No-aim shots are so high because I emptied every single weapon I had before the final boss because I was told there was an easter egg for doing so

I mean what do you score it?

You use a guide?

Assuming ya did since I feel like Good+ is too cryptic to get naturally.

ehhhh like a 6/10 idk i really didn't enjoy playing it at all even though i recognize the metric ton of effort that went into it

I was only told the things I needed to do to get Good+, the rest of the game was blind.

So my memory is total shit but I believe the explanation is Cheryl was possessed by one of the Silent Hill demons from Dahlia's cult and they needed her to complete some ritual but Harry ruins everything and escapes with a purified Cheryl.

unfortunately, I could never get used to the tank controls (with fixed camera angles), so I dropped the game pretty early.

I liked the aesthetic, though, from what I've seen.

Kinda Dahlia and her cult used her teenage psychicly attuned daughter to summon a demon. They set her on fire but the ritual did't complete - instead she projected a part of herself as a baby out of the village (either intentionally or accidentally, I'm not sure which). Harry and his wife found the baby and raised her as their own, not aware of her background/powers. When Harry and Cheryl were driving past Silent Hill, the connection between Alyssa and Cheryl flared up, pulling the town into the mist/alternate world. Playing through the game you see parts of the story (the nurse being the one that was forced to care for burned Alyssa, etc.) and stop Dahlia from completing the ritual (as Cheryl returning was the last missing part of Alyssa's power). This is why the Good plus ending has you exorcising the demon from Alyssa, killing it, and then she thanks you by giving you a baby - a new projection of her.

You might like Parasite Eve. Made by Squaresoft. Kind of a mix of survival horror and jrpg. It's a jrpg set in modern (well modern when the game was made) New York City

Already have, and it's one of the funniest games I've ever played. For reference, I've played the following:
Resident Evil 1-3 + Survivor
Silent Hill 1
Parasite Eve
Dino Crisis 1

And if you also saved Cybil Bennett, you get a new opening with her instead of Harry's wife, with the baby.

Kouldeka

that game is too tough imo. i ended up playing it with that hyper blaster pistol the entire game (i used cheats). it was the only way i could have beat it

I think about half that lore was added after Silent Hill Origins.

I was never good at FPS or Uncharted style games (whatever they were called back in the PS1 era) - the first part of SH was really tough, until I got the sledgehammer/fire ax thing. Though it made you stationary, timing the swings got sooooooooo much easier, and they were almost always fatal with one blow! I remember my whole experience of the game changing to a "come get some" attitude...

Thats PS2 @Ruvan22

there's also Nightmare Creatures, but that's more action-horror, iirc.

same with Shadow Man.
