Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 1

[Kman]

I've said it before, but I think it's a bit more metaphorical. Not saying the machine isn't a literal machine, but that there's more to it. Just my 2 cents.

Completely agree, in my opinion I think that there will actually be a machine and it will actually be used to kill pigs, but the actual phrase "This world is a machine. A machine fit only for the slaguhtering of pigs." is more symbolic. The way I think of it, the phrase isn't really too connected with the actual machine, but they used the machine as a metaphor to relate to the theme of the game while still having it kind of related to the main focus of the game (being the machine). Hope that made some sense XD
