The point is, it's not "victory" in the traditional sense, it's simply "the end". An alternative that would be less misleading to the player would be if after the first time through, there were a different opening scene where mal says something about his tormented existance, and the scenario objectives were changed to 20160714 10:45:08< DeFender1031> just say "end the pain". That would retain the power of "the only way out of the darkness is to let it end" without confusing the user with "how many times do I have to do this before it's over?" 20160714 10:45:29< DeFender1031> oh, he's not here anymore. I wonder if he reads the logs... 20160714 10:48:49< zookeeper> yeah the presentation is definitely far from ideal currently, but i think the basic idea is good. 20160714 10:50:38-!- Kwandulin [~Miranda@p200300760F2D81DB64D768219022C061.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds] 20160714 11:01:14-!- ideuler [~textual@0.213.62.94.rev.vodafone.pt] has quit [Quit: My Mac has gone to sleep.
