There's a lot of this in silent Hill games actually. A weapon you wouldn't think to use in a situation ends up doing the most damage. Especially with bosses.
@@hidan407 me saying a lot may be an exaggeration. But I know there is a couple. The main one I remember is in silent Hill homecoming it's like a really big porcelain doll with flesh coming out of it, and the crowbar did more damage to it than anything in the game.
@@bigfatgaming5795 That is really interesting. I mean, its been a sorta game rule that melee is sometimes the best damage. It just comes with the close counter risk
@@hidan407 yeah that is a good point Mail I usually is pretty strong. It just always seemed weird to me that a flesh like monster takes more melee damage than bullet or explosive damage. If anything I would have thought it'd be the same if not more explosive damage.
I remember getting info from somebody back in the day that the first Pyramid Head boss fight didn't require bullets or hits. I tried it in the remake and it turned out to be the case, 20+ years later. Cool!

@zerotolerance9004 ...what are you talking about? There are parts of the game where you can walk up and see old puzzles and areas from the original game with a little chime. right before you encounter the new, changed versions. Like the prison puzzle or the tunnel where you first encounter a Lying Figure.
@@zerotolerance9004hey chud, this game isnt suppose to have fucking sex appeal, all manifestations of sex are directly related to abuse or rape you fucking incel
Here's a bigger tip. (at least for normal mode, idk if its the same in harder difficulties) If you enter the arena with over 30 bullets (that's 10|21) the you won't find any ammo, but if you have 30 bullets or less, then you'll find ammo, with there being more ammo found the less you enter with. I did some experimenting and: 0-8 bullets = +39 9-12 bullets = +23 13-19 bullets = +19 20-22 bullets = +12 23-30 bullets = +9 31+ bullets = 0 That means that if you 46 bullets or less, it's actually a good idea to waste all but 8 bullets, so that the game will give you an extra 39 bullets. Unfortunately for me, that info wasn't too useful for me, since I left the apartment with 75 bullets.
@@ldw_sparky are you sure about that? Cause I counted total (meaning 10|20=30), and if the game only counts the bullets not loaded into your gun, then why do you get +39 bullets when you have 0|0 to 8|0, but not when you have 9|0 or 10|0. If the only part that matters is the |0, the. It should be 0-10 bullets = +39, but I triple checked and if you have 9 or 10 bullets, then you only find 23 bullets around the arena (split up among 5 boxes, so I mean to say that the 5th box that contains 16 bullets, won't spawn in)
The dodge effect is extremely good. I did the same thing in the hallway several times without getting hit. I didn't realize you needed to run into the goo
Risk vs reward,it also makes sense lore wise since using a melee would require James to literally face his guilt getting upclose and personal,which helps him over come his punishment.
@@ians_parks I played this game like 10 times when over the years and never knew this is a timed event And I am glad I didn't. Besides of he's watching this he probably watched many other vids and spoilers.
I KNEW it. I was so pissed that I had over 40 bullets and had to empty every single round into him to end the fight quickly the first time I tried it, I knew that couldn't possibly be right and that the game couldn't possibly expect me to go on with zero bullets so I reloaded my save and just tried to outlast him. He did eventually get me, so I tried again and used about half as many bullets while trying to evade him and was able to end the fight with about 20 rounds remaining. I just freaking knew that it must be possible to end the fight without a single shot fired because they don't give you any ammo before you go into it!
For those who haven't played the OG, You could do the same by running circles around Pyramid Head until the siren goes off. I wasn'rmt sure if they'd keep it in
I had a suspicion that this seemed like a boss that required a similar gimmick. I thought he would injure himself through smashing the environment and I only used bullets as a last resort but it’s cool to know that it’s a timed event for a future playthrough.
Interesting to see Blooper team take advantage of Team Silent's old ideas. For those who don't know: the original Silent Hill games implimented a failsafe in some, if not most of their boss fights; failsafes designed for players who may have been lacking in ammo, or skill, to beat the bosses.
There's a reason for that, actually:) The more effort James put, the faster PH gives up. Since it takes more energy to swing a stick than pull the trigger, PH considers that effort as a sign that James wants to live. Running around is more effort, yes. But really. James has weapons, so if he doesn't use it, PH would think: is he hesitating? So he stays far longer. And yes yes, I'm spouting random horse crap. But thank you for getting this far. ❤
I died multiple times on hard and got tired of wasting ammo. I died as the siren went off and noticed it was going to end. That's when I realized it was timed. So I did it again and just survived. Hit him a little till the pipes burst. And then ran away for the rest. Saved my ammo and didn't get hurt.
My 1st playthrough was on Hard difficulty. After my 4 deaths, I found out it was a survival event because he got angry for no reason. I'm glad that was the case because I wasted meds and bullets and saved those for later
You know, I’ve always wondered that if you just ran around and did nothing to pyramid head it would actually skip to the cutscene and thank god for confirming that with me. It felt like I did no damage to pyramid head at all
I literally just kept dodging the dude after shooting it initially for 2 times and seeing ricochets in my first play through and it worked. I do believe the average experienced player won't keep emptying their previous ammo at the guy
From my understanding if its like the original all damage removes time from the clock, so while yes you only have to survive, fighting him makes it quicker
Well that depends on which scenario you face Pyramidhead. There's one scenario in the remake that waiting out a timeframe doesn't apply and you have to battle to defeat 'him'. But I don't want to give any specifics on which scenario I'm speaking of to avoid spoilers for those people who havn't played the game yet.
I just fought PH with the stick on hard as a challenge for myself, and sense I'm trying to get the "in water" ending I have to be at below 50% health for most of the game. It felt like playing Hellblade or a scary elden ring because I die after 1/2 hits. It was a fun way of training the movement and the frames of your swings.
Guess you just gotta use the stick, God gave ya.

To add to this - the game won't count the ammo that's already loaded into guns to determine how much it's going to give you.

Speedrunners taking notes rn
I remember in the original Silent Hill 2, the pyramid head used to have a slith in the middle of the lower torso.
Meanwhile a swedish teenage girl bodied him with a flashlight. Skill issue.
If you shoot or hit him the Silent Hill will be like "Okay, fine, stop hurting my boy and leave"
If you shoot him in the body it takes more damage. You were hitting it in the head so it took longer. Mine was only a minute and he ran away
For those who haven't played the OG, You could do the same by running circles around Pyramid Head until the siren goes off. I wasn'rmt sure if they'd keep it in
Nothing beats the nailed stick weapon 😂
The Pyramid Head is one of the most intimidating motherfucker that i ever faced he also moves quickly
Fighting the duel pyramid heads near the end was iconic they both impaled their necks with their spears
All of us who played the original game know that you should just run around until the siren sounds :)
Pyramid head is one of the most badass looking monsters in a video game
This battle means James starting to face reality. In other words, the more courage you have to face reality, the faster it will be.
