This has to be the best video game ending in quite some time

even in maelle's ending they're hinting that verso's ending was the chad choice

Anon right and you sir are in fact a retard.

fuck off retard

fuck off retard

They really need to add a footwear on/off toggle for Lune's outfits.

have you been living in a cave? it's the new GOTY

Yeah, probably. videogames are terrible so there isn't a lot to compare it to.

Nigga...

Versofags have some kind of mental illness, look at them seething

gets told to fuck off

just doubles down

not a good look

stop posting at any time

I honestly can't even tell anymore if this is meant to be an actual discussion of the game or ragebait

why is sleek n tears crying?

Naw, Lucian need to be playable for that.

he was a bro
fucking parries and endgame enemy like it's nothing

that parry was impressive

So were there only girls in the team outside of Verso because it's Verso's dream world?
Makes sense I guess.

As I said, mental illness...

Why are you forgetting Monoco? But the real reason is that the devs are based and wanted people to have a team of barefoot sluts wearing bikinis. And for that, I salute France.

fuck off retard

just ignore and report him for being a troll

Anything that isn't Verso ending is literally trolling, no media literacy and/or stupidity.
Possibly also transexualism

this nigga still can't take the L

zoomers can't admit when they're wrong

very true

This wouldn’t be out of place in a Black Mirror episode. Just replace the painted world with a VR world.

it makes zero sense for it to be one of gustave's apprentices from a narrative standpoint
it's obvious maelle brought back the child version of her brother - and makes it more twisted that she makes him watch his older self play to her whims

yes anyone with a brain knows this
which is why maellefags do not

I was really convinced by the Verso ending too but then I replayed the game and something stroke me.

In Verso's ending, Gustave is not waving at Alicia, but beckoning her.

The man that she cared for most as Maelle is calling her over. To join him in death. That's like the opposite of a hopeful ending. Maelle ends up the litteral parallel to painted Verso in hers. Trapped in a life she doesn't want wishing she could die.

There is fairly high chance Maelle will kill herself in the future and is strongly hinted by the writers.

but beckoning her.

Keep spamming this and one day someone will believe you.

something stroke me

I think you had a stroke

it makes zero sense for it to be one of gustave's apprentices from a narrative standpoint

It makes all the sense considering the whole expedition was to give a future generation chance for a peaceful life and apprentices constantly mentioned during the game as you write the journal.

god maellefags are so retarded

the lil nigga dropped the journal and ran off
also what the fuck does that have to do with bringing only one of the 3-4 kids to watch the show? why doesn't she bring them all?
you fucking retard. just admit you're wrong.

you're arguing with an esl bro

maelle resurrecting and bringing lil verso to watch punished verso is meant to illustrate just how far gone she is and you would have to be an absolute brainlet of the highest order to think it's one of gustav's appreciates because not only does it not make sense to bring only one of them, they'd obviously come with gustave and sophie

STOP WITH YOUR HEADCANONS EVERYTHING'S PERFECT AND SHE'S SUPER HAPPY AND VERSO WANTED TO PLAY FOR HER
REEEEEEEEEE

kek

based and truthpilled

I mean I'm not saying I know who the kid is but he is primarily shown with Lune and she is the one who checks on him before the show starts, Maelle doesn't interact with the kid.

found the maellefag

to illustrate just how far gone she is

everyone with a functioning brain knows it's verso

how is it even humanly possible to be this dense

next you retards will claim it's Line's younger brother or kid

jesus christ almighty neck yourself

lmao

yes because she's a caring person and maelle it just using him as a dopamine hit while sciel is over there pretending she didn't cheat on her husband with adult verso even knowing full well she could bringer her husband back that fucking slut

she really is a fucking whore

it just

is*

You assume Sciel even remembers the events of the game.

fucking hell you just can't take the L can you?

oh she remembers that big verso dick

it's a joke you fucking imbecile

don't bother with this absolute retard

How adventurous of you to think Alicia would allow anyone to know about her dear brother's cock.

