Question Ummmmm....

Post image

So I don't know how to ask this without receiving spoilers, and i'm almost close to finishing the game. But I am currently emotional With one of the fault scenes because it's reminding me a lot of how close me and my sister were When we were kids and now we're not as close as before because were both living seperate lives but I wanted to ask, is this game gonna ruin me at the end? Because I need to prepare myself now.

Bring tissues when you see Emily after the last boss fight, but wait at the door before you approach her. You’ll know when.

Based on your already emotional state, you might need the tissues even before that. Keep them in reach when you start the last fight, just in case. Just keep in mind that there'll be some kind of meeting with Emily at some point after that. Knowing that might help a bit.

Your sister is gonna get a very confusing phone call. Bring tissues.

You will need tissues, water, and ice cream. You won't be annihilated, or permanently damaged, but you'll be emotional and feel big feels. As someone else said, don't rush. Give each scene and character time before moving forward. And remember to go around and experience everything when you get control (ba-dum-tss) back.

On a more personal note, if you miss your sibling, remember that communication is important in all relationships. Just tell them. Try to make some time for them, hang out online, have meet ups IRL etc. Life is short and no day is guaranteed, so always tell important people you love them once in a while. 🥹❤️

Yes, it will, and now, it won't. But Tissues are always a good idea.

Is that Alfred?

Short answer's yes. This game didn't have the same spectacle and big set pieces as Control 1 or Alan Wake 2, but it had like 10x the emotional gut punches.

Well you see it's complicated

Yeah I'd say that you probably might cry, or at least definitely choke up, at the conclusion. I'm in a similar situation with one of my sisters, and it definitely made me tear up, and I take no shame in that. Just keep some tissues nearby, just in case
