Epilogue question (spoilers)

So I read both epilogues, and I feel a need to ask, is either one the "right" one? A lot of the other choose-your-own-adventure style bits in this series still eventually lead to one specific outcome. It wouldn't bother me, except that the implications behind each changes what actually happened in Ending Number Four. One implies that Jack lied in his blog, so the actual sequence of events before the decision has to be different between the different endings.

Am I misunderstanding something? Am I just a nitpciking ass hole for being bothered by this?

You're not nitpicking at all! It's totally valid to be bothered by how the different epilogues affect the overall story. The different outcomes can make it feel like there’s no clear "truth," which can be frustrating if you’re looking for one definitive version of events. It's just the nature of choose-your-own-adventure stories, but your reaction makes sense! Also, to start playing online gaming, download fire kirin app on your Android.

.What it feels like, to me anyway, it that both endings are true. They both connect in a way. I’m glad to see Lucy might be taking a bigger part in book 4? (waiting for audiobook of 3 so idk what happens in there) But Benjamin is “working” at the gas station? I’m sure he’s just killing anything weird that come in... I guess I want both to be true, for Jack to feel like there’s someone else who can understand him. I want Claire and Loren to be ok. Maybe they can help with the bad thing that’s coming.

I loved it. I have a feeling that it's possible solving the final riddle(s) could give us the "true" ending to the story - but even if that's not the case it was still so much fun to see the different routes you wrote and get to play the game (I smirk as I write those last few words.) Thank you for putting so much time and effort into all of this, Jack. It was a hell of a ride, and I can't wait to see more.

@Zero132132 thank you for handling this as courteously as you have. I have a book hangover from this, and I’m just now realizing I haven’t gotten as far as I should before checking out this post. That combined with being one of the people waiting for book 3 to come out in audio format (any day now, aaaany day now) I just wanted to express how sincerely I appreciate how you’ve handled this. I will excitedly return to read the rest of this later, once I’m more caught up.

Thank you, thank you! <3

I’m waiting for the audio book too! I started the whole adventure listening to Mr Creepypasta narrate and I’d love to continue that ^_^

@Jessiizar Yaayyyyy, go team!! :D

I discovered that if I read a story and then try to listen to it, it feels off (same as reading the book version of something and then trying to watch the movie), whereas if I listen to it first I can go back and forth. I relisten to the first two books way too much to chance ruining the 3rd audiobook for myself.

You are absolutely entitled to be bothered. This story was a huge departure from my normal storytelling. It was an experiment of sorts.

Neither ending is necessarily "right" or "wrong."

I intended to leave it up to the reader. Whichever you prefer.

If you want, both can be correct. Or if you didn't care for them, neither.

Whatever you decide, thank you for playing.

It was a successful storytelling experience, at least for me, so don't get the wrong idea and think I didn't enjoy the hell out of this. I did, it was awesome, and I'm really glad that it was something fun to sink some time into.

It bugs me in video games when a decision I make apparently changes shit that happened in the past of that game world once I've seen both outcomes. That's kind of how this left me feeling. Whether Jack reached for the gun or for Jerry/Doppeljerry (never was quite clear on that one) apparently changes stuff from before that decision was made. It wouldn't be any sort of a problem if I'd only read it once and I didn't have that particular hang-up.

While at some parts it was rushed I feel it was a good experiment. Would have worked more for finding Vanessa. However it was good. The "true" ending is they do get out. Either way Jack is shown to be incapable of being synchronized with due to him being a psychopathic human. Not only that. All the endings lead to the same point. Jack breaking free however only one leads to him leaving. Jerry and him walk out.

They give up as it's not worth it. They will instead recreate the manor of sorts and try to get other humans who pass by. They control to an extent the vehicles. So they could have stopped messing with Jack's shit Nissan and have let them go. Of course it'll still have the doubt in their head however it's the only ending where Jack doesn't actively question it. Only Jerry. Leaving me to believe that is the ending (not including puzzles that I just don't have time to figure out)
