Henry's Occupation?

Post by Wooden Plank on Fri May 27, 2011 1:13 pm

During the events of Silent Hill 4, it is never hinted that Henry has a job. What do you guys think it is? In fact, we don't even know if he has friends either.
I love the Silent Hill Series. The new games did nothing wrong whatsoever, they were developed well, and did things different. I believe that Silent Hill Downpour will make all Silent Hill fans happy. Team Silent doesn't exist, but their series does.

It is hinted he might be photographer due to the pictures he's taken in his room of Silent Hill.

That's a good point, but there isn't a camera or something in his apartment...

Yeah I think he was a photographer, and like Xuchil said, just because a camera wasn't shown anywhere doesn't mean he didn't own one. He's obviously shy and introverted, so that occupation seems fitting.

Huh. I thought there'd be a camera case on his desk. And on an unrelated note, Henry sure is a snappy dresser.

I never even thought about it before.
Wow.

So....photographer? Maybe. I don't even care at this point.

It looks like things are getting too spicy for the pepper.

If he had a camera in the game, it'd have to have some meaning to it. Then people would go "OMG FATAL FRAME!"

I wouldn't say that being introverted qualifies someone for one particular occupation.
It might determine how long he spends cooped up in the darkroom, however. ;)
When I played through first time, I just assumed he was a jobless bum.
But then you notice his clothes etc and it just doesn't seem to ring true.

I would say is a photographer.to. If not Professionally then an amateur. If not a photographer than I guess just some random job that anyone could do.

Executive? Cause I think executive Henry would be a badass extra costume. Which brings up something else, why'd Cynthia get an extra costume? She only got about... 10 minutes screen time.

I'm pretty convinced and confident to say he was a porn star.

And some added replay value most certainly (well, not really for me but anyway).

^That's what we're trying to figure out, mate!

I just realized that my original post in this thread was incredibly half-assed and unhelpful. My apologies to Wooden Plank for disrespecting a good discussion idea. *bows*

I don't think Henry's occupation is technically that important because so much of the story line is about unraveling Walter's and his victim's pasts. But from what little we know about him, photography seems pretty fitting.

It's either that or he was something incredibly low impact. We don't have any reason to suspect he had any higher education, and he lived in a small one bedroom apartment, so it's safe to assume he could've also been a cashier or a clerk, or something else equally as "glamorous." :D
The photos he took were pretty good, so he's probably a photographer. The information we're given in the game doesn't lend itself to many other speculations, so this idea works as far as I'm concerned.

It looks like things are getting too spicy for the pepper.
