Wanted to clarify any miscorrect information I made regarding the entries on my behalf. Apologies in advance. I make mistakes sometimes. It happens. Hope you understand. 6:31 The Whsiper of Room 209 was initially believed to be a voice actor rehearsing gibberish, but it was later found out to be stock audio. 11:13 Ernest Baldwin is the name i meant to say. I accidentally said James Baldwin by mistake. Born From a Wish was not an unlockable but rather was included in the Restless Dreams Edition from the start.

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. ☯️

1:49 - Worth mentioning: the distance to Brahms has been worn away, but can be seen to real 265 (presumably miles). This is a dual reference. The HD Collection changed the number to something much smaller (I think like 16 miles?) and this became a whole debate in the community. There was some speculation that the original was meant to be 26.5, but I don't think we've ever gotten confirmation on that, at least as far as I'm aware. The fact that it's rubbed away in the Remake seems like Bloober's way of saying "nobody knows how far Brahms really is", but they also left remnants of the original number.

After my playthrough of the new remake of sh2 I think I finally may have answered a persisting question regarding the 3 year inconsistent lapse of time between Marys death and when James talks to Laura about it and she says that's wrong. I'm starting to believe the reason why James keeps saying 3 years because in his mind when Mary first got so unmanageably sick 3 years ago that it consumed his life that's when in his mind she died as apposed to her official passing. He then kills her, puts her body in the baskseat of his car, stops by a local restroom to compose himself before he pursues his next coarse of action, then time for him stops after 9 and it's reflected on all of the clocks and he is trapped in an psychological eternal recurrence.
@Catalyst5128 күн бұрын
well i mean the game kinda obviously explains it when laura reveals that she turned 8 a week before the events of the game. james killed mary, took her body to silent hill to do god knows what with, has a psychotic break in the bathroom and then the game happens. this is why he checks his hands at the very start and when he kills eddie. mary didnt die 3 years ago, and we know she never sent him a letter. the letter and his line of thought is all pure delusion. i personally believe that yes the entire game does happen inside of his head because the mirror in the bathroom at the start is the only mirror in the game that you can see james reflection in and you cant see yourself in dreams.

He missed that several things were from the original or were references to the original as well.

the whisper in 209 is from an audio cd of sound effects that they used. It has not been recorded by anyone on the team. It's been debunked before

I re-did the fight with pyramid head when it ended and i realized it was just timed, was not walking away after dumping all that ammo. 😂

I read that there's supposedly a corpse in the prison with a spoon on its neck that is a nod, or even the corpse of, Walter Sullivan who killed himself that way

It would be awesome if they created dlc for Maria, Eddie, Angela and Laura

I am very curious to see their take on Born From A Wish. I know that they're gonna bring it as DLC, just like how RE4 Remake did with Seperate Ways.

In the very First scene you can See an Imprint of James Wedding Ring he took of. Indicating his wife is not as Long dead, James think she is, because the imprint should Not be there.

Another interesting detail I noticed is that the corpses that Eddie has killed are all actually James if you look close enough. No idea why tho.
@CatManThreeАй бұрын
ALL of the corpses in the game look James. This was actually a detail carried over from the original game.

James seeks to be punished for his crime, hence he sees all corpses in the city as himself. Eddie, however, is killing his bully/tormentor over and over, not James. It is one of many hints that James, Angela, Eddie, and Laura are each seeing very different versions of Silent Hill. James is decaying, like Mary and her disease, full of feminine monsters reflecting his thoughts about Mary. Eddie's is cold, reflecting his growing enjoyment of killing, Angela's is always ablaze, like flames of torment and hatred, and Laura - the only completely innocent person - sees nothing out of the ordinary.

Hi. I'd like to mention that I though that the save room right before fighting the first enemy of the game is *probably* a reference to the first room you start in that old Silent Hill Mobile game. The plant, door and desk are suspiciously in sinilar places and it really gives that vibe. Hope it helps (:
