(10) The Path: Ginger Ending (Success)

Ginger's 'success' ending in The Path. This occurs if you head off the path and encounter the 'wolf'.

These videos were all taken after collecting all 34 items; I'm assuming it's a bug that they say '0/3' at the end for items collected / rooms unlocked (in fact each character has between 7 and 12 items to find, so even the number '3' as the supposed total is weird) so I think this is the 'full' cinematic, but even if it's not, I really have no intention of replaying this game to get a 'better' (worse?) ending.

@Joudas did you get to the playground? because I didn't and went down the other tiny door, i completely avoided the seesaws and now it's gonna bother me why your ending is different

[Joudas]

@RosLi906 These videos are all after visiting all 6 'major' landmarks... they all seem to add different things to the endings.

Jesus, is the game really that loud?

[Joudas]

@darthcolonius No; the sound didn't want to cooperate with Fraps, unfortunately, so it's all distorted.

I'm not sure- I think it's her getting her first period. As a child she's been able to treat herself and regard herself as a boy- but getting her period is forcing her to become a woman, and she might not want to accept that- perhaps because she feels bi-curious as others have theorized. I'm thinking of the bed motifs- the mattresses stained with blood. There's barbed wire, which could represent drawing blood and the pain of cramps.

This is probably wrong. Since the girl dressed in red looks just like the girl dressed in white I think it shows a fake friend.

The girl in white is trying to help them find their path. Ginger meets the girl in red and gets hurt in the end. A friend backstabbing. Someone said the girls could also be the same person going through different troubles in life. At the end (with Scarlet) they 'grow up' and miss their childhood dreams.

Or it could mean something else. I don't know. <_<

The field of flowers scene seemed sadly beautiful, an obvious tomboy and her scenes having what I think are some lesbian tones, her playing with the other girl having someone to love and support her. Her wakening afterwards seemed to be more a walk of despair, to know she doesn't have that joy. Grandma's house seems more like a prison, red being the colour of passion and the black threads forcing her to bind her true nature. The feathers a beacon of hope while the wire holds her back.

[MaitoRikiHime]

@ThePumpkinOwl Ah, but that's the joy of this game; there is no real right or wrong answer, its a thinker. It forces you to think, to evaluate and to look into yourself and believe what you believe to be true perhaps taking from your own real life experiences in the process.

@Ookani It would help if we could see the flashing images more clearly. First of Ginger's lower body drawn inward, and the other of the barbed wire cutting through her elongated neck separating the young mind from the growing body. Man I love this game for actually making me analyze it!

[MechaTrevor]

She has no soul.

@perkidanman same for me, maybe we missed an item or something when Ginger was wandering around. but i was literally all over the map for her character and had a hard time finding her stuff.

[TheDeadpanSnarker]

I'm glad i'm not the only one who thought of her being bi-curious. Its the first thing I thought when I saw her ending.

[ForsakenThirteen]

@dafullclip It's psychological horror. If you take what's on the screen literally, you have a kid walking over to the grandma's house and something bad happens. I'm tired of tpying this over and over. Of course there is such thing as over analyzing something.
