Would I like Silent Hill?
I guess an easy answer to my question would be "try it and you'll see," but I hope I can still get some good input...
Frictional Games introduced me to horror games. I watched a lot of horror movies growing up, but never even thought of playing horror survival games. Frictional has captured everything I love: puzzles, storyline, horror... and presented it to me in a way that didn't make me frustrated. I'm not that great at combat (I really sucked at Bioshock and Half-Life 2). Since I've had motion sickness all my life, I couldn't practice first person/action-packed games at all growing up. Only recently have I found a cure and have been scavenging for first person games I've been missing out on.
I haven't done a ton of research on the Silent Hill series in fear of spoilers. Are there hordes of enemies coming at you most of the time (Dead Space 2... :/ ) or is it more slow-paced? Is the atmosphere similar to Amnesia/Penumbra at all... more psychological?
tl;dr: I'm a newb and I want more horror. I suck at games with tons of combat. I like storyline and puzzles. Would I like Silent Hill, and if so which game should I start with? Which games should I avoid?
Thank you!
