“talking with her mom didnt reward her with anything” is the perfect description of what confronting an abuser is like

This. It sure didn't give me any closure. My father is now dead, and I never got an acknowledgement of what he did to me when he was alive, let alone an apology. Confronting him wasn't worth it.

One fun tidbit, you're correct that there was no Alex in greek myths - but it might be a reference to something else. In Roman times, Mark Antony and Cleopatra had children named Cleopatra Selene...and Alexander Helios.

@viper9235 4 месяца назад

I think the bridge scene contains some more information we can infer. First it can be noted that when Helios talks she looks at him in the mirror and promptly swings it as to not see him to which this contributes to the idea that Celine sees him as a burden. Next, they are on the bridge and she swerves off because of the astronaut. If we assume the accident was planned, this bridge acts as a cross roads for Celine just as it did for her mother, she can either continue and essentially hit the astronaut (losing any chances of her becoming an astronaut) or follow through, swerve off and leave Helios behind saving the astronaut. Since in one of the cutsences Celine is the astronaut I think its fair to say the astronaut did not exist but instead acts as a visual representation of Celine's dilemma

@JarodHarrison-jj7oq 4 месяца назад

Another idea is that maybe since she was working long hours she could have hallucinated someone there, which still fits into this, but isn't as malicious but still tragic.

@kaingates 4 месяца назад

Dilemma for what?

@andimari9194 4 месяца назад

@@JarodHarrison-jj7oqbut isn’t the astronaut technically herself? Why would she hallucinate herself?

@JarodHarrison-jj7oq 4 месяца назад

@@andimari9194 If we work with the idea that instead of it being temporal and more being all in her head, she could be reremembering the incident as it being her own fault rather than just a legit accident. Like how some people can blame themselves more for something that happened and just spiral from that, instead of trying to process it as just an accident, and from there it'd be like she's viewing herself more at fault. Instead of it being the astronaut it could have been an animal or a straight hallucination due to how long she had been working so much, her mind registered that there was something there, and her first response was to instead of hit it despite her mind knowing where they were (IE. on the bridge), and everything involving helios happening from there. A case where her tiredness resulted in her making a decision that resulted in her child dying.

@andimari9194 4 месяца назад

@@JarodHarrison-jj7oq not a bad theory. I have heard of people blaming themselves for things that aren’t their fault (like you saying an animal causing her to swerve, or it just being a legit accident). I also think if she’s hallucinating the astronaut, it could be her mind trying to lie to her to say it wasn’t her fault, and she needs to in the end, accept what she did. Makes more sense now

@plaknas_games 3 месяца назад

@@christopherlyndsay8611 yeah a lot of overlap but essentially it represents escape! That's how she escapes Atropos too. But she comes looking for White Shadow on Atropos in the first place. Which causes her to abandon Helios.

@Vucero 26 дней назад

@@andimari9194yeah she needs to reach the white shadow (moon/air/safety) but Helios (her son) has been abandoned in the lake and she just cannot cope with the fact she left him to try to survive. The lake symbolizes the hell she suffers in whilst trying to deal with her situation. Tremendous symbolism

@mostynfero1775 4 месяца назад

Isn’t it more likely that Theia was pregnant with selene and the child we see in the car is Helios (Selene’s brother). It makes more sense that theia drove off the bridge, couldn’t save her son, and was injured but miraculously her in utero child survived (Selene) and was resented for it by her mom. The scenes of Helios playing are actually Selenes memories. Makes more sense than both mom and daughter driving off the same bridge and also explains the heterochromea

@iESCAP1SM 4 месяца назад

That’s a very interesting perspective

@h3rbsman 4 месяца назад

After reading this a few times I’m fully convinced, I 100% can not see it any other way now, hell it almost feels obvious even. Nice 👍

@rmidifferent8906 4 месяца назад

That would also fix one more plothole - where is Selene's partner? Is he mentioned anywhere at all? Even if he died, left or was a night one stand - it would be weird that he is not an important person affecting Selene in some way. I could be missing something though

@thiagohtr 4 месяца назад

I also strongly believe in this idea, as I cannot conceive of the idea that Selene acquired heterochromia, as this is a very rare and congenital condition. It's almost impossible for heterochromia to be acquired through an accident and I don't think the developers would give Selene this trait and justify it as a result of the accident. I believe that the car scene is Theia driving and the heterochromia is a way of making this clear (and also of showing the character's duality, of course).

@andimari9194 4 месяца назад

Great theory but I have one question. why would selene then feel extremely intense guilt? I could see her being sad about Helios dying cuz it’s her brother, but a lot of the hints, especially “Helios abandoned” is more of selene not being able to save him

@sawdust8691 2 месяца назад

@@vorhandklaus It was launched as a pure single-player game. Co-Op was added along with the Tower a while after launch. The game is built for single player. You can't enter the house or the tower or your ship while in co-op. And the flow of the game is a bit disrupted in co op with all the enemies having substantially more health and deal more damage. I swear the game is harder in Co-Op than single player. Though I personally like the Co-Op. The game is best experienced single player in almost every way and I recommend everyone first playing the game go single player for their first completion. But Co-Op is fun too. I think it's a cool idea and addition. Help out a struggling random or play with a buddy. I assume when you say the multi-player sucks you're talking about glitches or something? Because it doesn't suck at all. It's not the best but it's not bad at all for co op added in after the fact. Though when I first messed with co op I would occasionally run into a glitch that gave me a hard time. So I assume that's mainly what you're talking about. I assumed they fixed most of it cause just a few days ago I played through it with a friend on PC, the whole game fresh, and didn't run into any problems. It's not the best co op and the game was built without it. It's more a fun option for those who want to use it.

