Henry is so literally Me fr.. his introvertness give him so much idgaf attitude that he doesn't even care about whole ass monsters and his entire apartment block changing into a industrial hell Lol
i LOVE the side stories of the other apartment tenants like the rachel/mike storyline & references to sh2. the attention to detail in this game is so cool
@@violetslit they are subtle but it is neat that the player can piece these things together and figure out how all the residents interconnect with each other
I’m laid up in bed with the worst stomach bug, aching, sweating and just generally miserable…then I get a notification that you graced us with a new video! Cheered me right up 😊 thanks for making a horrible day better my guy and keep up the amazing work
Finally something a youtube video can realistically help to get through emotionally. Usually I see shit like "my wife and child died an hour ago, but your videos greatly help"
@@steelbear2063 My wife cheated on me with Tyrone, divorced me, took the kids, and the house, and then got swept into a vehicular accident that exploded our home, my dog, the last thing left to me, was struck by lightning, and I got fired from my job, the homeless people won't accept me, and after tripping on a bannana peel, I became permanently paralyzed from the neck down, I found out my doctors have been using my head as a way to leave their pent out frustrations, so now I have CTE, and keep forgetting everything. My life expectancy is so low, but I just can't seem to die, as if the world itself is keeping me in the suffering cycle... But your comment greatly helped me steelbear2063. 🥰🥰
Feel you! I've been doing the same with his silent hill 3 video, even fell asleep while listening to it because it gives me peace 💯 Its always nice to have something to look up to when you're laying in bed and can't do anything 🙏 Nothing better than checking a good silent hill adventure 💯
@@KaishaLouise they can make the walls bleed, manifest 8ft tall twin invincible geometric headed cenobites to punish the shit out of you and you'd thank them for it, and literally resurrect the dead. Let's not forget about the whole bringing a god into reality, twice. I don't think them brainwashing a toddler into thinking an apartment is literally his mother is farfetched given these parameters LMAO
Regarding the two "Good" endings: In "Escape", Eileen wanting to find a new apartment isn't weird at all, I'm pretty sure nobody would want to live in an apartment where they experienced horrors and almost died like she did, no matter the outcome. In the mother ending, the apartment is still possessed, before Eileen was possessed by the boy, so one could speculate that Eileen is still possessed and that's why she wants to go back.
Out of all the silent hill 4 videos I've watched over the years, you're the first person I think I've seen mention how the game controls during the apartment segments, pick out details about how the story is presented to the player like how people you see in the dream world has a model somewhere in the real world that is sleeping, and even call out the myth of 'cleansing' Eileen before the final fight. All while still delivering your thoughts in an entertaining way that doesn't misconstrue your feelings about the game as "objective" facts like so many other creators tend to do in attempts to look 'smarter' than their audience. Great stuff! I knew you were something serious when I saw your Gears Judgment video. You're going right up there in the list of my favorite underrated UA-cam channels in the company of ThorHighHeels, Tehsnakerer and GrimBeard.
@@Jaymez2012 I do mean this comment genuinely makes me happy. I really did try my best to cover most of the game, but there is so much packed into the game - I’m for sure missing a lot. And somethings I purposely omitted like the nurse outfits because that’s just weird bruh.
@@Boofcan As someone who hasn't played 4 (tried it for an hour) but seen it played I can't believe the statement of "Walter Sullivan is an incredible villain" attached to a goofy looking edgelord who fires a gun at you in the back half. Nemesis never monologued about anything which why I think Walter looks so goofy to me.
well, i don't know about you, but unless i was possessed by Walter, i wouldn't go back to that place in a million years, even if someone reassures me the place was cleansed
Love your videos boof! Funnily enough, the first silent hill video you'd made a bit ago, not only brought me an introduction to your channel, but the whole series as a whole! Been loving it ever since. Hope your having a great day and see your channel strive to new heights my guy!
I’m glad!! The silent hill games are great! While I might not like 4 as much as the others it’s still good enough for me to want to make a 2hr video on it hahaha.
