Pennsylvania, USAOk that's fine. So, how does the Restart Level glitch work? Because I've been trying to duplicate what I see in the WR times and every time I do it, it doesn't work. It restarts but I end up not having the item I just picked up. I'm assuming it's timing but how do I know how to do it correctly?
or are all the cutscenes unskippable?
I know this is a stupid question but I've tried escape, enter, mouse, space, etc and nothing seems to skip the cutscenes. Escape brings up the menu and nothing else seems to do much of anything.
We checked their Twitch and Youtube - all their videos are gone (save 3 videos on Youtube and none of them are Home). I think Rapix would agree with me that for any WR, we need to be able to point to a video. If they would reupload it, we'll gladly reverify it.
Found another PC version for under $100. Bought it for the collection since I don't have this particular version.
Again, if you are patient and are willing to put in the work watching Ebay, Goodwill, etc. for deals, you WILL find it for under $100. This is the 4th time I've bought Silent Hill 2 on PC and this is actually the most expensive copy I've purchased at $76. Stay vigilant and you will get yourself a copy.
At this point I'm just buying any decent deal I see on Silent Hill games since the price just keeps going up and up. I'll make a killing selling all my extras one of these days lol
Has anyone figured out how to erase your progress on the PC version?
Played it last night and you do actually have to click on each of the developer commentary spots. So, it is very much the same as Gone Home's developer commentary mode.
Hi,
Can we get the Switch version added please? This new version (called Home: Postmortem Edition) allows you to skip text pretty fast so I have a feeling it will be one of the faster versions (if not THE fastest).
There is also developer commentary in this new version so we might even be able to add a new category for hitting all the commentary spots (I think you actually have to click on the hot spots to get the commentary to trigger). Gone Home has a similar category for the developer commentary mode in that game.
I'd be alright with merging them but I own the game on all platforms so I can run it wherever I want. I'd love to see a glitchless category too. Let's you actually play the game without skipping it all lol
Since it's an official release, it should be allowed but I'll let the mods weigh in on that.
A pretty high profile video game leaker on Twitter said that the hauntings that were previously missing from the PC release were here (or at least, the kitchen sink haunting was) but I've played through twice now and I haven't seen any of the missing hauntings. I've also heard from a few people in the community that they haven't either. I even tried grabbing the doll both times and putting it in the chest or carrying it around with me in the house. I tried cleansing the other hauntings (like the windows, clock, fridge, etc) to see if that would somehow trigger the other hauntings to show up and I saw nothing to indicate the missing hauntings are here.
So, unless we get a comment from someone more reliable, I think we can safely say the hauntings are still missing unfortunately.
I also have an issue no one else seems to be experiencing. I'm unable to alt+tab out of the game without it literally killing my PC. And my build is very, very recent (SSD, Win 10, RTX GPU, etc) so it's not that. But if I alt+tab out, I'm unable to do ANYTHING. No task manager, no nothing. I have to do a hard reset each time. It's a very strange issue to have because I've never seen a game do this before. I've tried multiple compat. settings, run as admin, use 3rd party software to force windowed mode, run in virtual machine, run inside GOG Galaxy launcher, download and run without GOG Galaxy launcher (offline installer), etc. I get the complete system freeze no matter what I do if I alt+tab out. Others don't seem to be experiencing this problem but be wary, I can confirm it did at least happen to me so it's not without issues.
Actually there are a few improvements in this PC release....
The original 15fps cutscenes have been replaced with higher fps cutscenes. Post processing effects that were taken out of the original PC port have been put back in. Widescreen support added
And that's just what's been discovered so far. I can't believe Konami actually did WORK for this release lol
All,
Silent Hill 4 is available to buy digitally for PC on GOG's website for $9.99 as of today, 10/02/2020. I just bought it and it appears to be the same as the physical PC release from some time ago.

I doubt we'll ever get 2 & 3 but I'm glad we at least got one of them. If anyone can't afford a physical version, this might be the way to go for you if you still want to own a copy.

Remedy Entertainment (developers of Alan Wake) have their own discord - http://discord.gg/remedygames. That's the only applicable discord server I'm aware of.
Here's my first PC run. Glitchless w/Toys (and yes I know that's not a category - it would essentially be Any% going by the current categories in place).
Ran into an issue when trying to start a new game to run the PC version...I literally cannot figure out where this game stores it's save data at so I can erase everything and start with a fresh run.
Just finished a regular playthrough on PC (Steam version) to refresh my memory and it runs really well. I'll probably do my first PC run tomorrow.
PC version released today on Steam and Epic Game store (also released on iOS i believe). Can we get PC version added please?
Yeah the PC version used to work very well for me on my old Windows 7 laptop but on my Windows 10 PC, I've never even been able to get it to run. It wants some kind of Sonic Cineplayer Decoder Pack that literally isn't in any decoder pack known to man, I've downloaded every single decoder pack on the internet and it doesn't resolve the issue.
I chose to run the Switch version since I can't get the PC version working anymore. But 360 runs the best out of all of them.
As far as I'm aware, 99.9% of all games on speedrun.com do not allow you to modify the game and then submit it to the leaderboard unless the category in question is specifically for mods.
But I'll let Lazerlong or Maxy answer this conclusively.
