Post your theories and lets start a discussion on the series.Thx
>>
Origin of Pyramid Head:
When James Sunderland and his wife first came to Silent Hill the visited the Historical Society.There they saw the "Crimson and White Banquet"painting.In the painting you can see members of Valtiel sect.Pyramid head is James ' s subconscious.He is chased through the game.It kills Maria who is a depiction of Mary.He sees himself as a Pyramid head because he was involved with his wife death.Pyramid head is not the default monster of Silent Hill as seen is the movie.It is a part of James and his guilty conscience.It only belongs in Silent Hill 2.

Okay, here's something I've heard some different opinions about...
How long has Mary been dead in SH2?

Some seem to think that it only happened a few days ago (after it's revealed that James' memories aren't to be trusted), but I can't see anything pointing to that.
It'd make more sense for me if the guilt was eating him up for months before he finally "received" her letter.

>>336176041

I think Ito or someone on Team Silent once dropped a hint that alluded to the fact that basically right after Mary died, he put her in the trunk of the car and drove to Silent Hill. But this could be complete bullshit, as I can't remember where the fuck I heard it.
>>
>>336177257
The trunk part was part of a guide (iirc), but I don't know if it was an official statement.

>>336177257

For the In Water ending though, we see James pick up Mary's dead body to take it with him. Doesn't seem to be any implication in the game itself that that's the case.

Then make one, and I wish you luck with that.. But obviously just call it something else if you want to sell it.

It worked for Lone Survivor.

Rebirth was a nice fan game that fulled of the feel in RPG MAKER somehow.

And Alchemilla pulled it off with a puzzle focus and being in first person.

And Banned Memories looks promising from the alpha build/demo.

Others can do it and so can you!

Tribute to SH1 and 2 done in a PS1 style. It's just a short demo for now, but it seems like the dev has more plans for it. And well, after Back in 1995 disapointed me a little bit, I'm extra excited for this one.

Nothing wrong with that! He bloody well destroys the Nurse and mostly just lumbers around after that until you shotgun him to pieces.
He would have been a pretty great persistent enemy. Nemesis-esque even.
>>
>>336180083
The intro/first section of the game is one of my favorite moments playing a game period. I really do think it's worth a try.

oh, something to note is there's an important document in the European and Japanese version of the game but not the U.S. one that really changes people's perceptions of a certain character. So it might be worth looking that up if you aren't getting the PAL version.
>>
>>336179917
The original grey children made me feel just that. I was 9 when I played the game. Imagine looking at one of those things coming at you from the dark, let alone a swarm of them.
If I were in such a scenario and I had a gun on me, I'd just put it against my temple and pull the trigger.
>>
>>336180478
The first time I got my hands on SH, I was far to young. It was a demo disc that I think might have come with a gaming magazine. I tried to play it, oh how I tried. But I was so young that the mere atmosphere made me feel to stressed to continue. The demo was specifically the school, so I must have encountered Grey Children too.

Feels bad knowing that no game will ever have such a visceral effect on me ever again.
>>
Is there any instance where you see the streets of Silent Hill while in the Overworld? I know you get to see a glimpse of it during Silent Hill Revelations and the 2006 movie, but those are very brief and don't show much.

These are not the same Overworld.

>>336180434
>Nemesis-esque even.
It might have been a little derivative of RE, but some Nemesis-like enemies might have really given Silent Hill some much needed flare in its later years.
The ghosty things in The Room sort of provided that experience, but only vaguely. Could've been cool imo
>>
>>336180768
I played the first Resident Evil when I was ~8-9 (with my cousins). After seeing the infamous cutscene with the white zombie devouring the cameraman I instantly switched the game off and prohibited the other two from ever mentioning zombies again. If I saw Silent Hill I'd probably land in a juvenile psychiatric ward.
>>
>>336180293
I just looked it up
http://silenthill.wikia.com/wiki/Neely's_Bar

I always thought it was interesting too because its so vague
>>
>>336180293
There's a bunch of theories on that.
One is that it's literally Mary's pussy not being available to James anymore.
Another is that it relates to SH1, where Harry Mason visits an antique shop and there is literally a hole there (the word BAR is written somewhere else, so it's implied the hole leads to the bar) and afterwards when you visit that same place while being in a place called "Nowhere", the hole has disappeared.
Even another is that it relates to SH4 which has a thematic where you travel about through holes/tunnels, that's got something to do with birthing imagery, but I don't bite that because... retroactive references? Team Silent was good but not time travel, future-seeing good.
>>
>>336180951
Is there an overworld though?

