Abstract Daddy is one of the boss fights that were heavily re-designed for theSilent Hill 2 Remake. From the build-up to the fight itself, the Bloober Team did a great job of revamping the complete fight,making it more blood-pumping and freshfor all players. Even though in the original game, the encounter happens in a locked room, the remade version expands on it, adding a whole new chase sequence and the final confrontation.
When players are introduced to Angela in the beginning, they can already get a good idea of her troubled mind that reflects in her body language. That troubled past has now conjured up this manifestation of her abusive father that James will now have to face. So, it’s best that you’ll have a stockpile of ammo because you’re going to need it.
How to Beat Abstract Daddy in Silent Hill 2 Remake
Players will encounter Abstract Daddy after entering, more like descending, intothe labyrinth area. After walking down a corridor, you’ll hear Angela pleading to her father from an unknown location. At the end of the corridor, James enters the room, watching Angela lying on the floor. After a brief conversation, the Abstract Daddy will appear and charge at James, pinning him against a wall.
After a struggle, the wall behind James breaks and he lays his eyes on the monstrosity that was responsible for it. This begins the first phase of the boss fight,a long chase sequence. Do note this is a three-phase boss fight, so be prepared to pick up ammo along the way and make your shots count to avoid running out.
