Silent Hill 2 Remake Fans Make Interesting Discovery About Monster Reveal
A Silent Hill 2 remake fan notices something about the encounter with the first monster in the game, and players are impressed at the detail.
Reddit user Magpie778 noted that Silent Hill 2‘s Laura shows her changing attitude towards James via her drawings. During the Brookhaven Hospital portion, Laura is in the middle of drawing a picture of a bunny and an angry wolf, which Magpie778 theorizes is a representation of Laura and James respectively. However, during the Lakeview Hotel part of the game, Laura’s drawing reflects the bunny with a friendly dog, showing that they are on friendlier terms.
What Does Laura’s Drawing Represent in Silent Hill 2?
Magpie778 explains that during Silent Hill 2‘s Brookhaven Hospital segment, Laura dislikes James for not being nice to Mary. This eventually changes as James’ rigorous search progresses towards the end of the game. Many fans seem to agree with the sentiment, especially with how Laura viewed Mary. One user even commented that the bunny was looking at a butterfly representing Mary. However, user Shot-Profit-9399 does question the eventual transition of the drawings. They note that the last time James and Laura met, the former screamed at her, so they hoped that Bloober Team could have added a cutscene showing more heartfelt moments between the two.
It is important to note that Bloober Team has not confirmed this specific detail. However, many fans believe this to be the case, as it does seem like a cool Easter egg that also ties up with Laura and James’ relationship. Reddit user CynetCrawler even commented that Laura’s drawing of Mary in Silent Hill 2‘s Leave ending shows how much love the former had for the latter. Whatever the case may be, many of the minor details the developers have inserted look to explain many more details in the game, even if some are very subtle.
