forget f, remakes, etc. let’s just talk about 1-4. >Favorite game?>Favorite character (outside of the protagonists)>Favorite song?Thread themehttps://youtu.be/eUCi3DEEvlc
>>722569016Hello
The game with the best gameplay, puzzles, easter eggs, environment, graphics is my favorite - Silent Hill 3Walter, including the protagonists. The protagonists really aren't all that interesting.None of the music is any good. Yeah I fucking said it. Yamaoka is the most overrated man in vidya next to Kojima.
>>722569969>The protagonists really aren't all that interesting.Huh? You can make that argument for Harry & Henry but definitely not for James & Heather.
>>722569016>it's drugs
>>722569969>None of the music is any goodwrong>Yamaoka is the most overrated man in vidya next to Kojimatrve
>>722569016I love 1 cause I played it first. Shit like the scene of Lisa staggering towards Harry as she bleeds more and more stuck with me.Cybil because she made my peepee hard. (Only other girl I can remember doing that to me was Lulu in FF10)Not tomorrow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDgjTP8fuz4

>>722569016>Favorite game?SH3>Favorite character (outside of the protagonists)Despite his game being hit-and-miss, Walter>Favorite song?Letter from the Lost DaysI really enjoyed SHf, 9/10.
>>722571526Who has time for tears?
>>722571660>I really enjoyed SHf, 9/10.What is wrong with you, even if you ignore the story and the writing the gameplay is horrible.
Is everyone on /v/ afraid to say that og 2 is their favorite?
>>722571712What's so bad about it?
>>722571712I disagree with you. No, I will not elaborate.
>>722569016>Favorite game?2>Favorite character (outside of the protagonists)Cybil. It's nice to meeting someone who is equally confused and inquisitive in an otherwise lonely game>Favorite song?Theme of Laura (reprise)
>>722571791Terrible writing, characters and level design, poor combat and creature design. 2/10 game
>>722571660Is it even really silent hill or is it just "we slapped the name on it for marketing"?
>>722572145It's not silent hill, at all. The combat is horrendous and it feels like it was designed wrong.. as a joke. Pirate if you want, shit sucks.
>>722571787yeah we're contrarian here. people saying 1 is their favourite will also disappear once that remake comes out
>>722569969Picrel is a 10/10 album even if you don't know it's a video game OST. I really don't understand why you think SH music sucks.
only played the original. I remember it being pretty easy once you get used to the melee. some of the puzzles were brutal though. still need to replay it again to get the good ending.
I'm playing Silent Hill f
>>722571787Redditors and zoomers are fucking disgusting and mentally ill , we are probably trying to avoid having a conversation with them but OG2 is a great game the entire og trilogy are great games don't get it twisted tranny.
>>722572145Already comes with the letter f
>>722572417kek
>f trannies already making the thread about them even though this is specifically for the original games
>>722572145The white flowers that are hinted to make the drugs are apparently the same used to make the drugs that Lisa is addicted on SH1, also there's a notebook stating that they where brought to Japan back in the day by some missionary.Besides that the game don't relate to the other games at all.
>>722572536It's a good game
demake 2
>>722572595It’s not even a good horror game
>>722572696I think you're just developmentally challenged and that's okay
>>722572696It's not a good game
>>722572724You have to be developmentally challenged to like f.
>>722572724No, there are at least three people in this thread telling you that the game sucks ass and everyone agrees.
>>722572769Yeah but they are wrong so it's okay
>>722571787SH1 has been my favourite for over 20 years now.And I say this as someone who had a HUGE crush on SH2 during my teenage years.
>>722572120>I cant say anything specific about it because I havent played it new badok
>>722572928NTA but I’ll back-up his opinion. The game is fucking shit.