The part that illustrates "just how far she is" is the whole fucking thing. She isn't meant to be there, her face expressions make it clear she is a bit insecure and probably lives in a constant state of mild stress over knowing what she is doing to herself. It sucks that Versofags don't get that and have to come up with head canon shit like "She is using anime brain control powers on everyone around her"

Maelle/Alicia's ending is her fucking up completely, and Maellefags can't handle that.

anime brain control powers

Oh, you brought this back again.
Based retard.

yep.the damage control over her ending is insane.

she's literally a painter you fucking imbecile

kill yourself you waste of oxygen

Idiotic retard. Painters can't assume direct control over painted creations like fucking Harbinger. They can create things that they can instill their ideas into, but nobody, not even Aline who is the best painter of them all, can control a painted person. Not even once does this happen or is even implied. Fucktard. Get out of here.

maellefags once again proving their absolutely brainless

why are you guys so angry

Either show one scene or dialogue line where a painter uses so called brain control powers or shut the fuck up forever with your head canon vomit. One chance, post a clip, image, quote, now. Either do it or fuck off.

Friendly reminder you're arguing with literal tranny predditor here, the evidence is just too much at this point

clea would like a word

Simon says hello

wut

His ending broke me anon, pls understand

there are multiple instances in which people are 'painted over' and made to be entirely different, retard

Clea, twice at that.
The ending happens after some undetermined amount of time from the ending since Alicia has brought back "everyone" so she's obviously upped her skills and Verso is now her own creation.

christ you're retarded
aline painted renoir to be a psycho so that is a form of control

this fucking maellefag lmao

let this be a lesson
never go full retard

Do you actually think Clea spends every waking hour mind controlling Simon to sit around doing what she wants, or do you think she didn't like him so she repainted him into being how she wants (not brain control and something that Maelle is explicitly said to not be able to do). I'll give you a hint, only one of those is correct.

because this maellefag is in complete denial that his waifu is a fucking psycho in her ending like her mother

What clea did was paint over someone else's creation.
From the moment Alicia brought him back, verso is hers.

you're the one who brought up the brain control bullshit though

Jokes on you I think that's hot

This is the most fucktarded thing I have ever seen regarding this game and the only thing you have revealed is that you have not played it. I don't think you have even watched the story on youtube. Please tell me you are trying to suggest that Aline painting a version of Renoir constitutes a form of brain control. Because that would be so funny.

nobody mentioned mind control but you
everyone is telling you she just repainted them as in reprogrammed them

you fucking dolt

i never said anything about brain control you fucking imbecile. i said aline painted renoir to be more of an asshole than his normal self because she is pissed at him constantly trying to pull her out of the canvas, and painted alicia with her scars and inability to speak because she despises her.

you're so dumb it actually is hurting me on a physical level

Maellefags somehow managed to convince everyone that genocide is good
Just incredible

No I didn't, the prevailing head canon theory Versofags post is that Maelle is using brain control powers on Verso in the end to make him play the piano, they post everywhere claiming that is the case and not that Verso enters the stage as a way to show he has been forced to accept living in the canvas and will continue to exist in misery against his will.

LUNE SEX AAAAAAAAAAARGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I don't even need to have played the game to blow you the fuck out. This video is enough.

youtu.be/rOcOBcsQ540?si=nrTEYktnWgM8BIRX

No I didn't

Yes. You're the only person in this thread to mention "brain control". Also, it's called mind control you fucking retard ESL sperg.

kill yourself retard

I am not watching your video retard, go peddle your shit somewhere else.

Anon those are Versofags

painted alicia with her scars and inability to speak because she despises her

man that's fucked up

i'm not going to get btfo again thank you

sure thing

lmao this nigga scared

Just because you are shamefully trying to ditch one head canon theory for another doesn't mean you get away with it. These threads have been going on for several days now, I remember the dumb shit you people say.

waifufag is a braindead ESL

whoa never would've seen this coming

The evil ending is so much better than the good ending. The shots are just so much more memorable. I think it would have been best as the default ending.

Alicia itade nai~
Verso is a cunt nigger
Lune ai~

head canon

verso literally telling alicia she is talented enough to paint her own worlds

nah she couldn't possibly have done that with her version of those characters haha that's just head canon

cope with some rope

schizo alert

I told you to post a clip or line of dialogue to back up your head canon shit and instead you advertise the analysis you skimmed through to learn about the story, because you didn't play the game.