Incredible video, huge coverage of everything that makes SH4 so different, the video is well paced, very instructive, it was just great to watch. Perfect to watch before the release of SH2R.
I'm pretty sure the "mother" ending has Eileen wanting to go back to the apartment due to walters influence. The hauntings still being present means there's still power keeping her there. I think early in the game you can over hear a conversation with her and her friend where she wants to leave the apartment but doesn't because "theres just something about it" where as in the other ending, the apartment is cleansed and she has nothing keeping her there so she wants to leave.
1:18:25 There is a theory about this cutscene that it reveals Walter's desire to return to the womb (or to feel like a child inside mother's womb again). The game itself has umbilical cord symbolism (a big greedy worm gnawing holes in the walls) and the game files contain many cut models with animations related to childbirth and a child in the belly. Apparently, all this was cut due to censorship, Rodolfo Nunez found all these files on his channel and showed them. ("SH 4 unused models with animation from spiral staircases") . The game's final boss, in the form of Walter's body covered in an organic film with umbilical cords running through his body, also ties into this theme.
This guy’s channel is important. All we hear about is anxiety and stress for meeting upload schedules and getting punished by the algorthm. This guy is doing three a year and getting a million views per video. Maybe there is something to this? As a psych I’m always really concerned when I see UA-camrs burning out and developing anxiety over a videos performance, or highly anxious over missing an upload so they can take a holiday. Also, fantastic content. I don’t know what it is, but these videos are really engaging.
I wish my anxiety about these videos were better but I'm always second guessing these because they still aren't at the level I want to be. Genuinely I wish I could really tear the veil and provide hours worth of analysis without using the story as a backbone to make all my points, but that requires a lengthy amount of time that I don't have currently. It's a reason why some of the best videos on this platform take 6+ months to a year to release. I.E: Hbomberguy I would love to get to that point, and really I only feel like I hit mark there with my Fallout New Vegas videos, but that's also because I've played that game and on and off religiously for a decade. Find the balance between quality and consistency has been a struggle this year.
@@Boofcan your silent hill 4 video blew me away man. You are dead wrong if you don’t think that was a genuinely outstanding analysis that went way beyond other video analysis on UA-cam. It’s rare I stop what I’m doing and just watch-your video did that to me. Just remember that the longer you spend on a video, the greater the heartache and pain if it ‘fails’. Sometimes perfect is the enemy of good. But I appreciate and love your commitment and dedication. Please never stop.
“Frustrating” was a perfect word choice for this game, in my opinion. I’m not saying it’s a bad game; on the contrary, I find it kinda genius. However, the infinite loop gameplay back and forth through the holes and the undying ghosts are not really my cup of tea and make me feel frustrated. I really like how you structured the video, describing the experience and inserting memes, curiosities, and theories without spoiling the whole plot straight up. There were many things that went unnoticed while playing that were presented here; it’s really interesting and entertaining. I was really looking forward to this one. It must have taken a lot of effort and research. Keep up the awesome work! Looking forward to your view on Silent Hill 2.
Raissa it's always a joy when you comment! It appreciate it so much that you noticed all of that! I spent a while on how I wanted to structure this video! :) Muito obrigado e espero que você esteja bem! Estou animado para fazer isso com SH2 eventualmente, agora que o remake finalmente foi lançado !
I think "Cleaning the apartment" being the one that lets you leave it is more important. It's symbolic of letting go and moving on, and putting these horrors behind you. With it still corrupted and staying, I believe the implication is that whatever force still lingers has a grip on you or Eileen and wants to use her for....Something. It's just unsettling. That's my look at it though.
I just recently watched another video about Silent Hill 4, so I was a bit reluctant to watch this one. I really loved your past videos, though, because they were so detailed and, idk, appreciative? As well as funny, so I watched it anyway, and omg, dude, you do such a great job! Especially the second half had so much input I didn't know, like the little side quest with the Love Letters. You're a great UA-camr, really excited to stick around
Your SH videos are so amazing to watch. Even though I have played through the first 4 already, these videos are still amazing to watch. Keep up the great work man. 🔥
This video made me realise that I underestimated how many people actually say "escape" as "exscape"; seems to be very common for a lot of American youtubers, very interesting!
