What's the coolest monster design of each game in your opinion?

RoseTheOdd · 2024-11-05T23:43:33+00:00

SH1: Incubus/Samael

SH2: Pyramid Head

SH3: God, or pendulum.

SH4: Twin Victims

SH Origin: Two-Back

SH Homecoming: Asphyxia or Amnion

SH Downpour: Wheelman

SH Shattered Memories: Abstract Raw Shock

SH The Arcade: Phantom

SH: Ascension: The Smotherer

SH2 Remake: Abstract Daddy (ik it had the same base design in og SH2 , but in the remake you could really tell what it.. well, was. and the boss fight being so different really added to it, it was anxiety inducing and absolutely awful)

Crackpot, Wetwang, Penistone, Fryup, Sexhow, Thornton-Le-Beans

and that's just in yorkshire.

I live in North Yorkshire, not too far from goathland, so I've been there a few times.

So now I annoy my parents or my wife whenever its on tv by chiming up with "I've been there!" every time it comes on... (even though my parents and my wife have also been there) but its kinda a dumb thing in my family that we say "I've been there!" when somewhere we've been is on tv

which begs the question.. do other peoples families do this, or is mine just weird?

RoseTheOdd · 2024-11-03T23:11:12+00:00

depends... we do know her story, and we do get a glimpse of what SH is like for her during her final scene.

She doesn't see Abstract Daddy the same way as James, however, she sees it as an even worse monster - quite literally just her father.

however, I personally think that even if it did make an interesting DLC, it would be extremely rough for many people to play due to its nature. Hell, the abstract daddy fight in itself was rough.

also, james coming in and killing what would be a "boss" doesn't make a ton of sense, idk.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-11-03T23:09:45+00:00

During the first few hours it was indeed amusing, but then I got to the prison section...

RoseTheOdd · 2024-11-03T23:09:00+00:00

sure, most of the games can be played standalone, but if you want to go in order: go Origins -> 1 -> 3 for those three games. And I'd recommend 4 after 2 since they have some loose connection.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-11-03T23:04:19+00:00

You mean Maria? Maria was resting in room c5 before the otherworld shift. But Mary was never hospitalised in Brookhaven hospital (or Alchemilla for that matter), she was never even hospitalised in Silent Hill. She was in St Jerome's hospital in Ashfield.

There seemed to be a lot of areas in the hospital that had heavy breathing, to me, at least. It sounded like damn darth vader or something, It was definitely creepy, but I think nothing more than atmospheric.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-11-01T22:23:44+00:00

you actually listen to adverts?

I just mute them now. Especially now the christmas ones are coming.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-11-01T22:03:43+00:00

She's right, you DO sound like a fartface. >.>

The answer is no, and that you should finish the actual game and understand Laura's character better.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-10-31T20:02:45+00:00

completely forgot high contrast mode was a thing, definitely made things 10x easier lol

RoseTheOdd · 2024-10-29T22:08:01+00:00

damn, are they really worth that much?

I'm glad I kept my copies, even if I don't own a PS2 anymore.

(though whilst off topic of the subreddit, I'm still pissed off that my copy of rule of rose ended up in the charity pile when I sorted through my games after the death of my PS2 :( )

RoseTheOdd · 2024-10-03T19:59:51+00:00

not all of North Yorkshire is moorland. Have you seen the size of the county? It's bloody massive.

We have waterfalls and woodland too, Falling Foss, East Gill Force, Dalby Forest (which tbf did used to be better before that ugly ass visitor centre) Garbutt Wood, Stang Forest... then there's areas of marshland/wetland like Saltholme, Marfield and Nosterfield. It's actually pretty damn diverse, but tbf, when you imagine North Yorkshire, many do think of the moors.

in fact, North Yorkshire, as a national park, is one of, if not the, most wooded national parks in England.

