Silent Hill Heaven

Maybe this is just me, but I feel like changing James' age changes his characterization. It's easier to sympathize with a young guy who's just coming into himself snapping after three years of torment. He married too young to fully comprehend the weight of his vows. The happy times with Mary couldn'...

So... That was it? I can't help but be a little disappointed. In my opinion it started out bad, then it got so bad that it was funny, then it picked up and became genuinely intriguing, and then it kind of fizzled out into nothing. Honestly, committing to being a meme would probably be a better decis...

Agreed. I actually enjoy coming up with theories and speculating about what's going to happen next. It's far from perfect, but it feels like there's momentum, and that the writers know where they're going with it. Also, Rachel is the best girl and I'm rooting for her. Sure, it's all kind of cobbled...

I think more than any game in the franchise that the Room needs a remake, no, a reimagining even. That's what I was thinking since the SH2 remake was announced. SH4 had such a strong start, but then the second half of the game happens. It deserves some love and care that a "soft" reimagin...

I think Arsonist might be talking about it being connected narratively - that is, textual connections to canon. Thanks. That's exactly what I meant. There are plenty of SH clones out there, dealing with difficult themes, or ripping off the aesthetics. Some do it very well. What makes Short Message ...

Might as well post my thoughts here. Good: The environments all look amazing, the whole paper/paint based otherworld idea is really cool and well executed. Wish they double downed on it instead of reverting to SH:Movie aesthetic in chapter 3. Don't get me wrong, it looked nice, just not very origina...

I'm with shoe on this. That doctor's note in SH2 suggests that people can "partly" enter the otherworld, with their actual bodies still being in reality. This phenomena being noticed and/or described in SH could be enough of a reason to give it that name. And we see this happen in other ga...

So, uhhh... Things are certainly happening. I'd take some pride in calling it early that the Norwegian family is hated because of a mass shooting committed by what's her face, the weird girl only Karl sees. But I feel like it was telegraphed pretty hard and pretty early. I mainly want to talk about ...

I am infinitely amused by the fact that two small children are missing for days, possibly dead, and their families just don't seem to give a fuck anymore. Karl and Eric are caught up in their blossoming romances, and Rachel is freaking out over her cult's politics. Harry would NEVER. Astrid is the o...

Nope. Which means I never get to see/participate. It's so annoying... I haven't checked in over a week, so take it with a grain of salt: But there were very few endure scenarios while I was actively watching. Like two or three. So besides the cool monsters and environments, you're not missing much....

Then there's a question about why Lisa stays in that room. I think it was said that if she left the room she would know the truth that she's dead, but why is she the only one who doesn't realize it for awhile? My memory is fuzzy on this, but wasn't there a theory that Alessa was using Lisa as a mea...

That's fair. People have perpetually disliked my theories for a long time. :( You can take comfort in knowing that every person posting about SH's timeline or doing a "SH history, explained" videos are straight up ripping you off 90% of the time. You did fantastic work, and created a cont...

Don't get me wrong, the logic behind the theory is perfectly sound. I just arbitrarily don't like it :D . The only two holes I have to poke at aren't that strong. Questioning how Kaufmann avoided the same fate, and pointing out that Lisa's transformation is unlike anything we've seen. And hell, I ca...

Great find. It always bugged me how little characterization poor Cheryl got, it's nice to see her show some of Heather's snark. Also, how many possible causes of death does Lisa have at this point? *Suicide, as implied by the booklet. *OD, I'm not positive, but I think that's what Ito stated on his ...

I had higher hopes for it. With very little marketing and vagueness surrounding it before its release, I was expecting something far more experimental. Instead, we got a standard telltale game experience, but worse. I won't go too much into criticism, as there is a bunch of critics currently making ...

My guess? The kid Murphy is seeing is Murphy, his mom and possibly his sister were killed, probably with a hammer. "Momma, look at me momma." He took revenge on the murderer, or a person who he thought was the murderer so he ended up in jail. "Revenge is a long, treacherous road, mist...

it doesn't look like there'll be a ton of main characters. We have Murphy, the Postman, the Female guard/officer, and the town loony. I've said nothing about "main" characters. Just characters in general. So far we've seen: -Murphy -Cunningham -Blackwood -Boy -Girl -Nun -JP -Handlebars pr...

^ I noticed that when the bus starts moving, it's raining. But before that, there's no signal of rain Thanks. I missed that. Could be just weird weather though. The guy on the bus kinda looks like a fat Alex Sherpherd lol Haha! I cannot unsee it now. Strange, I always did imagine Alex becoming a co...

Keep in mind Alan Wake was inspired by Silent Hill. Doesn't make much sense to say Silent Hill is now being inspired by Alan Wake. Silent Hill: The Movie was inspired by the Silent Hill series, but that didn't stop Silent Hill: Homecoming from using its otherworld, environments, details, monsters a...