In Eileen's defenses,she does have one eye coverted. I mean,in MGS3,Naked Snake can't see the Distance well after losing one eye. So Eileen could have the same problem too.
Phone call reference in the beginning literally got me laughing out loud lmao, definitely made my night keep up the great work😂😂😂😂 . love your videos, always coming out at the right moments in my life❤❤❤
Another great video! But I think it makes sense when Eileen mentions either leaving or going back to the apartment in the endings. I mean, would you go back to an apartment where you were beaten to death? And with going back to the apartment, it's basically her being called back to be sacrificed.
@@Boofcan True! But I think the implication of the haunted apartment was that parts of Walter's "hell" still lingers and the 21 Sacraments can still continue. I agree it's a little fuzzy though and totally open to interpretation.
@@BoofcanLong forgotten Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1, 2, Defiance? You can wait for newly announced remasters too. Rule of Rose... P.S. I think you have most interesting videos about Silent Hill. Just like Fungo lore walkthrough (sad that this guy just disappeared)
Boof the type of dude to invite some randos over to a late night gaming session, accidentally let out some explosive diarrhea and then abruptly jump out his own window to avoid an inevitable awkward situation 👏🏻
Silent Hill 4 is still one of the scariest games I've ever played. But man, it has some REAL shitty parts with the stock sounds, controls, the whole annoying backtracking in the second half. I'd hope SH4 gets a remake sometime! It deserves redemption imo
I really think this is underrated, people hate Henry, I love him because hes so chill its funny, but it does have its problems. Repeating all the worlds, the ghosts never dying, the limited inventory...but I love the story. The twins monster is so creepy...the intro to the game is even scary, still holds up. I just love this game. I didn't give it a chance when I first bought it, put it down for a few months, came back and I was glad I did.❤
After beating Silent Hill 4 just recently, I went on a binge watching as many videos about the game as I could. This is my favorite. It does the best job of capturing what the game actually feels like to play, where it excels and disappoints. It also brought forward a couple of story details I'd missed and hadn't seen brought up elsewhere. Good job with this!
yknow its funny this silent hill is actually my favorite of the bunch I discovered your videos literally two days ago and wondered if you would ever cover this and just wow perfect timing
Wow… I’m so dumb. When I was a kid, I encountered that infinite loop in the forest, I was so young I had no idea what was going on, and I was convinced my game was broken, so I never tried playing again after that
Love all of your silent hill videos - I'm big into the series, and your vids have been a great way for me to show the series to friends who feel intimidated about getting into the series with me. Keep up the good work!
I never actually found it that frustrating or troublesome. There were a few enemies that gave me some trouble and a couple puzzles that had me stuck for a while. For the most part though it was fun and enjoyable the whole way through.
Me neither. It’s called having the patience to learn mechanics, and how to progress. Apparently everyone has patience and understanding for 1-3 but not for 4.
Correction: silver bullets don't kill ghosts permanently. They only knock a ghost down in one hit so you can use a Sword of Obedience on them, they will get up unless you do that
I watched your silent hill and silent hill 3 videos all the way thru two days ago. I already love your content lol just subbed. Keep up the epic work 🙏🏾🙇🏾💪🏾
Very great video! ❤ I’ve been watching your entire channel ever since I discovered it yesterday as it makes really good background noise while I’m working. Keep up the good work!
i dont think the robbie doll pointing at us was supposed to make us feel guilty about not saving eileen. it was just more on the theme of voyeurism. its creepy and makes us feel like we're getting caught.
A little note for the newer fans, Walter was Dahlia's original plan to birth god via the 21 sacraments ritual. She then finds out about impregnating Alessa with 'The God' which proved more viable than the 21 sacraments. 'The God' in question is Samael which is another name for Satan AKA The Devil.
