The story Maria tells about the candle statue is different from the real one you can read on the Historical society, were the man drowned for chasing the moon reflection as it was shinier than the candle, not from a storm. Maria hides the lesson of not chasing illusions. Lots of thought put into things like that in this remake, it's very good.
That's something I actually didn't know about the original. When I saw that scene I thought that they made up something entirely new to pad the time lmao. I guess I always just overlooked that detail
That SH3 reference (room 106 in Jack's Inn) made me so happy! There's also another easter egg within the room, if you visit it again during the Otherworld streets, there will be a Halo of the Sun symbol on the wall above the bed.
Not gonna lie, my expectations were low the first time we had a look at this game, especially since all the subpar late SH games and the absolute sh*tshow Ascension was. But jesus christ, even though my expectations skyrocketed in the weeks before release, Bloober managed to knock them out of the park and all the way to the moon with the final product. All interiors are perfect, the characters look awesome and the pure terror you feel in some places where it's only you, your flashlight and your wooden board against a pitch black corridor with weird noises at the end of it and your radio going crazier for every step you take is something else. I legit ran quite a lot of times to the nearest saving point to gather some courage and try again. I'm truly, truly, TRULY thankful to Bloober for what they've done. This game is to both Silent Hill 2 and the franchise as a whole what REmake was to RE1 and the franchise.
I'm also surprised at the output. I feel like i have doubts it would have been as great if there wasn't such a large team of advisors working with them to keep them on track. Not to mention Masahiro Ito and Akira Yamaoka. I'll be on board for them to remake other SH games assuming they can maintain these advisory teams lol
I will always wonder how someone who is as awesome as you are doesn't have a bigger following. People are missing out on the best streamer out there. Tyvm for everything Bawk! ❤
I was singing the games praises on another video, and some guy told me all the reviews were mainly negative before they were removed. He also called it a "Last of us ripoff simulator." People like that guy are impossible. I've played a few hours, and it blew me away very quickly. The funny thing is, the majority of videos I see on RUclips are praising it. The atmosphere and exploration is pretty much perfect.
I don't see the similarity either, haha. Personally, I think the remake is how the game would have been if the original was released today. I mean, what could possibly be done differently? The game makes me wary about if / when / how I should engage with the monsters, and that's just on normal difficulty. It makes me cautious about moving forward, but not too comfortable in staying put either. They've done really well. Imagine them doing Silent Hill P.T.
@@stefanjackson1127 I played on Hard and got my ass kicked for a good 40% of the game, but I became a godlike monster killing machine by the end of the game. Then I got to the final boss and I actually gave up for the night, but finally beat it after a good night's sleep 💪
Audio desync issue around 1:19:00 to 1:20:00 not a big deal tho just some weird editing going on there. Loving the new hype Silent Hill 2 Remake playthrough Bawk! James needs to wash his damn hands.
51:30 one bawk I love you two, I'd watch more but I'm past Hospital and don't want spoilers but FUCK, it's hard to play this game (in a good way!) finally, I can't find the piece that plays at 51:30 even in the full album teasers, it's a thumbing bass with a chocked female wail
This gives me last of us 2 vibes. Just the 3rd person, they way the character moves, interact with items and opening the map. I like the way this looks and never played silent hills. happy for another bawk playthrough!
Your chat seems so back and forth, this looks trash, and then this is amazing! idk I love this shit I played for 7hrs straight and couldn't put it down and had to stop myself that's a good game to me
There's thousands of comments a day, its super easy to just focus on the negative few & also there's a lot of sarcasm in chat! Most of both chats absolutely loved it :D
and you got mad in the chat room saying the combat is going to be just like it is not going to be fix but i told you it is going to be fix i was right and the chat room was right all along
This game looks great, even in 1080p, DLSS Koala Tea mode with High textures, low shadows and medium shaders. I highly recommend 1080p if anyone has a 8GB card cause at 1440p it runs very close to the VRAM limit.
I'm really enjoying this stream, but "bloober cooked" gets super irritating after a while. I feel like I'm stuck in the car with my brother on an overly long drive.
I can't believe my favorite streamer, James KennedyBasoup, is playing Silent Hill 2 Remake, what a time to be alive.
What a coincidence! He's my favorite too. Makes me wonder why I only watch him on YT
A shit time to be alive more like
ive played 9 hours so far and im not joking when i say ive walked about 95% of the time, this game is so immersive its insane
Same
@@ShiftyMoses sameeee
My favorite part was when chat would say “Ada wait!” Every time Ada would stop to take a break.

