Let's Analyze The Path [P1]

Well, after a week of off-and-on playing, I felt I was confident enough in my theories. Katrinonus was kind enough to join me, so we could get two different views on everything. All images were taken from Google Images or the main site, game footage recorded by me. I was planning on getting all game footage, but this went on for over an hour, so...

Anything minor we miss, I can add to the description here, and if we can figure out a couple of the characters completely, we'll probably do a follow-up videos. Feel free to share your theories in the comments or even as a video response.

In this part, we discuss the forest & path, and most of Carmen.

Yeah, I agree that the girls really don't die, just that part of 'childhood' dies.

I thought about the same things you did about the forest and the path.

But my idea was back when I watched the LP that the forest and the path are both the minds of the girls. Like taking the path directly to Grandmother's house would be a metaphor for the girls wanting to forget / ignore certain incidents in their lifes, resulting in the ending you get.

Straving off the path into the forest then means confronting your fears / bad memories.

But I couldn't connect it to their death-scenes then.

Dude your voice sounds like one of those voice distortion things that they do to protect peoples identity.

@Killian11 not to be mean but duh of course she regreted it if u look at her success ending carefully she was raped by her wolf (that woodsman in the forrest) and then he killed her

[legokid5872]

All these ideas are very impressive but i think we can all agree on one thing. The game is fucking wierd

[DevilStick1953]

i think of the grandmother that she's looking back at what happened to her in her childhood. thinking of the mistakes that she made and rather wishes to stay on the path, to stay young but can't change it. death's she lays in to become another memory and repeat until corrected. Almost like "When they Cry" but lot less crazy.

DAT VOICE!!

I think on Carmen's success ending that she's thinking she's lonely because she has no boyfriend of some sort, this is mentioned in the game and all she wants is a relationship with a guy so she won't feel empty/alone, and in a sense she was searching to hard and was to eager to accept anybody and she certainly was not thinking about any other thing, let alone sex or rejection.She either got the unthinkable act or getting rejected for the first time cut her to pieces, represented by all the saws

lol teh gaem is about raep

[SuperBigred61]

What I think happened is when you walk through the path without wandering and safely arriving at the grandmothers house means living a boring life without temptation and/or excitement and I do agree that the grandmother is a wolf because she is a symbol of death

[LeRach]

I think Carmen and Ruby both fell in love with older men who were just using them for sex.