Ya know, i gotta say you've improved so much man. I watched your gears of war judgment video a week after you released it. And god damn. Each video just gets better and better. Is it weird to say im proud? Lmao keeo uo the good work dude. You're going places i just know it!
@Boofcan aye the struggle just means you're doing good man. The effort you're putting in is seen everytime. The quality on this channel is so good and I can't wait for more. Keep up the good work brotha
ZEUS DROP A SILENT HILL 2 VIDEO AND MY LIFE IS YOURS! Seriously tho these are insanely well made and I love coming home to work and rewatching keep it up!
1:18:28 I think the lore reason as to why he is doing this is because the first 10 victims walter killed had their hearts taken out and expertly sewn back together (as mentioned by one of the pages of the red diary) 😊
It's been a while for many months for boofcan to upload a silent hill video retrospective ! Loves from the philippines , been enjoying this video just like totallypointlesstv.
Did you know that Henry always “wakes up” in the fetal position after a trip through the tunnel because it reflects birth, as the room represents the “mother” for Walter
Played silent hill cause of you, gonna play silent hill 4 now! Your retrospectives are so beautifully done- you truly respect team silent’s work unlike most fans I see.
I understand why people don't like SH4, because it does have a lot of flaws, but I can't help but be intrigued by it because when it does something well, it does it _really_ well. The characters and overall story really deserve better, and this is absolutely a game that could've been great if the developers had more time. As you pointed out, the comparison between Henry and Walter is vague, but very interesting, and it would be fantastic to see this concept expanded upon. I'm really hoping that the success of the Silent Hill 2 remake means that we might get a remake of 4. Of all the Silent Hill games to experience in a new, more complete way, this is the one I'm most excited about. P.S. Maybe it's just his general lack of expression, but I didn't get the impression that Henry was into Eileen in the way you're implying. I personally like to see them just as friends, particularly because it's nice to see a person you save not necessarily being a love interest.
Here's the Silent Hill franchise in chronological order based on when the stories take place: 1. Silent Hill: Origins - 1976 2. Silent Hill - 1983 3. Silent Hill 3 - 2000 4. Silent Hill 2 - Early 2000s 5. Silent Hill 4: The Room - 2001 6. Silent Hill: Homecoming - 2007 7. Silent Hill: Downpour - 2011
Locked in from the inside and "nobody can see you struggling" hits different when you suffer from depression and disability. Any way: Great vid. Just found you tonight and I'm gonna definitely have to dig through your back catalog.
yo, im one of those who suggested silent hill 4 game for you, and its cuz of the idea of haunted room while thinking you are in safe space, also forces you to go to other world when you dont want to really love walter as villain and the story of this game is fun to analyze and explore deep with what the game can offer you tho i understand with gameplay mechanics and the way enemies are portrayed, if anything i hope silent hill 4 gets a remake next cuz i think it has potential to do a revision and rework while keeping what made 4 unique but in better way

I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but I love how you introduce each enemy type and provide a spinning model of it for us to clearly see.
You are the first! And trust it’s going to get better:) I’ve been learning a lot more since uploading this video
Honestly? I strive to be as unbothered as Henry is. Brother is stone cold.
He dgaf most of the time. Felt that
Work in retail and you'll become just like him. I see all manner of creepy cryptids daily and at this point I just react with the utmost indifference.

I love how this was all caused by Walter thinking his mom is a literal apartment.
You can blame "the important" lady Dahlia for manipulating him into believing that lmfao
I think it's a metaphor for his mother's womb but that's just my take on it.

Walter is dead at that point is he not? The way walters otherworld operates is a little fuzzy at times.
@@Boofcan True! But I think the implication of the haunted apartment was that parts of Walter's "hell" still lingers and the 21 Sacraments can still continue. I agree it's a little fuzzy though and totally open to interpretation.
Bro you might as well do the entire Silent Hill series at this point
I’m sure I will eventually, but I am trying to find games you normally don’t see often! I’ll come back to silent hill soon ish
@@Boofcan maybe try visage then? It was pretty crazy and inspired by P.T.
