Lisa as a playable character?

Post by **Corva09_im** » 20 Jul 2010

Well, I was looking at some topics and I saw this hidden picture of Lisa in the topic "Hidden SH1 stuff, pics, videos, etc."

PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER_SHOW PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER:

Then I saw that has similar characteristics to the health status image of Harry in the inventory

PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER_SHOW PRIME_BBCODE_SPOILER:

the same perspective, a faint orange light illuminating from the left, etc. So I wonder, could this be a picture that maybe, at some point, may have been used in the inventory as a health status to a playable Lisa? I mean, perhaps, at first, the developers saw the possibility of inclusion as a playable character, but for some reason, this possibility was discarded. What do you think about this?

If there is already a topic like this one, let me know and delete this, I searched but couldn't find it

It's not a possibility. There are promotional shots of all the characters in the same style.

Oh, I did not know it...

It's all right. I don't expect everyone to.

That's a shame.

I know it's been said before but in that pic she looks more like Cameron Diaz than ever !

Thank God this idea was discarded. . .

^ Why? Wouldn't it be awesome to play as Lisa?

Post by **Mephisto** » 20 Jul 2010

^No. It wouldn't.

Just an opinion, not a universal truth.

^Did you need help to understand that?

No. Why do you ask?

I find this pic to be a lot more similar to the Harry pic than that one, actually.

Yes, it's true. I have already saw it before in other web, but it's strange, I mean, isn't very similar to any existing character, unless a "young" Dahlia ... or something like that.

And there is another that catches my attention:

Is that Harry? It's kind strange too

Well, that's really up to one's opinion. I for one think it would be awesome as it would create a whole new experience from Lisa's POV.

It would have been a nice addition to play as Lisa like Maria in the Director's Cut of SH2. Lisa is connected to Alessa & Silent Hill, so they could have given us more information and in-depth thoughts of Lisa about all that. Also the way we would have been able to play as her, is she just running away or is she fighting against the monsters? When Harry meets her the first time she was clearly hiding. So who knows? Maria also seemed much more human to me when you played as her, maybe the experience with Lisa would have been the same or different, since she's a very emotional character. I don't know...

I agree with you Nightingale, who knows how much more we could know about the inner workings of Silent Hill, if only they'd have done that

Nobody really knows how it would have been, we can only give our point of view, but that would not achieve anything, so it is best not to give so much importance, I guess.

Lisa's supernaturally compelled against leaving that one room. Her gameplay would suck ass.

That obviously wouldn't have been the case if we played as her. Maybe a side quest with her confined to the Hospital would have been an interesting twist and might have revealed other bits and pieces. It's irrelevant though, I doubt they originally had her in mind to be playable. I would think that Cybil would be far more likely for that.

Post by **MariaRising** » 24 Jul 2010

I agree that Cybil would've been a more likely candidate for a side quest, after all Cybil was in the Play Novel and there are items in-game that would appear to be useful with another character... Like the glucose and distilled water.
