Just beat the game and got the “in the water” ending.
8.5/10 game for me.

The Labyrinth was a low point for me.
Details of the story are too easy to miss and there’s a lot of key plot points that are inferred instead of being out right in your face.

Graphics are great and the sound design is top tier.

Saw the game has 8 possible endings.
I’m gonna put it down for a bit. While the game is excellent, the narrative themes are heavy as hell and not the type of game I have interest in running back to back. It’s truly the games strong point so that’s not necessarily a negative critique. They clearly nailed what they were going for. For me though, I think It’ll be quite a while before I circle back to this. It’s scary in a sense but I find more so that It’s just a really heavy feeling game that im not often in the mood for.

:martin: I felt waste all my heath drinks and syringes after fought against the damn Pyramid Head especially until I realzied.

Man, if you have a PS5 3D Audio and this game's 3D audio is so amazing :wow: For example, I noticed all the different sounds he is making while walking. When he started sloshing through mud It actually surprised me at how immersive it felt. And, they've also added so much more ambient sound it's insane :ohlawd:

Aight so...I'm at the end of this game but won't finish until tomorrow. Here are my thoughts as someone who has never played a Silent Hill game and is a Day 1 OG Resident Evil dude:

- I almost stopped playing 30 mins into it. Virtually nothing was happening except a lot of running and walking

- Interacting with objects with that little circle was/is janky as sh-t. I kept having to move around the circle to activate it...super annoying

- Graphics were cool but there was slow down at times when there was a lot of stuff on screen

- Them Levi jean nikkas was annoying as sh-t

- All the enemies were easy except the nurses and the sneaky Levi jean nikkas

- I thoroughly enjoyed the puzzles

- The story still doesn't make sense to me but again I'm not done

- Prolly coulda used one more weapon type

Overall, I'll give it a 7.5/10. I enjoyed playing it. How does this game compare to Alan Wake 2?
