I think the shadow was a living sentient entity. So maybe it honestly believed Daniel redeemed his transgression in taking the orb.

It's a mystery.

....... wat? :|

Kyorisu + Elsius: I feel like it has to be sentient as well, but I also think that it was for some reason predisposed to not killing Daniel. I mean, back in the day before he even reached Brennenburg, it was killing everyone around him but not Daniel himself.

Harry - Huzzah! So I'm not crazy! It makes me wonder if there are other bits scattered throughout the game to allude to the parallels I saw. I'm going to have to replay it later. Big Grin

Also, not a big deal, but you were wrong on one count. I'm a she. Blush

Apologies Blush

God, i love post-modern gamesSmile
Great find. I felt the letters meant something. Numbers might mean something too. Odin 3,14? Pi?

wow, that's really cool CP. those names (odin, tyr and loke) also popped up in my head when i saw the 3 codes. i would've never thought they actually had a background to it. if this is intentional from frictional games (the endings/codes), i do have to say...props to you frictional!

RE: Hidden Meanings in Amnesia? (SPOILERS) - Sajber - 09-12-2010

For you guys that want to use the codes, check this thread (SPOILER)

Nils - At first I thought I might have been imagining it, but with Harry's help with the sigil on the loading screen here:

Uranus comes from Ouranos, which was a greek god, literally the Father Sky (So linked to Odin as the "All Father")

Mars is of course the god of War so obvious link to Tyr.

Mercury comes from the Greek god Hermes, who was a patron of tricksters and described as a thief, shapeshifter and more (so linked to Loki).

The conspiracy continues!

I think it's pretty clear that it was intentional. Big Grin

HamStar - You're on to something, I feel. In addition to 3.14 being pi, 2.71 I recognized as e. I hadn't seen that before! Nice! 299 doesn't ring any bells. I'll go dig up a list of mathematical constants.

EDIT: I updated the first post. It's only spoileritized to keep it from being completely massive. Thanks, guy. Smile

EDITEDIT: REVELATION! Think science, not math. 2.99 x 10^something m/s is the speed of light, I'm pretty sure. Helpful? D:

So I just came back to visit this..... and it seems like most of the first post is mysteriously gone, not by my hand. Did the forums devour it when I caught on to Amnesia's little secret? D:

I'll fix it later. I'm too tired right now. -_-
