(spoilers) There was only one thing that wasnt explained

[76561198055230408]

In the story is the 6 hours timeframe before the "judgment".
The moment Swansea tries to open the cockpit door (this details is important) and jimmy has to tie and block the door with ultimately swansea breaking the window...
It doesnt match in the timeframe with whats hapenning in the other 6 hours before judgment part where jimmy go get the pistol in the nursery and swansea rush him in the nursery when jimmy got the pistol

Any ideas ?

Jimmy cant be in the nursery with the gun in front of swansea and then in the cockpit there is a timeline issues there

Him being rushed happened first, in med. The rope wasn't to tie back the door. The pole was originally to block the door, but instead implied it was used to beat him back/knock him down. The rope was then used to tie up Swansea. THEN the chair scene happened when he woke up. The events happened so fast they were both close enough to 6 hours from the end.

the thing i dont get is how he can move from med to cockpit place (which are the highest distance from each other in the ship) while swansea rush him in a tight hallway in front of the med place ?

And with jimmy having a gun in hand at the moment ? I mean the only scenario i can think of where he would escape is maybe jimmy shooting and injuring swansea with a non lethal shot ? Swansea backing up as a consequence then it would be a cat and mouse fight until the cockpit scene ? (would match with the mini game phase where we have to shot swansea multiple time in a feverish nightmare)

But in this case it wouldnt make much sense from swansea to force open a door by smashing the window when you know your oponnent has a gun..

In this situation it would make more sense jimmy chasing swansea than the other way around

any ideas ?

The time in the cockpit is an illusion of Jimmy justifying why he kills him. With how unreliable Jimmy's mind is for all we know he got the gun and took him hostage.

That's probably what makes the most sense, thanks for the feedback

I didn't even think of that oh my god. We really don't know how unreliable of a narrator Jimmy is. I thought maybe he managed to escape Swansea in the medbay, then ran to the cockpit, boarding himself up in there, before Swansea and him duked it out, Jimmy knocking Swansea out and dragging him to the Utilities room where he executed him.

There's so much room for interpretation it's insane, I love this game so much, I just finished playing it for myself.

I don't really like the "This scene wasn't real" for this. Like other psychological horror games, this game is usually fairly clear when you're in a 'dream sequence' that cannot be taken literally.
The cockpit scene was way too grounded for me to classify it under the other hallucination scenes. You use the rope which was established as being in the cockpit since the beginning - it's a chekov's gun. if it was a dream scene it would be something like the locker is now Curly's body and you pull his guts out to tie the door shut, yknow?
