Making of Silent Hill 2 - HQ

[@TheJboy88]

I miss the days when video games would come with special "making of" DVD's. Why'd they stop?

[@rolan5948]

Because now they just release it on youtube, when this game came out, the internet was in its infancy stages

[@johnnylozano3745]

It just feels as though with better graphics its come more apparent that game developers have somehow lost there way.

The reason I still come back to this game is because it literally is the definition of art it reaches to the point where it no longer is a game nor a story. It's a pure masterpiece

[@IntoTheVoyd]

I was always more of a RE fan, with Silent Hill taking a back seat, but even I cannot deny the brilliance of this game. Without exaggeration or hyperbole, one of the greatest video games ever made

[@shibitoobscura3348]

Fun fact: This making of, just like the one of Silent Hill 3, was created by the French radio channel "Fun TV", which is why it also exists with a French narrator. But more relevantly, the French version of this making is slightly longer, containing a few parts that were removed from the English version. Among them, there are parts of the interviews where the developer mention other game franchises, namely Final Fantasy and Resident Evil: - When Mr.Sato explains that he purposely created imperfections on Maria's face and why he did that, he originally explains that the characters of Final Fantasy are too perfect, and that he thinks he created something more realistic. - When Akira Yamaoka talks about the unique sound effects he wanted to create for SH2, the French version contains this additional line from him: "I think the sounds of Resident Evil are kinda conventional. I would almost say that our ears are used to it." That's why he explains how he wanted to create something more unique. - Also, the French subs have a funny moment in the parts with Akira Yamaoka. After translating what he says, at some point, the subtitles add this: "Here, Akira is only finishing his sentence. But since it's in Japanese, it is very long... So we're keeping you busy in the meantime. Thank you for your comprehension." There are a couple of other things I forgot No big deal, but I thought it was fun to share this with English-speaking Silent Hill fans. :)

I remember I got the silent hill 2 directors cut when I was 11 years old. It came with the making of cd. I remember going out of the bathroom then getting to the beginning of the path leading to silent hill. I got a few steps down the path and then I began to hear the rustling sounds coming from the bushes and I instantly got freaked out and turned the game off. I watched the making of the game countless times until I finally grew the courage to play it again. To this day its still the greatest game ive ever experienced.

[@nugsboodlepoo]

I can relate! I also got it when I was 11 and was too afraid to play it but I was ridiculously curious about the game. There was a kid in my class who beat it and I would pester him relentlessly for ever tiny detail about the game lol

[@darkl3ad3r]

The path through the forest definitely scared the hell out of me too. I barely managed to push on to get the radio and plank, but the apartments made me freeze in my tracks. It took a long time to finally move on past that first "dungeon." What a fantastic work of art.

[@Diwasho]

The FMVs are so masterfully crafted in this game, I hadn't seen more believable human CG animations until many years later. There is almost no uncanny valley with the facial animations, and when there is I think it's intentional (Eddie going crazy). To think this is achieved with no mocap, it's amazing. It's too bad they never talked about Laura in this making of. Laura does come off as an annoying brat at first, but as you learn more about her situation she gets easy to sympathize with.

[@DazzzTube]

Sato explaining why he didn't want to use motion capture just goes to show how much passion he had for this game. He could have easily cut corners and used mo cap but he didn't feel it would capture everything he wanted. It's a shame not all game devs still have this kind of passion for creating games these days.

[@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. ☯️

[@AhmedAli88]

The happiest day of my life would be when the whole team of Silent gets together again to create a traditional SH game. It has to follow the first three games. I have had some hope when Kojima announced Silent Hills. Maybe he wouldn't capture the true spirit of original SH games, but he would create a perfect story hat fits the universe of sh... Too sad the greediness of Konami's CEO cancelled the game. But one maybe day. Maybe...

This making of gets more and more impressive with every console generation. As pretty as graphics are looking now, Silent Hill still holds up so well for simple design choices, like using manual modeling for characters' facial expressions as opposed to motion capture. Only just this year did Masahiro Ito even reveal that Pyramid Head's great knife was intended to be one half of a pair of giant scissors, and that the one James finds was originally supposed to be a different model entirely. Silent Hill 2 really is a lasting work of true genius, yet not because of one single entity. Everyone onboard worked so harmoniously to create a masterpiece.

You are awesome for ripping, converting, and uploading this.

[@wesflarger]

I really like Sato.

[@JUSCuas3]

This game changed my life. I never played it when it came out and only came round to it a few weeks ago. It's a masterpiece.

[@pedrolotti45]

one of the best ps2 games ever

[@thecheeze9001]

I can't unsee Sato on Maria's face now.

[@AbrilZendejas]

THE BEST IN DA WHOLE WORLD FOR ME

[@zz1516]

Why is it so hard for developers to make games like this?.... How many more years until we get good games again?