I'm shocked!

because you didn't play the game

Is this dude really trying this angle when I literally posted my playtime?

he's a complete fucking sperg who is projecting his lack of understanding of the story unto others because he's a pathetic waifufag

i think I'll just stop giving him (You)s at this point

good idea

exactly

lune seething

e33 waving their goodbyes

verso's grave saying "forever painted in our hearts"

to the tomorrows still unwritten playing in the background

I disagree.

Too much melodramatic cheese with the Dessandres being all huggy and shit. I don't care about this family at all.

Instead of posting youtube analysis slop or totally your playtime you could just do as asked and back up your theory. But it seems to be the one thing you can't do.

That's on you then.

why are you guys so angry

That's just one obnoxious samefag in this thread that can't stop seething, best to just ignore him.

what's the meaning of the birthday (?) cake?
there's one of them in the room when you're Alicia right before jumping in the painting

I care about Renoir, the man is the goat

see
fuck off and die sperg

literal game events

theory

lmao you keep claiming others haven't played the game when you come off like that the most

losing hard

replies to this half an hour later

fucking pathetic lmao

well retards do love projecting

maellefag in denial his waifu is an evil bitch in her own ending

this dude spergs out in every fucking thread too

refuses to accept the ending that heals her because she doesn't get her way

Either a Maellefag or a Lunefag, the later would make more sense.

renoir also reinforces this notion too because he loves Alicia and wants her to aim for the sky and all that jazz

lunefags only care about feet like monoco

kek how sad it is

So that's your theory, Maelle created a new version of young Verso to show off in front of old Verso and mock him, who she repainted into being her piano slave (even though it is explicitly stated that Maelle can't paint over people because she is not talented enough). Even though she is clearly obsessed with the specific painted Verso she met in the game, refusing to let him die, loving him for being like her dead brother but also accepting that he is different.

Yeah, except

fucks verso

gets deleted

gets deleted

as should all pump n dumps

she didn't paint over adult verso you fucking idiot

your denial is fucking insane

the only person who said she isn't talented enough was clea
renoir and verso say otherwise

Literally saying what other Versofags are saying, not what I believe. But I'm glad we agree.

yes the whole point is she has lost the plot like her mother and she had a hidden talent for painting which clea kept trying to put down

you're fucking autistic

Clea and Aline treat Alicia like shit and don't respect her painting skills, but it's Maelle herself who says she can't paint over other peoples' creations.

wow it's as if she's insecure or something and verso's dying words woke something up inside her which allowed her to continue larping

I still have zero idea who the kid in Maelle's ending is. Definitely not one of Gustave's apprentices. Why do we think it's little Verso?

Maelle ends up the litteral parallel to painted Verso in hers. Trapped in a life she doesn't want wishing she could die

damn I'm stupid for not seeing this immediately
this game really is all artistic and shit
Anon Babble fucking hates video games

there is even the scene where she couldn't repaint lune and sciel but verso gives her some inspiration and it works

anyway that anon is a sperg so no more replying to him

Why do we think it's little Verso

who else could it be?
why wouldn't she want two versions of her brother around since she's going into maximum overcope?

She did, though. She makes him age at least, that counts as modifying Aline's code/repainting.

"we" think it's little verso because the ending is meant to show she reached her mother's level of grief where she's lost her mind and besides that who the fuck else would it be

no you dickhead
verso died
she repainted him in her image
she didn't paint over an existing being like clea did with simon

Putting Lune and Sciel's chroma back together is not the same as painting over another person's creation. You said it yourself that's repainting, not painting over. The only examples in the story of an existing creation being painted over are Simon and Painted Clea. It could be that the ending takes place a long time after and Maelle has greatly increased her painting skill, but I don't think so.

implying it's even the same canvas

see post below yours

verso died

she repainted him in her image

The Verso we see in her ending clearly understands the situation he's in though. So at the very least she repainted him with the same memories as real Verso and he realizes she's become addicted to the canvas. Still fucked up.

the jumpscare was unnecessary. this ending shouldve been more bittersweet. maelle shouldve recreated gustav to fight verso

I'm starting to think maelle's ending could even be a nightmare of hers that Alicia is having

that's the dumbest shit in this thread
and that's really saying something

recreates gustave

verso tells him what will happen to her

tells her to fuck off from the canvas

There is no way to know who it is unless the writer says so, no need to ask "who the fuck else would it be" like only your theory has any substance, the game straight up does not elaborate at all. All we know is it's a kid with black hair, it could be a new Verso, it could be a random apprentice of Gustave's (I doubt it), it could be the fading child remade, it could be Lune's kid, it could be Sciel's or Sophie's kid.

