The fact that this was the follow-up to Silent Hill 2 and is still revered as a good game is the kind of nonsensical feedback Silent Hill shouldn't be receiving especially not after 2 decades.

This game is shit on every level, it has the WORST story in the franchise where you have your sassy female protagonist whose just fucking yapping her stupid ass mouth, so quirky bro here's her zinger no#2314832 before she faces off against a boss. Her entire persona is supposed to contrast James Sunderland, the previous protagonist, but her dialogue is so bad that it's past the point of being "so bad it's good" and is JUST bad.

Oh you remember how lousy SH2 combat was? All we did was put more guns in and extended a bit of the movement vocabulary, now you can keep fighting in this shitty game that ages poorly every single fucking day. Instead of the rustic empty horror of SH2, SH3 has "purgatory" where everything is fleshy and gore-y, the game over-relies on graphic depictions as well as body horror (such as the scene where Heather "aborts" the fetus of god), and if you want a soft reminder about my stance on the occult heavy SH stories they all fucking suck ass.

All in all one of the worst sequels I have ever played, the only redeeming factor being the opening song which I fucking love. Shit game.
