But she doesn't have the heart to do that so killing Colt feels to her the more "humane" option because she can't reason with Colt anymore.
She wakes up every morning before Colt and she could go to the beach and shoot him, or tie him up, make it so he can't actually do anything. And that it started as self defense, but she learned to like it and turn it into a game because she had no other choice. And the worst part is that when Colt started to try to break the loop, the other visionaries don't remember Colt killing them, but Julianna does. After all, it was originally Colt who didn't communicate, instead started to kill her. I think at its core, this whole game is about a story of a misguided and naive young girl that needs to be rescued by her father, but her father must make very difficult choices to save her from never growing up, but by making her face reality, it will crush her and put a strain on their relationship - something I'd bet is worthwhile to Colt knowing that he is doing what he believes is right for his daughter.īut her preference to stay in the loop and keep killing her father instead of trying to communicate and come to terms with their differences shows her naivety. Julianna hints at the outside world not doing so well, but her preference to stay in the loop and keep killing her father instead of trying to communicate and come to terms with their differences shows her naivety. Colt's desire to break the loop appears to be perfectly reasonable because it's like you're not actually living a real life if the same day always repeats itself. She's upset that you tried to kill her to try to break the loop before and is stuck on that in her head. I think the final point that really makes it clear that you should break the loop is how the exposition behind Julianna's story played out. I would also add that is highly likely that the "ending" where you don't break the loop actually is something that could occur in canon, while the actual broken loop ending would also be an event that came later. Other Colts call him a leaver, tell him that he's not meant to break the loop and should just look out for himself, and stuff like that, but your player Colt now sees these other Colts as examples of what he used to be, and not what he wants to be. įurther, there are several encounters with other Colts that seem to represent his old self and these encounters highlight pivotal moments of character growth in which your Colt decides to go against his old ways and shows that he truly cares for the greater good of everyone. I also thought it was a major pivotal point in the story when Colt acknowledges after a call with Julianna regarding her wanting to stay in the loop, that he needs to save her. Break the Loop) and floating text is telling Colt to break it the entire game. I think that the true canon ending is to break the loop because that's the name of the game mode (i.e. Her life as she knows it is already over, and from how everything looks it'd be impossible to move on so what good would it serve her to kill Colt proper?įeel bad for Pick and the morning Updaam jumper tho lmao
That's why Julianna hesitates to kill Colt in this ending. She hints at this reality too, when she says that Blackreef is still going to be here when humanity destroys itself. That's why she was so headstrong in protecting the loop and killing Colt over and over again. The world outside Blackreef moved forward, seemingly for the worse, while Blackreef has been stuck on the same day for more than a century now as implied by Julianna when Colt asks how she's able to remember everything.Īs for Julianna's hesitation, perhaps Julianna knew that the world outside Blackreef's loop would be as it is in the bad ending. The dried-up sea, the red sky, Julianna's hesitation to kill Colt. Bad ending for sure, but a real eye-opener as well. With that in mind, I like the ending where you kill Julianna. There's a lot of truth in what Julianna has to say about Colt wanting to break the loop. But he doesn't really think about what's going to happen after he breaks the loop.
#Deathloop ending free#
Midway through the game, it's established that Colt has a noble motive in his mind to free all the eternalists who think that it's still the first day. Piggybacking off this, I think Colt's more naive than psychotic.
