I really like how Keith is willing to be quiet during cutscenes, when people are talking. So many KZbinrs just can’t shut up and will talk right over cutscene dialogue. He saves the commentary for after the scene is over, which I really appreciate. Even for games I’ve played before, it’s nice to see the scene again. Also, it feels like the person playing is actually paying attention. It’s more entertaining for me to watch someone play if they seem like they’re actually engaged in the content.

I don't watch many let's players anymore, but I like watching Keith because even in multiplayer, he does seem to do his best to listen to the game and pay attention! It's great

Though not the best title in the series, I still have the strong opinion that Downpour is the titel in the series that deserves a remake the most. It had so many interessting ideas and quirks that enriched the franchise. Also the story was realy solid and much of the critic comes down to the missing polishment of the game.

[@Freak80MC]

Recently I watched a Stop Skeletons from Fighting video on bad games that made something click for me. I think when most people say that the later Silent Hill games were "bad games", what they really mean is they are unpolished games. But for me, unpolished doesn't equal bad. So maybe that's why I like all the Silent Hill games. Honestly Downpour is up there with Silent Hill 2 for me.

[@Utbaut]

@@Freak80MC Depends. I think many of the problems in "the room" came from forcefully fitting it into the Silent hill universe. This is something you cant realy change by 'polish'. Silent hill 4 would have been much better of as a stand alone universe.

Finding out Keith has an xbox is just such a jumpscare

[@sylas3265]

Isn't it weird how Harold acts normal but acknowledges how all the roads are "out"? We love dreamlike states

Spooky month! Time to chill with more Silent Hill.

[@RudeMyDude]

Let's go! It's october baby

[@DeonTain]

1:12:00 In this context sheer means partly see through. Like some thin curtains that block some light but can be seen through.

[@deathislife1993]

I had a garbage day at work, we have corporate coming in tomorrow so of course everything needs to look perfect, but I remembered that it was October, and you'd be doing Downpour this month, so it gave me something to look forward to. I've loved so many of your playthroughs, looking forward to this one!

[@nickcarroll8565]

I don’t have a lot of time to watch let’s plays anymore, but I always come to Keith’s channel for October spooky games. My guilty pleasure.

[@deathislife1993]

@@nickcarroll8565 Yeah, I used to watch a fair amount of people, for me it is just Keith now, when I can find the time for it. The days of watch TheRadBrad for 10+ hours have, for better or worse, passed for me.

[@thronezwei4412]

"The Deadlies are Premonitioning!" I snort-laughed.

[@remrevo3944]

"The devil's pit" I don't think that's what they meant when they speak of the "Pit-Meta".

[@liallen9380]

Has it really been seven years already? Excited for the final round, like the end of a horror series. Back to finish the job, one last time, FOREVER. I actually had forgotten about this one entirely, so it'll be interesting to have no idea what's going on for once!

[@InugamiTheHound]

damn the last time I saw anyone play "silent hill:downpour" was two best friends play many years ago. I still remember all dumb jokes especially the one with "triangle girl" and how she gives the worst head(also pyramid's head younger sister) and kids these days love the devil (Bon Jon Jovi and the beastie boys, the cops are down with the devil and devil doesn't pay any rent) I'm also playing spooky games for October as well (Condemned 1 and 2 and after than FEAR 1 and 2)

[@redaeth]

Sheer refers to a semi-transparent thin fabric. So the watcher was celebrating that fact.

[@aristizle8797]

Oh this isn't over. This what we do now. This is who we are. There are other Silent Hill games. You are not ready for Silent Hill Book of Memories.

[@KeithBallardA]

I'm ready to skip it.

[@Flippirino]

Fun fact Silent Hill Downpour is probably my most played and most favorite Silent Hill, I even listen to the OST on occasion more than I do the SH2/SH3 OSTs

[@Cr00iser]

"Another road to nowhere." - One of my favorite lines in the game. (Murphy will say that at the edge of one of the destroyed roads at the beginning.)

[@Ahkaskar]

I feel like the community response to downpour was pretty bad, but I remember liking the last lets play of it I watched. I feel like this one at least understood the homework even if manages to be different. it's a proper different look at the formula instead of whatever the heck homecoming was.

[@Freak80MC]

Yooooooooooo you're doing this game?! I hope you do all the side quests because that's where this game really shines. The main story is a bit anemic but all the side quests really add to the atmosphere and vibe of the town. It feels like they worked more on the side quests than the main story tbh lol

[@yate0128]

Omgawd thas so funny I literally am going thru ur Silent Hill 1 playthru 😂 Funny going from 30 min episodes to a full 2 hours

[@nashrenault5568]

Hey :) if you can please try to complete all side quests they are interesting :)

[@sire011886]

Hell yeah

[@professornormal9677]

hey, ~I~ thought your Pendleton's Ward joke was VERY clever!

[@9Godslayer]

I would suggest playing The Suffering after this as a bit of videogame mouthwash.

[@JohnSmith-eq5bw]

Hype for the next one. Silent Hill 2 2.

[@JohnSmith-eq5bw]

"Big get together" UwU

[@ano.s.6134]

Well…. Not the last one anymore

[@BlueGemini42]

The Silent Hill 2 Remake seems to have a lot of good reviews from reviewers and small youtubers so it might be worth it to play. I watched your original Silent Hill 2 playthrough so it would be interesting to see you play the remake, either this year or next year.

[@CRSB00]

then Silent Hill 2 remake just came
