The guardian was such a bad idea.

[[GRVTS]Fat Bastard]

I just feel so turned off whenever they try to tell me what to do. "Stay away from the gith" then I'm just torn. Do I listen or ignore it? Even if I ignore it now I got the thought constantly eating away at me for the whole game, and It's so frustrating.

Let me think for myself! I don't need some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ omniscient weirdo trying to give me advice! I've also grown to hate the narrator to be honest. Just let me play the game without all this extra crap detracting from my experience and influencing my choices.

You are supposed to be experiencing this. You have the choice as to whether to let the guardian influence your or not and it's part of the story.

The problem is I don't want it to. I want to experience the game myself without that stupid annoying voice telling me I'm wrong. Is that too much to ask for? I don't care for the intended design because the intended design is crap.

so in EA the "Guardian" was referred to as your lover. Which inherently made me want to trust this guardian...also it's named the "guardian" so I'm inclined to trust it. However it's telling me to do something that I find unwise. This leads me to two theories (it's only speculation not a spoiler i've not even gone into act 2 yet) 1 is these are thought forms on the astral plane that are trying to create powerful mindflayers of their own to fight for their cause or 2 these are actually mindflayers appearing as something you find most beautiful in order to manipulate you into becoming their champions.

Don't care what they are. I just don't wanna hear there voice ever outside of dream cutscenes.

Thats your take ;) I really enjoy the guardian stuff. They try to lure you into useing the tadpole power... and maybe their are right? maybe you NEED this powers in the end for something important? or maybe its a trap? I will learn it later down the line. While they still save me and my group from turning into tentacle monsters and lure us like a harpy with their songs of "use the power"... its like the one ring! :D

Of course it is a trap.

Possibly. I have three different ongoing playthroughs currently and two of them are multiplayer with some friends. If there is one thing I've learned it's that I need to be the guardian for my friends. We walked 10 meters and they got lost.

Dude you got a critter in your head. Everyone is trying to tell you what to do.

Imagine some strange guy appears in your dream and says - "Hello, you have a tadpol? Here is 100 more, strengthen it for me!", Really? I would want to get rid it af fast af i can.

"You don't like this one aspect of this otherwise great game? GO PLAY SOMETHING ELSE!" How about no? The stupid guardian isn't the only story element in the entire game, and it not talking in my ear while considering my options isn't going to destroy the plot.

I like the gaurdian.
Unlike the seducer this one accauly makes compelling arguements why i shoud lissen.
The seducer i just ignored.

I swear some people just look for stuff to complain about.
