      Watcher08121 345 I see what you're saying but there are literal tons of games in early access on steam that are just straight up survival games where you do the most basic of things, this one is close to the same as the rest but the real thing it's got going for it is an actual good story that's interesting if you pay attention.

      That’s why they added in the factor of Timmy being missing. Anyone who was a lone survivor probably would just try to escape, but when you’re a parent and your child is taken, you’re kind of compelled to stay.

    • @maddier.8273
      @maddier.8273 6 ปีที่แล้ว +91

      tevos If you were in that situation, knowing that there are cannibals (or thinking) that have your son, you’re really just going to leave? You don’t know why he was taken or if they’re going to kill him, and if they are going to kill him, when they’re going to kill him, and I don’t think any good parent would just leave without them whether their intentions are to return or not.

    In short… the *"bad ending"* I accidentally triggered was actually the *"less bad ending" ?*
    In my version I left my dead kid behind, burned his picture and moved on (dealing with the pain of a loss is a mature ending).
    In this "good ending" I kill all of the people of a random plane, hoping a compatible kid will survive the crash, kidnapp and impale him alive to save my own son… that at the end become a monster anyway?!?!?

    I always thought that the reason timmy mutates in the final cutscene was because someone had removed the sacrificial child his father had kidnapped from the plane he brought down and put in the relic. Like a fked up cycle, that parent would then down a plane to kidnap a child to resurrect their child and so on and so forth.

I really liked it, since I was heartbreaking when your character looks down to their own axe before going to check on his only family and see him become a monster. Now it's more of a love conquers all stereotypical ending, the original ending had a tragic yet horrifying realization that you've endangered all those around you and released this monster that was once your own flesh and blood son

    This finally and logically makes some much more sense, now!! Thank you!!
    Of course, 90% of youtubers who played this game didn't get any of the "big picture".
    But even among those who remains, and who are usually prone to dig deeper to patch together all pieces of information, there seem to be a consensus that this game doesn't really make sense..
    And now that you explained it yourself (don't know how I didn't see this video before), I understand why : the fact Dr Cross left the island to come back later, and project Jarius is just recreating mutants that already existed because of the artefact before, are 2 events that confuses people out.
    They usually think Sahara created the mutants themselves (and so, old pictures of them are "incoherent", in this version), and think Dr Cross is strangely passing for a cannibal while (still) leading project Jarius. A project which mysteriously disappeared after that.
    So, incoherences & mysteries, where there's none once you get the timeline in the order you give here.
