Re: Does maria ruin the game?

Pyramid Head is not raping the monsters, he is just abusing them to show his dominance. The designers state in the making of that they made it look suggestive as a way of disturbing the player. That's all it is, suggestive. The reason it stops early on is the shock factor would have worn off very qu...

Re: Does maria ruin the game?

I believe Mary left a strong enough impression on the town when she was there on her honeymoon. She clearly had some kind of affinity to the energy there from how much she loved the place. Definitely enough for her to leave psychic echos in the place long after she left. Perhaps it was her overwhelm...

Re: The Apartments

I always thought it looked kind of similar to the butterfly room what with the single bed and all.
To be honest it is kind of hard to tell what with all the black and white and static.

Re: The Apartments

Sorry to necrobump again, but I believe the apartments to be where James killed Mary. Mary's dress with the light, dead James watching t.v, the room with all the butterflys and moths. This is also where we can hear the whispering that sais "see my dead wife, do the laundry to get some peace, pu...

Re: Theory based on how Rebirth could have panned out.

I would have tried the whole "Well it turns out there was a cure" thing. As long as Mary went along with it you would assume all their family and friends would be too overjoyed she was well again to start nitpicking over details.

Re: Does maria ruin the game?

well, the thing with maria is that she looks like Mary, but isn't. That's what James pretty much says in some endings. And then Maria gets angry and tries to kill him. After all, as much as she looks like Mary, Mary is dead, and nothing can change that (except in Maria ending, of course). I guess p...

Re: Theory based on how Rebirth could have panned out.

Ah I see, I thought it was the rebirth ritual that suddenly created his own world, it has been a fair few years since I last played SH4, I just thought the first 10 killings were necessary for the whole Descent of the Holy Mother part, not for creating his whole world aswell. Maybe it just gets all ...

Re: Who did Alessa kill?

I believe she always had powers, the "powers would almost never manifest themselves" bit I think means that she just chose never to use them, and wouldn't choose to use them if she hadn't been burned.
Being pregnant with god just amplified them and made her immortal.

Re: Prison Monster Theory

Yes that does happen, I just played this part last night :). I'm pretty sure I could see blood spatter coming from them aswell as I shot them, but the bodies themselves are invisible.

Re: Does maria ruin the game?

Maria definitely gives us the most in depth look at James' psyche, she is my faveourite character in the game too. I guess people don't like her because she messes with James' head, yes she does, but in a good way, in a way that he needs. I've just got to the boss fight with Eddie now and wow, I for...

Re: Silent Hill in First Person

I would like a bit of both, 1st person allows a much greater ability to inspect the enviroment but I would like a majority of the gameplay to be in 3rd person, just with the ability to go into 1st person if you see something cool/creepy.

Re: Theory based on how Rebirth could have panned out.

I like the baby idea too, it is a very pure and nice outcome however it might not be the best outcome for James conscidering his wife has become a kind of daughter. Would she need reminding of her past life like Heather did? That would be an awkeard conversation. "By the way Mary, in a past lif...

Re: Does maria ruin the game?

Maria's purpose is to forcibly remind James of what he did to Mary. The reason she tags along with you and plays the whole damsel in distress is because it's his subconscious saying "look James you are meant to protect the women in your life and make sure they don't come to harm". That mes...

Theory based on how Rebirth could have panned out.

I always wondered what would happen after James finished the ritual to rebirth Mary. An idea I jave been toying around with is that Mary is reborn but she is pregnant with God. For a while they are both extremely happy but after a while Mary starts to cough... she falls ill to the disease again and ...
