Most games explain themselves well and tie up any loose ends in time for the closing credits. Some games, however, leave us with lingering, unresolved mysteries that have us staring at the bedroom ceiling at 3AM. Here are seven that are still out here ruining our circadian rhythm. Enjoy, and subscribe for a video like this every Thursday from Outside Xbox!

You actually find and talk to a living Dwemer in Morrowind during the story missions, but he was exiled and doesn't know what happened to the others either 🤷‍♂️

Perhaps if Silent Hill is a reflection of one’s mind, then to a healthy and good person Silent Hill is a pretty nice place.

When people talk about the Mysterious Stranger they never mention his female counterpart, Miss Fortune, who appears in New Vegas. She appears in VATS like he does but instead of using a powerful weapon to finish enemies off she causes accidents, as her name implies, to turn the tide in your favor.

I was absolutely convinced that Ethan's Psychiatrist MUST be the origami killer all the way through that game. Makes much more sense than the actual ending. I was sure he was planting subliminal messages during his session that made him black out and wake up near the murders. I had it all worked out. I was raging when I turned out to be wrong :(

The one that still really bugs me is: Why won't that Sonic guy share his hedge!

Things I learned about Luke today: He understands the difficulties of appearing guilty to the law because of "plotholes". He's open the idea of skinning people. He believes NONE of a killed animal should be wasted. Should Ellen be worried?

Female armor in many RPGs: Why do the best ones tend to show the most skin, being more like metal bras? Do enemies only aim for the metal part now?

When you have Nick with you and the Mysterious Stranger is proced, Nick has dialogue where he tries to stop the Stranger before he vanishes in thin air. This means that he's a physical entity that follows people who are lucky and helps them in their time of need

People don't know to ignore inconsistencies in Heavy Rain? The game that actually lies to you and itself to preserve it's "mystery"?

With David cage games the answer to any mysteries is usually "bad writing"

James Sunderland hiding from monsters and hastily re-reading Mary's letter: "Our special place.. SALIENT Hill!? dammit I'm in the wrong town"

@sonuckles1 Жыл бұрын

With Silent Hill I thought they made it at least somewhat clear that the town looks different to different people. There's a good chance the town concurrently has people living there who aren't aware of all the weird extra-dimensional stuff happening to James et al. I mean, just look at Laura. She's running around there pulling pranks on people. Does she seem to be aware that she's in a foggy hellscape?

The janitor in Control possibly being the most powerful being in the universe keeps me up at night.

In the Mass Effect series when you recruit Tali in ME2 she is on a mission to figure out what's happening to Haestrom's star. The mission gets almost her entire team killed and it's brought up multiple times that they think it's dying due to dark energy which could be a major problem. In ME3 it's basically never brought up again so, what was up with that star and the dark energy?

I would like to believe that the Merchant in RE4 helped to supply weapons for the island, after which Saddler had him infected with Las Plagas. The Merchant either had some resistance to the Plagas or wound up with some weakened form of the parasite, so he maintained control and decided to sell some of his stock to Leon as part of a revenge plan.

Regarding the Merchant, another big mystery about him is why he'd sell you guns but not ammo for said guns.

My favourite - and I think the most likely - theory for the disappearance of the Dwemer is this:

Silent Hill isn't a nightmare world for everyone, and Mary didn't die 3 years ago. She gave Laura a birthday card the week before James comes to SH. Mary's corpse is actually in James' car at the beginning of the game. She got sick 3 years ago, so in his delusional state, that's when James believes his wife "died." The monsters aren't physical creatures, they're manifestations of James' guilt. Living bodybags made of flesh, with someone writhing inside. When the zipper opens revealing the contents, venom spews out and injures him. They represent the repressed truth that Mary is dead, and that James suffocated her. They have female legs with heels, because of his guilt about sexualizing his dying wife. The nurses are an obvious perversion of the hospital staff, pyramid head is James' desire to punish himself, etc. The note from Mary didn't even exist. By the time James recalls the truth, the page in your inventory is completely blank.
