When I leave the hospital you'll notice I have my flashlight off and ever so often a message that "it's too dark to read the map" is displayed quite often.
I'd also like to make note of one particular trick utilized in this run that I learned from Simon Berggren.
Silent hill 2 hospital door code full#
The events in the game in the hospital cause you to lose most of your health anyways (the scene were you meet pyramid head on the roof it takes most of your health down automatically) so it's important to make sure you have full health before you leave the hospital (I heal using the R3 button in case you didn't know it's a quick restore key for those unfamiliar with the button configuration in this game).
The main section of the game where this holds true is right after the hospital. Due to this fact it is important to maintain full health through any areas of the game that require a lot of sprinting. you'll run faster for longer periods of time at full health). In this particular game your current level of health has an effect on how long you can sprint for (i.e. Healing items were kept to a minimum however the times I did heal were necessary. Boss strategies for Eddie and Abstract Daddy are unique to me I have no knowledge of anyone before me playing through them in that way. There are no real individual parts I dislike it's just that things, as a whole, could have been run through better.

As with all of the Silent Hill games the loading times between rooms is not factored into the final time (this is why the movie playtime and the actual game time differ this is true on all versions of the game for all games in the series). In multi-segmented test runs I've gotten a time of 49 minutes and 44 seconds so I know that under 50 minutes is definitely possible (though it requires a lot of luck something I don't have the patience for at this point in time). Though I'm not entirely satisfied with this run I do not have any intentions of playing through this game again anytime soon so I figured it would be best for me to submit the work I have done thus far. This run is a start to finish play-through of Silent Hill 2 on Normal Action/Normal Riddle with a finishing time of 50 minutes and 25 seconds done in a single segment no special weapons or endings are allowed. First off special thanks go to Simon Berggren who worked together with me to invent new ways to shave off time.
