The amount of work that these people put into this game, even the minute details and small irks that I have NEVER noticed before, deserve to be applauded.

This is the GOLD STANDARD for how to fix and improve a PC Port that has been abandoned by a developer.

Also. Silent Hill 2 Enhanced Edition has long been the superior way to experience Silent Hill 2, even compared to the original PS2 release. This update makes my opinion DEFINITIVE.

I am begging you to give Silent Hill 2 a playthrough using these enhancements, especially now with Silent Hill 2 Remake on the Horizon (My god, please be decent)

coming out of a bit of a slump in terms of Published Creations this summer but I'm really happy with how these two previews from the same event came out:

Previews are weird and I don't typically enjoy writing them much but playing these two back to back and then getting to sit down and really think about What Is Going On With Remakes was satisfying. I don't think I exactly broke any new ground but it's nice to go a little deeper than "yeah game probably pretty good, not surprising since it was already beloved." I hope they read interestingly as a pair.

The discourse around silent 2 remake being good or not or questions about resemblance are pointless given remakes are inherently creatively bankrupt. Until remakes come with a copy of the original built in they are pointless and a waste of resources.
