Description There was a hole here.
It's gone now.

Also, delusional James is surrounded by unreal butterflies.

Somehow this title reminds me of the song This picture, by Placebo ("hang on/though we try/It's gone").

I feel like this should be on a pair of transvestite's pants.

Would it be alright if I used this as the background picture for a Silent Hill 2 Remix? Don't worry, you will recieve credit on the song title, and in the credits. If you want to, you should check out my YouTube (s0c01da116utz31dav1d), and maybe look at some of my videos. Most of them contain DeviantArt pictures. Also, I'll tell you when it's done.

It's nice to see someone asking that kind of thing nicely for a change.

This is so great! The textures looked so real, and I love the butterflies~! It reminds me of how the butterflies sort of reappear in the game. (great symbolism) The butterflies seem to reflect James state of mind.

Also, that particular green room with the butterflies everywhere was scary.

'never saw SH2 as "sad", personally... there's nostalgia and melancholy, but I don't find it sad for the most part.

AvatarThatNeverWas In reply to JohannesVIII [2011-01-21 14:20:32 +0000 UTC]

I agree with the nostalgia and melancholy but I found it all sad, to be honest. I mean, James is trying to hard to see a woman he knows is dead...it's creepy and loving at the same time. But that's just what I got out of the game, it's probably different for everyone. :3 And thanks for the badge! β™₯

I couldn't find any screenshot of this place with the perspective I wanted, so I made a photo of my tv screen while playing. That was ridiculous and also very low quality Thanks!

No that's a good idea! I always tend to take screenshots from youtube videos for references. No problem

Fear of growing old. ~

Yet again, I mistook this for a screenshot. And once again, when seeing it, it's so much better than one. I'm just amazed at this.

I like James' pose. Gives me the idea he's against the wall and his legs trying hard not to let him slide down. ~
