers playing through this game because they would talk throughout every damn cutscene (often resulting in them missing important plot points in the dialogue), they’d stop playing every 30 seconds to read the live chat, try too hard to either act not scared or overly scared…

[@AshleyBabyMalone]

I rarely watch streamers and often will click off a video for reasons you mentioned, talking to chat in cutscenes and seemingly being more interested in the chat than the game. Julia is one I know I can click into and know I’d enjoy!

[@hoseokismyhope3351]

I also feel streamers often showcase a lack of sympathy/empathy for the characters in favor of corny jokes, looking cool or agreeing with bandwagon hate (happened with Until Dawn a lot lol) and I feel like that’s such a waste when it comes to story-driven games… it comes off as immature and disgenuine… I really like her way of playing here :)

[@juliatvgames]

hey I really appreciate it, thank you! I have definitely gotten better at balancing chat/game over the years and was not as good about it in some older playthroughs, but I've really put a lot of effort into immersing myself in the games I play now :) I know it can be annoying to watch someone talking to chat too much but I really love both streaming and posting my playthroughs, so I'm glad to know people feel like it's a good balance!

[@mitchrogers4217]

100 % agree

[@ramrm7162]

She's actually streaming with chat and has total focus on the game ? i really really love that and it is rare like some people mentioned. i really wish and hope you grow more successful people need to hear about you!

[@IMAX-my6oo]

Luke Roberts deserves a award.

[@DavidLucian]

The reason why Silent Hill 2 it became a classic is because eventually people began to see how unique, eerie, melancholic and authentic the game's atmosphere it really is, and took the time to enjoy its deeply thoughtful narrative and symbolism. To this day it’s by far one of, if not the most mature examination of grief, sexual trauma, suicide, and morality all combined. It’s an intelligent game that does not hold anyone’s hand and comes at the player with utmost confidence in itself. It’s fantastic stuff. The rest of the original 4 are great in their own right and have their own well written stories, but they don’t hold the same emotional weight to them. I think SH2’s maturity by comparison is something that a lot of people are drawn to. ☯️

First time on this channel because I wanted to see someone reacting to the game after completing it. I really appreciate streamers like you that pay attention to every aspect of the game, like music, graphics, acting, atmosphere and all those little details that can be interpreted differently by every individual. Much more fun to watch than playthroughs from streamers like, let's say, Xqc

[@JSandwich13]

I love streamers that pay attention and engage properly with the game. I love the attention & really taking in the game. Lots of streamers d9nt properly enjoy or appreciate the games they ppay as theyre too busy talking over it

[@welshieteez-w1u]

Lol I had to turn my alerts off as my chatters like to spam them, regardless if they were through important cutscenes. Plus it takes away from getting fully immersed in the game

[@Koniving]

"Sometimes you just have to look behind." Behind the car; health drink in the window. Behind the note; there's more to it. (Ah, you did flip it shortly after.) Behind at the body, strangely familiar....

[@TerryRed]

I loved your SH1 playthrough, so I was eager to see this! You are such a sweet soul and a joy to watch! Your scared reactions and accidentally turning off the flashlight was precious, and I did the same, lol... even though I've been playing Silent Hill games for 23 years. I love seeing your reactions as this is all new for you, and your shock and surprised reactions are priceless! Your attention to detail is fun to watch, and I love how you noticed the heels on the Lying Figures right away! You will LOVE this game. It's a very tense and emotional trip. Like the original SH2... this is a very special game. Also... I agree with others in that how you balance interacting with chat is great as you prioritize the story / cut scenes and ambience of the game, which is a HUGE part of the SH experience.

[@vanpiisu88]

Enjoy the unforgettable journey Julia ❤! I love how you always take your time and explore everything 😊. Original SH2 is my favorite horror game and it's the game that made the franchise popular. Bloober Team have managed to make this remake even scarier. I havent felt this scared playing a game since Dead Space, really an audiovisual masterpiece.

[@hoseokismyhope3351]

Maybe it’s a bit shallow, but as a woman, I really prefer watching female gamers 😅 and my favorite streamer/yter kinda quit bc she has a kid now so I’ve been looking for someone else who posts their playthroughs on YT since I always miss stuff on Twitch. I love how much empathy you show while playing and how attentive you are :) I’ve never played Silent Hill 2 either and I was looking to watch a plathrough ❤ graphics and voice acting is just amazing

[@Mrs_Kirky]

Do you watch gab too?

[@dontperceiveme3025]

OMG same. Wtf did I write this? My favorite youtuber also quit bc of that and I miss her playthroughs so much.

[@joshcottrell4853]

I'm a guy and I agree. Other dudes are always trying to be funny, and the heaviness of the game gets lost.

