Creating sentient life for your own amusement only to destroy it at a moment's notice doesn't make you "right", it makes you a genocidal maniac actually.

Maellefags are barely literate and immediately memoryholed that Renoir and Verso were on board with keeping the painting until Maelle lied to their faces that she'd leave during the last fight.

All she had to do was leave the painting, instead she hung on like a drug addict and forced its destruction.

He was more right than the rest but he jumped in and started a war with Aline which caused all the problems. You could also argue that he was a poor father if his family broke that hard.

>>737133520
Only because Renoir was literally trying to destroy it the entire time and pushing her to cling on even harder to a world she now knows is in a precarious state. Very likely the same thing happened with Aline, she was barely in the painting for any significant length of time before Renoir stuck his dick in her business and started the whole fight.

Genuine answer: the devs said there's no clear cut heroes or villains in E33. It's up to the players' interpretation, and most agree with Renoir and Verso, and Alicia's a delusional, selfish piece of shit with a god-complex.

That doesn't inherently mean he created life there, or that he destroyed it afterwards if he did. Those canvases could very well be kept in some attic and still be alive.

Ohh. Didn't play it yet. But I heard the OST a lot recently and was psyopped to play it by how many times the singer says "Claire Obscure". I don't think in that game the question is what's morally just to do, but how to achieve the expedition's goals.

>>737133520
>All she had to do was leave the painting, instead she hung on like a drug addict and forced its destruction

This. As Lune said: "The future of Lumiere is more important than any individual life." Expeditioners join with the intention of giving their life for the sake of the world, but when the time came for Alicia to give up her painted life as Maelle, she wouldn't do it, because she prioritizes her own illusion of happiness over anything else, even at the expense of torturing the soul of her dead brother, who gave his life for hers.
Alicia's pretty irredeemably shit.

>>737134118
>she was barely in the painting for any significant length of time
She had created an entire fucking city of thousands of people and a fake family to live with. She was obviously never going to leave.
It wasn't about the length of her stay but the clear signs of addiction. If you find your wife using drugs, do you let her keep doing them and see if she stops on her own or do you intervene?

>>737131709
This but for Painted Renoir. Fighting to save the world until the end.

The whole family is fucked up.

>>737134758
Try to avoid any spoilers, a lot of fun comes from piecing the story together.

If Aline wanted escapism why did she paint alicia with burns and destroyed vocal cords? Her journal entry says she hates looking at her because it's a grim reminder yet she still painted her

So how many people did Painted Verso bury before the game started? Could have sworn its implied he had some connections to the previous expeditions.

>>737135807
I don't think it was intentional or out of malice. If she hated her that much she could simply not paint her and live in her ideal family.
Probably something more like she subconsciously couldn't ignore the fire and needed to acknowledge it. Leaving Verso dead would defeat the purpose, so she had to paint Alicia scarred.

I don't care about the family drama of some millionaire privileged family, the game went to shit when it became about that (end of act 1)

>>737136179
How is it sad when it's the culmination of every plot thread and character arc? It necessarily forces you to evaluate and reevaluate everything you've known and learned about the world and it's characters, and how that ultimately influences your perspective on the ending, cause it affects literally everything.

Next question: why is the curator not doing shit. I know Renoir is trapped inside the monolith so does that just mean the curator is on auto pilot 99% of the time?

Anyone intelligent believes that ALL the Dessendres are selfish pieces of shit, bar perhaps the real Verso who we never meet. It's also not a god "complex" when you are essentially an actual god with the ability to create entire worlds and sentient life to inhabit them. They ARE gods and the fact that the game promotes their interpersonal drama as the only thing that really matters is where the story lost me. I hated all of them by the end and just wanted a happy ending for Lune, Sciel and the rest of the canvas people suffering under their tyranny.

