One of my biggest gaming dreams is seeing Hideo Kojima actually make Silent Hills. Even though it is a short experience, it manages to be more scary than a lot of horror games. I would've loved to see what Silent Hills would've become if it wasn't cancelled.

[@afro4059]

Definitely could have been better than Soylent Hill Shart Massage

[@Mightypi]

Theres a good quote from him abou tit, soemthing like " to make good horror you jus thave to understand tention and timeing...to make great horror you have to be someone that gets scared of games" I guess theres a lvl of honesty in that thats hard to argue with

[@ruthlessredbeard]

​@@afro4059Fr tho, I made myself play it even though it was like Life is Strange with the "I'm 14 and this is deep" stuff. OG Silent Hills were about finding a loved one in an insane hell, not muh depression lol

[@afro4059]

@@ruthlessredbeard Yeah, one of the plot points of this game was literally "I dont get enough likes on twitter" and "Covid 19". Like, how is this related to Silent Hill? SIlent Hill F is probably gonna be the same.

[@LikaLaruku]

Konami looks at PT demo: "We can't release this abomination upon the world." USA looks at PT demo: "We will model every indie horror game after you for years to come."

[@Immolator772]

yeah the demo is abomination, yet they choose to release an unorginal remake that every company seems to do now. I would've been far more invested in this than remake of an old game.

[@iRsadface]

The history of how this game initially hit the scene dressed as another generic indie horror game really brings it's influence full circle. Kojima had it released under the nonexistent gaming studio "7780s Studio" and supposedly downgraded the graphics to maintain the charade. Forever one of the best sleeper hits of our time.

[@Exel3nce]

man that was so great. it just dropped out of nowhere, having that cheap ass xbox live cover picture (seen it while just browsing the store) and then people started talking about it more and more and i was just confused as to why. who would have thought this "nameless" mystery drop from noname was peak horror, ty kojimbo for this fantastic mystery

[@rgerber]

when this was relevant the graphics looked very realistic with its photolens efffects

[@dylanswanson5879]

It being a no-name game, silently released to the psn and becoming a phenomenon really is a testament to the quality of it. Nobody knew anything about the people who made it, or even that it was a silent hill game until people collectively figured out how to beat it much later after it launched. Still angry at konami over it's cancelation and it's almost been 10 years now.

[@ValosiTiamata]

All these years later and I'm still amazed at how faithful the remake is, with the exception of the ending. If you do a side-by-side, they're pretty much identical. And, if I remember right, the person who made it was just a teen at the time and Konami actually asked him to take the remake offline, claiming they were still working on a full game (which we all knew by then wasn't true).

[@where2eternity]

possibly my favorite detail about this entire experience of a demo is how the voice on the radio, even at its most neutral, is telling you things that it couldn't *possibly* know. the first murder occuring after lunch, the order of the killings, the circumstances of the father luring the daughter out of the bathroom, etc. there's no way anyone who wasn't there in the moment would know all of this

[@cesurfly]

[@Laura_Parenti]

I think you also missed the part where Lisa is seen on the second floor by the railings. I think it happens when the window breaks and it’s supposed to draw your eye upward to the balcony area. It’s such a creepy part, it’s too bad if you missed it.

[@Exel3nce]

i am not sure if its a 100%.

[@MichaelA-gt3zn]

I was also thinking about that. Every let's play that I've watched of this had people miss that part. I only knew of it because of screenshots I remembered seeing of her standing up there. I really wish everyone got to witness that because it looked so creepy and I would've loved to see the live reaction of the players!

[@zetetick395]

I love the stairs, for a long time you think you're going round in a circle, but you go down the stairs each time, meaning you're actually descending in a downward spiral...

[@Stand_By_For_Mind_Control]

It's a cool gimmick for a demo but what really caught my eye about it was how f'n crisp the graphics were. Would've loved to have seen a SH world that looks that good outside of a few corridors. Great voice work, too. I love the accusatory tone of the radio and diegetic narration. A trope that shows up in a few movies and I love it.