@@Boofcan
There's always some good obscure shit from the 6th gen, like, well, ObsCure. And Haunting Grounds
@@BoofcanLong forgotten Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1, 2, Defiance? You can wait for newly announced remasters too.
Rule of Rose...
P.S. I think you have most interesting videos about Silent Hill. Just like Fungo lore walkthrough (sad that this guy just disappeared)
He remembered his youtube password after 4 months
Grandpa boof remembered to take his meds
I think he was getting into the proper mindset for this video by locking himself in his home until he finished the video
Good job man, this is the best vid about sh4 that ive watched. This game deserves a remake.
I tried my best!!
DAMN i didn't even notice all the details/clues you can find in this game by simply looking out the apartment window. love it
There is a lot packed in!! You definitely have to work to find all the subtle details they put in.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VID FOR SO LONG OMG NOW I HAVE ANOTHER VIDEO TO REWATCH 2 MILLION TIMES. The wait was so worth it, GREAT JOB!!
IM GLAD!!
Boof the type of dude to invite some randos over to a late night gaming session, accidentally let out some explosive diarrhea and then abruptly jump out his own window to avoid an inevitable awkward situation 👏🏻
Boofcan lore goes crazy
@@Boofcan
Dropping an absolute screamer on them
Silent Hill 4 is still one of the scariest games I've ever played. But man, it has some REAL shitty parts with the stock sounds, controls, the whole annoying backtracking in the second half. I'd hope SH4 gets a remake sometime! It deserves redemption imo
Walter is probably bringing the mannequin to life with his 'seed'. Still crazy.
Waltering his way in there is crazy
I really think this is underrated, people hate Henry, I love him because hes so chill its funny, but it does have its problems. Repeating all the worlds, the ghosts never dying, the limited inventory...but I love the story. The twins monster is so creepy...the intro to the game is even scary, still holds up. I just love this game. I didn't give it a chance when I first bought it, put it down for a few months, came back and I was glad I did.❤
I just checked your channel the other day to see if I missed some new video; it feels like 2 hours of Christmas already.
Hope you enjoyed it!!
A NEW BOOFCAN VIDEO TO KEEP ME BUSY UNTIL SH2 REMAKE RELEASE?
BLESS U SIR
I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE REMAKE. ITS VERY WELL MADE
You definintly earned a new fan! Really enjoy your videos and here to stay for the rest of the series!
I'm glad you enjoyed!! Thanks for leaving a comment too it really does help the videos
After beating Silent Hill 4 just recently, I went on a binge watching as many videos about the game as I could. This is my favorite. It does the best job of capturing what the game actually feels like to play, where it excels and disappoints. It also brought forward a couple of story details I'd missed and hadn't seen brought up elsewhere. Good job with this!
yknow its funny this silent hill is actually my favorite of the bunch I discovered your videos literally two days ago and wondered if you would ever cover this and just wow perfect timing
hope you enjoy 8bitalien!
Please more videos like this! I know it’s a lot of work but keep them coming homie! I love them
I’m trying! They do take a bit of work but I’m trying to get better at them
The wait was soo worth it. Awesome video dude I loved your review on my favorite entry in SH entry. Loved the custom camera angles
I’m glad you enjoyed!!! I wanted to really showcase the game with every shot !
Wow… I’m so dumb. When I was a kid, I encountered that infinite loop in the forest, I was so young I had no idea what was going on, and I was convinced my game was broken, so I never tried playing again after that
Ironically not the first infinite forest loop in a game to get people to do that. It's a weirdly specific and old trope in video games.
You rock, dude. Good combination of commentary and gameplay for one of my favorite horror game franchises. Just in time for Halloween too.
Thank you!! I'm really glad you like it!!
Love all of your silent hill videos - I'm big into the series, and your vids have been a great way for me to show the series to friends who feel intimidated about getting into the series with me. Keep up the good work!
