Currently looking for a video editor to help me continue this series. I am unable to prioritize the editing time, hence the long delay. The only reward would be credit for the work, conversations about the material, and personal satisfaction. Call out to me in the Furi channel of the Game Bakers Discord if you're interested.

I dig how deeply you dig into their personalities and possible representations

Further evidence of a biological connection is the "destroyed everything in her wake" line. It's our tendency to accept the colloquial meaning here of "wanton destruction", but when we finally reach the surface of the world, we witness death everywhere we have walked, literally "in our wake". I actually did not notice this double meaning when I made the video, and thankfully it would not have been appropriate to mention as I'm avoiding the use of information from later on in the game (otherwise I would end up with analysis paralysis and never finish a single video -- this is hard enough as it is). Given the rate I'm going, I had to share this now rather than ten years later when I get there. ;)

Mad respect to ur level of insight in this game hope to see the next part soon

Hey, by the way theres a secret voice line at the end of this fight where the voice says she was sent here to PROTECT us, and that it was another one of "his cryptic warnings" referring to the next boss

Please tell me you're gonna continue this series? I'm REALLY interested in The Scale and your videos are great for learning more stuff about the characters! :D

Just played furi for the first time and really enjoying this series, can't wait to see the rest of it, thank you for awesome content!

Just as The Line was the hardest character for the devs to write, it is proving to be the hardest one to arrange commentary for, and for the same reason: it "contains" the spatial and temporal edges of the game and yet occurs in its midst.

You revealed to me how much more tragic that fight was from everything I had picked up on it previously. I am not disappointed in the least of your level of insight on the experience of this game/story. Thank you.

PLEASE finish the re telling of the whole story and re assure me I'm not crazy for the level of appreciation I have for the 5 dimensional depth of human growth the game touches up on from Buddhism, all things exists within, to every fight and character being equally relevant if they were all just figments of this characters imagination of who he is, was or could have become with each conquest representing a layer of hell or rather a resolve one must convict in order to become a master of the self and come into understanding the true value of humanity or the human spirit..... I digress. You're doing awesome at this please see it through. I'll wait.

well time to wait another 3 months

If i may add an another layer upon symbolism. After you described how her cell is symbolic for egg and stuf we need to remember that she is a prisoner here, forced by outer will in her position. And this will like this cage is not natural but a man made. She is forced to be a part of this. Forced to play a role of mother, mate, and a jailer. Like society a lot of time forces women into specific roles. Aditionally we see that she is mad NOW after torture but we dont have any proof that she was mad before. We told that she was mad before. This is intresting also since not so long ago every societal deviation made by women were considered a moments of madness Hysteria. So i propose another theory she was sane. Maybe she did something that was loked down by her society and was declared a mad. And then forced to be who she is.

I thought about this some more in the shower (as things tend to go) and I can't believe I didn't see this before... a woman's womb is metaphorically a cage. The mere fact that only woman can incubate a child restricts the actions she can take in the world. She is bound. If she tries to escape it, she suffers, one way or another, and the only true escape is death. Thanks again. I love this game.

@@ElBromoHojo tbh i didn't mean exactly that. Women didnt restricted in what they can do naturally. Act of pregnancy and birth can be a limiting factor but not as much as people think. I speak about societal norms. They are the biggest bonds. Enforcing specific roles on women. But like straps Prison this roles only look natural, but in fact they are artificial. And any atempt to break this artificial rules seen as madness or hysteria.

I do wish I'd mentioned it, though. He says "grandpa" derisively to say "but don't believe that nonsense, either about her or when you meet him later." All the nuggets he gives us about her come when it's too late to have done otherwise.
