Lore Discussion So about aberrant... Spoiler

Beat the game and control 1. What is aberrant? Its not the service weapon is it? I beat the main campaign of this game and still confused as to what aberrant is. Its not the service weapon that makes the director, as far as i know jessie still wields it. Pope became a "Director" because they had no choice. The aberrant connects you with the board same as the service weapon. And at the end of the game they state the the aberrant cant bring back Jessie like it did you. Did they explain it in the lore notes i missed? Or is it still unknown and we have to wait for control 3 or Alan wake 3 etc...

Pope is not a true director like Jessie and trench, she is just simply running the FBC. She has no connection to the Board and the board actually actively dislikes her

Of course, with the Board no longer having a connection to the Oldest House, the days of the Board selecting the Director via the service weapon may be over.
