The MOST TERRIFIED I've ever been... - Silent Hill 2 Remake [1]

[@PhoenixNat]

I can’t stop laughing at myself watching this back 🤣🤣

[@joeb918]

At least you’ve got a good nature about looking back at yourself, I fear I’d cringe myself to death… the noises in this game are great, it’s a game the game likes to play with you… which noises are ambiance and which noises are dangerous. Good times.

[@sletrent]

Algorithm sent me here. Love your reaction so far! This is maybe one of the scariest games I’ve ever played and I’m a big survival horror fan. It just gets more and more intense. Have fun!

[@PhoenixNat]

🙌🏼 praise the algorithm 🙌🏼 Thank you for checking out the vid, absolutely the scariest thing I’ve ever played for sure 😅🫠

[@ianchandler4649]

Don't get holy on me, @sletrent! This algorithm called you too! We're not like other people!

[@sletrent]

@ “Shit off!” is going to become my new catchphrase

[@PhoenixNat]

🤣 peak fear, I can’t even form a proper panic response

[@marcpelosi380]

As someone who has had this game in their life for the past 20 years, it's been such a joy to see people experience it for the first time. Bloober Team did such an amazing job with this remake. So well in fact that I don't think I'll ever play the original again. The memories they were able to recreate. The emotion they've been able to draw out of me again. The detail they've been able to add is just incredible. I hope they are able to work on remakes of the other games as well. This is horror.

[@PhoenixNat]

I am so genuinely thankful, I would not have experienced this game if it wasn’t for such an excellent remaster. A lot of folk were very hesitant, but yeh, seeing an entire (gaming) generation experience it for the first time is so cool! Hopefully they do the others now!

[@adambennett1199]

Such a lovely voice and personality. Definitely the coziest feeling SH2R playthrough I’ve watched. Well done.

[@PhoenixNat]

This, honestly, is such a compliment - I strive for a chill space, even when I’m in deep deep fear mode 😅 thank you 🫶🏼

[@lukeydookie3364]

Love that you’ve got the HR monitoring lol

[@PhoenixNat]

LUKE! Thank you ❤️ this playthrough was such a joy, I’m just so glad I could bring it you KZbin. Enjoy… see how many times I fly past 100bpm 🫠🤣

[@floriansaurusrex]

Long time Silent Hill fan here but new to the channel, the algorithm got me to your playthrough! Really enjoying how you play it, you're so observant and thorough it's scratching the right bit of my brain 🧠

[@Turambar88]

The wedding ring tan line on James' finger in the opening is such a nice touch.

[@PhoenixNat]

Oooo! There’s so many details in this game, I didn’t see that at all. Please do share as many as possible. - I’ve finished the game already so nothings a spoiler ☺️

[@joeb918]

Here are some details you may have not noticed… You can see that with James, his fingernails get dirtier as the game. Angela’s are clearly bitten. Mary’s last breath can be heard several times throughout the game. If you go into the area where Maria resting in the hospital, the enemies will not follow/attack you. On a poster in the hospital, you can clearly see the word guild, but if you use the read function, it omits it because James himself won’t read it. After you learn the truth, when you save James no longer looks the player in the eye or the camera angle for the save point. James physical appearance changes, bags under his eyes get darker as the game goes on. I don’t think it’s been confirmed, but I think the two of the musical pieces you find tie to two characters. The first translates to Lonely Flower which I think connects to Laura, as she’s lonely in the world. The second translates to Towards the Flame which I think ties in with Angela. Both of these I think also tie into how they see the world of Silent Hill, vs how James sees it. The city itself with its “energies” makes everyone experience something different, for Angela it’s a world on fire, for Laura I think it’s just an empty lonely city. The whole game is a dark story, but this one, oy… the apartment you find Angela in has distorted proportions, which are possibly due to it being skewed because of the perspective of her as a child.

[@joeb918]

*youtube won’t let me edit! For the first one, it’s supposed to end with “as the game goes on.” And on the one I mentioned about the poster, guilt, not guild!

[@Keyndoriel]

Oh, your voice is so comforting. And a streamer actually uses their heart rate monitor! Wonderful!

