^^anytime
Btw I reached into the sewers
Though the game has lost the Silent Hill feel (except for music). Alex is much capable but so does enemies. The Police Station level was indeed a ride through the hordes of Schisms and then if it was not enough, a Siam too.
Escorting Elle was a surprise and that too in that tense encounter
Like and ordinary girl but still she has charm and some really amusing habit (cower up when some enemy comes etc.). Infact she didn't block my path anytime !
About the enemies:
Nurse (when you see jiggling jugs then its them
) [3 Light Knife attack + 1 Heavy Knife Attack]- Use the knife combo, it works flawless without any damage taken. Oh and just remember to switch off your flash light and if possible that noisy radio too if you spot nurses, they don't like lights and noise much. But if you miss the magic combo then prepare yourself to get laid by their insane combo unless you dodge or retreat. I died when one of them pushed the knife through my heart
A heat breaking death
Ferals (Dogs without a fur or skin) [3 Light Knife Attacks] - Do not go for a Heavy knife attack unless you wants to get bitten. Just use Light Attacks and you should be able to deal with them withing half a minute
Leaper (the water loving) [Use Pipe or Knife]: this one is easy but looks intimidating. Perhaps I do need to master a fool proof strategy against it. But remember a Pipe is good against it, just follow a Light + Heavy combo. And remember to dodge. Sometimes you will be given a hint for lethal move too.
Needler (one with blades as appendages) [Use Pipe or Knife]- Pipe works well here too, though he may grapple you for a head knife kill. Better left or right dodge him and then use the same combo as for leaper. Though it will take more time but you will be guaranteed with a satisfying lethal kill.
Siam (the one with large Cylindrical arms and a woman at the back side) [3 shots from Shotgun ]- These are the most aggressive ones. Make a clear distance so that you can fire 3 shotgun rounds easily. Make sure you don't get plummeted by him+her, its the worst thing that you can expect. Have ammo for shotgun always.
Schims (the one with sharp hammer heads) [1 shot of Shotgun + 1 Heavy attack using Axe]- Do not make a distance when you are fighting it as it can lunge towards you and grapple you for a mid torso dismemberment (the worst kind of death I have seen in Silent Hill till now). Else if you are capable of running then you can avoid it in Police Station part. It may be necessary to fight it later levels, I will update the first post after having a solid encounter with it
Though have some shotgun ammo as they go down with one shot generally, then if you are not sure then just flip out Axe and do a Heavy Attack.
Sepulcher (First Boss with meat sacs balancing it) - It's fairly easy boss fight just keep on running circularly and take cover at the 3 shelf. Shoot the sacs three times with pistol to blast them off, rinse and repeat. The Boss will come down and will do swipe attacks with both arms, one at a time, dodge or roll. The pounding attack on floor is the second type of attack which will be your advantage as his hands will get stuck in floor. Time to whip out Axe and do a Heavy attack on the hand. His head will fall down to floor, then do another Heavy attack to his head. Now run away as it will gain control soon, do the same strategy of Heavy attack again, it will die
Game is not scary for me anymore, a bit of action hack n slash now. But still a decent game with some nostalgia (references from previous Silent Hill games
).
