Silent Hill 2, like the rest of the series, features no shortage of tragic characters. In these games, even an antagonist can have a background that garners sympathy, but it might not be enough to absolve them of their actions. It does, however, create a world that’s morally gray, and the way that it mirrors the human experience adds to the horror and unsettling elements that make this franchise so memorable. At times, a character can end up feeling too relatable in that nightmare of a universe.