[@cheesemanzombie9151]

I remember when i first saw silent hill 2 in the shop I knew it was gonna be a great game by the amount of work they put into making the case look beautiful the way it folds out with art of the characters and parts of Mary's letter on it

[@ارابيلا-ي6ج]

Wow I didn't know the letter came with the disk

[@kevinsuarezmacena1003]

Making of a "Legend" :P.

[@ItsAnEndlessWorld]

Honestly believe this is the greatest video game of all time... the whole idea of "Silent Hill" is so interesting and out of the norm. First time I played I was on the edge damn near every minute! To recreate that feeling is something that's hard to do life changing experience damn near. Glad I still own my copy of this masterpiece and will keep it as long as I live.

[@marioandres9902]

Silent hill 2 fue hecha con mucho aprecio, Obra maestra de su género que lo acompaña con una increíble banda sonora y una increíble historia

[@stephencalderwood9757]

"Like in the first game, the main character does not have the key role" One of the millions of reasons why this franchise lives in my heart. James and Harry were great characters but those around them created the story. Genius. Perfect example is Heather and Henry. Both were main protagonists but they had the key roles i.e birth of the God and 21 sacrements. Im away to play ps1 now :D

[@igor_rybovic]

This is not just a game.. it is pure art and beautiful horror that evokes emotions in you, makes you think deeply about yourself and life. Team Silent changed horror forever. Silent Hill always was and always will be the king of horror. Timeless and unforgettable. They put so much heart and emotion and detail into it and you can feel it. Silent Hill 1, 2, 3 and 4 are just perfect. Homecoming is fine too.

[@praisetheoak]

Team Silent, your work will never be forgotten. We won't let this disaster of a "remake" tarnish the legacy of one of the greatest Horror Games ever made.

[@DatcleanMochaJo]

Its almost out soon.

[@CordeliaAurora]

This didn't age well lol

[@BareBandSubscription]

Yeah, this aged like milk in summer

[@Tuchet9]

You know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know.

[@felphero]

I never thought SH2 had that good of graphics, but to this day in this PS4 era I still think SH3 has some really fucking pretty graphics. I still think it looks better than both Home coming and Downpour

[@hazardousjazzgasm129]

Graphical Fidelity or art style? Also, I agree with you on SH3.

[@tatoforever]

Jason Bissainthe Right term! Graphics Fidelity != Good Art Direction. Nowadays games are almost like movies but they don't express any kind of art emotion or art style. Good point Jason!

[@hazardousjazzgasm129]

Agreed entirely, mate. It's why I find games like Okami (not even Okami HD, but 2006 Okami) to be some of the greatest looking of all time.

[@chrismhp]

+FelpHero SH 3 is certainly the strongest in the beautiful art direction and how it holds up. But SH2 is also incredible. The outdoor areas weren't as sharp, but all the indoor claustrophobic environments hold up amazingly well. The PC version, with maxed out resolution allows you to see the insane amount of detail that went into making each room, hallway, floor, wall...in the game. Truly impressive and astounding how good it looks considering it came out nearly 15 years ago. It manages to put all the other newer SH games to shame, which is a testament to the level of work and artistic drive that the original SH games had.

[@mokenetgumshoe1064]

Technical power is no match for true artistry

[@egontokessy1610]

Thank you Fungo, much appreciated :).

[@Hamster510]

Takayoshi Sato is a GOAT

[@marcushoms7581]

I keep coming back to this because I miss the time when video games were made with passion and crafted with real enthusiasm unlike the cheesy shit they come out with in the market nowadays.

[@voyaage1969]

I wanted to come back here and say thank you to everyone on Team Silent that worked on this masterpiece. Almost 25 years in the making, having finished the remake, it was like a love letter to long time fans and honored Team Silent's vision, if not expanded on it where some aspects of the remake have made things better. Its a really good time to be alive and see history in the making with a retelling of the masterpiece that is Silent Hill 2. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. My life has been changed yet again.

[@deadsec3554]

love letter ? more like an email wrote by chatgpt

[@voyaage1969]

@deadsec3554 oh hell no, did you play the remake at all? Bloober Team really did deliver.

[@juanmanikings]

@@voyaage1969 Nah it was mediocre

[@maxreis9534]

The making of really shows what makes it special among the other survival horror games. Deeply depressing themes about the real world horror which people can inflict to each other. Associative monster and environment designes.

[@rpralejandro]

The making of the best horror game of all fcking time

[@tombstone4290]

Happy 22nd Anniversary Silent Hill 2! Such a timeless game filled with sadness, ambiguity, solace, love, all the elements of human emotions allows the gamer to encounter the misty fog, in a town, the setting, the story is amazing. I have the copy for the PlayStation 2. Iconic and awesome sequel of Silent Hill 1.

[@gainamv_7721]

I LOVE SILENT HILL!

[@aaron75fy]
