people don't talk about this alot but Team Silent, after Konami yeeted them, actually created their own lil studio under the name, Team Siren. They created more horror games call Siren, all having similar ideas to Silent Hill but basing themselves more on a random lil island in Japan, instead of somewhere in the US. I definitely recommend checking them out. I think they are on the PS3 online store so there ya go, go do that nerds, pls

[@SonicSonedit]

You still can. There is PUBG. Many hate it, but I absolutely love it - I always wanted a military sim with matchmaking and elements of survival. There are Larian with Divinity: Original Sin which became new Baldur's Gate. There are asynchronious horror games like Dead by Daylight featuring our favorite childhood movie killers in 1v4 PVP enviroment. And finally, there are Frictional Games with SOMA which is very, very close to Silent Hill in respect of unpretensions yet thought-provoking emotional story and horror that relies on atmosphere and not jumpscares and extreme attention to details. I strongly recommend this game if you liked Silent Hill. All these games were recently made by self-publishing studios (basically indie - hence indie stands for independent developer). All these games had a relatively low budget (Larian were completely sponsored by fans even) and came out super strong in their own niche and caught hearts of the fans, unlike every-year-new-forgetable-AAA-game that are made by big publishers. Finally, there is a game that I really waiting for - Death Stranding. So the grass just as green as it was - you just need to look around!

[@gamemaster2311]

Silent Hill 2 is my favorite thing ever. I would argue that it's almost perfect in it's execution. It's an incredibly powerful, emotional, and twisted story that seeks to be subtle by using symbolism but in no way comes off as pretentious. It drives fear in the player with it's clunky controls (which I believe was intentional), and uses themes of death, love, parenthood, etc. to connect with the player and present an emotional powerhouse while still managing an eerie and illusive atmosphere. David Lynch himself couldn't top this shit. I think that all forms of media could learn from this game, not just the games industry.

[@solitonmedic]

I always been meaning to get into the series, but had no where to start. I was considering in buying a copy on the original PS2 out of respect of the game.

[@gamemaster2311]

solitonmedic Ps2 or PC version are the only versions you should play. Every other version either fucks up the visuals, or in the case of the HD collection, changes music tracks and sound effects, effectively ruining the impact Team Silent intended.

Actual Goblin everything you just said is so true

And how the game straight up puts you through a psychoanalysis without ever telling the player is damn amazing. In a day and age where your choices as a player are blatantly televised to you (which subtract from their impact btw), I appreciate Silent Hill 2 so much for never telling the player. And having the choices thematically fit with the narrative

Come back, we gotta talk about the remake

[@SumeaBizarro]

I think the point of Laura is that kids can do and say mean things but it spawns from genuine innocence, the kind where you say things because you do not know or care better as a kid. She still has her own ego of a kid but she is not bogged down by sins like rest of the cast because she literally has not had time to commit any to her soul. After YOU pointing out her mean streak though, I for first time thought of this, much like everything else in SH2 Laura too is part of showing beautiful ugliness and I never put the theme of her character fully into my mind - that innocence is not same thing as faultless or perfection, it can be actually the opposite side of the coin that are sinners knowing full well what they've done and have guilt over.

This game is the fucking pinnacle of true horror to me. It came out when I was 7. I remember playing it with my brother who was 13. One day I swear when I was about 13 i had a flashback while watching a scary movie, i think it was The Ring. I remembered something much scarier than The Ring, or somthing scarier than I have ever seen for that matter. I remember being absolutely horrified watching my brother play this game. As a 25 year old I am still in love with this soundtrack too. It literally will bring a tear to my eye. The atmosphere of Silent Hill 2 is completely unrivaled in my opinion. Truly horrific and beautiful at the same time. Hats off to team Silent for making this masterpiece. I played it again recently by myself at 25 years old and have never felt nastolgia this intense with a video game ever. This game will be forever in my heart.

[@Dakobra_]

Beautiful video Jakey! Team Silent's work is so special, and was crafted with nothing but passion. The first three Silent Hill games are masterful pieces of art. The Room is still special, but the lack of Hiroyuki Owaku and Masahiro Ito is definitely felt. Silent Hill 3 is my personal favorite. Sure, I love James' melancholy trek through a personally crafted hell, and I love the desolate locations, thick atmosphere, and each of the broken characters. But I love Heather's journey of revenge and self discovery even more. I believe Silent Hill 3 is Team Silent's best work. I think it has Akira Yamaoka's best music. I think it has the series best art design with living breathing environments, thought provoking monstrosities, and highly detailed characters. I love the lore of the cult. I love Heather and Douglas as protagonists, and I love Claudia and Vincent as antagonists. I love learning what happened to Harry, and it's so cool revisiting locations that Harry explored as Heather. I love everything about Silent Hill 3. I also love that its existence is proof that everything in the first game is real, and not some dying dream or psychotic episode.

[@s3dchr]

One of the best games ever made. Actually, one of the best things ever conceived by humanity. Great video, love you for it.

