this one is definitely interesting. i'd like to read some analysis' of the story and hear what other people think about it, but I'm forming a few ideas in my head of the story being told here.

i think the game is maybe a little too blunt and disrespectful with some of its sexual content, and the characters are notably weaker than some other entries, but the story here is solid. music and sound design are great as usual, visually this is an absolutely drop dead gorgeous game, all the voice actors do a solid job, and the therapy sessions were a neat idea.

i really love how this is a game that seems to take a warped approach of retelling the first game. rather than the story taking place in a world born from alessa's mind, the story itself is a fictitious retelling from cheryl's mind. its a cool little swap.

another fun detail i noticed is that "Acceptance", which is the track that plays during the Good ending (in which Cheryl accepts Harry was a normal guy and dead the whole time) had a similar melody to "She", which plays in the Bad- ending from Silent Hill 1, in which Harry was dead the whole time. little musical parallel there hmmm?

yeah! good video game! wish climax got to make more of these!
