Hopefully the Divisive Discourse doesn't harm the future.

I just keep seeing more and more people digging themselves in around one of the endings. Some are so determined that their ending is the right one that they latch onto tons of assumptions that the other has to be wrong. There's plenty of other threads that delve deeper into it all, but I just hope that it doesn't affect the future of the world/series. And for me, since there's too many unanswered questions, I don't think I can ever choose an ending.

I just don't see how they can add anything to the story without causing one side to attack them at this point. Hopefully they made the right choice to go with the endings they went with.

Are we assuming there will be a series or more of this world? The developers has stated they aren't making any DLC and that they have started a new project instead. Not everything has to be a series or have a future.

Well, there isn't really a "right" ending.
You can't blame Maelle for her choice, but you can also understand Verso's dilemma.
People argue about the Canvas being "real", but that's a spiritual question for each individual in which you can't really force an answer onto people.

The wisest thing the people at Sandfall can do is tell a Meta story through the Arts (Paint, Ink and Music) like they did in Expedition 33 through the painters.

I guess we'll see which ending is the true one when they make the movie.

Verso's ending is clearly better since Esquie plushie makes a cameo.

Or they might just introduce the world outside the painting, and show what conflicts are going on between the Painters and Writers. Or show the period during the Fracture, or an earlier expedition.

They might, thought that would be risky.

I think it's great that people are passionate, even if they're wrong

Yeah...

But so would choosing the "right" right ending which is so divisive, it's better to let players argue over such things by themselves instead of choosing for them like many other studios do.

Honestly, expanding on this newly established franchise is the best course, imo. Expand the outside world and set yourself up for more creative freedom or don't and focus on the Painters.

I'm just a random dude, so my opinion is obsolete to them anyway, lol.
