Thanks for your replies! I've started playing SH2 remake just today and I'm thoroughly enjoying it thus far. Bloober Team really surprised me with this one.

I'm finding this hard to articulate without rambling but despite enjoying it, I'm not feeling truly immersed in the moment-to-moment gameplay as much as I'd like to be. The reason being this is my first exposure to SH2 and I personally feel like I'm trying to retroactively "catch-up" on almost 20 years of missed themes and nostalgia, therefore I'm trying to absorb & consider every element of the story a li'l too much.

Phenomonal sound design btw.

Definitely the Silent Hill series for me. We were more of a Resident Evil household growing-up

First memory of books that made me a voracious li'l reader were the Selby series by Duncan Ball.

Pre-consciousness I'm told it was The Little Mouse, The Red Ripe Story and the Big Hungry Bear 🐻

I'm chuffed it's a one-time purchase. Before release I only had the option to pre-download and I was a bit fearful of inevitably sinking cash on microtransactions (despite the dev being vocally against predatory practices)

Update: Transaction declined! They really are considerate of taking my money!