That's so sick!! Thank you so much genuinely! Your friends are getting into a great series!!
bro i love your stuff, every video has been a banger and the wait is always worth it! much love man!
I appreciate that! Much love man
1:59:07 when you suddenly remember a cringe thing you did years ago.
I never actually found it that frustrating or troublesome. There were a few enemies that gave me some trouble and a couple puzzles that had me stuck for a while. For the most part though it was fun and enjoyable the whole way through.
okay
Me neither. It’s called having the patience to learn mechanics, and how to progress. Apparently everyone has patience and understanding for 1-3 but not for 4.
Correction: silver bullets don't kill ghosts permanently. They only knock a ghost down in one hit so you can use a Sword of Obedience on them, they will get up unless you do that
Aye brother nice timing on dropping this vid remake comes out in exactly 2 hours for me and you just gave me the perfect prep
Hope you enjoyed it!!
I've really liked these videos so far, and I think no matter the content of the next, I'll keep watching
That means a lot!! I’m going to try my best to maintain the quality or make it better each video
Bro, your sound mixing did NOT have to be this good man. wth 😭
IM GOING TO GET BETTER MR FUZ
You and Totally PointlessTV are my favorite SH youtubers
@@DerpyDerpums I like that guy. I wish he would reach out. Every UA-camr has been very receptive in DMs besides him 🤷🏾♂️
@@Boofcan
He doesn't seem like a guy who gets along with others
love your content man, so glad to see you continuing to cover silent hill!
thank you!! I'm trying my best so genuinely means a lot!!
@@Boofcan doing great so far dude the videos are some of the highest quality i’ve ever seen!!! can’t wait to see this channel blow up🙏
Blud did NOT have to change the thumbnail for a third time
Thank you for covering this man. I can't wait to see what SH2 remake has in store and what a SH4 remake would be 🤩
I watched your silent hill and silent hill 3 videos all the way thru two days ago. I already love your content lol just subbed. Keep up the epic work 🙏🏾🙇🏾💪🏾
@@BLACKxSONIC thank you so much bro 🙏🏾 I’m trying my best !!
One of my favorite new channels. Love your content and hope to see more soon
Very great video! ❤ I’ve been watching your entire channel ever since I discovered it yesterday as it makes really good background noise while I’m working. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed!
i dont think the robbie doll pointing at us was supposed to make us feel guilty about not saving eileen. it was just more on the theme of voyeurism. its creepy and makes us feel like we're getting caught.
I am loving your content good sir👊🔥
A little note for the newer fans, Walter was Dahlia's original plan to birth god via the 21 sacraments ritual. She then finds out about impregnating Alessa with 'The God' which proved more viable than the 21 sacraments. 'The God' in question is Samael which is another name for Satan AKA The Devil.
2:10:10 ! Got into a bit more detail here, but I drop hints about that the entire video
@@Boofcan Just for the people who miss it. ;)
Finally, a SH4 Boofcan video.
Just right when i was about to eat
Thanks for your excellent content
Hope you enjoyed it!
28:35
"Are you okay?"
"Sure thing Henry. These are just normal, healthy bloody wounds. Nothing to worry about."
Ya know, i gotta say you've improved so much man. I watched your gears of war judgment video a week after you released it. And god damn. Each video just gets better and better. Is it weird to say im proud? Lmao keeo uo the good work dude. You're going places i just know it!
Thank so much! Genuinely! I am trying to get better with each upload and sometimes I find myself struggling but I'm pushing through.
@Boofcan aye the struggle just means you're doing good man. The effort you're putting in is seen everytime. The quality on this channel is so good and I can't wait for more. Keep up the good work brotha
ZEUS DROP A SILENT HILL 2 VIDEO AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!
Seriously tho these are insanely well made and I love coming home to work and rewatching keep it up!
At 2:01:57 that contraption coming out of the blood is legit the hyperdrive from the Event Horizon.
It really is - practically one to one
I love Silent Hill 4, but SH3 is by far the scariest. And the one enemy burps bc it represents gasses leaving your body after death.
