[SPOILER] Ending, Simon and bias

[Touchdown]

You lost me here. Honestly, I don't really see how does that invalidate my point.

The only thing you say is that Simon-2 and Simon-3 would have a similiar outrage/breakdown upon realizing they'll be left behind and that is... absolutely correct. But that does not affect the "You are Simon-3 all along" theory (or at least I don't see how).

Either way, I see some people consider the 'switches' between different versions of Simon as nothing more than a narrative device to present certain thematics. That is a valid point of view. All I'm saying is that nothing stands in the way of interpreting those 'switches' as part of a subjective experience of a single Simon.

I'm not saying this as "haha, I have discovered a hidden plot twist, be amazed!" but rather I'm just sharing this purely as an observation. I don't even consider it a twist or anything. I like to think that you are left behind at the end of the game not just because it's more dramatic but because it makes sense that Simon-3 would not leave Pathos-II. Hope that makes sense.
