      I'm not a book reader, so this scene is the only scene so far that hasn't paid off for me.
      Will says in the hospital that he isn't on the side of humanity, but only on Jin's side. So it doesn't make sense to me that he's gonna buy a fictitious star for Jin to help the war efforts.
      So I don't want to be spoiled with details, but can anyone answer if this is scene gonna pay off (or at least be relevant) later in the series?

      It sends a medsage that this idiot should have never been given 17 million to piss away like a child. He could have named a star himself. But he paid some random con artist who said he owned all the stars to sell. How stupid can you be? There were millions of other ways he could have actually done some good. Helped starving children, saved thousands of lives with medical care. Oh no, but he needed an organization to tell him he owned a star and he showed his last act on earth was as useless and pathetic as his whole life. I liked will and i lost all respect for him. There is nothing romantic or dymbolic about beimg scammed and everyone who thinks it is great is just a big of a tool. He could have started a foundation where they name stars and take the money to heal sick kids. He could have done it for free or made a pretty plaque for nothing and helped in ways that actually made a difference. This is an act of a selfish child.

    Will Downing is the definition of a beautiful soul. he didn't make too much of an impression on me at first, but as the season unfolded he became the heart and soul of the Oxford Five. he wasn't the smartest or bravest or most driven, but he was so unmitigatedly GOOD that in a way he represented why humanity was worthy of saving. i love that there were so many opportunities for his love subplot with Jin to descend into sappy or cringe, but it NEVER did. it was just perfect.
    as i understand he's not really dead and will come to play a huge role with Jin at the end - but even so, god, you could feel the devastation when Jin wasn't there in time to say goodbye to him, and again when the staircase project failed in a way that sent him careening off course. ooooof.

    My boyfriend and I have been through a lot over the past 5.5 years. It took us many years to finally end up together, and I’ve never loved nor have I ever been loved this way.
    Video Games was one of the songs I sent to him a long time ago as a reminder that whatever hard times we were going through, I’d do anything for him. Even if we weren’t together, whatever the circumstance, I still loved him. He was worth something to me.
    Seeing Will in this scene, not wanting anything, just purely enjoying what little time he has left, getting a star for the girl he loves while this song is playing made me completely fall apart.
    Humanity can be fucking rough. People can be evil. Its hard to trust anyone. And no one cares about each other.
    But this. Seeing this. With the song I sent to the person I would transcend space and time for, that makes it all worth it

    A very moving scene, made me cry even while rewatching it, that's how powerful it is. But this clip doesn't do it full justice, as the instrumental intro starts as the scene sets off at around 41:59 (episode 6). To me, it is precisely this lyrical detour, creating space for the scene to pan out adagio, while the (soon) well known song is creeping up on you, that is the magic of this segment.

      Well the whole program is donating large sums of money to help humanity and in return you get your own star. I think Will felt like that this was a good use of money.
      1. He can help humanity.
      2. He can express his love for Jin.

    Ngl, this scene (and his general storyline) frustrated the heck outta me.
    This action came across as very selfish. As much as I can see this as a beautiful gesture; he could have been cherished, loved, and been such a devoted man. His biggest enemy was himself and these characters always irk me when they do shit like this an act like some silent hero.
    BE LOVED YOU DESERVE IT.
    Ps, I do like, from everyones inferences etc, that there is a payoff down the line for Will with his star. This man deserves a damn W. One that he should be allowed to experience. 😢

      @@roastpork5437 I'm not going to give him his dues simply because you know the story and you expect me to not go through the feelings the story illicits.
      My impression is without the nuances you're aware of. I look at his current situation as being frustrating because it really tells the an old age story of unrequited love where he deserved to be love. His selfish actions that are depicted in the story can be taken in different lights but it makes him human. Humans can make stupid decisions; stupid decisions doesn't mean they're the wrong choice. Regardless, im hoping his story does have a pay off. And with the story telling, i know it'll be worth it. 😍🙌
      I will give him this credit. Jin missed out a beautiful soul in this life. 😫😭🤧

      Gifting Jin a pricey gift without revealing yourself is already cringey to me, but then on top of that you spend your fortune on a fictitious star? That's just asking to get scammed.
      Book readers say it's gonna be relevant later on, so here's to me suspending my judgement of this scene and waiting for the pay off.

      When Jin learned that Will bought the star for her, her initial thought of how fool it was (wasting so much money for a piece of paper) is changed to be how tremendous his love to her was. She then made sure that his love is not wasted and loves him completely, though it was already too late.
      So, is it a waste of money? Selfish, yes, because Jin is Will's priority even in his final breath and that's what he only cares about. But I don't think it's a waste of money, because the money was used to launched his brain into space, the only possible solution at the time to fight the Trisolaran people..
