Should I climb the Tower? (PLEASE NO SPOILERS)

[Hank the Cow dog]

Doing my first playthrough of the game. I really love it, Im like almost halfway through the very last world, and all these red level puzzles are really slowing me down, howver I have seen the beauty that is Elhohims creations, Ive been to a couple of the gaurdians "i think thats what there called" areas and everythings so peacefull and pretty I knew then that I should obey and trust EL Eternally.

however I have reserved distrust for EL becuase of his aloofness and mystery. It might be the tempter, but I feel as though climbing the tower will lead to some higher level of enlightenment or some more complete knowledge that Siding with EL will not give me.

Im tentivley preemptivley predicting a twist to the story. Im predciting that After siding with EL, I might get a cutscene some dialogue an explenation but ultimately the game is going to reset itself and put me back on the very first mission, as sort of a karmic rebirth, multiple existences all being me sort of thing, and that while whats at the top of the tower might be unpleasent I feel that it will impart some deeper meaning then just siding with EL.

PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME IF I AM RIGHT OR WRONG.

I SIMPLY WANT ADVICE AS TO WHETHER I SHOULD CLIMB THE TOWER FIRST TIME THROUGH

Have you not tried climbing the tower at all yet? Climbing the first levels of the tower doesn't actually have any consequences. I haven't finished the game yet, but as far as I know, the game warns you when you're climbing past the point of no return.

This really is a game where its best experienced if you make every decision with only your own guidance.

I'm sure thats not the answer you're looking for, but it really is best.

every time i see somebody appreciate elohim as a character my skin gets a little clearer, i am a year younger, the world is brighter, im so glad

but as for your question

going to go ahead and restate 420, this game is all about the individual experience

you can always go back if you're curious about a different choice

but it's your journey, your choices. i'm curious as to what you'll come to!

You can go back to a previous save after you finish an ending to experience the other endings. Do that after you finish the ending that you want to do most.

Well I just finished the game and I decided not to climb the tower
I CALLED THE HELL OUT OF THAT ENDING . I whent back did all of the tower, found it sadder yet more satisfying. There is another ending where you become a messenger by collecting alot of stars, but "f" that

The ending that you didn't choose is rewarding in its own way, mainly for completing all the puzzles; but it has its own reward thats relevant to your character. Also, while not required for the gehenna expansion having completed the blessed messenger ending will help you relate to the character.
