Silent Hill 2 Remake is officially out, and horror fans, both old and new, are making their way through James Sunderland's intense adventure. One such person going through Bloober Team's remake is Silent Hill 2's original art director, Masahiro Ito.
In the leadup to Silent Hill 2 Remake's release, Ito could often be found on Twitter discussing his career, the game and some of its background. And now that the game is fully out, Ito took to the social media platform to discuss one of the game's most iconic and moving encounters: the Abstract Daddy.
As it turns out, Ito is just as horrified about the boss fight as we all are. And that's coming from the person who originally designed it. "Even though I designed Abstract Daddy itself, the creature & the reliving the Angela's story in the SH2R A-Daddy battle made me feel bad," Ito wrote on Twitter. "It was so bad."
After The Medium, there was plenty of good reasons to doubt the studio.
While Silent Hill 2 and its remake are extremely intense horror games, what makes the Abstract Daddy encounter stand out is just how tragic its background is.
