i really think the franchise works best when it was more Ambiguous, rather than just an outright paranormal force that controls people. i don't even like the concept of daniel grind as it humanizes something that i think should be more of an unexplainable event, rather than just being in you face about what it is. don't get me wrong, i like the fun scenarios you can do with that concept, but i feel like the point of the franchise was to be an outright unknown to anyone except for people far into the franchise, this isn't me saying i don't like SOTWS and/or the people who worked on it, it's a great expansion to an already great fangame, i just wanted to talk about how i wish the story was told.