>>737136708
Yea but I don't understand what the curator is doing in the meantime, is he semi conscious? Is renoir able to control him somewhat? You can see him get triggered at the mention of axons and then he makes the barrier breaker but if he wanted them to reach the monolith he could have helped them a lot more

>>737132261
He did. Or did you miss the points where he did. Did you also miss the points where he clearly references trying to keep Aline away from the painting multiple times and trying to work with her, but every time she goes back in until this last time where he just decided, "Fuck it, the painting has to go."?

Jesus, it's like Maellefags just conveniently forget every interaction in the game that does not conform to their, "Alicia was a good girl who dindu nuffin wrong!"

They brought it on themselves by not being able to handle their trauma properly and made it an entire civilization of people's problem against their will. Sciel experienced just as much, if not more grief and trauma than the Dessandres, but she learned how to deal with her grief in a healthy and productive way. What gives the Dessandres the right to ruin the lives of everyone around them for the sake of their trauma?

>>737136884

No it doesn't. That's what Maelle's ending is for.

If the citizens of lumiere were still alive the ending choice would still be the same, Renoir wants to destroy the canvas and Maelle doesnt. Verso would still jump in after seeing Aline.

>>737137861
>No evidence
He says she'll always try to return to the painting, not that she ALREADY has tried returning. There is never any mention of Renoir trying to keep Aline away from the painting multiple times, we only know Aline jumped in the first time and never came out and Renoir immediately tried to force her out.

>>737137861
Please, post them. Renoir saying "she will always find it" isn't evidence. Dude could have locked the canvas up or whisked it away somewhere in the city or at a friends place/storage

This is the funniest part of the whole thing to me.
>Maelle hides the painting and super duper swears that Aline won't find it and begs Renoir not to obliterate the canvas.

And she'd still find it. They have magic powers. If that was at all an option, Renoir would take it since he doesn't want to destroy it.

I see it as a sort of unreliable/biased narrator thing. By the time you get to Act 3, the perspective shifts from the Expedition to Alicia and pVerso, for whom the painting doesn't really matter, they're too focused on their family drama to care about the lesser (in their view) painted beings.

>>737138760
>How about her finding it within minutes after Alicia hid it so well that even Clea was impressed? Is that evidence?
No. We're talking about Aline making multiple attempts to enter the painting BEFORE Renoir decided to just use force.

>And she'd still find it. They have magic powers.
Where is it stated that Aline has magic GPS tracking powers? Clea and Alicia thought about hiding the canvas. You act like every action Renoir took was the most optimal decision he could've made.

>>737131709
he is right but as always the methods were extreme so it makes it harder to be totally on his side. genociding the painting people was too extreme, just because they are creations of people who live in a higher realm of existence does not mean their lives are disposable. Forcing Aline out would've been easy if he waited till she was weak from over exposure to the painted world, boot her out then hide the painting away somewhere safe. Given the family's obvious status hiding it away outside of the manor should've been easy, but instead he picked a fight with his grieving wife while she was at her most powerful then had to rely on a traumatized teenager to save them both, because neither could be the adults in the room.

>>737139357
>No. We're talking about Aline making multiple attempts to enter the painting BEFORE Renoir decided to just use force.
The post I was replying to was specifically more about her ability to find it, or at least that's how I read it. I'm not who he was originally arguing with.
>Where is it stated that Aline has magic GPS tracking powers?
Explicitly? Nowhere. But something like that is a reasonable assumption based on how fast she finds it and the fact that Renoir knows she'll find it and won't even try to hide it. Again, he doesn't want to destroy it. If he belived hiding it would work, he'd do that.

>>737139449
>Forcing Aline out would've been easy if he waited till she was weak from over exposure to the painted world
She's already really sick in the real world and still had 30 years left. Waiting long enough that he could overpower her could leave her with permanent damage. And it's possible that's not even how it works. The painters might not get gradually weaker in canvas as they get sick irl, meaning he might not be able to force her out.
>then hide the painting away somewhere safe
That's not an option. She'll always find it. Renoir doesn't want to destroy the canvas. If there was another option, he wouldn't.

