: Hmm, well there are two things here... one is that the doom Durandal predicts
: is not that Hathor will betray you, but that her vengeance will never,
: ever be satisfied, and she'll just keep sending you to kill humanity over
: and over, and eventually you'll just go "wtf?" and quit, at
: which point she'll just go away since she can't do anything to you and
: can't do anything without you. So that timeline would be very
: uninteresting after a while and only end when the player got bored and
: refused to play anymore.
Right...but what if you could do something to her? All this while she's confident that you need her just as much as she needs you; she's thinks she's aware that you only have a peripheral knowledge of your junction, but doesn't know that you know more about it than she thinks; and the reason why I think that would be feasible is because...
: The other thing is that in my interpretation of Infinity, you weren't using
: your junction yourself; it was Thoth sending you back every time.
...I kinda bought into Grasshopper/Mark Levin/Steve Levinson's idea that you yourself are using your own cybernetic junction to jump around in time and between timelines. It just sounds nice because for once, it's you who is truly in charge (and the real kicker is that all the while other people assume they're leading you around when you're just manipulating them).
:[SPOILER WARNING] during
: the dream between Ch4 and Ch5, your jump is merely redirected by Durandal
: to somewhere other than where Leela was trying to send you. (Oddly this is
: familiar to you, as if from an old dream...). Hathor just assumed you
: jumped on your own since nobody accompanied you there. [/SPOILER]
Ooh, I can't wait (right I'm kinda stuck on Eat S'pht and Die).