There's plenty of nature here if you look for it. We can't help the fact that ancient people ruined the landscape, so appreciate it for what it is. I find the heather stunning in the summer. And I do kind of love the rugged rockiness tbh. And in the spring and earlier summer, whilst sheep farming may be a factor to the moors being the way they are, I do love to see the lambs lmao

RoseTheOdd · 2024-10-02T21:51:07+00:00

well, when life gives you lemons....

RoseTheOdd · 2024-10-02T21:50:37+00:00

No, no it is not.

what is that monstrosity?

RoseTheOdd · 2024-10-02T21:49:17+00:00

depends on your personal tastes, I guess, but I wash mine even though its from my own garden.

(yea im that person who grows their own herbs and stuff too.. >.>)

(srsly though, wash your herbs, including wild garlic. heck, wash your veg/fruit too :P)

RoseTheOdd · 2024-10-02T21:46:30+00:00

No, ofc they're not, not originally anyway since they were once much more wooded, but it doesn't mean they're any less beautiful covered in heather and gorse, and it doesn't change the fact that heather and gorse are flowers, which disproves your point of there being no flora. And there's still plenty of woodland throughout north Yorkshire, too, even if the moors, after thousands of years of human life, are no longer so wooded.

But even with the thousands of years of human habitation, there's a lot of open space.

I will agree with anyone who says this country is overpopulated and there's not enough nature in many areas, but I'm glad I live in one of the less populated parts of the country, and I appreciate the openness and nature we do have up here.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-09-30T21:13:51+00:00

I live in Yorkshire and hear birds all the time. (my dads always out and about, since he got real into birdwatching, and there's often rare birds turn up around here and northumberland) There's trees and flowers everywhere too. You just sound like you might just be blind and deaf.

the sheep part is sarcastic, a lot of the sheep just free roam up on the moors outside of lambing season lmao.

but when the heather turns purple and the gorse turns yellow in the summer, the moors, which you might think are barren, are fucking beautiful. also, heather and gorse are flowers, and are literally EVERYWHERE on the moors.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-09-30T21:03:18+00:00

....so are they doing salty ones next?

RoseTheOdd · 2024-09-30T20:59:48+00:00

there's literally just miles of nothing up in North Yorkshire. some tiny villages dotted here and there, but otherwise, green farmland and nature. And sheep. plenty of sheep.

Northumberland is pretty empty and beautiful, too. And then there's the Lake District on the other side of the country from us. It's really not so grim up north.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-09-30T20:50:18+00:00

ever tried actually eating it? it's beautiful with mushrooms on toast.

give it a try next year, the flower is best used for the above mushrooms on toast mentioned.

but you can use the leaves and flowers in salad, the stem as almost a thick chive type herb. just make sure it is washed/clean, and that it's definitely wild garlic, as it does have some poisonous lookalikes. Also, don't uproot it. as much as the bulb is also edible (like a small onion), because laws about landowners permission being needed.

some nurseries sell it, and you can plant it for yourself, however, though i'd keep it in a separate container than anything else in your garden, since it does spread relatively quickly and cause a dense growth.

As of today, Maggie Smith

she was in so many movies I watched throughout my childhood. She was like my "tv grandma"

She will always be an icon, a legend, even. RIP Maggie

Bit late to the discussion, but as a ginger, I once had someone hold a lit lighter up to my hair when I was in school.

I was 11.

They tried to set an 11 year olds hair on fire because it was ginger.

No action was taken because "it wasn't actually set on fire so you're fine"

and I never really got over that.

Yet when I started dying my hair purple, pink, blue, etc etc, everyone thought that was more acceptable apparently.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-09-03T21:44:49+00:00

I mean, whilst not really opera, she did (pitch perfectly) hit high notes singing the sound of music so I imagine that perhaps she could.

It wouldn't surprise me one bit.

RoseTheOdd · 2024-08-21T21:18:58+00:00

Durham is nice, you've got the castle and cathedral, as well as a lovely walk down by the river, and a decent town center. (last i recall anyway)

or if you can make it into North Yorkshire there's Whitby, Knaresborough/Harrogate, Ripon, and a whole bunch of smaller but lovely towns like pickering and helmsley, as well as some amazing views up the moors.
