The one time we see James happy is heartbreaking.

[@sainttan]

Basically James decided to stay in this video world where Mary is alive and healthy. Don't know if that world would loop or be stagnant, but it seems James didn't mind and was just happy to be with her again.

[@enexe6229]

probably it wouldn't loop or repeat itself since she even asks him "did something happen" on her own? it's an alternative universe.

[@johans3164]

The Remake is already great but the fact that they are able to make a new ending that totally feels appropriate for SH 2 is absolutely amazing. Props to the team

[@meowcaroniYT]

I took this as the tape never showed James killing Mary, thus he never remembers killing her, and gets pulled into the tape since he's no longer in the chair. His soul lives in perpetual ignorance and bliss in Silent Hill.

[@TheJerbro69]

James briefly pauses to think. He knows that something is wrong.

[@tim_hoffman]

I think it supposed to be James repressing what he did so thoroughly that he has permanently trapped himself within his deluded fantasy of being with Mary again.

[@Nigel222]

relatable unfortunately

[@Thor_92]

That's basically the rebirth ending I think this one is much happier.

[@munanchoinc]

My interpretation is that Silent Hill gave him what he wanted. But at the price of living in fantasy. Stuck in place. Never progressing.

[@DENOhritko]

I guess he's completely OK with it, consider what "progression" has led to

[@Nigel222]

relatable

[@yasajatsuautopsia]

Someone said somewhere that to get this ending you had to find the White Claudia (a drug mentioned in SILENT HILL 1), I don't know if it's true, or what other things were necessary. But even if it is because of the white claudia effect, isn't silent hill an entity that manifests your psyche? If James was able to create a possibility in his head where Mary is healthy, that possibility could also end up being real. It's like using the power of the entity to your advantage, but not by repression (like in the Rebirth ending), but simply by moving to another universe. Even if he never remembers killing her, it doesn't mean he would do it again (since James was never a psychopath, just someone who screwed up terribly once, yeah, but that's it), I don't think he is "inside the VHS", but rather in another reality. Let us remember that SH has a great occult and esoteric base. Televisions, as well as radio, can capture "paranormal activity." Remember the Japanese movie "THE RING" (ringu)?. Where the spirit of a dead girl was recorded on camera, and from the recording came out into the real world? I think that the power of SH, despite seeming completely "diabolical", in a certain way is also neutral, proof of this is that it allows the protagonist to face his guilt directly, and heal. In other endings, Silent Hill allowed James to meet Mary again, have one last talk, and make peace. So, I think in the ending BLISS james finds a way through the Silent Hill power, even if it's with a natural drug, to create his own reality. Sorry for my english.

[@0r0ch1]

The saddest, most haunting conclusion this tale could have had. . . Bloober knocked it out of the park

[@cripside60s55]

"Everything is fine"

[@leddarklight7566]

*Knows he's trapped forever in a VHS yet accepts that fate as is the only way to be with Mary*

[@Nosfera22]

Really impressive that they were able to make a new ending that feels like it could've come from the original game. I see this one as James being absorbed by Silent Hill itself. The White Claudia gives the town dominion over him and keeps him forever inside that video tape

[@libcrypt98]

This is a great "full circle" ending.

[@jackmarcussy2477]

That is one "Shining" moment of an ending.

[@jackmarcussy2477]

I was refencing the Stephen king / Stanley Kubrick movie

[@johans3164]

I love it when James said "Its Shining time" and proceed to make himself even more depressed. True cinema moment

[@user-dingydee]

@@johans3164almost as good as when Bloober said “it’s Pol’ing time” and proceeded to make my Japanese game Polish

[@alkizard-r5x]

at least . .he is happy now

[@captainash6581]

People always ask: What is the canon ending to SH2? It's one of gaming's hottest debates: "Team Silent said In Water is their favorite!" "Guy Cihi said Leave is his favorite!" "The novelization uses In Water!" In my opinion, there is no canon ending: Each one represented a different way for James to deal with what he did: Whether he learns to bear the burden of his guilt and move on, like he believes Mary would have wanted - or he can't bear his guilt and goes to join her. Whether he willfully continues living a lie and repeats the cycle that lead him to the town to the first place, or he tries to defy reality to undo his mistakes, possibly suffering a worse fate than any other possibility. Bliss is the perfect addition to these endings: James ends up literally living inside of his last good memory, when Mary was still healthy, the two of them were in their 'special place', and there was no bad blood between them. Just the two of them, forever. He turns off the video before he has to confront what he did, willfully continuing to stay ignorant of what he did to Mary... and ignorance, as they say, is bliss. It's like a combination of the Maria and Rebirth endings, just like Stillness is a new take on In Water. I really can't get over how good these two new endings are.