I think it's actually one the orphans Maelle is with in Lumiere at the beginning.

the fading child remade would be verso
why the fuck would it be lune or sciel's kid?
gustave and sciel don't even interact with him

I was gonna call you a retard but..gustave turning around to beat Maelle's ass and tell her to go home would be too Kino.

it isn't
and again just like the apprentices, why just one?
this denial that's its young verso to show how fucked up she's become is beyond retarded

I don't think it's Lune's kid but she is the only one who interacts with him, and she shows him affection. Remember Lune still has all her memories and knows everything that happened, I doubt she would approve of Maelle magicking up a Verso clone child to parade around while the original painted Verso is right there.

hates older verso

makes him old and is somehow forcing him to play as shown by her fucked up face

ressurected young verso who she prefers

it's really that simple

we're shown an important kid without a face right near the end of the game

a few minutes later a new, singular kid shows up hanging out with the main characters

"who's this new kid? could be anyone"

Autists like you who need everything spelt out to them shouldn't be discussing artistic works.

as previously stated it's because lune is caring and it's to contrast maelle who is basically ignoring him most of the time

it's just complete retardation to not realize it's verso

NOOOOOOOOOOOO IT'S TOTALLY LUNE'S KID REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MAELLE IS A GOOD GIRL :(

If she wanted that she could have just left the canvas and made her own canvas filled with Verso clones to waste her life away with. It's made very obvious she cares about that specific Verso and keeps him alive against his will to spend more time with him.

not only are we shown the kid but verso confirms it's the real verso's soul

it wouldn't make sense it being another canvas because the whole point is her wanting to be in the canvas with verso's soul (the kid)

well what's little is left of it anyway

whole point of her ending is to show her spiraling out of control like aline

nah it's just some random kid for no reason lmao not the fractured boy we saw 5 minutes ago who was confirmed to be verso's soul haha that's not important

that particular cake is very obviously a black forest cake and thus a somewhat dated cake is a lie reference
=

verso's ending is how to deal with grief
maelle's ending is how not to deal with it

I think the kid being a "repaired" version of the fading child is interesting, his appearances towards the end show he is willing to be swayed either way towards painting or not painting, but Maelle doesn't actually interact with him in the painting, maybe because she just wants him to shut up and keep painting.

why the fuck would it be some random kid lmao
verso takes the kid to fade away in his ending and maelle takes him to her fantasy world in hers

they couldn't make it clearer is they tried

maelle's ending is that she is a brocon and that she would literally rather die than not being one

he's just a crutch like literally everyone around her

wat

is

if*
fucking need sleep

it's a pretty big difference between it being the fading child (a representation of the canvas itself, i.e. its creator pouring his soul into his creation) or Maelle being so fucked that she makes a kid Verso for her personal amusement like people were implying earlier in the thread

yeah maelle's ending is better because it's more tragic

literally everyone around her in the ending is there for her amusement - that's the point of the ending

both endings end with Maelle saying how she can't let go of verso = she is a brocon It's a joke..kinda, but yeah her biggest motivation from the whole of act 3 is literally being with Verso again

They would be there anyway in a "good" ending, the point is she does a good thing in saving them but is completely wrong about wanting to live in there with them. I think that's what I like about both endings, Maelle wants to do the right thing for the most selfish bad reason, and Verso wants to do the most fucked up unfair cruel thing for a good reason.

Honestly that is the best take. It's a fucking shit ending, but the B&W and verso's expression go hard as fuck

The kid is obviously Lune and Verso's son

He doesn't look asian enough to me. But it is somewhat implied that Verso stays with Lune in the end, through one of the songs' lyrics and through Sciel having her husband back.

I think it's one or two literal kids shitting up the thread and spamming "retard", "maellefags retarded" every two posts. Like some other anon said, the game has a same face problem and the kid does look like that one apprentice. Not surprised people think it's him

The contrarian Anon Babblearrative is to push for maelle and say she literally did nothing wrong in her ending