>>722569016I think its fine for things to end, being realistic there were only so many games they were gonna get out of the concept of weird ligottian town. It being a town itself limits it since SH is clearly not that big of a place. The concept of now expanding it, makes sense but at the same time the people making the new games dont get Silent Hill, so for me its fine that original Silent Hill ended, it was never gonna go forever and 4 games out of such an artsy fartsy horror series was quite a lot. Its now up to other devs to pick up the mantle and make new games inspired by it.fav gameeither 3 or 4, weird choice i knowfav characterI think Henry, i like his "i really just wanna get out of here" attitudefav songLisas Theme, such a great and sad scene
>>722573124The only thing I wanted was just a remake of 4 and then the series can stay dead forever. Unfortunately they’re going to butcher the first and third game instead just like 2 remake. 4 had the most room for improvement and experimentation.
>>722570314>Cybil and LuluBased taste.
Playing SH4 for the first time using the Steam006 patch. It seems to stretch the image though. I see there's a ThirteenAG patch for proper widescreen but it's not compatible with Steam006's patch. What do?
>>722573616I don’t know I just played the gog version and it was fine
>>722573616Never mind. Figured it out. Had to use the developer build instead. Sweet.
>>722574190Didn’t they include widescreen support and the missing apartment haunts just a few months ago?
>>722573616I'd honestly recommend just emulating the PS2 versionThe PC port of 4 is complete dogshit
>>722574369What’s wrong with the current gog version?
>>722569016>favourite game?3, it was my first and Heather is precious>favourite characterVincent is just like me, intelligent, nihilistic, with a wicked sense of humour.>favourite songTheme of Laura, but I like most of the music
>Silent Hill 2 PC gets a massively autistic fan made patch/revamp that stays as true to the original assets and effects as possible>3 gets like one fan patch and that's it >Audio is still fucked on PC for most of the guns>Shadows are worse than the PS2 version
>>722571660>that spoilerMe too, actually.But I'm a Higurashi and Umineko fan so I was cooked from the start.fs best moments remind of why I liked 3 and why I got into the series in the first place
>>722574545I would simply own Silent Hill 1-4 physically and keep a slim PS2 around so I can play them as they were meant to be experienced, but that's just me.
>>722574589Fuck you and fuck shf
>>722573616And never mind again. The game crashes on certain screens.>>722574305The missing hauntings, yes. But no widescreen. Might just ditch Steam006 altogether and just go with the widescreen patch. Failing that, whatever. I'll just play vanilla GOG.
>>722574683Don’t even need to own them physically. Having a ps2 with an hdd attached with every game known to man is enough. That way you don’t have to spend scalper prices and can still enjoy them on original hardware. I used to own 1-4 but lost them all over the years through multiple moves and generally just being careless.
1>3=2=4
>>722569016>Silent Hill oh discussion thread >Includes The Room*Tirsk*
>>722569016Favorite game is 1 - its clearly the best but have a huge soft spot for 4, all 4 make my top 100 gamesFavorite character is EileenFavorite Song is simply Silent Hill
>>722569969>None of the music is any good. Yeah I fucking said it. Yamaoka is the most overrated man in vidya next to Kojima.Worst take I've seen on /v/ in months.
>>722572238YES
>>722569016Harry Mason is the only Silent Hill protag whose psyche didn't twist Silent Hill into a horror show
>>722574812>Having a ps2 with an hdd attached with every game known to man is enough. That way you don’t have to spend scalper prices and can still enjoy them on original hardware.BBBBBBASED
>>722574714>story and atmosphere are good>gameplay is jankIf that's not silent hill, I don't know what is
>>722574812True, pirating is good fuck the scalpers and greedy companies. I was mostly flexing because I managed to keep my copies and I literally moved to Japan with all of my belongings in only two boxes, it's just that my SH copies were so important to me that I made room for them
>gameplay is jankGameplay works as intended though, you explore, you solve puzzles you move on, the combat is irrelevant. >but but muh dodgeslopPlay God Hand it's 100% pure gameplay and it's incredible>noooooooooooooooooooo janky jankyok so you are retarded gotcha *yawn*
>>722575158Old sh games aren’t jank. They’re serviceable and simple but not jank.
>>722575158>>722575339this is an og threadyou want to talk about your shit slop you go to one of the 36 other shilling threads currently active
Silent Hill Homecoming is actually the best SH, not because of "horror", but because our guy gets the girl.
