@@Crowborn you said it, it’s better when we just go from the heart instead of making sure that we choose something popular that people will recognize, we can get alot more out of it when we’re willing to do stuff based on works that people haven’t heard of.
Great game. I liked that they didn't try to hamfist some profound meaning to the message. At the end we're just left with darkness and the scientist's regret that for all his effort, cracking the code was beyond humanity's grasp.
A signal, proof of alien civilization. The "message" they decoded was the sequence of words. Any attempt to gleam further understanding was meaningless. A series of coincidences lead them to thinking they were on to something while they ignored outliers. This ties into the random words that'd pop up, David's mind was picking up imagined patterns in the words and translated them into responses, while the machine would often say things completely unrelated to the rest of the perceived pattern.

Note: a) at the beginning, our protagonist talks with the machine almost naturally (it also mentions "muscle") b) then later, the conversations is reduced to 5 words. However, at the end, the machine uses 4 words and 3 words. c) Some words are used more than one time (for example police)
Probably in the end there was no message to begin with and this is ultimately a cautionary tale about unhealthy obsessions and the damage they can do to our lives.
Under another light, this can also be called persistence. Whether good or bad depends on results, but honestly where's the fun in knowing that beforehand? More so, this is a tale about right mindset at the wrong time.
@@yueshijoorya601 yeah tbh i'm pretty sure a lot of major breakthrough finders destroyed their personnal life for their career. Humanity thanks them for it but what about those who failed.
I quite understand and empathize much with David, as when you put a lot of yourself in some project and it doesn't come to fruition at all. Happened several times on my life, losing tons of money, years, opportunities, etc. Bad choices. In the end you just feel like an empty vessel with suicidal thoughts.
Well that was depressing. Why would "they" come for him if they discovered nothing? The game seemed to imply there was an initial message they were able to decode, and that his partner was killed for it? Why? What did they discover that put them in danger???
Proof of alien life might cause a panic, which is undesirable. If it got out, someone else might be able to decode it, which is undesirable. Since the signal was likely a continuous stream that was readily available for any astronomer to intercept, it meant proof of its existence would need to be extremely controlled to avoid undesirable outcomes. Basically, paranoia and greed.
@@hoppegypuma2343 i think it'd likely cause panic among enough people to have food shortage etc Probably even deaths due to mob panic and chaos. So it's something the gouvernements wouldn't want to tell. Understandable.
@@Dark_Peace It's a shame, how many people live in constant fear. They would consider alien lifeform as an immediate threat. But HELL NO. It would be a great chance to make this world a better place. :)))
If I can get in trouble the company that treated me like shit by insinuating it spent billions of taxpayer money on my monstergirl dating sims? Absolutely.
Simply put, an alien race sent a message to Earth. However, because of how much more advanced the aliens were compared to us, their attempt to communicate with us came across as a string of words unrelated to one another. Whatever it is they were trying to say is quite literally lost in translation.
@@Idontwannaknow632 I mean, I'm not the first to comment but I'm not the last either since the video will be discovered in the future and the comments will be years older than mine.
@@Idontwannaknow632 not really ( my original comment was never intended to get likes, only turning a trendy "I'm first" comment into a philosophical one)