[@PhoenixNat]

🫶🏼🥰 thank you

[@Bonbonbon739]

I love your gameplay and your sense of humor. Definitely subscribing. here because of algorithm because of my obsession over the remake lol.

[@PhoenixNat]

Thank you so much ☺️ what a kind thing to say 🫶🏼

[@SuperOrkidee]

Love this remake💕✨️

[@PhoenixNat]

It’s SO well done - if they don’t win awards for the sound design I’ll surprised

[@stonecoldku4161]

I couldn't sleep, I got up early this morning and it is really foggy this morning. Sounds like the perfect atmosphere to watch some Silent Hill 2.

[@mrfrye18]

I loved every minute of this remake!!!

[@PhoenixNat]

It really is something else 🤌🏼

[@MysticGaming33]

Hi Nat this is such a brilliant playthrough, it is funny that James will put his hand in holes but he wont use them to open doors lol, the window breaking is a lot of fun, but it is such a great remaster definitely GOTY, hope you have a nice day

[@PhoenixNat]

Mystic, so many hours of best bits again 🤣 I’m glad I can also watch it back now, I can’t stop laughing. Hope you enjoy some background noise with the long vids

[@stonecoldku4161]

10:43 Awesome a well of Kool-Aid...oh that's not Kool-Aid.

[@DigitalSketcher]

Lol the coin puzzle...I felt like I was yelling at my screen, "RADIANT F***KING GROOOOOOOUND! PUT THE DAMN SNAKE ON THE RIGHT!" lol I love those parts of the game where you're trying to figure things out because it's a nice departure from running for your life, sticking your arms in holes your mother would be ashamed of and getting excited when you find the X button to crawl to the next room lol

[@mrfrye18]

got halfway through the video, living through all the creepiness again when all of a sudden.... BANG.... last christmas ad.... 😂 what a relief 😂

[@PhoenixNat]

HA! Santa will give you the warm and fuzzies again 🤣🎅🏼

[@kim.sonder]

algorithm also brought me here. this is such a fun watch and i gotta say the heart rate monitor makes this extra entertaining so thank you for that. 👏🏼😂

[@PhoenixNat]

🙌🏼 praise the algorithm 🙌🏼 it’s been very kind to me with SH. You’re most welcome, it’s actually hilarious seeing how much it flies past 100 💔

[@deighton13601]

I appreciate that as a lets player of this game u don’t talk over the cutscenes like I’ve seen may others do and miss vital game story points

[@PhoenixNat]

Thank you 🫶🏼 I’d never know what’s going on if I wasn’t paying attention!

[@AJSB89]

Flawless remake, the technical and sound level is outstanding.

[@PhoenixNat]

I really hope they bag some awards, they deserve them.

[@DigitalSketcher]

"What the hell is THAT doing here?!" You're gonna ask yourself that a LOT in this game lol

[@stonecoldku4161]

0:42 "Press Any Button To Play" Looks at controller: There isn't any "Any" Button. Well, playthrough is over. I don't have an "Any" button so I can't play.

[@ChannelingSamir]

It's funny how no streamer sees James using his hand pushing the door... He does it, the camera angle tricks you. Anyway, it's good to see you enjoying :)

[@PhoenixNat]

Oh no, i hope you don’t get annoyed, because I spend the next 20 hours taking the piss out of the shoulder shove 🤣🤣

[@ChannelingSamir]

@@PhoenixNat It's okay, just get's bit annoying when you see sth clearly, and even professional gaming journalist(former) - Alanah Pearce doesn't see him using hand and makes jokes of it. But again, no big deal, I just needed to tell you and other viewers how it is ;)

[@sulosky]

I don't know what to think. I have this game unfinished, but I don't dare to continue. Now I don't know if I should watch you play or grow cojones and try it myself.

[@PhoenixNat]

You only get one first play, I’d try savour that for you. The game was very impactful and this experience won’t leave me, I’d want others to have that same feeling too ☺️

[@sulosky]

@@PhoenixNat Thank you, you're the best. I'll give the game another chance :)

[@JohnDWJ]

That was me with the original. It scared me so bad I’d put it down for months at a time. This one, of course, deepens and expands all the horrors from the original. So pace yourself.

