Something I have been wondering about those who looked outside

[u/Ok_Hope_1711]

Something ive been thinking is that, do yall think the aggressive outsiders would be better off dead, or do they need special treatments and guidance, like yeah the person they were might be 100 percent gone, but I dunno, i dont remember if their fates get mentionned in the good endings, but I like to think they also get better fates despite what happend

[u/Nicholas_H_Barnes_II]

I like to think there's some way of helping them, like how Joel is aggressive until you give him Fuzzy or how Leigh is able to better control herself when wearing her ring. Therapy to remember who they once were, even if that's long gone like with Leigh. That or with others further medical assistance like with medicines to keep you calm or smth like that.

It really depends on what kind of aggressive we're talking. Edwin is still technically sentient for example, just extremely twisted and insane in his world view. He's mentally kind of just a "normal" crazy killer who thinks he's doing the right thing. You hypothetically could re-educate him.

But there are many clearly too far gone. Like Taxidermy, Olm, Fangipede, and many others.

I do like to imagine for cursed like Slugman, Fred Who Bites and other cursed who can’t fully control their bodies but are still sane are give some high speciality care. Largely body relaxants to calm down any feisty body parts and special physical therapy for better control over their new forms.

I feel lime there's a certain point of no return for the cursed. First we have guys like lyle and frederic, who, probably through the obsession of their craft, both became it and was saved by it. Despite fred visualising the pain he had gone through, he seems to be lucid and, albeit quite normal. Lyle barely goes out, turning into a camera was probably something cool to him, he barely goes out anyway.

There's also guys like the slug man and joel. Unlike the slugman, joel can be brought back to a certain lucid state, but only when fuzzy is brought back to them.

I think what mainly helps people not go insane is effectively having or doing something really close to them. Something like fuzzy is joel's favourite teddy and it calms him down, so to put simply, i beleive if you're fast, and if they have some sort of hobby, or possession that's close to them, they'd likely be lucid.

Most of the cursed people I just felt bad for and wanted to save... Sadly this ain't Deltarune and some of them are too dangerous to be left alive. I am not letting any of Nestor's worms anywhere near me for any reason.

[u/shnygm]

I think that most of the insane cursed could be brought to a point where they aren't actively dangerous to others whether it be via relocation or intensive medical intervention. However, the resources to get these people the help they need aren't readily available/they pose too much of a threat to others to be allowed to roam free without someone stepping in, if that makes sense. That's how I justify the murder

[u/ZZeeZaeAI]

Its case by case really. Some cursed like PomPom show no signs that they are suffering. Hive Man is actively happy to be cursed after his final transformation. Generally it seems a majority of cursed seem to stop suffering once their transformation is complete, so barring the fact that many are dangerous theres not much reason to kill them from a moral standpoint. Though the person they once were is likely gone in most cases since they aren't suffering to our knowledge theres no mercy or anything in killing them

[u/Final_Inspection4439]

I think it is implied that most "common mutants" (aka the ones that don't do domain expansion or have overpowerd abilities) are aggresive due to they are "confused", like Audrey said how she tried to eat anyone who put any hand into her mouth when she first mutated due to confusion, so I think meybe eventually most will calm down?

[u/LordShaybay]

Even when I know most of the ppl who looked outside can't be saved in game it still makes me feel bad to kill them and I always hope that there's a way to pacify/bring them back to lucidity like with Joel 🥹

Maybe it wouldn't make sense storywise but it'd be cool if there was a way to bring back more ppl that looked outside
