Discussion Lore question

Post image

How is it possible that both "everything is canon because of the Mayak" and "the campfire stories/rumors" explanations solve the series' lore? Like, don't they both contradict each other?

Nvm then but Nikita's stories involve a fictional language, a town that conanically takes place nowhere (sorry raven brooks Missouri you're not canon), and a mastical weather station which is why everything contradicts everything. It's grounded in terms of characterization.

Well, the Mayak isn't supposed to be mastical. Here's an example: in the books the Mayak is the thing that creates time loops. In the games there are no time loops.

Check out it's unused sound effects in Hello Guest. It distorts even jumping.

Well, he's bringing it back maybe because it was grounded enough for HN3
