I played the original silent hill for the first time without knowing anything about the series and i think i am missing something.
The gameplay was obviously clunky but still enjoyable using savestates. My problem comes from the fact that it wasn’t really scary (probably because i don’t get scared easily) and from the story. When i reached the ending i was very interested in knowing what was going to happen, only to be faced with a basic bossfight without much information about the story (bad ending).
Then i checked the wiki and apparently there are multiple endings whose requirements are not explained in game (or at least it seems so).
Is it worth replaying the game using a guide to see the other endings or should i just watch them on YouTube?
I only recently started playing older titles with the original half life and i guess that put my bar for masterpiece a little too high. I still consider it a good game, probably i would have appreciated it more when it came out.
Half-Life arguably suffers from success more than any horror game. Everybody ripped it off, to the point its innovations can feel cliche. Like Aliens. Fortunately it’s put together well enough to remain viscerally engaging, and the ridiculous aspects are mostly deliberate. And, bitrates aside, it still sounds incredible. Sound design is more than half of what conveys atmosphere.