[@ValosiTiamata]

You can actually have your wish. At the end of the original teaser was a trailer for Silent Hills and we got to see the protagonist stepping out into the streets of Silent Hill. The small area we see was actually fully rendered, and there's footage available where someone extracted the files and explored the map.

[@brokenlotproductions]

Till this day, I consider Silent Hill PT to be the scariest game I’ve ever played

[@darddeac1055]

I remember TwoBestFriendsPlay, back when they were around and making Halloween content, played a game that just minorly took inspiration from PT for one segment (I think it was Deliverance), and it was enough to make them just quit playing out of fright. It was the only game that they did that with, aside from when Liam threw the mouse . The style of horror that it goes for is so raw.

I think he just plays with his volume low relative to the recording, and I don't think he uses headphones either.

[@Mayonez86]

I remember like it was yesterday. Watching several streamers and yourubers playing this (cos I didnt have ps4). It was a real internet event. The fact that you had to talk to your microphone (saying a name) and make certain number of steps while waiting for a certain sounds to trigger. I remember some people just endlessly walking the corridors loosing hope of actually finishing the game xD After the hype i spent hours watching videos and podcast about PT. One of the greatest moments in video game history.

[@KefkeWren]

It's a real shame that they took out the menu piece for the photo. It was honestly the most brilliant thing in P.T. - at least in my opinion. By hiding a piece that you could only find by going into the menu and turning up the gamma, the devs were able to simultaneously convey two very important pieces of information. First, that they knew what players were going to do, and even when you _thought_ you were cheating you could be playing right into their hands. The second, and perhaps more truly chilling thing was that _the fourth wall couldn't save you._ Even when you were doing things that shouldn't be a part of the game, like changing settings in the menus, the game was still going.

[@DaffierPig6843]

This game is the goat of horror games

[@ValosiTiamata]

PT wasn't the first game to explore the idea of being stuck in an endless loop, but the way it presented its horror and the extremely difficult puzzles made it the first to truly stand out. Another thing that sets the Playable Teaser apart from t he competition is that Hideo managed to get the legendary Junji Ito on board for the monster designs. No doubt the child was his work, as it's very much his aesthetic and, shall we say, sense of humour. Shesez did a boundary break of PT a while back, and there's a lot of crazy stuff you don't notice in the game. Even creepier is the fact that Lisa is always behind you (you have to shift the camera out of first-person to see her) and why... Because you're NOT the husband. (Plot and original teaser ending spoilers coming...) The husband was a very basic man, who led a boring life, but one day he was fired from his job. He turned to the bottle and the wife, Lisa, was forced to get a job to keep them afloat. Her boss was a lecher, and as the husband fell further into his alcoholism, Lisa eventually gave into her boss's advances and they began having an affair. She became obsessed with the attention and got careless. Months later, her husband discovered she was pregnant, and in a fit of rage, he gouged out her eye (for looking at other men) and forcefully removed the unborn child, killing both mother and baby. Sobering up, he realised what he'd done (the alcohol being the monster in him) and killed himself. The character you play in the teaser is a man named Norman Reedus. In the original ending, when you escape the house, Norman finds himself in the streets of Silent Hill and you get to see his face (the face was later reused by Hideo for the protagonist in Death Stranding, and he also included several PT easter eggs in Metal Gear: The Phantom Pain). While there's no definite confirmation, the standing theory is that Norman was Lisa's boss. Several clues suggesting this are in the game, not the least of which are the sound of a zipper and some additional... suggestive sounds... after Lisa snaps your neck partway through. Sadly, without knowing the plot of the main game, we'll likely never find out what Norman was doing in that house or if Lisa was haunting him because she couldn't let him go (or if it was because of his guilt over the affair leading to the death of both Lisa and his unborn child). We do know Norman seemed confused to find himself in Silent Hill. Finally, a brief trailer for the full game featuring at least one of Junji's monsters appeared when you escaped the house. You can find the trailer on YT if you look around. For obvious reasons, the big reveal of Norman in Silent Hill and the trailer for Silent Hills weren't included in this remake.

[@Quaternality]

Since you put that in spoilers, I will do so as well. Norman Reedus is a real person and an actor, and provided the face, voice, and probably body acting for his character in Death Stranding (and at least the face for PT). I don't know if we know the names of any character in PT or Silent Hills, save Lisa. But I haven't looked too hard into it.

