so why the town changed it's nature between 1 and 2? In 1 it wasn't your personal purgatory
It wasnt yours, it was Alessa's nightmare.
>>744717749>so why the town changed it's nature between 1 and 2?Because SH1 happened and cracked the town's natural powers to sort-of overdrive.>In 1 it wasn't your personal purgatoryNeither is it in SH2. This is what the iPhone era secondaries always fail to understand.The logic is exactly the same as in SH1, except instead of everyone being engulfed in a singe mega psi-projection, everyone does their own mini projections when they're in the town.here's teh SH PC Guide pastebin:https://pastebin.com/uf5XhyXz
>>744717887And then origins comes along and half the monsters are based off travis and the other half allessa making very little sense
>>744717749because SH2 is a dogshit spinoff
our guy who i follow explained and analyzed the entire narrative in just 90 seconds lol. Its reupload for some reason. https://youtu.be/r7_wvw-X3M0also this is on the money. i cant believe theres someone who actually played the games here >>744720960
>>744717749It was an intentional shift to make those who played 1 intrigued on how the town is functioning now. Storywise, Silent Hill just has a perpetual evil that attracts and torments people with darkness in their hearts whenever a ritual is not taking place.
>>744717749>we made a game about a third party's psychic manifestations...>what if we had the character you're playing have manifestationsthat's the answer to your question. team silent wanted to explore the otherworld from a different vantage point and just rolled with it.
>>744717749Literal spin off, imagine going from based Harry Mason saving his daughter from demons possibly getting together with Cybil wanting to see how it plays out in the sequel and then you meet................James. I'd be mad af, thank God for SH3.
>>744721698it's a natural intermission. the first game ends with you adopting a baby, taking a detour during a time skip makes sense.
>>744721325meh. It's not the same. I like my DEEP analysis to be 6 hours long, read in a monotone voice while the narrator keeps going in circles and re-explaining the most obvious stuff
>>744717749>why the town changed it's natureGood morning sir
>>744717749Because the Silent Hill games' essence is not the lore, but the chase for horror for the sake of horror. If the dev team felt they needed to change the nature of the town for their new project in order to keep exploring those sensations, of course they would do that.
1 is better
>>744725463SH1 is such a gem in great part because of the hardware limitations and how much it manages to achieve within those constraints and visuals.Precisely why the idea of a remake seems particularly offensive to me. I just would like the game to remain avaliable.
>>744726142holy shit what a hot takedo you people not get tired of making the same exact posts like a npc
>>744717749Cause devs said so
>>744721602>Storywise, Silent Hill just has a perpetual evil that attracts and torments people with darkness in their hearts whenever a ritual is not taking place.Incorrect. The town has no morality or its own desires. It's just a passive projector, showing what's inside people's own mind. Through a very twisted lens.
>>744721030Origins isn’t a very highly regarded entry in the series.
>>744727280NTA, but why are you spazing out like a retard? No one has asked for any of ghe recent UE5 demakes that play like the Homecoming and censor the fuck out of the content. Being against the availability of older vidya is also suspicious as hell.
>>744728760because i'm tired of seeing the same white bread opinion in all sh discussionsh1 is good because of bad graphicsi hope the remake didn't existi want to play the og ones on steamyou guys are literal npcs constantly saying these like anyone thinks otherwise(except the remake part)
>>744728760>censor the fuck out of the content.First time I heard this. What was censored in the Silent Hill remakes?
>>744730675They think PH was raping the mannequin in his intro(Ito said this wasn't the case 4 years before the remake and the movements from the OG are still the same in sh2r)
>>744717749>In 1 it wasn't your personal purgatoryIt literally was the ending was the guys dying mind making shit up.
>>744721030nothing after sh4 is canon
>>744730925>4 years before the remakeTry thirteen.
>>744732153It's just way too funny that SH2 cultists think they know better than him and don't have the brain to make the difference between a rape scene and a scene made sexual to disturb you
>>744731317Thats considered a bad ending.
