Would you prefer SH1 or SH3 next?

Yeah that's also an idea.

Which is why I think the Remake games ought to be considered their own canon, so that changes and additional material can have their own consistency.

>Any remake of SH1 should swap perspectives between Harry and Cybil up until the point she's possessed. It would be a good way to expand the game and also expand on what she was up to.

Do you mean a A + B scenario type of thing [ala Resident Evil] or a single scenario that swaps between Harry and Cybil? I would prefer the first, but for narrative reasons the latter is more easily done since Cybil's eventual possession creates issues with her having her own separate scenario.

Single scenario. Since Cybil can die at the carousel depending on Harry's actions it wouldn't make sense to give her an entire separate scenario. I was thinking swapping from one to the other at certain times of the playthrough, with Cybil possibly not surviving past the amusement park if Harry doesn't do the right things when you're playing as him.

I guess if you did separate scenarios, you could have a completely different end-game section for her where Harry gets possessed instead.

Not without breaking SH3's canon completely.

I don't really see a need to strictly adhere to canon in remakes.

Besides, they could just treat the Cybil scenario as a noncanon "what if?" scenario.

The second, a single scenario swapping between them at appropriate times in the narrative.

Like The Last of Us 1 & 2, but more often.

If Harry does manage to save her at the Amusement Park, she'll get some additional playtime up to the end.

I would prefer Silent Hill 1 to get the next remake, if there is one. you can't really do SH3 without the first you know?

I do think a remake of SH1, if done properly, could become an instant classic, and despite loving the original, i would love to see a more modern interpretation. I believe it would look absolutely amazing and be a real horrifying experience, in the best possible way.

[DinoNerd89]

I also agree that maybe seeing Cybil get her own sidestory would be cool. I would also think it would be hilarious to get an actual ambulance ending after all these years

Hey, @DinoNerd89. Please edit your post and add your second comment rather than adding multiple posts in a row. TIA!

A SH1 remake should just bring the story up to standard with the TS era sequels. It's great for what it is, but it's a PS1 era horror game and it has those artifacts. Running around Palevale in modern graphics is certainly appealing.