[@maow-tty]

Actually Ito himself debunked the idea that he worked on Silent Hills/P.T. Rather, del Toro spoke to Ito once at a gathering, and that was that.

[@the_real_Kurt_Yarish]

Kojima was really interested in filling his games with allusions and commentary on contemporary Western socio-political events and history, specifically how they interact with the broader world. The newsman on the radio pronouncing "911" as "9/11" may be an intentional reference to the September 11th attacks, as a way of subtley coding unease and images of violence and terror into American players. It could also just be a quirk of translation, but usually he's more deliberate than that. You could get VERY deep into potential meanings and interpretations with his games, and PT is no exception.

[@where2eternity]

that is also just how 911 as a telephone service was referred to for a long time in america, too. they only changed that part of their branding like 20-ish years back, and it was so that kids needing to dial the number weren't confused as to finding an eleven key on the phone

[@generatoralignmentdevalue]

I think having the hallway shift and change a lot would have undermined the downward spiral. You turn 90°, then go down, then repeat. I saw a video once that showed visually how as a loop, that means you are circling downward the longer you play. Non-euclidian hijinks would not have added anything here.

[@EpicSmileyMan64]

Holy crap the phone at 42:48 scared the crap outta me, I have a phone with a very similar ring IRL that sounds just like that so I rocketed my headset off and looked towards it. As soon as I realized it was in game I laughed for a solid minute.

[@katnisseverdeen1444]

The fact that I heard way too many people saying that P.T was the best horror experience they had lived is not coincidence at all. I remember myself back in 2014 watching Pewdiepie playing it, I was so scared back then and when the demo ended I said "I really enjoyed this... I want more"

This game is one of the freakiest games out there, right next to Outlast for me. The progression in the beginning is master-level, and for a game that's a decade old, and is just a teaser for a game that never came out. My stepdad actually had this on his PlayStation Network account, and I actually saw him play it back in the day, but I was too young to watch it and not be scared, so I'd just run to my bed and only think about what would happen and what I'd see if I would stay in the living room and finish watching him play. Sadly, I got a PlayStation 4 too late to purchase this game, but I have played this remake, and it's pretty faithful. I'd definitely recommend it.

Replayed this on PS4 just the other day, it's such a classic. I've done it dozens of times over the years. This remake is really impressive and only misses a few little details here and there. And things like "Press the blue X to gouge it out" make a lot more sense on a PlayStation controller compared to a keyboard.

[@Alesiopdv]

While I sadly never got to play this on its original format I´ve seen so many lets play and videos about it I basically know it by heart since it was so damn popular back in the day...so is pretty weird to see someone going basically blind into it, it´s a real weird feeling of generational gap...and this game isn´t even that old! Either way, loved the video.

[@-EndlessHorizon]

You know whats amazing about the fox engine? how incredible it looks. The original PT looks leaps and bounds more detailed than this as good as it is. Also the numbers were important they were part of a puzzle surrounding the game it was a cypher for the message that flashed in every language

[@GikamesShadow]

Something subtle that PT did, that people tended to overlook the most, was the whole going down the stairs part. Everyone focused on the main horror which obviously makes sense. But Silent Hill was always about the meaning behind things that happen in the story. And in this case, this too means something. You are further and further descending down an endless literal spiral. Whatever the spiral may be, guilt, shame, depression, death, limbo, whatever. You arent going in a circle, which would indicate a sense of "being stuck in a bad place". You are quite literally moving down the stairs, breaking the loop every single time but still coming back to it at a different stage, getting worse and worse with each time.

At 20:18, if you played the original P.T. on Playstation, you would know the blue X corresponds with the button on the controller. Although there were still plenty of people who played the original and couldn't figure that puzzle out. 26:40 Some people also didn't understand this puzzle. 37:00 Some people never new there was a zoom while plsying, which is really big problem when most of your progress is tied to it. Silent Hills could have been a great game, but most would need a guide to make progress. Also seeing how some are reviewing The Short Message, probably safer to cancel it.
