    This game seems to be directly inspired by Jonan Vasquez's "Johnny the Homocidal Maniac" graphic novel series. In it, Johnny must do much as Ralph does to keep the monster in his wall from destroying the world. Between the fact that Johnny is a main character in this game and that series, the shared premise, and the fact that the evil entity in this game is ZIMforth while Vasquez's most famous work is Invader ZIM, I think the likelihood that there was some direct inspiration here very likely.

    • @TheTrueTerrydactyl
      @TheTrueTerrydactyl День назад +214

    Spoilers:
    I'm surprised the developer didn't make the the ending "oh it was all in Ralph's head". It was a easy set up, and still would have been a good game had he done so. But making it so ambiguous about whether zimforth was real or not really puts you into the head space of Ralph and Jonny. It definitely makes the game's story really unique.

      i think either way its an amazing story, zimforth being real really gets u invested and have to think about how many people johnny just accidently killed and the grief and realisation that everything is for a reason and johnny probably thinking the mc was insane and for years just beating himself up over speaking to a psychopath only to then realise that everything he had thought he had known for years and years was all fake and there really was an evil god

    This game is so intriguing. On one side, the protagonist comes off as a complete monster, tormenting Johnny for years.

    I think one of my favourite things about this game is that Ralph is actually being tormented by some eldritch god and it’s not just a situation where he’s mentally unwell. Obviously there’s no hard evidence to say that Zimforth actually exists as the earthquake really could’ve been poor timing, which does lead the god’s existence to be somewhat ambiguous, it does feel right that they do exist and have tasked Ralph with killing specific people. Since after all, a lot of the requirements for killing folk are behind information that Ralph doesn’t know until after he stalks them

      I think you're meant to feel bad for both of them. Ralph isn't some cold monster, he hates what he does. He hates having to keep Johnny locked up and stealing his youth from him. Johnny is furious, of course, but eventually learns that Ralph is just so lonely and isn't just some heartless monster. Sure, some part of him will probably always resent Ralph, but he gets it. It's so freakin sad. This game does deserve more eyes on it.

      And like the comment above me mentioned, Ralph feels awful about everything he does and isn't even close to mental stability, whether Zimforth is real or not (I personally believe he has to be), Ralph isn't really in control of what he does
      On an unrelated note, how the hell does bro get away with everything?

    I feel like it'd be a neat idea that if people chose to kill Ralph, then Zimforth's new victim would be Johnny. It would be a hope sinking ending, but the events would kind of go full circle.

      I know most people have grown up thinking this is a true phenomenon thanks to popular media, but Stockholm Syndrome isn't a real thing. If you look up its origin, some guy made it up when hostages sided with their captors because the captors cared about their lives more than the police (who were risking the hostages' lives while trying to get the criminals, bank robbers I think). The guy that coined the term never even spoke to the hostages, he just couldn't believe people would ever side with the "bad guys" over the "good guys" and decided it had to be a mental break.

    • @phoenixpheothers3525
      @phoenixpheothers3525 11 часов назад +7

      Ok no but you're COMPLETELY right! This game shows EXACTLY why Stockholm Syndrome ISN'T a real thing. It was thought of as a concept because victims of captivity, primarily women, would sometimes come out of it feeling pity for their captors. They understood that while they were doing wrong, they were (sometimes) also a victim of circumstance and the system and felt "forced" into committing their crimes, just like Ralph here. Because it's POSSIBLE to acknowledge that two conflicting things, a captor also being a victim, CAN be true at once. But the people conceptualizing "Stockholm Syndrome" didn't think that was possible, mainly for sexist reasons. And I just love so much how this game does use a male victim specifically to point out how this is possible, since the idea that "Stockholm Syndrome" is such a female thing and/or falling in "false love" with captors (shipping aside lol). It makes it so much easier to see for many people that it's not some fault in the brain or manipulation tactic, it's just genuine human pity and understanding and connection.

