This game hits different, has a feeling like when i play what remains of edith frinch or road96,you start confused even bored but trought you play, you want to keep going,masterpiece
I think the ending is basically her not believing in God anymore. Like- kudets, that is supposed to be a holy thing, is just ignored on the floor. She doesn't even treat the kudets like a holy thing anymore (that has to be handled with care and be put in a safe, sacred place) With her not believing in God, she starts to find freedom in life, not to be tortured by religious rules and all that jazz. And that's refreshing (from her pov)... Her devil reflection shows that she starts accepting evil as a part of her entity (since holiness here is depicted as a heart, pure from evil. She accepting it just basically taints the pureness and holiness in her heart)... Just my 2 cents, though... 😅❤
@@deefraux4012 Could very well be. That she got "possessed" by the trinket and saw her own evil in that mirror. The game just looks so surreal, as if you're a drone, dancing around the whole scene
She accepted who she was. The "voice" was part of her being rational and telling her about the absurdities of her faith. Since she accepts the rational part (the voice/devil), there's no need for the voice to exist. The final straw is when she finds Ilya selling the "kudets" for 5 Roubles and then she gets it and finds out that it's just a "thing" of little value to her. This is also why the points disappear afterwards. There's just no point.
She becomes disillusioned about god and religion, gives up on it, which the voice was telling her to do all this time, to get rid of it. She when she sees herself in the reflection - that's her "devil" side, the rational side, that gets her out of confinement. She tries to get "cured" repeatedly by kissing the thing (idr the name), but seeing that it isn't helping - simply gives up, at which point the voice leaves her and she becomes herself.
We cannot put our trust in alleged artifacts or man-made rules of different church organizations like confessionals, saints, or sacraments. Rather put your trust in Jesus Christ alone and his finished work on the cross - as a Christian, that is my reading of this narrative. God bless!!!
His finished work is also man-made as well as his existence. You can believe in a god or a prophet but there’s nothing that proves that the scriptures were written by that god
@@meemaw2200 "When the spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come." -John 16:13 The scriptures were recorded by humans, but I believe they are God-breathed (perfectly articulating God's will and knowledge). John 16:13 states that if we believe in Jesus Christ, then the Spirit of Truth will show us that he is indeed the way, the truth, and the life. I think this can be challenging for our human logic, but I can personally attest that it is true and that we are "not to lean on our own understanding" to quote Proverbs 3:5-6. In other words, I might not be able to prove God's existence at my own will, but God can! May his peace be with you!
I honestly dont know whats worse, an attractive girl that thinks TOO highly of herself, or an attractive girl that doesn’t realize it and is in constant doubt. A girl that that thinks she’s worth too much, or a girl that thinks shes worth too little… honestly I dont know…. Unfortunately Ive met both types… Dated the one that thought too highly of herself, but for some reason no matter how hard I tried, could never get the other type to see herself the way I did.. the other type got away. Both were unreasonably frustrating in their own way…. Nowadays Im alone. And too old to do anything about it…. Or maybe Im being a hypocrite because just like the second girl, i am too stubborn or too afraid to acknowledge that its all in my mind.. Problem is Idk if Ill ever know… Ive never been so damn unsure of myself in my entire life! So lost. So hopeless.. I doubt anyones gonna read this comment. I really hope not actually. Im not used to showing any vulnerabilities. God I wish I had the last 10 years of my life back… or at the very least I wish I had the mindset I had 10 years ago. This is no way to live… living is a helluva lot more than just not dying… and im so fuckin disappointed in myself because thats literally what Ive been doing these past couple years it feels like… not dying.
Don't be so gloomy about things, mate. Life is what you make of it. Don't regret on your past decisions. If you're still alive, you can do good things for yourself and those around you. Have hope towards a better future and work towards it. You'll be glad once it works out in the end: that one blog that you wrote to start hour writing career, that one internship that spanned decades of employment, that one girl you dared asked out and now have a whole family with. It's taking on good faith and not worrying about failing. So, go do it!