>>737140118
That is taking renoir on his word about things he doesn't fully know either. He promises Alicia that things will get better if she comes out of the canvas but somehow that is not the case for Aline? What makes her grief different from Alicia's?

>>737139864
>something like that is a reasonable assumption based on how fast she finds it and the fact that Renoir knows she'll find it and won't even try to hide it.
Clea and Alicia try to hide it. Are they stupid?

>that's not an option
I don't see why it isn't, what would Aline do, force her way into someone else's house or a hidden vault to get to the canvas? The only places they try to hide the canvas at all is the house she lives in, of course she will find it in that case. which is why you remove it from the house for safe keeping

I'm going to assume that a man who has hundreds of years of painting experience knows more about how it works than some 4channers. If Renoir thinks Aline has some magic paint sense that can locate paintings, that's most likely true. Especially when Aline finds the well-hidden painting within minutes after Renoir said that would happen.

Maybe. Then she'd get put into an asylum for acting crazy. Renoir probably wants to avoid that considering what early 20th century asylums were like.

>>737140276

Maelle treats the people of the canvas as puppets there for her own amusement.

hid it well enough within the same house Aline was still in, sure but that doesn't make it a very good hiding spot in general, especially because she easily discovers it later.

yeah if anything Renoir's insistence on destroying the painting only motivated her to stay to defend it, though one can make the case that she only gets perspective on the situation after getting booted out by Alicia and Painted Verso.

Sure, but he still knows more than us. He has his reasons to think and do what he does. And he gets proven right in his claim that Aline will find it.

True, but that's a little too late. By then Alicia is a problem too and she was helping her stay in the canvas. Maybe she just decided to take a break so she can stay in the canvas longer afterwards. If she had really learned anything, she wouldn't help Alicia make the same mistake.

That might work to keep her our but she'd likely look for it, freak out in public and then get sent to an asylum. That's not exactly any better.

That seems to be the implication no one is talking about. Renoir basically forced the conflict on Aline and put her into a 60 year long stalemate, where Aline is constantly denied the opportunity to actually grieve, forced to watch the world that's supposed to be a safe space for her be turned into one filled with death and decay, robbing her of the one place where she can feel again.

>>737136689
post arm immediately

>>737142662
Yea one thing the game does is show that the entire family is handling grief in a bad way. One a lot more destructive than the other but I also wonder how much Clea is fucking up in their world with her war against the writers. Renoir is a typical "alright you had your time now we do X".

>>737142910
the implication in regards to Clea I was always thought that she allowed things at home to deteriorate because instead of being with her family, she isolated herself in her work.

>>737143060
She is angry and needs to direct her emotions outwards to something, if it's not the writers she would probably bully alicia or something

>>737141656
>Sure, but he still knows more than us. He has his reasons to think and do what he does.
And his reasons are clouded by his grief just like the rest of them. He says so himself that he NEEDED to fix things, he NEEDED control.

>And he gets proven right in his claim that Aline will find it.
And then proven wrong in his claim that she'll never give up the canvas.

>True, but that's a little too late. By then Alicia is a problem too and she was helping her stay in the canvas
Because Renoir was making the same mistake he made with Aline, pushing his loved ones to unhealthy extremes instead of giving them space in their time of grief. It was only too late for Renoir, as he already pushed Alicia to the extreme just like he did to Aline.

>That might work to keep her our but she'd likely look for it, freak out in public and then get sent to an asylum.
You already admitted she was capable of letting go of the canvas. She isn't some raving schizoid, even after 67 years in the painting. Literally all she likely needed was space and time, but you, and Renoir, insist, just as Renoir did to Alicia, that Aline was incapable of looking out for herself

>>737131996
>They're not real.

It's retards like you who forced the developers to come out and state that no, the people of Lumiere are absolutely real.

The whole game is just a massive play on mythologies from the Antiquity:
>A group of (not quite) immortal and (not quite) all powerful god-like entities create a world and fill it with life, then proceed to fuck it up over their own petty dramas and strifes.

