Now he needs to know WHY his brother fought for Readceras, but he never finds out. When he finds out that his brother fought for Readceras, he feels that the rug has been pulled under his feet. When faced with difficult dilemmas (fight for your God or for your country?), he turns to people he respects and trusts for answers. That's when the game lets YOU choose your answer to the main question.Įder feels lost when he can be assured of nothing. This means that the Gods are not his creator, and therefore no ultimate answers can be provided by them. In ActIII, he is informed that the Gods are manmade (if we are to believe Iovara). So his initial answer to the main question is 'I am going to look for answers till I find them'.

The main character is trying to understand what happened to him (being a watcher and all).

But if you have been paying attention, this very topic is studied from different angles throughout the game. This is explicitly uttered by Iovara in your last conversation with her in Act III, where the game lets you choose your answer. The main theme is: What if we can be assured of nothing? I will be updating this post as more information becomes available. I am still discovering its details (there is so much of it!) and having a-ha! moments, so I am opening this topic to discuss what I have found and hopefully others will do the same.

It is not spoon-fed to you and I find the whole approach to be very sophisticated. It is a story for intelligent people, which is kind of rare in videogames.
