You need to think deeply about this. It's not as clear cut as you might think.

I feel like in racoon city you'd at least die quickly. Silent Hill generally likes to fuck with it's victims first

Physically scary? Raccoon City. Youre far more likely to die there.

But Silent Hill will mess with your head and drive you insane. It might not kill you but it will make you want it too.

Isn't Silent Hill (at least in some cases) tailored to your own fears? I think that'd be more scary.

There's nothing scary about racoon city, other than zombie dogs coming out of windows or just set on fire running at you.

Silent Hill is scary af and will definitely mess with your head.

Yup. So if your fear is raccoon city then it'll turn into raccoon city.

In Silent Hill, you also need to overcome your fears and confront your demons to be allowed out. If you try to escape, it will follow you into other towns, trick you into thinking youre free, or straight up kill you as punishment.

Raccoon City

its literally run by Umbrella and full of monsters

Silent Hill is a quiet tourist trap town for 87% of people.

But in RE games they have police stations essentially with no guns or ammo. Like re2-3 you find like 2 guns there?

Maybe Raccoon City just has really strict gun laws?

Just cry it out. The monster see you feel bad.

Unless its the cult which are actual monsters that will murder you. Like follow you home and murder you.

I don't know if you're trolling or not, but that's not even close and none of the cults in the SH games have any true power over the town's power.

All the rules for each SH are broad and different. 1/3 have a cult that can make them affect different areas and seemingly get them to attack targets. 1 has certain inspired enemies while 2 is really just the town affecting a select group independently. 4 has an antagonist that seems to have power from it while the monsters seem to attack people around the area for a certain reason. Origins attacks an innocent person trying to help. Shattered memories is extremely isolated. Homecoming affects a few select and downpour continues to affect a few select.

Sure, cult attacks someone with a monster.

It's not as clear cut as you might think.

Except it is. Raccoon City is just a regular city, with the notable exception of a shady, shadowy pharmaceutical that does unethical experimentation. Silent Hill is literally a location of judgment, steeped in centuries of abuse, corruption, and savagery that has influenced the reality bending effects that town can enact whenever it feels when a human steps into its realm.

Harry is, by all rights, a fucking saint.

He adopted a lost girl and raised her well like she was his own daughter, and saves Cybil from demonic possession when it's far easier and safer to just kill her. He never did anything wrong, not like James anyway.

It's not just about confronting your demons. The city also has a self defense instinct.
