  2. Okay after watching this video… I'd go to silent Hill
    Cons : trauma, have to face myself, and my low gore tolerance

    Pros… : BECOME METAL SONIC "SEE ME AS I'AM, NO LONGER AFRAID OF ANYTHING!!!" "BUT THAT WAS THE PAST!!!! NOW YOUR NOTHING BUT A SPEC OF DUST TO ME!!!", and becomes the best you

    Racoons city
    You think if you played it smart you'd be fine… But boy the birds are infected… Also traveling by road is basically impossible

  3. People forget that in SH afterlife is a thing, and a lot of people's souls are trapped. People also think that they are the protagonist, and if you are then good for you. But SH is pretty unforgiving for everybody else. And death is not a release in SH. If you die, you stay there suffering or incomplete oblivious repeating the same ordeal time and time again.

  4. Silent hill is psychological torture with a potential (albeit, not guaranteed) eternal damnation to "hell".

    Raccoon city is physical torture with a high chance of death, but nothing more (unless you get mutated which is unlikely).

    Honestly, I'd say Silent Hill is the best option. Even if you're not in your best state of mind, you can atleast fight back decently even if you're not experienced and potentially escape.
    Fighting against a BOW on the other hand… yeah, even the one's trained to fight against them struggled, so there's that.

  5. I’d choose silent hill, raccoon city is a cemetery no matter what you do. With silent hill I would have to confront my mental health which would be challenging but can be overcome. It should be fine as long as I don’t get caught up in any god resurrection plots and don’t be mean to any little girls.

  6. Hey there ! after reading the comment section i decided to comment as well. While i do agree that your odds of surviving Silent hill is higher than surviving Racoon city, iam annoyed to see people saying i have no trauma i'll be safe in silent hill, its a false sense of security Silent Hill is well known for stranges accidents or disapearing. Beside that you can absolutely encounter monsters pulled from others people mind if there any in the town at the same time as you! And Finally if you living the event of the 1st game in the shoes of Harry Mason you simply screwed ! thanks !

  7. 0:07 If the experience is real life, then Raccoon City. If the experience is un-real enough to prevent me from going catatonic? Then Silent Hill for sure.

    4:25 also, I'm a combat vet. Military trianing doesn't mean f*ck. The biggest difference between a soldier and a civilian is that a soldier typically doesn't have to worry about being thrown in jail every time he pulls a trigger. A couple classes on room clearing, plus immunity from prosecution for using a gun to kill someone, and the average civilian is just as lethal as the average soldier.

  8. Silent Hill would be far more interesting and plus, if you pay attention. The cast from silent hill 2 onwards is usually killed by another human, either by themselves or each other. Talking about the main four, not any of the western games. Don’t count 1 because Kaufmann can be killed by a monster in Annie’s bar.

  9. Silent Hill is perfectly safe as long as you don’t have any inner demons you are wrestling with.

    So yeah I am making a BEELINE for RC. The zombies can only kill me. Christ almighty only knows what Silent Hill could do.

  10. Silent Hill hands down. People really say Racoon City thinking nah I'd win, probably would get destroyed immediately by the zombies, or by the Tyrants. Silent Hill is just a big therapy room.

  11. Thinking about it a lot of people don't know just how fucked you'd be in raccoon City over silent hill, zombies lickers tyrants nemesis mutated animals giant insectcs and a mutant plant that's nearly overtaking the city from underground if you didn't think that was bad enough there's a nuke on its way in a few hours your done for
