The devil is in the details always. The game can make an innocent looking room with no enemies, a giant mirror, and sink become the scariest thing you've ever encountered in your life. The game gets more character mileage out of Heather remarking about a barbecued dog than other games do with entire scripts and bombastic cutscenes. The game takes time to develop a character that's never even seen, a hospital patient with a crush stalking Heather through Brookhaven. He makes his presence feel known despite his physical absence and his arc is a little touch of creepy and poignant. You would never think a file-only character can be a character you say you like a lot. The game has some of the most devious puzzles you'll ever find in gaming; make sure you pack your Shakespeare knowledge if you're planning to play this on hard puzzle difficulty. How can you not love a game with the guts to make that an actual thing you need to learn and know?

I understand why SH3 often gets overlooked. Silent Hill 2 is a perfect game after all, a game so in-tune with all elements of its design that it almost can't be topped by anything. Silent Hill 3 is often criticized for not changing the gameplay enough, its short length, for playing it too safe. In my eyes though, Silent Hill 3 is every bit as perfect as Silent Hill 2. It's at some points scarier, has stronger characters, and the same excellent attention to every minor detail of the world. The best way I can sum up SH3 is as a different side of the same coin, expanding on what SH2 did right whilst adding some personality of its own for that unique horror experience that Silent Hill fans crave.
