Firewatch vs Silent Hill 2
Firewatch
Firewatch is an intriguing, mystery-infused first-person adventure game that's set in the wilderness of Wyoming.

Being a fire lookout, your job is to look for signs of smoke and communicate any incidences you encounter to your supervisor, Delilah, via your handheld radio. Aside from doing your job though, there are plenty of fun hidden secrets and discoveries out there in the wilderness for you to find.Although the game has a rather small cast of characters, you can actually build relationships with them as you play the game. The game also has a storyline that changes based on the decisions you make. Your decisions will also affect the relationships you make with the people you meet in the game. Of course, the game is very atmospheric as well, with its unique art style and brilliant music.
Firewatch is a really nice story-driven game that focuses more on exploring the wilderness while keeping an eye out for the telltale sign of a fire.
Silent Hill 2
Silent Hill 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to Silent Hill, but instead of trying to continue its predecessor's storyline, the game thrusts you into a whole new adventure as you join James Sunderland whose young wife, Mary, had just passed away due to a tragic event. With his life shattered before it had even begun, he hadn't been able to move on... and three years later, he received a mysterious letter that's apparently from his deceased wife asking him to return to the dark realm of Silent Hill where he will eventually find out the true nature of her death.Silent Hill 2 provides players with a much larger environment to explore in, including many of the previous closed off areas. The game even added special effects, such as real-time weather, fog, morphing and shadows, that is guaranteed to make you jump right off your seat.