I know in Silent Hill 1, it's explicet that there is none and that what's happening to the town is REAL.

And in 2, everyone sees things differently. That seems more like everyone's own delusions than other dimensions.
>>
>>336180951
Overworld meaning the normal world?
Homecoming has a lot of that. Origins too?
>>
>>336180951
Silent Hill Origins "Otherworld" is pretty much Silent Hill 1's.

Silent Hill 1 has chunks of the game with Harry traversing the otherworld streets of Silent Hill too.

Kojima was, imo, the means of conveying DT's horror concepts. I think it was supposed to be a dual effort. DT has a good eye and mind for Pyscho-horror.
Given how smoothly and involving The Phantom Pain could be, I think they could've made something special.

Brian Bloom was really good as Alex.

I liked some of the locations in the game too
like the Hell's Descent section of the game and I thought the combat had lots of potential and I thought it was fun. Too bad the knife was so overpowered and the dodging mechanic was so fucking inconsistant And the PC port was horrifyingly bad.

I'm actually gonna try to get a friend of mine into SH with Homecoming and Downpour, mostly because he's pretty normie and he doesn't really like old-school horror games but I think he'd still like the newer entries.
>>
>>336183904

I liked that some weapons also worked as items to progress in the game, and that weapons have their strengths and weaknesses against each enemy.

the locations looked very nice for the most part, Hell Descent was great buildup for a good battle. The last part was kind of dull.

I think it was pretty decent

>How long has Mary been dead in SH2?

She likely died a few days prior, considering the "mysterious letter" was just a letter she wrote and asked a nurse to deliver post-mortem. Letters usually take a few days to be delivered, thus the theory that Mary was only dead for a few days.

Also, James says that she died three years ago because that's when she was first diagnosed with the disease. So that's when the old Mary died, basically.

Silent Hill is a fantastic series by the way. The first 3 are untouchable. After that it gets a little more fuzzy, but I didn't out and out hate any of the games that came afterward except Book. And not just because its a different genre but because its full of dumb mechanics like grind INT to not die by 1 hit invisible traps.

Allison Road. I'm guessing it turned out to be trash then. The Clock Tower games any good? Fatal Frame? I tried Haunting Grounds and it was no good.
>>
>>336176041
Laura just turned 8 a few weeks before the game takes place. She has a letter from Mary wishing her happy birthday and telling her how she wanted to adopt her but she can't. So James couldn't have killed her more than a couple weeks prior to the start of the game. It's entirely possible that the reason he is in that bathroom at the start is because he was overwhelmed with guilt on his lonely drive home right after he did it and had to pull over to collect himself.

Siren is probably your best bet if you're after more SH-like stuff. Fatal Frame is also pretty good.

Well, I don't see this (kind of business) as anything other than word-of-mouth stuff, possibly mostly outside the internet.

The sequel is laughably bad, though.

btw, since we're all horror fans here - Dario Argento, the Italian horror director, made a movie called "Phenomena" (starring young Jennifer Connely), which is extremely similar to the first Clock Tower, sans a few details and plot devices. Hell, even the walkway collapse is in it, albeit in a slightly different context. Plus Connely wears clothes eerily similar to those of the main character of the game. They were made 10 years apart (1985 and 1995), but the movie holds up really well.

Basically hell, it operates by reflecting the deep dark schisms that live inside of them and altering the world. The horrors they see are their own darkness manifest with their darkest fears and selves oft times manifesting in greater horrors.
Ala pyramid head.
Worse, if there are more people there or the traumas and emotional pain of a person is strong enough it can bleed into the personal hell of any other people.
People can leave silent hill if they learn to fight their own inner demons and ever come to terms with them or defeat them, thus making them unsuitable for the towns pourposes and they are released.
The aforementioned bleed over throws a monkey wrench in those plans.

The bleed over is also the power behind the cult and why silent hill has gotten worse and more powerful.

Really? I thought the second game was the best. Unlike the original, you can't get lost super easily like in the first on since every room doesn't look the same anymore. PLUS, they seemed to get a lot more creative with the scares in that one. Granted, the graphics look like shit in comparison to the gorgeous sprites of the original but I'm willing to forgive that.