1:18:28
I think the lore reason as to why he is doing this is because the first 10 victims walter killed had their hearts taken out and expertly sewn back together (as mentioned by one of the pages of the red diary) 😊
It's been a while for many months for boofcan to upload a silent hill video retrospective ! Loves from the philippines , been enjoying this video just like totallypointlesstv.
Did you know that Henry always “wakes up” in the fetal position after a trip through the tunnel because it reflects birth, as the room represents the “mother” for Walter
We been waiting for this one 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
Hope you liked it! 🗣️‼️‼️
That was a really good video that I totally just watched
My new fav channel tbh
Played silent hill cause of you, gonna play silent hill 4 now! Your retrospectives are so beautifully done- you truly respect team silent’s work unlike most fans I see.
Looking from the front door this happens boom an AD from McDonald 😂
I understand why people don't like SH4, because it does have a lot of flaws, but I can't help but be intrigued by it because when it does something well, it does it _really_ well. The characters and overall story really deserve better, and this is absolutely a game that could've been great if the developers had more time.
As you pointed out, the comparison between Henry and Walter is vague, but very interesting, and it would be fantastic to see this concept expanded upon.
I'm really hoping that the success of the Silent Hill 2 remake means that we might get a remake of 4. Of all the Silent Hill games to experience in a new, more complete way, this is the one I'm most excited about.
P.S. Maybe it's just his general lack of expression, but I didn't get the impression that Henry was into Eileen in the way you're implying. I personally like to see them just as friends, particularly because it's nice to see a person you save not necessarily being a love interest.
dont ever disappear for that long ever again.
Bro u are underrated man, wish your channel going big
I hope so! It definitely doesn't feel like it at times hahaha.
Here's the Silent Hill franchise in chronological order based on when the stories take place:
1. Silent Hill: Origins - 1976
2. Silent Hill - 1983
3. Silent Hill 3 - 2000
4. Silent Hill 2 - Early 2000s
5. Silent Hill 4: The Room - 2001
6. Silent Hill: Homecoming - 2007
7. Silent Hill: Downpour - 2011
Henry sounds like the cube who trascended humanity
Whaaa I've been watching your videos on repeat, so happy for a new one!!!!
Hope you like it!!!
Bro that Yes King audio bit around the 24:30 really caught me of guard lol
Loving these videos I want one for every silent hill now. Would also love these kinds of videos for like, fatal frame or somethign
your videos are the best man its super funny including the slient hill 1 video were harry says huh that got me :D you make the best videos man
Aw thank you!!! :D
@@Boofcan no problem i think i commented twice im probably tweaking or sum idk
another video to download
Glad you like them!
You so real for this ngl. Favorite silent hill game.
Well... Since you've asked. Yes. I do indeed read gay magazines.
@@Wojtek_Ch 😦
Please play silent hill origins as well. It was my first silent hill game on the psp and got me into this awesome series!
Locked in from the inside and "nobody can see you struggling" hits different when you suffer from depression and disability.
Any way: Great vid. Just found you tonight and I'm gonna definitely have to dig through your back catalog.
Bro you deserve way more subs. Seriously underrated content.
The boof is back! Let’s fricking go bro!
Finally remembered my UA-cam password lol!
@@Boofcan don’t lose it this time 😂
So much effort in this video. Thanks for the entertainment keep them coming please but don’t work too hard.
Dude your name is really familiar. Did you go to college in West TN by chance?
@ bro no. Sorry for the late reply lol. 🦧
yo, im one of those who suggested silent hill 4 game for you, and its cuz of the idea of haunted room while thinking you are in safe space, also forces you to go to other world when you dont want to
really love walter as villain and the story of this game is fun to analyze and explore deep with what the game can offer you
tho i understand with gameplay mechanics and the way enemies are portrayed, if anything i hope silent hill 4 gets a remake next cuz i think it has potential to do a revision and rework while keeping what made 4 unique but in better way
