[@brentcrobarger7872]

59:35 "There was a hole here, it's gone now." is a mystery that the community has gone on about for ages. My interpretation is that another SH protagonist jumped down a hole here at some point, but now it's vanished. Not terribly in depth, but I like that Reggie recognizes how ominous this message is.

[@BareBandSubscription]

I always just thought it was some deranged, cryptic shit that was meant to be taken very literally. Somehow, a hole was there and now it’s gone. It’s the idea of an absent absence. It creates a weird sort of cognitive dissonance, like any clear understanding of that idea is completely elusive. That was my initial gut response to it. The question of who wrote it is also just very eerie. I hope whoever came up with that text at Team Silent got a raise or something, because it’s so perfectly unsettling, it’s actually kind of genius.

[@apocalypticbanana12]

I like thinking it has something to do with SH4, but I also wonder if it has some kind of psychosexual connotation

[@terukisuke5324]

I like the theory I heard that it's a metaphor for feeling an emptiness, but you fill it with alcohol, so the hole becomes "gone." Since it's a bar, it makes sense. And it would represent what James would do while in the throes of depression. Side note but I've been having a lot of fun taking this quote out of context to the point where it became a meme between my friend and I, and he doesn't even know much about Silent Hill lol. (On Wednesday) "There was a Tuesday here, it's gone now."

[@BlinJe]

I just love it being unexplained. and quirky. I feel no need to explain it at all. the capitalisation helps too. There was a HOLE here, it's gone now. youze can meet me at Bar Neely's. Now and forever.

[@cthulhuhoops]

i always thought it meant there was a way to escape, but it's gone, meaning james can no longer leave. especially since there is a personal message to james in that bar later, after the hospital.

This game is, for games, what Citizen Kane or Singing in the Rain are for movies. Just an all-time 10/10 perfect game, that you can still go back to today and enjoy.

[@MrStath1986]

I feel like this one has a lot of emotional maturity and depth that a lot of games - even the other games in the series - simply don't have. The series' reference point in film is always Jacob's Ladder, and I think SH2 stands opposite that movie in terms of how well it talks about death and grieving and acceptance of those things, and the long, difficult journeys through them. I also don't think I've ever seen anything else in a game that's as utterly heartbreaking as Angela's final scene and how it plays on our hopes and expectations for how we as players want things to go.

[@exaIgnus]

Silent Hill 2 is good because you can know all the key points of the plot, and honestly you can pretty much guess what's going on by the hospital, and still get blown away by actually experiencing things. I'm going to comment on stuff as it happens, though. A game that starts with your player character staring in the mirror is never a good indication of their state of mind. But James is probably fine! Sucks that Mary died from Anime Mom Disease. She didn't even get the chance to get a kid, like Harry's wife. Real bad luck. I like how the map fits together. Do you think that North and South Silent Hill have a rivalry? I love the fact that on the walk to Silent Hill you can hear footsteps that aren't yours. And when you stop the footsteps stop too, like they were following you and trying to stop when you notice them. The conversation with Angela is interesting. I like the insight that it gives you into James. James seems distracted from the conversation, really stuck in his own head. But I feel like he makes an effort to be social. He doesn't just blow people off. I think James is, at heart, an okay guy.

[@buttermilk5364]

Is anime mom disease cancer?

13:24 - .............................................. woolie, that's..... the open toilet stall door. FIRST ROOM OF THE GAME, NOTHING IN HERE (until new game+), and *HE'S ALREADY GETTING LOST.*

That's a quick turnaround Woolz. I just purchased this game yesterday. I hope I can deal with those control scheme though.

Here we go! My favorite Silent Hill. Hopefully this port is good. So much symbolism in this game.