[@ScottTangents]

I was playing the first game and second game at 9 years old... back in 2002. Silent Hill scared and amazed me for over a decade now.

[@spuddudz8331]

Watching this again after the Silent Hill update stream. We made it, Jakey.

[@snatchr2451]

Its weird and annoying how Takayoshi Sato has been basically erased over the last 20 years, you never hear his name anymore. Its always Masahiro Ito.

"Didn't you say that series was dead? I don't look like a ghost, do I?" "Yeah. Died of that damned disease, three games ago. I don't believe it! You could be her twin. Just your fog, and voice acting's different..."

[@theQuestion626]

Silent hill 2 was the greatest in the series. I remember when it first came out it wasn’t very well received because of its mystery and its complexity. I enjoyed the first game but not nearly as much as I enjoy the second. And what I think is most fascinating is that silent hill downpour was the closest to come to the beauty of the second. Say what you will about the American producers but downpour? That game was amazing.

[@playboiale8326]

I think this is your best video, the format, the editing, it’s just all….perfect

[@maximilianodicarlo125]

Finished for the first time over a month ago, got the water ending, It is really beyond words the feeling that grows inside when it comes to James and his realazation. I'm definitely playing it again...

[@yvans.73]

this made me emotional

[@kidd595]

Yes indeed

[@Jxxron]

My love for this story is just unexplainable

[@McGuffin56]

This was a game that absolutely horrified me without one jumpscare. Everytime I would boot up the game to inch closer to the ending, I would have to take breaks since my anxiety would continously climb as I play more and more with it's dread-laden atmosphere and that churning grinding soundtrack with that melancholic indie rock sprinkled in. Silent Hill 2 definitely feels like a cursed nostalgia the first time you play through it, and the more you play through it the more that feeling starts to cement itself, as if your remembering something you never wanted to figure out. There hasn't been any games like it since that induce that same sense of paranoia/tenseness unfortunately.

[@Cyborganna]

Exactly this! This game is responsible for getting me into Urbexing before it became a thing. There have only been a few instances of me feeling that deep eerie foreboding in real life, but nothing quite grips the darker parts of my soul like Silent Hill 2 does. It's a unique kind of paranoia that *almost* morphs into an embrace. The very definition of gripping...

[@DavidWoods255]

I can alway tell when someone likes something to the point that I do. You did SH justice. Such a classic cut down in its prime. Love u Jakey (edited to fix typos)

[@foxus-a113]

0:39 Such an awesome edit right there, I love you and your videos Jakey!

[@shockerblaster]

Never clicked on a notification so fast in my life. More NakeyJakey and Silent Hill 2? Count me in.

[@DjLiam99]

When i'm a couple hours late to a jakey vid i get the same feelings as when i forget to pick up grandma at the airport

[@jediCaboose96]

Fun fact: if you up the brightness on the cutscene of James looking in the mirror, he's not actually looking at himself. He's looking at you through the reflection of the mirror.

[@suoreoni]

wtf

[@Somespideronline]

Yup, 20 years later and one person founds something

[@l.l.a.s3645]

😶

[@solitonmedic]

That is creepy

[@unclejoedoe2700]

It was debunked years ago. The guy who made that theory thought it looked cool.

[@Fakan]

Had no idea why this kept popping up in my recommended videos. Was not disappointed. I love when people still appreciate two of the best games ever made. I still play them both every few years or so.

"I like video games. I hope they like me back..." - Jakey 2017

[@pax462]

Hope you talk about the Remake at some point

[@vasm650]

Now that you made a video about silent hill 2 you should make another beat out of the soundtrack. That shit was fire!!

[@akaeric007]

This made me play silent hill 2 for the first time. And it now shares it's place in one of my favourite games ever. Thank you so much

[@jjordan7521]

This whole video is gold. Just took me back man. I miss that feeling

[@Camuzz]

I talk about this game and the other with the same passion of this guy i don't know you, NakeyJakey... but *i love you*

[@ultraman7101]

Good to see this series getting more love in dead by daylight

[@athoth7704]

"And the music" *OHH MUH GUYUY*

[@PuchelloDraws]

oh my gosh no way. I literally was just listening to your song saintlike and I also listen to Moby Dick. I just got into your videos recently and just now did I realize that its you. Life is crazy man

[@MagicManCM]

I just played this game for the first time over the past week or so on the PC Enhanced Edition. It is beautiful. It is easily one of the best gaming experiences I have had. Instant favorite.

[@Daftex]

This video aged like a fine wine. Hey, Jake, have you played the remake? Are you planning on making a video about it, or the whole “making a remake of the best selling entries of a franchise” trend? Would love to hear your thoughts on the subject. Hope you doing fine

[@レッド-h1i]

Silent Hill 2 is indeed beautiful despite its eerie and creepy atmosphere.

[@paIeville]

it’s not beautiful despite its atmosphere it’s beautiful because of it

[@tapewaves2783]

julian that was beautiful