    @oweyy_ 17 часов назад +3

    The fact it was left pretty up to interpretation if you think Zimforth is a real entity or to just showed how clinically insane Ralph was that he could believe such a thing is such a good ending. Here's my reasons why Zimforth is real though:
    The purple color is the biggest argument in Zimforth's favor. I think he is some of god manifesting in the form of purple smoke trail or light.
    - Why would the lamp and TV would suddenly change colors or the fact it's off/on? Johnny couldn't see it, only Ralph too. Don't think these are coincidences, think these are Zimforth's subtle reminders he's always there
    - Zimforth's color is clearly purple and especially through electrical equipment it can appear in the form of purple light. After the earthquake, the electricity that can be seen is very similar in color to his appearance.
    - In the other ending Mark didn't do where Ralph sacrifices Johnny, Zimforth's purple light is there in the overhead basement lamp, and vanishes when the ritual is over. The light of the sun from outside shines into the basement to light it, instead of the overhead basement lamp. This means the overhead lamp wasn't turned on, and was instead the real purple light of Zimforth.
    Other notes that I think support the Zimforth theory:
    - If Ralph was severely ill his madness should have started much sooner, it's stated he had no reason to kill anyone until ordered by Zimforth.
    - Ralph feels any pain or consequence the moment he disregards Zimforth's orders. Ralph had always followed orders out of fear before Johnny, and as soon has he disobeys there's immediate pain and other real-world consequences?
    - Ralph admits that he has never read the Bible, nor was in any church or cult. Which is interesting because an evil god does not necessarily need these to demonstrate his existence. Zimforth doesn't need a bible, a church or a cult to have manipulated weak people please him through ritualistic sacrifice.
    - The greatest earthquake follows from Ralph's denial of Zimforth's command. Before this when Ralph was always obedient for many years, there were no cruel events such as this at all.
    - Johnny initially thinks Ralph will commit the ritual on him, and Ralph says he has no intention to do so - he only acts on Zimforth's list. The sudden purple light shows Zimforth's existence here again, and quiets & stops Ralph as he knows Zimforth is observing. And if Zimforth wasn't real, why wouldn't Ralph want to kill Johnny already by then if he's just some deranged serial killer, whywould a murderer suddenly "change" to spare a random individual?
    Ralph only kills who he is given orders to by a deity, as it makes much more sense for Ralph to spare Johnny from sacrifice in the context of Zimforth being real. Ralph just does, only does "what he says."
    - Not as good of evidence, but the music of Johnny's death is titled "Zimforth's Final Request"
    Note: I don't think Zimforth is as strong as he claims, he appears much more than he really is, he's not allat. An important factor that increases Zimforth's evil and decreases his power is that he only has power over weak-willed people. He is a sadistic coward who can't target the mentally strong, those who can't be manipulated. He's supposed to be so strong that he could destroy the entire world? Torture in a person's mind, electrokinesis, geokinesis. Interesting powers, but weak for someone who can apparently end the entire universe. Even the show of Zimforth's wrath in the form of this big earthquake is only enough to moderately damage local infrastructure, and he's quick to show his wrath to Ralph through his headaches and the earthquakes since only the ritual is enough to please him. I just think Zimforth manipulates and lies about his "world-ending" ability to Ralph. If you can end the world Zimforth, why bother with one guy's murdering when the destruction of entire galaxies as sacrifice is within your reach?
    It's also unknown what Zimforth really is. Is he humanoid or not? Or is he literally the purple color / trail itself? Great game, great ending by the way. Really moving, loved the characters and their dynamics

    This is one of the few games that has made me actually audibly sob. I had to pause the video for a moment after Johnny told Ralph to kill him. Jesus man this is really good. It’s so simple yet so.. So complex.

    The story of this game reminds me of something Stephen King might have written.

      yeah but Ralph doomed everyone so he could live for 1 day. In reality people his age die every second.

    This needs to be made into a movie immediately. The story is so unique and I really want someone to play with the concept more. I was not expecting Johnny to begin to sympathize with Ralph and I think that relationship dynamic is really neat. I also want to see the consequences of him not killing Johnny.

    Everybody remember the plan! If you have time and want to, watch/rewatch The Edge of Sleep. I just checked earlier and didn’t see it in the top 10
