They may have decided to add on the humps at last minute.
Are you attacking me? I don't know, okay? Who the hell knows! So much of Silent Hill is shrouded in complete mystery. Just look at the evidence. From appearances, there seems to be a hump sticking out of their back.
Let's just say it's their shoulder. Okay, fine, no deep meaning there. Just a deformed, twitchy, melted shoulder thing sticking out of only the grungy nurses. No big deal, moving on.
Let's say it's really a growth on their back. Is there some meaning in this and how does this even make sense?
I don't like the idea of closing our minds off completely to something. It gets us nowhere.

Of course I am not attacking you, sorry if I came off that way. But if I was really attacking you I prouberly woulden't of bothered to spend time to check for evidence such as the youtube video and team silent's notes.
do understand, I am not entirely closed off to the idea, again I woulden't of bothered to look if I was. I just saying that based on what I've seen, I think it's very unlikely that there are hunchbacks on the nurses.
saying that, I think if someone could hack the in game camera, we might be able to get a deceant look at the nurses backs, anyone here who could do that?

Sorry, Blacky. Yeah, it came off wrong. Must keep in mind that this is the internet, and it follows a "PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN" policy. Could we get Valtiel or someone else with a cam hack to do it?

It just seems that Silent Hill kinda "recycles" its previous Otherworlds. For example, in 1 we have the Roaches, and then they make their way to 2. We have the Mandarin in 2, then they appear in 3 as Closers. The same can be said by the parasite on those Nurses backs.

I don't mind if basic ideas are recycled, as long as their changed. The roaches in 1 and 2 look and act different, the nurses in 1 and 2 look different, the underhanger (or mandarin, which I suppose is the UK name) is extremely different from the closer to where I wouldnt've made the connection on my own, and I love the way the dogs change. The nurses just haven't changed enough lately. They were great in 2 but the similar ones in later games have made me not like them as well.

I do not care how old this thread is now. I have proof! PROOF! LOOK LOOK LOOKI KNEW IT SHUN THE NONBELIEVERS! SHUN YOU ALL! See, if you had an artist's eye you'd believe me more. ;D I pick up on this stuff well. Well, now. All kidding and joyous victory aside, here they are. Got 'em from Valiet's site. Aren't they beauties? Mods, you can close this thread if you like.

Good, gooood! Very good! They look lovely! It's amazing how some things can still be discovered these days in such an old game afterall. I will certainly look after this the next time I play through the game! Thanks Patient! As for the symbolic meaning... ...it could just be a throwback to the original nurses from Silent Hill 1. But it could symbolize sickness, a hidden disease starting to break out from a seemingly healthy body (bar the head), the way James viewed Mary in the last days; a parasite on him that kept dragging him down. It is possible that I over-analyse but it's always funny to talk about Silent Hill 2. ;D

Yes, aren't they boootiful?! I want one. Mommy, buy me a Silent Hill nurse.
Very good analyses, barelasse! Quite right, jolly good show. *Tips tea to thee.* They really are deformed and sickly creatures aren't they? I never really thought about that aspect before.

Now I might have forgotten but aren't there also gritty versions of the Mannequins as well? Has anyone noticed anything about those? If I remember correctly that is... Tabris: Yeah, it's bloody amazing to come back all these years after the release and see how we can still spot things in the game. Same with Silent Hill 1, nureintier also made a topic about that afterall. patient: Thanks for the tea! Hopefully there's also a rusty spoon with it... I like rusty spoons... I like to touch them you see.