[@leightneal9603]

Es divertido como se asusta cuando aún el juego es bastante ..... lindo por decirlo de alguna forma, este es mi juego preferido de toda la historia, es una historia bastante profunda y conmovedora envuelta en un terror que no resulta bruto, sino más bien fino, si se puede decir eso....

[@danielshea518]

You've missed SO much health and ammo by not breaking the vehicle windows in the beginning.

[@Somewheresomehow99]

You get a trophy right at the start if you leave the restroom and immediately try to leave the town before even getting there 😂

[@stonecoldku4161]

18:35 Damn drones

[@frenchmonk94]

This is where the fun begins! 😅

[@PhoenixNat]

“Fun” 🫠 my poor heart

[@mr.vesper5659]

Oh this is gonna be so much fun.

[@PhoenixNat]

Fun for you maybe 😅

[@Keyndoriel]

1:57:50 Oh you're gonna love Angela's story

[@stonecoldku4161]

Yep, you for sure need to wear the heartrate monitor for Arkham Knight.

[@beamertoy]

39:51 “……id you k…..” 😬

[@NitroCigarette]

Ooooh yes *rubs hands menacingly* it's time.

[@PhoenixNat]

😈😈 this game is pure evil 🤣

[@Namelessstew]

Hey I always love seeing new people experience SH2 for the first time. But I do want you to know, that in that scene with pyramid head attacking the mannequin "legs" enemies in the apartments, its be confirmed over and over again by one of the original game directors of SH2 that he isn't doing anything 18+, besides killing it. Its a common misconception/myth that I think detracts from Pyramid heads purpose. Anyways hope this reaches you. Have fun with the riddler.

[@adelbert8981]

I saw Jonesy Spacecat in your chat at the beginning of the vid. If you're friends with her, then you're alright in my book.

[@PhoenixNat]

You did indeed see Jonesy in chat, we’re very good friends ☺️🫶🏼 But that’s such a compliment, I’ll have to tell her

[@stonecoldku4161]

53:18 A "Glasglow Kiss."

[@TheWezoid]

Oooo I was wondering what I'll watch this afternoon. Problem solved. Hope you have fun. I love the original.

[@PhoenixNat]

Wez!! Enjoy, glad I can be some company for you ☺️

[@leightneal9603]

Put your headphones on, þhe sound in this one is so important, y hay muchos detalles sonoros sutiles dentro del juego

[@LUCYJROBYN]

Good morning puzzle queen ❤️

[@PhoenixNat]

Me, eating bowls of puzzle pieces for breakfast like cereal 😂

[@charlesedward5047]

Didn't notice the accent until you said "torch" at the beginning 😅. Algorithm brought me here, will watch. You said that you'll explore "everything", and if you keep playing please explore everything. The OG game and this one were meant to be played exploring all the nooks and crannies. For me personally, I would have gone easy on combat, since this game is story driven. Going easy on combat doesn't deter from the story (nor the scares) at all; it actually makes you focus more on the atmosphere, exploring and the puzzles. And I was right, you were too combat focused in the streets of SH that you missed some great places to explore...and missed soooo many health items. EDIT: Yes! Playing on PS5 with PS controller, the way SH should be played...not on inferior PC. Just for that I've subscribed and liked 😁

[@PhoenixNat]

The controller was where half the fear came from - the heart beat vibrations, and the subtle jumps in the hand, it’s SO good! I do try my best to see ‘everything’ but probably still missed loads 🫣

[@Mr_Flibble716]

Nice slow heart rate through the game, well done.

[@PhoenixNat]

😅 thank you, my poor heart is still recovering

[@Somewheresomehow99]

James is like Leon's older brother 😂

[@PhoenixNat]

💯💯🤣

[@Historyrevenge777]

Odd despite SH2 came out in 2001 long before RE4....

[@joeb918]

Leon was also in Resident Evil 2 which came out in 1998 originally. Where he is supposedly 21 years old. James is 29 in Silent Hill 2, so yes, he is the older brother.