[@Eizenicus]

So since its not shown here I'll just mention that to get this ending James drinks White Claudia which for any that dont know: is a plant refined into a drug used by The Order from SH1. So James is hallucinating during the tape and probably thinks he's living out the good days with Mary. I honestly thought this one was more bittersweet at first and then found out the White Claudia bit and it became very very sad again..

[@muslimayupov]

yeah but those hallucinations become the reality since james dissapears. its hallucinagenic nature is the key to many rituals.

[@Eizenicus]

@muslimayupov That's a good point, I like the idea of the White Claudia OD, but it doesn't explain why he's just gone.

[@loowisk1113]

@@Eizenicus Probably left to interpretation but I guess he's not in the chair once the VHS ends because in his mind he is inside the VHS.

[@Eizenicus]

@@loowisk1113 Yeah for sure. My thought was that since he's trippin hard, he's playing out what happens in the tape in reality so after the camera turns off he's packing up and leaving the hotel with "Mary" to live out the good days, in ignorance of what really happened- but in reality who really knows from there, maybe it was a lethal dose or he was attacked or went crazy or something. Either way interpretation is truly the glory of this series I like seeing what others have thought of this one so far.

[@loowisk1113]

@@Eizenicus I didn't actually think about how James is outside of the trip... I think you're probably right though, it's definitely a bittersweet ending either way, it's perfect for him until it isn't. Great addition by Bloober Team. Such a beautifully tragic game.

[@torshec8634]

The new "Harry Died" ending.

[@TheFickle]

i think its cool how the camera pans around the chair just like it did in the original ps2 game

[@RawrOfTheEmo]

This is cool

[@NomadMonkey396]

(Ryo from shenmue) this is cool!!

[@LordMalice6d9]

It does make the player wonder if James is a person who deserves a happy ending to his story.

[@ji-wonseong1623]

Wow, a Silent Hill within a Silent Hill- now that's deep!

[@SolidusSpartan]

This is my new favourite ending

[@Echoplex25]

What an incredibly depressing ending. I'm ngl tho, if this happened to me, I would do the exact same thing as James

[@dignusdingus3709]

I take this ending as a visual representation of James completely repressing what he did and choosing to be ignorant towards it.

[@froxymn_4277]

so beautiful ending

[@karially3820]

Not sure if be happy or sad. Only sure this hit me like a truck

[@GuestOfGregoryHouse]

Damn that's an eerie ending

[@damirkyn]

sobbing

[@recordkeepertype0662]

Ignorance is Bliss; James ignored that his actions contributed to Mary's passing, never to face the truth in blissm

[@mrfandangojimmies7117]

Man I love Persona 4

butterfly effect reference

[@LJK86]

How?!

[@leddarklight7566]

James refuses to move on or suicide,so Silent Hill did the only thing it could for him...sucking him into the VHS. James is trapped forever in a 3 minutes video but he's happy with that as he's with Mary

[@enexe6229]

@@leddarklight7566 it's more than just a 3 minutes video because she even asks him "did something happen?" on her own. it's a parallel universe.

[@TheJerbro69]

@@enexe6229 I don't know if that's true. I mean,Mary has that recording filter voice with Mono audio all the time while James sounds like always with a Stereo audio. For me at least,James decided to enter into the VHS as inside is Mary exactly how he remembered her. That's his true Mary,before the sickness and the frustration that ended up forming Maria. I don't see Silent Hill giving James a happy ending without a twist also,that would be very heartwarming from its part. James has to suffer no more but in exchange,he's bound forever to that VHS that could be another universe or not.

[@muslimayupov]

​@@TheJerbro69well the point is she still reacts to his actions

[@MT_Foxtrot]

and then what, he kills her again?

[@yasajatsuautopsia]

Not necessarily, she doesn't look sick there.

[@karially3820]

No because she is not sick