>>722575321Yeah the prices are absolutely insane now. Crazy because physical silent hill games aren’t even that rare. Scalperniggers went absolutely ballistic during covid.
Favorite Game is 3, with 4 being a close second. Favorite Character that isn't the protag is CybilFavorite song is Theme of Laura. End of Small Sanctuary is high up there for me too though.
I like 3 and there’s no doubt it’s a classic but I felt like it was the weakest out of the 4 games.
>>722575484mega based
>>722575718the combat of 3 actually feels worse than the first two games to me. it's hard to describe but it feels less chunky and consistent
I have my ps & ps2 but don’t have a crt anymore what the fuck do I do? This retrochink scaler shit is a gorillan dollars. God I wish modern displays supported 4:3 240i/240p.
>>722575718That's 4 for me. I was never able to finish it and the first person segments made my blood pressure sky rocket in a not-scary way. Fuck that game.
>>722576185Kek why did it get your blood pressure high
>>722569016>Favorite game?Silent Hill 1, it has the best atmosphere and environments. >Favorite character (outside of the protagonists)Walter Sullivan
>>722576720Objectively correct on all counts
>>722572145Its a soulslike not a horror game. I remember when everyone flipped shit over book of memories being a dungeon crawler spin off on a handheld nobody bought. I'm assuming all the original fans have abandoned the series
>>722569016It's still 2Cybil my belovedAny track that feels surreal. Most of SH2's ost is like that, but 3 has some really good ones too that start or, at some point, resemble normal songsI think most horror games need to capture the "comfy" feeling that most of the sh games give you
Would shattered memories be elite if it had combat instead of constant autismo running? There’s almost no tension when you’re not in a telegraphed running segment because nothing attacks you outside of them.
>>722576926Stealth would've made more sense, plus a very small escape sequence at the end
>>722576906Every horror game is shit to me compared to sh 1-4. I keep buying survival horror games hoping to find the same dopamine hit but it’s like chasing the dragon. They’re either not scary enough or the story is lame, sometimes both. I think the closest I got to the feeling was the suffering 1&2.
>>722576185The first person segments control fine and one of the best parts of the game
>>722577076They need to start earning the scary factor by contrasting it with comfy/quiet moments. Walking through clean, empty, almost liminal spaces but then flipping the whole thing and make it oppressive is always a good tool and not many games do that
How exactly do you get the Eileen shaving scene anyway? I replay 4 every 5 years or so and never saw it.
>>722576103Get a GBS-C from AliExpress. It's a perfectly good enough scaler. Just be sure to switch from bob deinterlacing to adaptive deinterlacing to save your eyes.
>>722574856>ryukishi07 fans attacking 4 to try and justify their roll slop
>>722577471Any particular brand you recommend? I’m seeing a bunch of different ones. Thanks anon.
>Favorite song?Kaufmann's Themehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdjxiRhN584
>>722570059james is not interesting the slightest
>>722569016I've just played ONE (1), the original.I missed the red liquid. Sad.It was a good game, I have to play the rest. The aesthetics and sound design were excellent.
this is the third silent hill thread ive seen without eileen shavingdid she die bros?
>>722578932>she
>>722578932Heroes never die
>>722569016I've only played SH1 so far, it was back in 2022 or '23. I'm hoping to get around to playing SH2 this year, hopefully it'll emulate well. It would be a shame to have a game that relies heavily on atmosphere get boned by graphical bugs.I was blown away by 1 having dynamic cameras and walking while shooting.
>>722579542>I'm hoping to get around to playing SH2 this year, hopefully it'll emulate well.You don't need to emulate SH2 - 4.They all got legit PC ports 25 years ago.Download them, patch them up with the fan mods (ie. the SH2 Enhanced Edition), and boom : perfect, uncensored 4K 120fps UHD "remasters", with zero glitches nor censorship:https://pastebin.com/uf5XhyXzAnd yes, you can still keep things at 480p 30fps if you want.>was blown away by 1 having dynamic cameras and walking while shooting.That was a HUGE thing back in the day.I literally recall chatting with my buddies at the school yard how cool and new it was to have a steel pipe as a weapon.