Turned out to be one of the best remakes of all time imo. I'm all in for Bloober remaking SH1, 3 and 4 now
4 is trash, swap it for origins
If Konami actually does their job instead of making Pachinko machines. You just know a SH2 Remake pachinko is in the works
@@starman5901get out
@@starman5901 you mad
@@starman5901it’d be odd to do the original 3 by team silent and then not do the 4th one by team silent.
For the pizza line, when you find the flashback in the bowling alley James says 'Who could just sit here and eat pizza?'

Bawk finally showing off his luscious locks
Those health drinks are weird, they make your body suck the blood on your jacket back inside.
I can't believe Leon Scott Kennedy is playing Silent Hill 2 Remake.
What's Leon supposed to do, go to bingo?
I was just thinking "I wish there was a video I could like, comment, and watch right now" and boom! New Bawk video! Crazy how that works.
How can you just sit there and eat Grecos pizza?
I will always wonder how someone who is as awesome as you are doesn't have a bigger following. People are missing out on the best streamer out there. Tyvm for everything Bawk! ❤
13:54 That's what she said.
"someone cooked here"❤🔥
If you examine the pizza box, he says something similar to the pizza line
Nothing could have prepared me for the first 3 seconds of this video. I am figuratively deceased rn.

Watching bawk strim and liking the RUclips videos at the same time ❤
Never played SH2, loving this, and your playthrough!
FINALLY the hat comes off and we see those luscious locks
Guess I'll cave in and watch lol. Have it installed but no time to play yet, doubt I'll get any spoilers since having already played the OG.
at around 1:59:00 that's Mary's last breath which can be heard a few times throughout the game
bloober cooked
Bawks the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral, dont understand what i mean? Then you soon will 🎶 🎵
thanks for the vid, the hair, the pizza and the fun time! love ya buddy
This remake is up there with RE1 Remake
I can't believe a bawkbasoup video just went, I have to come and like and comment because its just so good.
looking forward to the unedited version of this, I like seeing all the details of the game in the vods.
Bawk this editing is hilarious
Ive been a big fan of the franchise since Ascension, super excited to see if this can top that!!!
I hope James doesn't take that prank note from his neighbor seriously

the transformation into a french canadian is complete. cold coffee, stale bread, cheap smokes and the french shaved double chin!
A nice positive thing
Anyone knows what is this wall for 2:10:57 , I mean you can interact with it but nothing really happens
Silent hill has the best videogame soundtrack of all time
In my opinion, this is the best remake since Resident Evil (GameCube).
The audio gets really out of sync like an hour in then is silent for a bit before fixing itself at 1:20:42 . Very weird.
A nice and positive thing
This was great to watch!
Nice positive thing.. :D
Great game just finished my second playthrough
How would you rate the game mr kennedy?
Thank you.
2:50:00 what does the sirens mean? What is happening.
51:30
one bawk I love you
two, I'd watch more but I'm past Hospital and don't want spoilers but FUCK, it's hard to play this game (in a good way!)
finally, I can't find the piece that plays at 51:30 even in the full album teasers, it's a thumbing bass with a chocked female wail
A nice positive comment for you Mr Soup!
That thumbnail is cursed lmaoo
part 2 when? This is good!
1:09:02 yeah but doesnt beat the RE:2 burger that trucker had man that burger was bussin
Awesome video!
Haha, Bawk lost about half his age just by shaving, now he looks 16.
hi bawk, just curious how you staying on 60 fps? are you playing in 4k?my computer is having a heart attack every time i run the game lol thanks man!
Bawk said I have to comment on this Video (positive) 😂

Game looks great. Only criticism is that James comes off too normal in conversation for the shit he's doing.
Still not sure why not remake first game then this
👍

kind of look like an ex of mine lol

this is not a nice, positive comment
this is a guy that goons and cooms to drawings of anime girls. and says it's a cool normal thing to do. we should trust his opinions on games.
