Rather, the real question is why we are unable to make terrifying horror characters that become iconic anymore.
>>
>>719554997
Same reason we've not had any sort of iconic musicians, films nor games come out from any of the industries since the early 00s:

Talentless hacks are just "ironically" referencing other products, instead of inventing anything new, cool and/or profound.
Not to mention whenever someone gets close to achieving such art, the ADHD iPhone toddlers call it "pretentious" or "boring".
>>
>>719554997
because horror is fundamentally based on mystery, but ppl nowadays hate mistery and plot construction, believe me I have watched movies with people who searched for the ending just to feel safe and know what was going to happen

But Silent Hill takes a lot of inspiration from Lynch and other stuff
>>
>>719555696
Taking inspiration is not the same as literally parodying another product with a hint-hint nudge-nudge style. That is akin to the "Why hello, fellow children!" posing.

SH literally started off as a Stephen King's "The Mist" license game, but was then retooled into its very own experience and world, only taking inspirations from other products.

Yada yada, nothing's truly original, but you can actually try to me sincere and push beyond the "good enough", not stop with "well this is what we did the last time...". Such lazy mentality caused the 15+ years worth of SH2-wannabe Westoid Silent Hill games, that are still happening to this day

Nothing is more scary than being WATCHED
>>
>>719551727
Because it doesn't want to kill James, it wants to rape James, Pyramid Head is the symbolism of prison rape.

it doens't want to rape james, ph keeps james on the right track, he's a guide
