Other times you see the person you knew but they're further and further away. Some days it's like caring for a full sized infant. Having lived with and cared for someone with Alzheimer's and watch them fade away, I made similar decisions initially but still didn't have the same takeaway. I was Henry seeking peace with his loss, and that by the end, all did accomplish was to run errands to some self-centered lady and "butterly effect" killing thousands of animals in the process. I didn't get the Henry who actually, maybe, can't even visit his wife because she is in Australia. Henry, who falls in love with the voice on the radio and gets frustrated because she, ultimately, doesn't love him back. I didn't get the fantastic experience of Henry, being on the edge of Alcoholism, needs some time away from the World to get his life together again. When Delilah started to being pushy about "the two of us", I was polite, and by the end of the game, when Delilah started to really sound like an asshole to me, with the whole silence and "not interested", all I wanted was to say how much of a shitty person she was. I took my ring when the game didn't automatically put it on my finger, and the first thing I checked in my tower was her photo, and I took it with me in the end. I was never into Delilah, Henry for me always loved Julia. My Henry didn't even had friends to drink in the bar anymore, as they seemed bothered that I got my wife in a clinic. The people who chose to ignore Julia's sickness and pretend they could care at her at home, they got drunken Henry, who locks his own wife in her room to try to bang other chicks, who drinks too much, and end up having his wife taken far away from him. On and ruining some girls drunk adventures. All I did was to end up being somehow responsibly for startling a PTSD dude, burning the whole park down, and finding a rotting kid in a cave. The person I loved only existed now in my head, she was "gone".Īnd so, because of it, my whole experience in the "game" part of Firewatch was meaningless. And when Julia didn't recognize Bucket anymore, thats it. I didn't really enjoy the game forcing me to "visit her less and less" but okay, I'm just a part of Henry, not him entirely. I chose to take Julia to a doctor, find out what was wrong with her, and once the choice presented itself, I chose to send her to a clinic to get the medical care she deserved. And then I realize, most, if not all of those people, made a very different choice in the prologue: In a way, she reminded me of Internet dating in the early 2000s, being absurdly pushy but losing all interest as soon as you had no more use to the other person.įast Foward some days, and after watching some people play/comment the game, I was shocked to see how differently other people approached the game. By the end of the game, I wanted Henry to meet her just to say how much of a shitty person she was, to have that eye-to-eye moment of "what now?". I really didn't enjoy FireWatch as much as I thought I would, I felt that Delilah was possibly one of the more egocentrical human beings in a video-game, pushy and extremely self-centered. I know this is an unpopular opinion, but what harm can it do?
