Blasphemous is great! You should try out Valdis Story Abyssal City. That game has the best combat imo

Tbh I prefer remake over original. Im a diehard fan of the originals but prefer almost everything from the remake Idk why people are even bothering comparing the game The remake isn’t bad The original isn’t bad They’re both amazing and deserve to be respected and seen as almost the same level What people do is childish, the game is great and the original is great too people just need to accept that both games are amazing and still are silent hill 2 Both are amazing and need to be treated as if they’re the same. It’s not identical but be proud we’re atleast even getting remakes and attention showed to our beloved franchise. There should be no arguments or debates and only acceptance that we are finally getting something that shines a brighter light onto our community and beloved franchise

Unfortunately i could never enjoy the OG SH2. I loved SH1 and 3, but i legit did not understand the story of 2. After watching lore videos around SH, i eventually went down the rabit hole of 2. Hot dang is that game's story an absolute masterpiece. The remake let me enjoy the story, while also being a "new game". I had already played the OG, and was disappointed at the time because i didnt understand it. The remake is an absolute win for me, but I understand some of your points

I love both. I wish some things were kept in the remake or taken out. Not a fan of more puzzles and how much more enemies there are cause sometimes less is truly more. Aside from that the remake was great. The original is great and I’ll admit the gameplay isn’t too good by today’s standards but it’s still fun. We can love and appreciate both

Picked up blasphemous from the steam sale because it people said it was the best metroidvania in a while. Game is annoying as shit hard and clunky controls. I mean i hate games with controls that feel like there's imput lag. Like I'm playing a streaming game service or old NES games. I have to relearn and account that I need to hit the button 1-1.5 seconds before I want to make the jump, parry, or attack.

I love Silent Hill 2 and the Remake but I never needed to have watched David Lynch or Twin Peaks to appreciate the series. You legit sound like an insecure "Video Essay Loser" making the series sound like a crappy, experimental, art film.

I like the remake a lot as an og fan. But it made me appreciate the original game even more. Its so fucking untouchable. Great video man fuck these haters!!

As someone who grew up on the OG games, its nice to see someone who actually knows their shit speak up. Great video man, had to subscribe.

My man Adam I grew up playing games with tank controls and had no problem with tank controls but never got around to Sh2 because I was too scared as a kid. I’m grown up and I’ve played both games now. Very sorry to say man but me and the vast majority of people believe the remake is miles better😂. The og level design isn’t near as good and the game gives u way too much ammo. I just never once was really scared in the og. The remake fixes this and gives u way less ammo. The monsters are actually a threat too and u can’t just run by them everytime. Og is still okay but the bloober literally took the job and made everything better.

I agree that the new one is better, however the new one couldn't even crawl without the old one existing as source. I also feel the same with the Re2, Re3, Re4, and REmake 2, 3, and 4. I played the OG Silent Hill 2 and RE2, 3, and 4 when I was quite young and again when the Remakes were announced. I played both the Remakes (Silent Hill 2 and REmake 4) this past month and I was really impressed. There are some things in the new ones that I'm not a fan of, Silent Hill 2 suffers from Playstation syndrome. But overall, I am more favorable to the new ones. With all that said I will still say that I personally enjoyed the old ones more, but the new ones I feel are better.

😂😌I wonder if their was anybody having these wars for re4 original vs remake but can coexist whining and btching is stupid 😂

Ok. So I’m getting this game based on your review. So I’ll trade you. Go play Hollow Knight. Best Metroidvania of all time and it’s not close. I have the same resume as you with games and metroidvanias

I'm still hesitating about getting SH2R I would like to know if Born from a wish is going to happen.

The bitching from Og fans is why there is a reaction like this. Y'all mfs can't give Remake any credit, even when Team Silent members praised it.

I played the remake first and since then I’ve played 1 and 2 and the old ones in my opinion are scarier. The low fidelity graphics, Dutch camera angles, and tank controls a way more oppressive than a fresh coat of paint and you have a lot less control over Harry and James.

