I love how it starts. Like the melody itself was temporarily forgotten. Then, once the first notes play, it was like it was never forgotten in the first place.
Oh my god, yes. You took the words from my mouth. I was trying to figure out what it meant and that was it. The original being promise (reprise), and this was temporarily forgotten. This version has to be in the Return to Silent Hill movie, too.
when this started playing at the start of the scene with angela and the knife, it actually created kind of a tense "will they won't they" situation. And then the piano starts playing that iconic melody. Honestly it made me a bit emotional. It's good to be back in Silent Hill.
This is one of those games that will creep under your skin and start living there rent free, haunting you in most unexpected moments of your life. And this is the theme that will do the same, just in your ears.
Wow, I can't believe I had finished it a week ago. I've never had an experience like this before. It's like Silent Hill always calls to you, and you just can't resist the urge to keep going back to it.
They really took something that was already great and just made it even better. Im blown away by how faithful, in general, they remained with this remake. The music, atmopshere, environments, even acting this time around. I cant believe it
@@voyaage1969 they removed many of the symbolism elements from the environment and the character design. If they were not brave enough to tackle such sensitive issues, why the fuck did they pick up the project? I hope no one experiences this amazing story for the first time through this awful remake.
@MustafaAlDeweik which symbolism elements are you talking about? If that's how you feel about this remake, you are entitled to your opinion. Im simply confused.
Promise of the forgotten is a slick name. The play on the song itself being new and feeling different from the original song almost like it was played wrong because it was legit forgotten and thus weaved a new sound to go along with it. Love the idea of it all!
In 2024, this still sounds good. I first heard it in Silent Hill 2006. I just love how the original was promise (reprise), and for this, they gave it a good name.
“Oh it’s you…” with this music and the visuals has always been one of my all-time fav moments in the series. The writing and directing was on another level
I really love how the very start of it almost seems like the composer is going "Hmm....haven't played this in a moment". As if just a lil unsure, then it just goes on to be perfection.
Heard this track for the first time around 2008, a San Andreas myth video, had it on my playlist since, to hear it again remade like this is a portal back to those years
I have zero experience with the Silent Hill franchise, but when I saw a streamer reach the scene with Angela in the mirror room the music immediately struck me as something special.
OG player checking out the updates to the old tunes. So happy they didnt try to replace the original soundtrack. And somehow Akira made them even more beautiful.
I love this Remix, sounds familiar yet different, Promise of the Forgotten is an appropriate name. It strikes a balance between something familiar yet distinct, evoking a sense of nostalgia and a fresh take at the same time. It suggests depth, mystery, and perhaps a story untold-perfect for a piece that resonates while offering something new.
Thanks!!! I ended up doing a classical guitar cover with TABS for this version of Promise, in case anyone would like to check it out. The Remake's music is top tier ost along with the OG. So glad this remake happened! Will you upload Theme of Laura II? This one along with promise are my favs.
I loved this one the first time I heard it so much, I learned how to play it on a piano. Hearing this new version in the remake for the first time almost made me cry. It is just that good.
Wow, I can't believe I had finished it a week ago. I've never had an experience like this before. It's like Silent Hill always calls to you, and you just can't resist the urge to keep going back to it.
this music takes me somewhere else, I feel lost , abandoned in a creepy place with creepy faces. no one hears my tears , nor my coughs which are full of blood. I feel dizzy, staring out to a broken window. Am I ill? I don't really know anymore. I just like the sounds of the broken window , my soul that fled away , to the stars , on a full moon night.
que afortunados somos de tener este Remake tanto del juego como del a OST y poder escuchar ambas ya que se complementan perfectamente al ser versiones diferentes de las mismas canciones. Ojala venda bien este silent hill 2 remake y se animen con el origial, el silent hill de psx que es junto al 2 mi preferido y al que mas le hace falta un remake
I can't understand myself. Why am I crying? Because of the melancholy of the melody or because of the happiness of listening to such beautiful melodies?
Might just be the bitrate of the old soundtrack drowning it out but, I like how the xylophone is more prominent in this one. Gives the song an even more dreamy quality.
For this song is the real main theme of the silent hill 2 it's represent the inner self peace that James had in every former end's, this game through back in the past when I played for the first time in early 2000's 2002/2003 I loved the franchise silent hill from the first silent hill in psx
Nah, not a minority. Played all endings on the og. Remake is better in every way. combat, music, voice acting, environment, story. people who say otherwise either can’t afford to play or see the original in rose tinted glasses. Wife watched my whole play through, her eyes were glued as much as mine. one of our favorite games in the past couple years. Edit: side note, play the game on hard 👌🏻
No you're not lol The minority is the vocal group of people complaining online. I get that they love the og and for good reason but it's blinding them to the fact for anyone else, the remake is objectively a much better game and significantly better as a horror game and MUCH scarier
BASED. thats awesome. I actually did play it on the hardest difficulty eventually because I went such a long time at the start without dying even once. I also had an insane amount of health drinks and syringes collected lol Once I put it on hard they started to wittle away. The prison especially got me down to like 5 drinks and 1 syringe but I made it to the end just fine Its in my top 5 games ever and the best horror game ever which I never thought alien isolation would be topped but the sh2 remake is a masterpiece
Thing I love about this game is that you start to realize that it’s not even scary. Just really sad and a lot of people in real life are actually living in silent hill but don’t even know it.
Oh, I remember this music. 🤔 I have not played any of the Silent Hill games (yet) But I know I heard this at some point, when I watched the horror movie version of Silent Hill from 2006. 😏 I think it started playing when Rose meets "Dark Alessa" face to face for the first time. 🙂
1:23 This part hits different, I prefer this version more than the original. The original is still good, the remake's version somehow improved it in the best way
After reading about the eternal cycle theory that just got made canon apparently, this remake its even better, because it explains why somethings are changed throughout the main story campaign.
Thankfully, it's not canon. If you think it's canon because of the photo puzzle, keep in mind that it’s been 20 years since the release of the original Silent Hill 2, so it could possibly just be a meta reference, which is how I prefer to interpret it. The developers never stated that the cycle theory is canon, although it's a good theory, it doesn't fit with Silent Hill at all.

A remake would be nice but they’d probably have to do the first game before that since it’s essentially a sequel to the first.
