#it doesnt see the point it is confused by life's desire to continue through hardships

[aphantimes]

i love the end actually it's so so fascinating

just thinking about how it immediately introduces itself as the arbiter of order.... it being a representation of death, its goal being to instill "peace" by annihilating all life....

like. ok. if it is "order", is "death", then that would mean chaos is life, right? its antithesis. the emeralds. sources of great catastrophes, but also grand miracles. they are equal parts beautiful and terrifying. they are life. life is messy, is painful, is unpredictable, it evolves and changes and grows. death is nothingness. the absence of all sensation, of all emotion. stagnation. none of the bad, but at the cost of all of the good. technically, "peace".

the end refers to itself as one of the living. i think, if it were to succeed in wiping out all life, it would then willingly destroy itself. it wholly believes in what it says. it isn't evil for the sake of being evil, from its perspective it's a saviour. doing what it sees as "necessary".

#its philosophy is so so interesting man #like its. nihilism #it doesnt see the point it is confused by life's desire to continue through hardships #chaos and order and life and death aaaaaaa......... #it deserved better execution #like they could've done something with this to show how destructive this mindset of thinking everything is pointless is #how its not true and life IS worth it through all the highs and lows #have sonic open its eyes to the reality that life is precious #theres hints of that as it dies #'is this the beginning of evolution? i see... so that is what life is' #paraphrasing but yea #goshhh its so interesting okay #sonic frontiers the end
