Alright, so there wasn't a cliffhanger, good... Or was there? Yep, I was wrong. There was a cliffhanger. A hidden one but there was one. Well, here goes my lifeline. *pretend I cliff hanged myself because it's a joke*

P.S.: I hate cliffhangers. >:(

(and to make it even worth reading, I have to comment Day 12 because there's not much content about it here in the comments)

The story was okay. Actually, really well made. Better than I expected. 

*SPOILERS AHEAD! JUST SAYING*








(BTW if you don't understand my writings or there's a mistake, excuse my unawareness, my first writings never make sense and are full of mistakes, so I usually rewrite them the next day. This one is so far unedited)









Oswin's theory on diffrent timelines is really painful to read, especially that I don't want to continue. “You made a mistake. You shouldn't even be here. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT.“ And it's true. If the player has a little sense, it's definitely hard to continue. But it's a part of the life, you make mistakes that you regret but you need to move forward in order to get more info, more of something to start understanding your decisions you've made (although you can just quit the game and start over but I'm getting of track, sorry).

I absolutely adore this day because it has so much replay value. Doing another run gives you quite a lot of new information that you would normally miss if you played in „normal circumstances.“ So. Much. Death. Really feel sorry for you Grizz, typing it all in must have been hard with 4 diffrent outcomes. You could also do a little behind the scenes one day or a speedpaint or anything else (just an idea, it could really slow you down actually, setting it up, managing it and editing it all... that's a lot of work for something that's not even helpful). Your drawings are very clean the last time I checked, less strokes are visible and helping lines are completely gone! And the last update is not the exception. Probably had more time I assume.

The last bit though... Oh, that got me good. Didn't know you will put Jack on the line that early (probably because I haven't made another theory and correct my last one from 5 months back). The running bit I figured, what else was there as an option when Jack the killer comes in to the main storyline. Although, I thought that it would be the same chase like on Day 14 but Tyson is with you. What a night.

I also started commenting on Dave exhausting himself and the day ending too early. The sudden slam to my face got me by surprise (Oswin waking up Dave). No words can describe just how funny it is to start commenting on something and then the game be like: „Stop right there! I can't take your pitiful sobing, just... here, have a little more, so you stop whining again.“ The little was a little but damn Grizz, you got me good. The leader of people's emotions, I like it!

But the Sal thing. Man, I so want to hug Sal and ensure him that everything is going to be okay. It's just sad making me think of him taking care of his plush watermelon. It's adorable but a bit lonely as well. Hugz.

You say "Jack the killer."  After reading the day 14 story, Jack might not yet be murderer...the new day 12 of the other story line I agree that he is the murderer...but is he working alone?

There is the part that he asks you about the butler, and when you tell him he is alive and well, he gets gloomy...as if he was expecting him to be dead.

What I will give you is Jack definitely seems to be an evil character and could definitely be the cause of future killings.  He also is seen on the phone relaying information to someone (I assume someone in Orlando's family).

If anything, this tells me more that it is probably Orlando.

You're completely right, my bad. It's just funny to call him as „the killer“ because it reminds me of „Jeff the killer.“ He is more as a hitman if any. He's not doing it because he wants to, he's paid to do it (as you already know). It must be a family the Hammond family had set against themselves. I have no clue what family it could be but I agree Orlando's family is a prime suspect with their „questionable acts and past.“

I firmly assert that there's no cliffhangers as of yet. While yes, things might leave on a tense note, or perhaps leaving you wanting more, in any given update the immediate resolution of the scenes takes place. Even in Path C and D here with Dave going into the woods with Tyson.

A cliffhanger would be cutting to black as Dave's running through the woods and you don't know if he's escaped or not.

To clarify though, did you play through Day 14 as well?

OK, it depends on how you put it. With the new information, maybe the question of Tyson presence isn't as much of a cliffhanger as I first thought. On one hand, it wants you to continue, to see what happened in the end. On the other hand, it's like the option with Sal. If you want him dead, he will kill himself. Or will he? Now we now that he WILL kill himself but before the update, it wasn't a cliffhanger but yet there was that feeling of you wanting to know Sal's presence even here. So I guess you're right.

Yes, I've played through Day 14. The ending could be a cliffhanger but for sure isn't a one. Yeah, the characters reference the next day as „a hard one“ but there's no proof, no event or basically anthing else that clearly concludes the day with information yet to be clarified. It's just emotional but reassuring that there's still HOPE among the group. Right?

Essentially.

I've said in the past that there'll be a total of one cliffhanger in the game's production given how/when it'll need to be done and what's feasible within one month's worth of work. If you think what we've seen so far is a cliffhanger, you have no idea given what's coming up.

I get it now. A cliffhanger is a tense moment at the end of a story. That means that only Day 13 had a cliffhanger because it ended on a tense note right away... uh, me sometimes... unbelievable. At least I have it all clear now. Will come in handy later. Thanks for the clarification!

As I said originally, per my definition and how I've been pacing the plot there have been zero cliffhangers.

Noted. That means that there's still a bigger problem ahead of us and... I should really pay attention and rethink next time I comment something. I wish best of luck!
