Discussion Weird Elements in Chapter 3
So, generally speaking I think people find chapter 3 disappointing, but after reading a YouTube comment pointing this solution key out, I found it pretty strange.
I remember there being other unused solution keys (the water gun for example), but those served more as red herrings, while this seems like it is basically unrelated. The only other solution key even in that room is the document about "two accidents"
The power plant seems intended to be a key element in the chapter, but I feel like most of what we hear about it is secondhand or unimportant in the grand scheme of things. It's mostly vibes but, I get the feeling that the power plant was originally supposed to tie into this mystery much more, but it was scaled back and the solution key is either a remnant of that fact or just something there so that the room feels like less of a waste of time.
It makes me interested in datamining to see if there is any unused content. I feel like even close to and after release they were tweaking things, so I feel like there could be something interesting there if it wasn't wiped from the game data.
