I played it for the first time recently and was impressed with SH2s story still holding up. It's got a good psychological plot with a twist or two that I hadn't absorbed by osmosis. The music is also very good. Cons: The voice acting is very, very bad. The actual gameplay is terrible old school adventure game nonsense where you find a key to find a key to find a key. It has that old school way of trying to squeeze perceived value out by wasting your time searching rooms and certain key items only show up in random places after invisible triggers. Everyone knows the combat is bad but the enemies are just harmless set dressing so it really is just like King's Quest but with a monster stumbling around making spooky noises nearby. I can see why it's a classic but also why a lot of the og fanbase never played REAL games. Theyr accursed adventure gamers

SH2 even has a secret puzzle difficulty that only unlocks after you've beaten easy, medium, and hard puzzle difficulty. It's also insane but has some very pretty writing in it.

Ended up repurchasing them along with a PS2 at a huge markup several years ago. At least 4 has a good GOG port.

not used to the awesome dndisms in bg3 like, an aoe that disarms you and makes your entire party run for two rounds, as just a thing someone can do instantly after dashing all the way across the map into a teleport into a spell

With Silent Hill I'd always go for Hard Puzzles and Normal Action. I did actually get the Shakespeare puzzle cause I'm a nerd.

Mary/Maria's voice actor is legit great and everyone else is suitably uncanny and off-putting

At least they haven't done that yet from what I've seen.

I'll say this about the big villain reveal in Pokemon Legends: Arceus, it was obvious from the very start but that was actually a really fun fight. I'd say my main complaint regarding the battles is that speed is apparently the only thing that matters, and it's calculated in an odd way where you've got a turn order cheat sheet thing but it's usually wrong, and defeating a pokemon is often a death sentence for your own as the one that replaces it is going to get 2-3 free attacks.

Chimera Squad was so thematically repellent that its gameplay being shittier, stupider XCOM 2 was a relief. Now I don't need to say that at least the lib cop fantasy improved the mechanics or something.
