Beat #SilentHill2 remake! Still super good through the end, few complaints. Cutscene acting is slightly wooden but tbh no worse than the original. Game is much bigger, which is why I'm not 100% sure if I'm going back for all the endings (8 now), I have a lot of other stuff to play.

Can't recommend it enough tho, along with the original.

The #silenthill2 achievement for killing 75 enemies with ranged weapons is titled:

"No Big Deal"

Love games with really thoughtful achievement names.

I finally started to play the Silent Hill 2 remake.

To be honest when this game was announced I had my doubts that Bloober Team could do proper justice to such a classic game. But after almost an hour and a half I can say they delivered it!

The game is scary and does a good job of making you feel like you are alone in a creepy, deserted town.

Also I already lowered the difficulty. Because I am a coward. And reckless. A reckless coward if you will.

Got to Room 312 in #SilentHill2 remake

Chuffed to report "RiTuaL" guy is still in #SilentHill2 remake

I'm high and pyramid head just entered the room

I wanna go home

(I am home)

It's such an odd choice that loading a save in #SilentHill2 remake dumps you into the save menu. I absentmindedly double-save very often and hope there isn't a (typical for silent hill!) ranking system at the end that punishes me for save count

Very impressed by #silentHill2 remake still. Sticks much closer to the original vibe, layout, and story than most of the Resident Evil remakes (which are still good!)

Makes the game a lot harder and more tense--while combat is clumsy and you're sure to take damage in the original, 'difficult' isn't quite what I'd call it either.

Expanding some of the smaller areas of the game wasn't expected and they did it pretty impressively. Puzzles are mostly new too!

Deja Vu bits are a fun addition too

#silentHill2 remake has a lot more Game to it than the original too Tbh which is cool to see

The Prison and Labrith are full-sized dungeons like the Hospital and Apartments (which also felt longer, though that may just be because the layout/puzzles are all different so I couldn't speedrun through)

The cutscenes are slightly meh but otherwise I have very few complaints, impressive stuff. "Modern" in the good ways, gameplay very tense. James still feels like a Normal Guy.

#SilentHill2 remake is still great into the Labyrinth

Holy shit the Flesh Lip is hard in #SilentHill2 remake, way harder than the original (much more interesting fight too). Playing on Hard, it ate almost all of my ammo total and a few health items too

Wow, #silentHill2 Nurses are HARD on hard combat difficulty. Like use a gun or take MULTIPLE hits, brutal. I like it! Very effective difficulty IMO, has that "you WILL be harmed" vibe of the original but not an action game

Each encounter feels tense and I can feel the relief when they're over. Had someone compare it to modern resi games, can't agree, not beyond "it controls well" I suppose

#SilentHill2 remake's difficulty has been near-perfect so far (easier if you master the dodge, I'm sure)

I constantly have 0-2 health items, just like a first playthrough of the original. Getting lost, there's real puzzles.

There's no tank controls or forced camera angles, but that's about it, it's closer to the spirit of the original than I'd have expected.

Just met Pyramid head

I'm SO glad #SilentHill2 remake rocks

I'm so fucking tired of Hide-And-Go-Seek, Amesia-style horror games

Instant death kills tension

Fighting can be scarier than running

I don't want your fucking Pages

Disasters: Had
Disasters: Handled!
Not letting it ruin my day.

Next pressing item: #SilentHill 2 remake! It's great! I'm honestly very impressed.
I'm in the Appartments. No PH yet.
