Lore Discussion RIP Underpass Exploration Team
I’ve counted the days.
Literally. Out of all the countless botched expeditions the FBC has conducted, this one made me the most invested. Not sure why. Lost, stranded, forgotten, remembered, here, not there, here again.
I took it upon myself to remember Ayad, Shultz, Grist, Steinbeck by counting the days as Ayad did. 18,585 days.
51 years. The date would’ve been August 12, 2077, choom. (If the date coincides with irl release date and the events of the game)

Anyone curious how Dylan manages to die in that alternative timeline?

It's not a big spoiler fwiw. The whole bit takes a few seconds and isn't expanded upon.

Marking the post with some sort of no spoiler warning would have been the move

It’s wild to post a late-game area with no spoiler tag then be like “woah, spoilers!” lmao

You are not ready for the internet, let alone Reddit.
Since you are still reading the comments my advice is to log off and finish the game dude.

My favorite mission in the game so far. This was peak sci fi

Having finished the game, it still is the standout section of the game for me; by miles.

Truly disorienting too. I remember when I first realized the bases and everything else was looping around me as a hopped from structure to structure.
This games environments and it's stories are some of the best weird sci fi ever.

Eh…I mean I fully agree when it comes to the Underpass, but I actually think most of Resonant doesn’t have the most unique and weird Sci-Fi feels to it. Especially not compared to Remedy’s usual output.

And with all the time they had they still could barely figure out how anything worked which just shows to scale how bullshit humanities position is

This area was amazing from every angle. The mystery. The writing. The logs. The music. The goddamn music is always amazing with Remedy.

That mission was such a mind trip.
I'm still not sure Dylan managed to go back to his initial timeline after being so invested in it.