[@_Shadoh_]

@@joshcottrell4853 Exactly, I find most male gamers annoying and also prefer to watch female gamers like Julia or Gab or Marz(who annoys me, but is also hilarious and entertaining). The only male gamer I watch and love is John Wolfe bc he is funny, but in a natural way and he's authentic, just a cool guy with whom you'd love to have a beer sometimes.

[@lumenflower]

I'm a woman, and I feel the same way. For me, the reasoning is similar, I think it's because more women tend to be okay with letting themselves feel what the games and stories are trying to make them feel. They're usually not afraid to engage w stories on a really emotional level, and I find that much more compelling to watch bc I get very emotionally invested in the stories of games I play too lol. I'd def enjoy watching super empathetic male streamers too, I just don't know many.

[@adelbert8981]

This game is a masterclass in atmosphere! Enjoy the spooks!

[@brandishspear1988]

Silent Hill 2 is one of the greatest games I ever played. If you wanna play the original I would recommend the OG Xbox port or PC enhanced version on modern TV though nothing beats the atmosphere and pure dread of the original silent hill 2 on PS2 played on a CRT TV. I finished the remake and it’s good. Glad more players will enjoy it.

[@princessmagical]

I'm playing the SH2 playstation 2 greatest hits version with the Born From A Wish scenario on my PS3 with an HD TV and it looks perfectly fine. Of course using a good HDMI cable. A CRT TV is not needed though even though it was released when CRTs were being made.

[@JustJDx]

_When you give Julia's video a thumbs up and realize it's the 666th Like on a Silent Hill 2 let's play during Halloween month_ 😮

[@gunship4720]

For some reason I thought it wouldn't have the original soundtrack...but hearing it again, my word. So much nostalgia. Ahead of it's time and oddly works very well with a lot of macabre tones in games and movies and art now.

[@jonissues1914]

it will be interesting to see what new people think of this remake, without knowing the original game.

[@vadymorlov4234]

I think it hits the same way if not better. If people liked it so much back then, the remaked game will do the same to newcomers. Scores at least indicate that people are loving it.

[@princessmagical]

There is some censorship and some things are watered down in this remake though so even though it's game of the year, everyone either needs to play or watch a playthrough of the original to experience the true disturbing SH2.

[@AshleyBabyMalone]

I missed your streams for this as I haven’t been well recently! Going to enjoy catching up on KZbin now

[@leonlacroix2638]

I love that your going in blind and are a player of dead by daylight. So you are fimular with james, maria, and pyramid head but only surface level. This story is so deep, haunting, and beautiful. I wish I could relive the experience of finding out. Enjoy your stay!

[@leonlacroix2638]

BTW James is my dead by daylight main :)

[@leonlacroix2638]

Also fun fact. A very good attention to detail a subtle yet important difference between James and Leon. If you look at James when he aims a gun it shows he has no gun safety training because he has his finger always on the trigger. Leon however because he does have gun safety training will gold a gun properly. Finger off the trigger

[@HollowedKnight66]

Loved watching this one Julia, your reaction to Pyramid Head was priceless 😂

[@Devondavis-fm2dz]

I love silent hill playing for years from zero to the remake. And people who never play it before is that silent hill the town itself for me is the monster and anyone cant go to the town like that they need to be invited in.

[@dabegmister]

They did a really good job with keeping pretty much the entire story from the original They just Kind of altered the situations and areas a little bit. They've added a few new puzzles and kept Most of the original ones that I van remember Again just kind of altering The way you find the pieces a little. It's a very good remake. There's also original Easter eggs. When you click on something amd he says his head hurts

[@dwatts64]

Great stream. So many times it was like she was speaking what I was thinking. But she does a good job of not being overly energetic or like she needs to fill empty space. She let's the game have most of the attention and only interjects with stuff that expands on what's happening, or is a valid heat of the moment reaction to something. Great stream. I can't wait to catch her on a live horror game playthrough. might I suggest Fatal Frame 1 or 2?? Fatal Frame 3 is good too, but it's generally harder to get a copy of and isn't quite as good as 1 and 2. If you have a PS3 they're all three on PSN store as digital PS2 classics though, so that's a cheap option instead of the hundreds of dollars the trilogy costs for PS2.

Going to play the remake too, I was so happy when I heard the remake was going to happen on my fave SH game. Weird that I'm more of a chicken with horror games now that I'm 33 than when I was a kid, and I also know the game by heart and it still scares me 😂 One thing about this game is you'll never know what you are about to see or hear from start to finish, it's unpredictable for somebody who plays it for the first time, because it's not like any other horror game where you just jump scare, it's the disturbing people and stories too.