[@leightneal9603]

León no tiene ni 1/10 del desarrollo de personaje de su hermano mayor

[@polar_bearrrrr]

Leon looks like an fancy anime character. James is a broken man desperately searching for his dead wife

[@Catdogomeow]

I think the brightness is a little too low ?

[@joeb918]

The use of fog in the original game was a clever use of hiding game elements so the PS2 wouldn’t be overgrazed, however it also created a sense of unease and of what is beyond what you cannot see. Ironically when they made a remaster (not a remake like this one which also added more the original game) they lessened the fog and it lost a lot of its horror element. It lost that foreboding the fog brings. As far as the game elements looking familiar you. Indeed. Though I think it’s not just limited looking like parts of London, there’s bits and pieces of real world areas, that connect with players all over the world. You probably discovered more in town about where the game is supposedly set, so I’ll hold off, however “Silent Hill” the name itself is somewhat borrowed from a name from a real place in Japan, which translates to “Quiet Hill.”

[@joeb918]

*over taxed not overgrazed… stupid auto correct!

[@PhoenixNat]

Thanks for the context, I love this!

[@LatashaMoore-y7r]

I could listen to you talk for hours 🎶 😌

[@PhoenixNat]

🫶🏼

[@Fullmetal85]

You missed so many items around the city because you can break the windows of certain buildings and cars as well. There's a lot. Just gotta look for them. I had many items by the time i reached Neely's bar. Also if you can hit the enemies from behind they die in 1 hit. 😉

[@LatashaMorra]

You are a genuine nice person ✨️ 💛 💖 💕

[@tr3buh]

this is so great game

[@stonecoldku4161]

Because nothing says Christmas season like Silent Hill? Oh, I get it. You want to give us A Nightmare Before Christmas. Who put you up to this? It was Jack Skellington, wasn't it? Well, jokes on you I'm not going to have any time to watch any of this before Christmas, so no nightmares for me...yet. Haha. I will save these in a Watch Later list, so I will get to them eventually, but I don't have the time for a 4 hour plus videos at the moment.

[@Temple277]

Commenting for the algorithm gods ;)

[@PhoenixNat]

You are very, very kind - thank you for this support ❤️

[@anicesweater8281]

I think I have to play this..

[@PhoenixNat]

YES!!! Do it - the audio is something else when you’re playing, and there’s a lot of haptic feedback stuff for the PS5

[@StreetSoldier975]

HEY WORD UP.. I BUY THIS NEW GAME (3 MONTHS OLD) ON MARKETPLACE LAST NIGHT.. AND I PAYED 35 EURO AND IN THE STORE IT'S FOR 48,99 AND IN THE SHOPS MEDIA MARKT FOR 69 EURO.. I WILL MAKE A MOVIE SOUNDTRACK OF THIS GAME.. HOPE THAT THEY MAKE A MOVIE 'BOUT THIS GAME

[@mnm2188]

This game is truly a masterpiece enjoy

[@PhoenixNat]

Agreed!

[@analogwarriors]

I think I already know which ending you will get. 😅

[@PhoenixNat]

👀 it’s it obviously already? I might do a poll

[@Historyrevenge777]

The eyes reveal so much

[@AomWithers-ez8pv]

are you elizibeth rose bloodflame?

[@themetronomian7239]

YAYAYAYAYY

[@princessmagical]

Definitely play the original Silent Hill 2 also or watch a playthrough, it's even more disturbing and dark and creepy and emotional and has no censorship which this remake does have some censorship. This is a playthrough I sometimes just watch but actually playing it really makes a huge difference and with headphones on. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnjZimmAhJdmqJYsi=GIkbZ4HYn6QL_78_

[@ricman9902]

The remake is better in every possible way, youre just nostalgic.

[@PhoenixNat]

I’d heard this one is slightly different. I’ll check out the old game at some point for a playthrough I think

[@princessmagical]

​@@ricman9902No, there is censorship in this remake and things are watered down. People need to experience both but the original SH2 from 2001 is the true SH2, the true disturbing experience.

[@MAN1CXD]

​@@ricman9902 its definitely not but it is better in some ways
