Okay, Did not enjoy Silent Hill 2 that much, felt very empty to me. I felt like I was traveling through area's without any friction for the most part, just sliding on the world's smoothest material. I can't help but compare this to Resident Evil and I think for sure they do better at this in every way, but this provides a different vibe and a more Thinking Gamer's Story™.
I like the vibe, and of course I enjoy the soundtrack more than any RE game; but the story I also get almost nothing out of. I think I just want more time with these people as characters and this game is very short with a lot of Silent Gaming, so I just don't care. I think it makes up for that with the moments you do get being strong(?), thats why Angela is probably the best character, but like I can imagine if I got more moments.
Born From a Wish was cool, it was in a mansion so I got to think about Resident Evil! I liked the area probably the most out of all them. Very short and nothing besides that, but I liked that new area.
ALSO This game lets you fucking FULLY REMAP ALL BUTTONS ON CONSOLE. That shit blew my mind. It also has a baby mode where you dont die, thats awesome; so ahead of its time there.

(3 and 1 are directly connected to each other, 2 is kind of an offshoot, and for 4 you'd be best off having played all 3 others)
How can you sit there and eat pizza >>>>>>>> Jill Sandwich
@3xtreme_Belgian the source engine "Help!" clears all that
@snigglegros False equivalence, Help! is applicable in all situations, while those two lines are extremely contextual. Destroyed.
@Zurheide So based on how useful the lines are, Help is obviously at the front, then I can agree that "How can you sit there and eat a pizza" would be better than "jill sandwhich", you would have to find someone named Jill to even use that line!

2 goes hard on the figure-it-out-yourself psychological horror angle. sh1, 3 and also 4 are pretty much nothing like this. 1 and 3 are more plot-driven and 3 is far more of a survival horror game than 1 and 2 combined