2 years later still the same issues

I love how they always claim the remake is such a superior product even though they didn't play the og and most likely didn't even play the remake and even though everyone on all social media platforms STILL uses the old sounds and scenes and songs when they talk about Silent Hill because they're just that iconic. The only thing they ever use from the remake is the gameplay because it's more in line with games nowdays. One time I saw a person on tik tok saying how good the voice acting is in the remake while using an audio from the original... If that's not telling I don't know what is 😭 Also, I just started playing the original after I got it for Christmas and I gotta say the remake never made me feel anything as strong as the first few seconds of the original and I noticed that they stretched the remake out SO HARD, probably because people nowdays want all of their games to be 50 hours long. I also love that now that I've platinumed the remake and have played a bit of the original I can argue with morons who haven't played either game who blindly hate on the original bc they just dislike older games. This reminds me a lot of the RE4 remake, which I hate, especially when compared to the original, which I adore. When people finally realise that new doesn't mean better I will finally be able to rest, especially since good, old games are usually a product of their time and modernizing them inevitably makes them worse 🙏 Edit: I forgot to mention I really like the loop theory and now that I've played some of the original I don't think this is just a thing they invented for the remake, the best example I can give right now is those notes found near that dead body when you first arrive in Silent Hill. The body looks like James and the notes were obviously written for the James you play as. I always thought the loop theory was a good one, the remake just sort of outright confirms it in a way that the original just doesn't.

Silent Hill 2 fans played Silent Hill 2 for the first time.

People actually thing the original's voice acting is bad? Hilarious. The remake's voice acting is completely awful. Just listen to Angela in the graveyard or Maria in the prison and see how utterly uninterested they are in the performance. It's unironically painful listening to them.

The only thing I did not like about the OG SH2 was the tank controls. But you get used to it the more you play. Video essay losers are making videos about every controversial topic to generate rage clicks and comments. What I loved about SH2 was how it created horror in my imagination. If you remember the sequence where you enter the lift and it says that you are too heavy to use it. I honestly thought there was some invisible entity attached to me and following me. Turns out I had to empty my inventory. Os yeah. Maybe I'm just a dum-dum, but honestly, I credit the game for invoking such feeling.

I finished playing SH 2 remake yesterday. All I can say is most of the time, I being force especially on going place to place. For example, when James Sunder going to apartment mission, the wind storm is pushing player going to apartment and after james going outside from hospital, we can't roam any place unlike SH 2 original. Am i the only one who felt that way? Anyway, I pirated game and i don't want to spend money on video games that aren't promising

Lot of people is kinda angry about it but yea the Remake is better just beacaue its a very different generation of graphics, bloober team was capable of doing this great game because 80% of the game was already done by Team Silent , i played SH@ when it came out i loved it , now playing the remake it feels like a very deserved upgrade

One thing I always see and scratch my head over are the people constantly bringing up that the fixed camera or tank controls or whatever else were all due to the tech limitations of the time. For starters, it's not like the OG was made in 1990. You'd think every game prior to RE4 was fixed camera. I guess games like Mario 64 were fixed camera tank controls and I just didn't notice. Or am I to believe that the PS2 had tech limitations that the N64 didn't? Secondly, these supposed limitations are only limitations from the perspective of hindsight. At the time, the PS2 was the most powerful and capable system on the market. I highly doubt that developers moving from the PS1 to the PS2 were going "how are we going to deal with all these horrible limitations?!?" Like 20 years from now when people are playing a SH2 Remake Remake with VR holographic diplays or something looking back on this one and saying "that awful OTS camera was just a limitation of the time." Clearly the OTS camera in the remake was a design choice, just as the fixed camera in the OG was a design choice.

I love the original and the remake. Some things the original is better for, some things the remake are better for. Neither are perfect and both can exist at the same time.

Not bashing the OG. I loved it and it's the reason I wanted to play the Remake But the fixed camera and tank control are indeed limitations and the director of the original wasn't satisfied with it and actually praised the control of the remake and said it's better and it was what he wanted for the game in the first place I just wanted to point that out

Reddit is the absolute cesspool of the internet

Wow guys water am i right, do you see it now? wow i am smert

Redditors are going to Reddit, the usual “it was bad all along”, cliché remarks midwits use to tear down the past.

Eh, i don't really care about 2. I just hope bloober won't fuck up the best part, SH4

Yea reddit and anyone who never played the original but say theyre a fan should never be listened to. Like ever. Both games are good, and I'm just beyond surprised they were able to replicate it. Tbh, I want to just explore more Silent Hill.