What's even funnier is that Renoir is actually MORE powerful than your average Apollo or Athena.

She's angry and is in need of her father to be the leader of the family. She frames it as needing him for her mission against the writers, but within the context of her fight being how she's handling her grief, it reframes it as her needing her father to be there for her in her time of grief, just as Alicia needs her parents. Clea criticizes Renoir for trying to save someone who wasn't asking for help, the unspoken implication is that there are two other people in the family that ARE asking for help.

>>737139269
>Come to terms with their grief.
>A crippled and traumatised Alicia is standing there, alone.
>Her family members don't hug her, don't hold her, don't even look at her or acknowledge her.
>The Paris they're in is probably another Painting, as well, unless Paris suddenly became really blurry and December suddenly has 33 days.
>The last shot is of this girl, constantly in pain and misery, getting one last glimpse of the only people who gave a shit about her.

Wait until you read a little thing called The Illiad...

They are creations of the Writers, their world exists within a book, this explains why they have magic powers in their reality. Clea is fighting for the survival of her own world just as the expedition is fighting for their world. Versofags will be on suicide watch when Sandfalls next game reveals this.

Writers vs painters in the same realm but in the end the actual dev enters the game and cocklaps everyone, he then turns to directly look at the player and you can hear someone knocking on your front door

Devs debunked that, they were real people, only governed by different metaphysical laws.

The people of the canvas are morally superior to the Dessendres, from what I could see within the game, and that was sufficient for me to side with them. They can deal with grief, persevere through impossible odds, endure losses of friends and family, give up their lives for others to succeed them if necessary and still keep on going and draw strength form one another.
All that we know about the non-painted people is that until Verso died, all they were, was a bunch of nobles devoid of any real hardship, living in a castle playing god, and they lost their shit completely and irreversibly once one of their own died in a fire.

he explicitly tried to speak to his wife but she was too delusional to listen which is why he has to take drastic measures to begin with
People forget that Renoir probably would not have tried to destroy the canvas if Aline wasn't such a stupid cunt having a woman moment.
We are never truly given an outside perspective or explanation on how "real" the denizens of the canvas are, the only info we get of the outside world are glimpses and fragments so ultimately you can form your own opinion on if the painted people are real living beings or just facsimiles like NPCs in a video game, we will never truly know.

Verso's ending is moving on, Maelle's endng is embracing escapism

>>737146689
It's only escapism if you believe they are not real. You said it yourself, we are never truly given enough information to make that determination, although the developers themselves had come out and said that they are real people. This is Alicia picking her family for herself, she chose a different one. I would have chosen a different one too, the Dessendre household is completely dysfunctional, mansion or no mansion.

>make an ant farm from 1 queen to study it
>fill the farm with mercury because they piss you off one day
>think nothing of it because you gathered the info you wanted anyway
what's wrong with this?

>>737147269
Ants aren't sentient.

>>737147315
They are you illiterate retard, if only at an extremely base level. They are, however, not sapient.

>>737147568
Being pedantic won't change the nature of the error of your callous analogy.

They were paintings, cope

??? even plants are sentient, there are saplings that curled up their leaves when dropped to protect themselves that then stop doing that on repeated drops when they realize they'll survive the fall anyway.

if you mow the grass, you're a fucking monster!!!

If we could achieve a lifelike imitation of a person digitally, it would not make it 'alive'. For it to be alive would require it to have a metabolism and the ability to reproduce, providing mutations and evolution with time.
The imitation would only be 'alive' in it's digital environment, but to those who are from outside the digital reality, it would always be a digital imitation instead of a living thing. We wouldn't count as living beings if we were a simulation made by a higher dimensional being, at least to them, because they can just turn our existence on and off on a whim. Same reason why a digital 3D rock isn't a real rock.

>>737150082
Also to add, we ourselves are not really alive, but our bodies are. We're basically biological machines that operate on chemicals and chemical reactions rather than just electricity.
