Compared to how we see him in SH1, which is from Harry’s pov, in which he’s just some confused guy. At first anyway.

Also worth mentioning that the non-sexual looking nurses in SH1 were not designed by Ito. They were designed by female artist Naoko Sato. The SH3 nurses, which in theory are an updated version of them, were designed by Ito and are much more sexual in appearance.

In the Bad Ending, it’s revealed that >! Harry died in the car crash and the entire game was a dying dream!<. In the rest of the endings in 1, including the Bad+ Ending, this is not the case and the story remains the same. Only the conclusion changes. It’s the same with SH2, 3 and 4. None of the endings change the story. The only thing that changes is the outcome (even the ufo endings in 1 and 2 don’t change the story!)

Meanwhile, in Origins Bad Ending, >! Travis is revealed to be a serial killer and was apparently hopped up on White Claudia (to be as fair as possible, this one is at least foreshadowed in the main game) !<. Then in Homecoming, literally every ending except the Good Ending completely changes the story in ways that aren’t even foreshadowed or explained. I remember Downpour doing the same, maybe to a slightly less degree but still.

Anyone else dislike this type of multiple choice endings? For me, I hate it partly because it feels like there’s no point in being invested or trying to figure out where the story is going.