Honestly the main reason I prefer the remake is that I played the original up until the labyrinth basically and so far the game never scared me, which isn't something I'd want from an horror game

I played through the original when it came out and when my wife died I lived it, there are things in the og you can't repeat ,the remake is a game playing a game, disguised as another game and too damn long , I like the puzzles but they don't make sense sometimes and feels kinda bloated, lucky I still got my orginal disc 😅

Go play spiderman 🤣

Hollow knight comparison video needed

I personally prefer the remake than the original. Something about the direction, the acting just really got to me in the remake. I didn't think and feel so deeply about SH2 in a while, and It's thanks to the remake. I did prefer some things from the og obviously. I think when James watches the tape, music is unnecessary, and there is no topping original Mary's/Maria's voice acting. Anyway I don't think much changed when it comes to how Silent Hill 2 is talked about. Unfortunately large portion of the SH2 fanbase was always toxic and unsaferable. Then we had fans who would allow no criticism of SH2 the original. Now we have fans who won't allow any criticism of the remake. Both fans then and now will also drag other things down to elevate whatever they are treating like the holy grail. Honestly I'm tired of this og vs remake war. Every time a remake comes out, people think they have to choose a side and... You don't. You can like both for what they are. I don't hate concept of remakes in general (controversial take i know). Many people think they will overshadow the original but I think they will make people talk about both remake and the original again. A lot of people from newer generations would never take a glance at an old game, but maybe thanks to a remake, they'll take an interest. Even if Just as a piece of history.

I enjoyed the original and the remake

I hate zoomers.

I love both, I don't know why people feel the need to trash the original or the remake.

Kinda stuns me that the removal and smoothing over of the uncanny valley of the original is seen as an improvement. That off kilter dreamlike surrealism is hard to create in any era but it's intentional and isn't just the nature of PS2 graphics. Mainstreaming it up and making it more palatable to "modern audiences" should be an immediate signpost that the artistry is watered down. I appreciate some of what the remake accomplished, hell I assumed it'd be much worse, but the combat heavy gameplay and misses in the acting just show me they copied Team Silent's homework, to a decent degree actually, but also missed the point in a lot of ways. The subleties aren't nitpicking, those fine details are the reason we're still hyperanalyzing this game because the detail lends itself to being studied over like a Kubrick film. The new version is a fun game, mostly, but it isn't an artistic masterpiece and comes across as a high budget Netflix remake of The Shining or something. Guarantee you it won't be talked about much except as a footnote to the original in 20 years.

Oh no, nobody can convince me that the OG SH 2 isn't a masterpiece. Just Mary letter in the end with Monica Taylor Horgan crying is unbetable. I knew the Remake could never reach this level of voice acting and in the end I was right. So if there's a game that can be called a masterpiece this game is Silent Hill 2.

Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks were pretty obvious influences for the OG SH2 including the acting and scene of James hiding in the closet with a gun. Just replace Pyramid Head with Dennis Hopper. Anybody saying they weren't is a normie tourist.

This is what happens when chuds get a hold of something popular.

It like remake cod world at war people will do the same as this game

The wokeification of silent hill 2 is why I voted for Trump. #project2025

Nice collection. Good memories👍

Comparing it to John Carpenter's The Thing? Not even close. Both the first adaptation and Carpenter's are great in their own way, but Silent Hill 2 remake somehow sounds and looks disinterested in itself. Silent Hill 2 had layers. This remake forgoes that and that is why it feels lacking in some areas. Adding this to help provide more perspective: I don't thing this interpretation is necessarily awful. It was a good attempt, but the visual storytelling falls short in some areas. Hopefully they continue to improve in that respect.

oh no i think my phone quadruple my comments! oh also konami outsourced after sh4. the og sh3 wasn't supposed to be related to sh1 at all but its own story that they had said was too dark to talk about about which makes much sense when vplaying it. And the other half of team silent worked on 4 at the same time as others on 3. but 3 performed poorly bc the forced cult sh1 pressure on it. and by the time 4 dropped konami gave up on art and team silent broke up. then they just outsourced the rest as bad cash grabs hence why they were so bad

my oldest memories was watching the shining w my parents when i was 3 years old (i adored it as a kid and still do to this day. i feel like this is a lot of why horror has been huge in my life and my comfort. also angela is such a spot on portrayal of mental illness in a way you don't get in most media (james too but yea). some one had said once in a video that she embodies someone so severely mentally ill that you feel bad for them and pity them but at the same time want little to do with them let alone try to help them, tho shes a case that's tragic and too beyond help.

the sh2 directing, camera angles etc still hold up today and nothing rly seems to do the same these days. the remake rly didn't. and omg the sh2 is still ahead of its time in so many ways esp the story. i rambled about this on ur remake video 😂 also the ost hits hard. and i always personally connected to the director most. i was 10 or 11 when i got 2 and i had such a deep connection to this one always out of all of them. i love how you appreciate the series as much as i do. it's beautiful seeing others appreciate art like this yanno?