In Co-Op you can't enter the house, your ship, or the tower. And the flow of gameplay feels disrupted with enemies having way more health and deal more damage. Honestly Co-Op feels a little tougher than single-player even with the ability to revive a partner. Sharing health and resources and the beefed up enemies and bosses can get annoying if things don't go well. But I do like the Co-Op. It's a fun cool idea that was added later. Being able to help randoms or play with a friend is fun. Can I ask what you think sucks so much about it? I remember running into some annoying glitches in a few spots, worst of which the Nemesis bossfight which basically killed the partner and was out of reach for revival the whole fight. But I just played through the whole thing with a friend on PC, fresh game, and never ran into an issue. The only Co-Op annoyance I ran into was the slightly disrupted gameplay flow and having to revisit the house in singleplayer.

I have bipolar disorder and I once had an episode of substance induced psychosis with medication. I had seizures and was trapped in a mental loop for 12 hours that felt like months. I would spend what it felt like days trying to get out of a hole of abstract nonsensical images to then pop back in and somehow end up in the exact same place I was at the beginning and everything would start over again. It was the closest thing I have ever felt to being in literal hell. And returnal gave me a weird feeling of being understood. Eternity, inevitability, and being the cause of your own torment from start to finish. That's a wild trip.

One thing I noticed about the bosses, they seemed especially Algos - they seemed to have a ‘child’ like entity attached to them in some form; at least that’s how it appeared to me.

There was so much to uncover and theorize about, and only after beating the game did I go online to see what other theories people came up with, and it was really cool to see other people come up with very similar conclusions and ideas.

@WobblesandBean 2 месяца назад

The thing that made her teeter to the "it's in her head" was the log where she's having a conversation with her doctor. He asks if Selene is taking her meds, she says no and starts talking about her astronaut job, and the doctor stops her, saying she's talking about things that aren't real. Selene may not even be an astronaut. She might just be truly mentally broken.

What i loved the most first playing this game was my brother watching. Hes very pucky about the games he plays but he was super intrigued and we were theorising as we played. Neither of us wanted to be spoiled and it was a great time When that second act part began, we both were pissed in a good way. He was confused and i felt cheated; "no! We played your rules, we won!!" And that was when it clicked on why the game felt so short. It had only just begun Was truly something special to have with him. A rare moment of him & i having an actually good time together. Turns out my theory of her being stuck in a hell of her own making was correct but he was the first to catch on the "you abandoned Helios" thing being such an odd word choice Easily one of my favorite games in recent years. Absolute must play for others Also, 7:49 to 8:06 best description of this game's core concept ive heard, period. That was perfectly worded

@freshlymemed5680 4 месяца назад

I feel like they could have reduced the amount of rng for important items if they just made them guaranteed to spawn. In the case of the collectibles and logs they could be guaranteed but spawn in random locations or secret areas. For more important items like the sunface fragments they could have made the room guaranteed to spawn but be locked behind some kind of puzzle. Either way this game was a blast and I'm glad you covered it. Didn't really expect a AA roguelike but this game did it well.

@MrRagingAntibody 4 месяца назад

this story unfolds basically like the Kang Dynasty storyline in marvel, with him ending up fighting Lord Chaos and Master Order, the cosmic entities. The aliens caught in the middle are just the Kree. what i mean by that is, Kang desperately wishes for a way to change fate, to change what happened, only difference is he invents time travel to do so rather than being forced by an outside entity into a timeloop. but after countless tries and different attempts and even basically losing his purpose and forgetting and having to put the pieces back together, at some point, one version of himself finally just accepts what is, tries to go back and tell his younger self that this is going to happen and he must be prepared for it and just live with it, etc. if your theory of Celine being a murderer is really the plot, that unlike her mother, she chooses to veer off the road to make it look like an accident and let her child die so that she can go after her dream, this parallels alot with Kang's story about the sacrifices he is willing to make to be with Renslayer. , eventually even coming to hate her for making him do all these things even though she didn't actually make him do anything. Idk if your a comic book fan or anything, but if this intrigues you, either checkout comicsexplained on youtube or pick up the comics themselves, the arc is called the Kang Dynasty.

One weaves the twine together, another spins it out, and the last cuts the line. The name of the Moirai who cuts the twine (and so ends every person’s fate) is Atropos.

The final straw that convinced me that Selene did intentionally swerve onto the river was her reaction when she “saw” the astronaut, she quickly widened her eyes and my interpretation is that she did that because she made the snap decision to crash the car and kill Helios.

I love your companies. It's how you analyze a story and order it. This is great to listen to, but I'm still waiting for your video about The Witcher 3

Loved the analysis. Played this game back in September and despite watching and reading a lot about it back then, only now did I really get it. Basically the message the game conveys is, if you die while listening to Blue Oyster Cult you get trapped in a timeloop 👍

You made me realize some stuff, that I didn’t when playing through the game, and damn was it shocking when it finally clicked

I was able to get a ps5 at release and this was one of the first games out so I bought it just because there wasn’t much out and wanted to check out the haptic feedback, which was amazing. I’m not a fan at all of rouge types and managed to get through about 6 hours of it before I gave up. Glad you did a deep review.

You explained how as you got deeper into the story you decided it would be a good topic for a video. Is there some games you would recommend that you haven't made a video of? I'm always searching for those hidden gems.

A few people have recommended I play Signalis. I'm not sure how the story measures up since I havent played it yet, but I've heard good things from those that have played it.

I got this game on PC for the story, but I suck at the gameplay. So I am glad I checked this video out. It would take me forever to figure out the story on my own and get to the end.

Gingy have you ever thought about doing a video essay of Signalis ? I think it would make an intresting video, and Im would gladly hear your take on it! Long time fan of your content! :D
