This story and the characters are so so good. I fell in love with their personalities just by watching this, without having even played the game myself. I love that the LBP community made a love letter to this with the Return to Carnivalia DLC.
I loved this game, but one thing always bothered me about the story. The colonel said the Puppeteer went after hearing "the boo" but the real puppeteer says he was trying to replace the puppets he threw away. So, then that raises the question... What is "the dreaded boo"? Colonel says "it's the most feared sound in our world" but no one ever mentions it, or even references it again. Does it exist at all? If it IS in fact feared, and the most feared, I take it would be mentioned more than once. But instead, no one's ever like: "Be careful of the dreaded boo!" or anything. It just always struck me as odd.
the first place in carnivarlia is a carnival.being booed by the audience is something you don't like.also,the puppeteer might have made the puppets alive to amaze people to say yay instead of boo
StarMan881 Gaming i backed up my profile and ended up losing everyting related to the game and now have to replay the whole thing and make my levels again
The Dream of The Past/Franklin Wadsworth Emerson (The Puppeteer)'s Story (History)/The Story (History) of Franklin Wadsworth Emerson (The Puppeteer): "Once Upon a Time, The Puppeteer (Franklin Wadsworth Emerson) was once The Greatest Entertainer of them all. He pull the strings, the puppets dance, and the world smiled. But the life of a puppeteer is a solitary one. As time passed, there was soon no joy left in Franklin. And the magic began to fade. Until one day, Franklin hears the most feared sound in their world. The Dreaded Boo! In a wink of a eye, and full of anger, Franklin threw everything and the puppets away, and he vanished.* When Franklin came to his senses, he searched for them everywhere. But to no avail. When his last tear fell, Franklin knew he would never see them again. He became obsessed with replacing what he lost. Creating life at the expense of others' happiness. But for once, the more he created, the sadder he felt. And he realized how lost he became. By then it was too late. He'd created a monster. Many of them, in fact. And these Hollows weren't as keen to stop as he was. He's been imprisoned here ever since. While they continued in his name. All he ever wanted was to find his old puppets again. *One day he returned, filled with rage, He was not the same. With his Hollows, he took control of The Carnivalia, so they ran like rats leaving a sailing ship."
