In Response To: Re: What about... (Godot)

: Durandal's comment " Good-byes were always hard for me. You know I'll
: never let you go. " is on Fatum Iustum Stultorum and relates to him
: letting Blake and the rest of the humans go back to Sol. And of course
: infers that he would never let us go.

: The final terminal is more ambigious. Durandal says " You can stay
: behind to work on your tan, if you'd like, but I'm leaving. "
: suggesting that the SO has choice.

: The reference to " We will meet it in one of the great voids between the
: spiral arms. " can simply be interpreted as Durandal and the S'pht.

: I can see how the writer of the Infinity manual perhaps not totally familiar
: with the details of the M2 story could read the final terminal and assume
: we had delivered ourself from our " service " to Durandal since
: he was giving us a choice... stay (die) or go.

: Of course there is no choice.

: Cheers
: Hamish

Neither I nor anyone else I've known who's played the game have ever interpreted that line as anything other than really obvious sarcasm.
