It always amuses me when people claim Eddie is a monster when all he did was kill dog

It’s about self forgiveness.

When Judas hangs himself, he is condemned to hell not because of his betrayal, but because he believed he could not be redeemed through repentance.

It's not a therapy town that wants to treat you, it's a dark malevelent energy that wants to destroy them. James is the exception to the rule, rather than the rule. You see notes and other bodies of people who seem to have been sucked in as well and are also dead.

Eddie made his choices. He was in some hot water, but had anger issues and self-esteem issues. The darkness created monsters and beings who mocked him until he got over his hesitation to kill and embraced it.

Similarily, Angela sought solace and was tormented by her past, and decided to give up.

James in Leave overcomes his obstacles and decides to leave.
>>
>>719443841
Eddie snapped and was gonna kill James and there's no telling what would happen if he met Laura again. I do think they should have added another character who existed just to get killed by Eddie or something. Or maybe have him whack Angela?

Eddie spends the game killing Maria like figures who are created by the town's magic whose sapience is questionable at best.

You sure about that?

He is clearly alive... Can't be him.

Eddie wasn't a monster because he killed a dog and shot a bully in the leg, he was a monster because he ran to Silent Hill and let it turn him into a monster.

Silent Hill is deeply evil. It wasn't punishing James, Eddie and Angela because it wants to redeem them, it's punishing them because it's evil and wants to destroy them. Whether or not they are "beyond redemption" (or in Angela's case, did anything wrong at all) is irrelevant. Eddie and Angela weren't strong enough to escape, and James is only able to get away in one ending out of six.

that ending is just mocking and parodying people making crazy theories about what is going on in the town.

I wish Sh2 had been more popular on release. They clearly were setting a bunch of historical events up to explore in other games, which were then completely dropped.

The general idea they were going for, and more or less allude to in SH2, is that Silent Hill is some kind of well spring for spiritual energy that the natives knew about. But a whole series of catastrophes and pain and suffering poisoned that energy so it's all negative energy.

Not really, Angela and Eddie represent the two extremes James can go down when dealing with his own guilt. Eddie accepts no guilt for his actions what so ever. Angela accepts all the guilt, even for things she really shouldn't.

What James did was bad enough to warrant being in a timeloop for 2 decades and dying a bunch of times btw

THANK YOU

I was waiting for that.

>>719448620
Who the fuck shaves on their bed?
>>
>>719448612
I have to assume so
>>
>>719448620
I just want to point out this is the only instance of a woman shaving her pits in all of gaming. literally 50 years of video games, and this common occurance has only been depicted once.

>>719448889
Eileen for one. If it's just a quick trim, then there's only a bit you need to wash off in the sink.

>>719443768
None of them were irredeemable.
Silent hill does not arbitrate morality, it simply torments.
They just lacked the strength to confront what happened to them, and internally resolve it.

Eddie and Angela allowed their trauma to consume them fully.
And so it warped, and ultimately destroyed them.
>>
>>719446767
What's wrong with malice?
Some of the greatest of mankind's accomplishments were inspired by spite and malice.
>>
>>719448620
>shaving dry on the bed
lunatic behavior
>>
So, Silent Hill was once a scared place to the native american tribe that lived there and it was a pretty chill place where you went soul searching. Then the white man showed up and ruined everything?
>>
>>719443768
>>James can have a daughter-wife ending
what do you mean by this
>>
See, the point is, Eddie killed a guy, and a dog, basically solely out of paranoia and a persecution complex but he refuses to admit his own guilt. It's why it's also implied whatever the town does barely affects him, it's why he's able to just sit there and eat pizza and the only reason he eventually dies there is because he starts a fight with James. He's objectively the most guilty out of the three.

Angela killed her abuser because she couldn't take it anymore. She is the least guilty out of them but also the one who feels the most guilty and the one most affected by the towns curse. Which is why whe eventually succumbs to it.

James is the one who could go either way. He wasn't justified in what he did the way Angela was and a big part of his arc is facing the fact that he didn't kill Mary out of sympathy or to put her out of her suffering but because he couldn't live with the burden of caring for her anymore. So he's the only one who has the potential to work through his guilt and forgive himself.

>malice
didn't he do it as a reaction to being bullied (in part by the jock)?
obviously not the best reaction, but thats not sadism or pure malice per se, but a lashing out at genuine wrongs (albeit, overkill)

Eddie is like 28 and he confronted his literal high school bully with a gun, shot his dog dead and shot the guy in the leg.

>I always assumed the endings where he leaves lead to James turning himself in to police.

no way. We actually get a canon answer: James and Mary vanished after their Sh trip. That's open ended and becomes compatible with all the endings. Leave he just hops town with Laura, keeping low and gets a new life and identity. Or in the water obviously. Maria is he leaves with the demon spawn whore.

I dobut they'd even conduct an autopsy. A pillow smothering doesn't leave visible traces on the neck.

...so much for accepting responsibility.
>>
>>719458362
Mary literally tells him to move on and to stop beating himself up. In the good ending which is Leave he does just that.
>>
>>719458465
Yeah, and therefor accepts his fate of prison.

James could have spent a few hundred on an escort and he would have never have to go to silent hill. crazy to me that the moral of the story is to cheat on your dying sick wife so you don't end up in hell.

Why Eileen Shaves Her Armpits on the Bed:

Intimacy and Vulnerability:
The fact that Eileen is shaving her armpits on the bed adds an intimate and vulnerable element to the moment. Unlike the more common setting of a bathroom, doing this task in a private, personal space like a bed subtly adds a layer of vulnerability to the scene. It reflects a kind of quiet, ordinary activity in an otherwise nightmarish world.

Breaking the Illusion of Normalcy:
This seemingly mundane act—shaving—adds to the tension between the ordinary world and the horror surrounding the characters. By performing this in such an unusual space (on her bed, as opposed to a more conventional location like a bathroom), it creates a sense that even the smallest of personal moments are disturbed by the supernatural events unfolding around her. It subtly hints that nothing is safe in Silent Hill’s twisted reality.

Symbolism of Care and Control:
The act of grooming oneself, even in such a private and strange setting, could be seen as an attempt at maintaining control over one’s body and life. Throughout the game, Eileen is in a vulnerable position, both physically and emotionally, as she becomes increasingly entangled in the horrific rituals and events related to Walter Sullivan. This scene could symbolize her attempt to hold onto some semblance of personal agency amidst the chaos, despite how much she’s losing control over her circumstances.

Characterization and Contrast:
Eileen is one of the few characters in Silent Hill 4 who represents a form of normalcy and humanity. While Henry is trapped in his apartment and disconnected from the outside world, Eileen’s grooming routine might show her attempting to maintain some connection to her identity, her femininity, and the outside world. The fact that she’s doing this while being so close to Henry adds a sense of co-dependence and relationship to their interaction, even though Henry is largely powerless in her fate.

Angela and eddie aren't real, neither is laura. They are all manifestations of the crimson one, yes SH2 has a 3 deep 4 u story if you read between the lines. All the weird little details that don't add up to the 'official story' point to the real one where james is in purgatory and is being fucked with by the crimson one over and over again.
