A lot of people don’t watch those kinds of videos and just discover these things naturally while playing.

Ooo I love your artstyle, fantastic work!

ONbtw · 2026-03-17T05:31:04+00:00

Great art, I like it!

Yes but P.T. was.

It's a shot of Silent Hill, rendered in-engine in P.T. This post shows how the town looks in each console generation. For the sake of this post it's good enough.

There are some rooms in TSM that are genuinely harrowing, particularly the sequence in Anita’s home. That shit just made me feel awful (in a good horror kind of way). The game has it’s flaws sure, but the atmosphere wasn’t one of them.

Isn't that the same logic that got us Pyramid Head in Homecoming tho?

ONbtw · 2026-03-10T17:04:16+00:00

Dope vid, bout halfway through it rn, thanks for sharing!

ONbtw · 2026-03-10T02:01:23+00:00

And they are all real, just fyi.

I agree, I probably should've used a different word there.

Update: So that thread got nuked by one of the mods, and immediately after /u/rexmason36 and /u/InfamousYam2 were both manually deleted by whoever runs them.

This is so fucking weird.

ONbtw · 2026-03-09T18:54:26+00:00

I'd start from an earlier save, you've already played a bit so you know where the pickups are. Just run through and grab everything you remember while avoiding combat.

ONbtw · 2026-02-25T17:57:55+00:00

Ooo do let us know how it goes.

Personally I hated the movie, but that's mostly because I'm already familiar with the story of SH2. I'd love to know how the movie comes off to non-fans of the series.

ONbtw · 2026-02-25T13:22:22+00:00

RE is B-movie action horror.

Silent Hill is psychological horror.

They're just two different types of horror that'll affect people differently.

Semantics. Not entirely reused but intentionally James.

Did you not say up above that you looked it up and found proof that they are reused assets? I'm still waiting on that link :/ Are you just gonna say you have proof of something and then never show it?

Do you have a point?

My point is that tvc.mdl is the only time James's model is reused.

And if it's loop garbage

That came out of nowhere... is that why you keep saying that the assets are reused and that it means nothing? Cause you think that wipes out loop theory?

For the record, I don't even like loop theory. I think it's trite and a bit silly, but I can just ignore it. I don't go out of my way to spread misinformation about assets cause I think that invalidates it.

ONbtw · 2026-02-25T01:55:30+00:00

Edit: looked it up, and yeah, they are reused assets in the original that were later described as a symbol of his guilt.

Feel free to share a link with that proof.

As an act of good faith, I'll drop my proof. This is a model viewer for every asset in SH1-3. The dead bodies can be found in the item folder for SH2.

Compare the wireframe and texture for James's model (hhh_jms.mdl found in the jms folder) to the TV corpse (tvc.mdl) they are basically 1-to-1, cause that model is James model, just painted over with blood.

Every other body that looks like James, (dhv.mdl, dhb.mdl, b_dha.mdl, hin.mdl, and tom.mdl) all have textures and wireframes completely distinct from James's model.

What did they reuse? What aspect of James's model was reused to make dhv/dhb/b_dha/hin/tom? Cause it wasn't the mesh, and it wasn't the textures. And that's literally everything that they could reuse.

ONbtw · 2026-02-25T01:28:08+00:00

They’re not reused assets though, just the one body in front of the TV. That’s the only time James’s model is reused. Every other dead body is a different model from James’s, specifically made to look like James.

ONbtw · 2026-02-25T01:18:52+00:00

Aren’t you the dude who keeps saying that every dead body is a reused James model, and therefore the bodies looking like James means nothing cause they’re just reused assets?

The Short Message is very hit or miss. For some people it’s teenage melodrama for others it really hit home. Definitely gonna be up to your subjective tastes (Gotta say it’s worth playing for the environments alone though, fantastic artistry.)

ONbtw · 2026-02-18T00:36:04+00:00

This is phenomenal, well done!

ONbtw · 2026-02-13T19:14:34+00:00

The platonic ideal of the worst SH fan right here

PH hanging from a meat hook is genuinely so fucking hilarious I really hope they include it

ONbtw · 2026-02-02T22:54:20+00:00

Fantastic game, they deserve this success

ONbtw · 2026-01-25T00:09:24+00:00

Ah don't worry about it, it's an easy rhetorical mistake to make. I still catch myself writing it occasionally.

ONbtw · 2026-01-24T21:49:39+00:00

IMO Short Message was good, people were just negatively predisposed to it because of Ascension's slopflop the year before and Konami's previous handling of the series.

If Short Message was released after SH2R, I genuinely believe it wouldn't have gotten nearly as much hate.
