The first-person apartment sequences are still incredibly ahead of their time and don't get enough credit. My Dad and I were mind blown watching the bustling city outside the window, which at the time seemed like a real-to-life world. All running in real-time on a freakin' PS2!

Such a shame Tommy Wiseau's movie adaptation of this didn't really pan out so well.

An interesting note. At the very beginning of the game (Henry's Dream sequence), you're actually seeing through the eyes of Joseph Schreiber, Room 302's previous occupant who met with same fate of being locked inside, as well being able to travel through the holes to the various otherworlds, just like Henry. This is who Jasper is referring to as "the nosey guy". The red diary pages received throughout the game also belonged to Schreiber.
Clearly, he never escaped the room, possibly becoming another victim of Walter Sullivan. Or most likely killed by the ghost who comes through the apartment wall at the start of the game.
You can tell you're not playing as Henry in the intro by examining some of the items in the apartment, the biggest tell being a portrait of the protagonist hanging in Henry's bedroom, whom Schreiber notes he doesn't recognise.
Like Walter Sullivan, Joseph Schreiber also gets a mention in a previous Silent Hill game. He's the author of a magazine article about the Cult, which Heather finds in SH3.

"The best" voice acting in Silent Hill is like saying "This is the LEAST curdled month old warm milk I've ever tasted"

Respectfully, I wholeheartedly disagree with your statement about keeping the room a safe heaven for the entirety of the game. The concept of the room being your sanctuary and the place where you take a break from the horrors of the outside world getting taken away from you, was one of the most effective things that made this game so scary for me. Every time I was outside, I couldn't wait to go into my room and just take a breather and explore details and relax for a bit before getting the courage to go back out. Then the game takes that safety away and makes the room the last place you want to be in. Nowhere is safe now; I thought that was such a genius and effective concept. You can argue that by having the inventory system of the previous 3 games would fix the issues you mentioned about how frustrating it was to juggle items, and just keep the room as the place where you save the game, forcing you to go in there still. But having the room be a safe place throughout the whole game? With all due respect. HELL NAH

The OST for this game is fucking INSANE, shame most of the tracks don't play in full during the game.

Highlighting the reference from SH2 like Rachel who is Mary’s nurse and the superintendent who is James’s father. Anybody else think that SH2 Neely’s bar message “there was a hole here, it’s gone now” is linked to the hole in SH4?

You are doing great, son. Me and your mother are very proud of you.
Just don't strain yourself too much.

I loved The Room, I think because I’m an introvert and coming back home to an apartment felt safe lol, it might have been haunted as shit but it was something to go back too.

I'm rewatching this again, and I wanted to mention a "cheese strat" where you can allow Eileen to take as much damage as you want, and as long you use one of the healing candles right outside the final boss room, she'll be fully healed (or very close to it) and she'll walk as slowly as she possibly can during the fight proper.
I thought I was so clever as a kid, haha

Henry is my favorite SH protagonist because he is just some rando.
He didn't choose the responsibility of being a parent, he didn't kill anyone, he isn't magic or special. He's just some dude who needs to survive through the powerlessness of being thrown into someone else's nightmare.
Adding to that, there is some depth in Henry's behavior. Henry behaves like he has already suffered some long term abuse prior to moving into the apartment. The quiet way he accepts a horrible situation with very little protest, but still begs for help when there's people outside his door seems more like the way someone with cPTSD readily accepts and functions horrible situations with occasional bouts of desperation/panic bleeding over. He also is extremely motivated by the need to protect someone from a situation he has endured, which is also a common characteristic of survivors of abuse.
There's more, but tl;dr is it's an intriguing layer to the main character that I'm glad we don't find out more in the game so players can speculate or read the character however they like. For example, Henry having depression is a valid read as well.

Walter is a great villain, the deeper you dig the more interesting he is. Kindov like SH4 as a whole.

I‘ve said it before but I’m extremely impressed at your output. I can tell you really want this and you truly deserve it too. I hope you don’t burn yourself out thought. Stay safe, Son.

In my opinion, this is the most intriguing story of the whole franchise.

I have a wierd love for this game. Henry Townsend is an amazing hero. He's a simple man. Finds serial killer ritual in his apartment,stops death ritual. His desire to protect Ilene is very relatable, even if it's an indulgence in some ways. We all have a traumatized princess that we wanted to save.

This is definitely my favorite silent hill title conceptually. The atmosphere of this game is so heavy, it makes it hard to breathe. This is the only title in the franchise that consistently manages to make me feel disturbed and uneasy. Its fantastic, the way the game just absolutely twists the concept of safety, sanctity. Beautiful. And the OST, although not my favorite overall (Silent Hill 3 has that) but that ambient track, i can never remember its name, but its the best mood song of the whole franchise

idk why but this Silent Hill scared me the most out of them all. It was always unsettling coming back to that apartment in first person to find out you were being haunted more and more as the game went on. Also, living in shit apartments is relatable to me, that in itself is terrifying.

i love the way you mentioned how fond you were of the game as a child, and remembering your parents play it. it just goes to show how great and lasting this series is, and how it endures the test of time when we pass these silent hill stories onto the next generation to experience them :)

4 did so much right... until it turns into one long escort mission. Regardless, super frustrating and so different from the previous entries, the room is still a classic. Thanks for the great video Son, don't forget your mother though
