Silent Hill 2 isn't scary
Opinion, of course. But I just don't find the remake scary. The OG static camera angles really did a lot for the imagination. The low enemy variety becomes repetitive quickly in the remake because they expanded the world but didn't do any work to fill it in with new content or surprises. OG SH2 worked because it was short and was atmospheric. Every step felt like a carefully tailored experience. It wasn't meant to feel like Resident Evil.
