Hi there everyone!
I was wondering, in SH if you save Cybil and get the Good+ ending, she will survive and replace Harry's wife in the intro sequence. But, that's the only ending in which she survives, and she's never seen nor mentioned in SH3. This made me curious which ending of the original SH is canon? I've read that:
"Cybil is neither seen nor mentioned in Silent Hill 3. The official Japanese novelization uses the Good+ ending. In a section regarding relationships in the Book of Lost Memories, writer Hiroyuki Owaku stated that what happened to Cybil was "left to players' imaginations". However, the Book of Lost Memories also stated that the Good ending (in which Cybil dies) is the "orthodox ending, which is connected to the third game". In Silent Hill: Homecoming, Deputy Wheeler tells Alex Shepherd and Elle Holloway that a female police officer disappeared when she went to Silent Hill. The only evidence left of her was her motorcycle, which was found crashed on the road to Silent Hill. It is heavily implied this was Cybil. When asked if Cybil was dead on Twitter, developer Masahiro Ito responded "Yes, I remember Cybil is dead." He was then asked the meaning of Owaku's statement, to which he replied "if you choose 'good+' ending among them, she is not dead, maybe." Director Keiichiro Toyama stated that he intended for the Good ending to be the true ending because "Good+ is a game's game", and he believes Owaku developed Silent Hill 3 around the first game's Good ending based on his own previous statements. However, Toyama has changed his mind and now considers the Good+ ending to be the true ending."
So... with Toyama changing his mind, Owaku saying that it's up to the players' imaginations, the Book of Lost Memories stating that the Good ending was the canon one, Ito saying she died "maybe", and Homecoming referencing her dissapearance it's really A MESS. What do you think guys? Which ending of SH is canon? Was Cybil ever with Harry? And if so, what happened to her?
