Expanding what TaCTiCaLxReFLeX said:
Red has basically been in the mine since he was 14 I think and has been trapped in there since, so about 20 years I think. As you get near the end, you find Red inside an incinerator as he wants to kill himself. He has been suffering from cabin fever which is when you are in a small place for so long you go paranoid and you sorta go insane. (look up Wiki for more details.)
So after you kill him, you get a key and find more about him, like a few notes, some books, a noose (suggesting he tired to kill himself) and you escape to "The Shelter." There you walk down some stairs, enter this hallway and see this black figure at the end (The Infected from Black Plague) as you walk to it, the lights go out and you eventually get knocked out and the game ends...leading onto Black Plague.
Just started it and it's very scary. If you have any more questions, let us know. Also check out my channel bellow and look at the last 2 or 3 videos of overture for the ending

I also started Black Plague too I guess I am just inside of the mines still :/. When you find the notes about a scientist who eats spiders and worries about the effects would that be Red?
RE: Overture ending? - BrooksyFC - 02-15-2012
I'm not too sure to be honest. I've only just got out of the first area and at some flashback part back on the boat. I don't think that was red who ate spiders. That was someone else cause in Overture, you found the guys tongue all infected and he also got dragged away and probably killed, if that's the guy you are on about?
RE: Overture ending? - dph314 - 02-15-2012
Yeah I can't remember but there's a note with Thomas Redwood in it I believe. Last playthrough was a little bit ago, but I'm almost positive Thomas Redwood was mentioned in a note. Don't think he was a scientist.
RE: Overture ending? - darkely - 02-15-2012
Well I remember reading the about the scientist when you find the room where there is a underground entrance or something.
@BrooksyFC The guy with the tongue :/ might be him but idk for sure. I was wondering how the hell did he get down there when he was 14 - an how is he alive? - like I said in my first post I wiped Window 7 so I need to get steam and re-download the games. It would help if steam had cloud storage like the Xbox does.
RE: Overture ending? - BrooksyFC - 02-15-2012
Yeah near the start of the game, you enter the mine and it's one of the first rooms you went. When you go into this cave and you heard this guy screaming being dragged away, there is a note (I think) and a huge tongue on the table. That's the guy who eats spiders

I think Red went down with his parents and other scientist e.t.c and got trapped down there, from what I remember. Not sure what he ate e.t.c

Overture is good, Black Plague is better. Enjoy
