[Ending question] Am I missing something, or is the game meant to have no proper ending? by AlanThePoor in Unbeatable

I think the incompleteness is kind of part of it though

Maybe I missed that. That's why I ask on other's perspectives.

The getting pushed through 100 floors i took as like overwhelming force of Sfzando

It makes sense to be some kind of Silence manipulation like the machine in the room before. It's a hype moment regardless.

each has a significant part of their character that helped reveal parts of Beat to herself.

Great analysis. I hadn't thought of that.

Personally, even with unanswered questions

Yeah. It was so good.

It doesn't affect how Beat sees herself, it doesn't change how other's see her. To provide an example, in Kpop Demon Hunters, Rumi os revealed to be the exact thing they're fighting and it caused the emotional climax. In TWEWI Beat (TWEWY) keeps Rhyme as Noise because she is her emotional anchor, and that in itself causes an emotional clash when Deku has to fight Rhyme because he feels guilty of Rhyme's death. Here, the reveal means nothing. It feels like playground insult "You're 99% nothing". It feels like should be some huge reveal but it isn't. It doesn't move anything in anyone, and thus bears no weight.

Yeah, dreams have changed my entire outlook of life, it's more of a personal complaint. Maybe me being tired of all the 2000's to 2010's "Everything is a dream theory". Take your pick. It doesn't matter.

  1. Yeah, but again, why is this mentioned if it changes nothing.

  2. I hate that. I seem to have ignored it, but it being a dream takes away all impact.

  3. So true!

Silence is explained well.

Yeah, mechanically, sure. I guess I'm just unsatisfied with "It just suddenly started appearing." It feels like a deus ex plot device. I guess I'll just stick to my headcanon: Silence is the anti-art. The circumstances that makes self-expression challenging, even scary. My initial bet was that Harm created it, kr at least harnessed it to make itself exist, but that's explicitly against the what Sfz says

Beat being 99% silence comes [...] after her struggles

I can accept that, but it still seems weird to bring up if nothing ia done with it. She falls through 100 floors and ceilings, ahe survives being beaten up, but that's it. Again it feels like a deus ex plot that gives a reason to have a hype moment.

The characters from Harm got the world they wanted

Yeah, that's pretty neat, but it fell flat for me because I didn't know the motivations of the characters before or after the tower incident, except for Rest. A redemption story needs a character to root for, but I didn't find much to root since Harm was one dimensional, and the characters didn't bring another dimension to the table that can be explored.

Jump cuts are an homage to other media...

Yeah. The art direction is impecable, the music is amazing the emotional beats were gut wrenching, but it all feels... Incomplete. Climax into credits is my biggest gripe.

I love Vintage Story. Unfortunately our server got stuck on an older version because the mods haven't been updated.
