In defense of (ending spoilers)

I fully support Maelle's ending, and I have personal experiences to back it up.

Maelle/Alicia is mute, severely burned, missing an eye, suffering from severe emotional trauma, and possibly in somatic pain as well. Her brother is dead. And beyond that, erasing the painting means everything and everyone else she grew to care about will have also died. Yes, she can move on to the real world, but honestly, to what. The somatic pain and issues she deals with in the real world would also be immense.

Speaking from personal experience, losing an eye and the ability to speak alone are terrible. There are more issues with losing an eye than you'd think, and not having the ability to consistently speak is horrible, and I can personally attest to that. Chronic pain can also be torturous, which I and may others know for a fact. And she has to deal with the emotional regards as well.

It's a choice between an arduous life of suffering plus extra loss from the painting, or a life without the bad and with the good.

If she can have time in the painting for her life — which may even be 100+ years — then honestly, it's worth it in my eyes. Yes, it would be very painful for Verso to have to see Maelle slowly die, but it's better than the alternative. Dealing with grief is hard enough on its own, but dealing with *everything* can be impossible, or at the very least, extremely painful for your entire life.

tl;dr
>Yes, she can move on to the real world, but honestly, to what.
I get this, but the sad reality is that the world is bigger than Maelle. Simple as.

I wish I could be there to save her, burned and mute and all, and surely somebody would. But even if not her suffering is small compared to the suffering of everyone else her false reality affects. Sometimes life just sucks fucking dick, and the lesson is that true goodness for the world is just rolling with the punches.

My bad, I was kinda unclear. I'm absolutely not doubting that they're sentient. I was talking about Alicia's ending where she has supposedly brought them back.

>>729857612
It actually makes complete sense that Maelle is the only one who can come back because she’s literally a painter, and the very cutscene they should’ve ended the game on makes it clear that Aline painted over Alicia to make Maelle. Renoir gommages Aline’s creations, i.e Maelle. But Alicia is not Aline’s painted creation, she’s real. It’s basically like Maelle is the texture and Alicia is the model.

The thing that makes absolutely no sense however is Renoir gommaging all of Aline’s creations, except Verso, who is purely an Aline creation. Maybe you can hand wave this with the invincibility excuse, but no, Renoir starts gommaging Verso when Alicia is being told to fuck off and go home. Then she has just enough power to save Verso, fully restore Lune and Sciel, but not Gustave for some reason, then the zombie army of 33’s, and Renoir paints a 32nd expedition?

It’s genuinely stupid as fuck. Act 3 makes no sense when you really examine it and just makes the game worse. Should’ve ended the game on the scene with Maelle being born. It wraps everything up perfectly.

It's usually not that simple, since Lovecraft definitely did describe things, but one thing is very simple. One of the most important aspects of cosmic horror is the indifference of the universe, and you can't have a boss fight against something that is so beyond your experience that it doesn't even have the capacity of considering your puny mind sentient. You would be harmless microbes to them at best.
