That’s the point: The player don’t actually kill him.
No, I thought about that too. But again: The player directs Boris “to his dead”, but he doesn’t kill him. Same with Franklin: He is getting killed by someone/something but not by the player. And we can assume that Franklin and Boris are killed by the same person/thing.
I like and very much respect your thought here.
When I have a little time in the next few days, I’m gonna post my full theory/idea with screenshots and string like a crazy person. But give it another thought until I do:
We’re made to realize that the developers enslave the characters in the adventure game, controlling their every move. The developers set us up; we murder Boris accidently by booting up the game, we tell Boris to walk to the sewer, triggering the programming/AI that kills him. So the game kills him because we trigger it to because the devs set it that way.
Ugh, there’s more, there’s the dos directory on pillowtron, a tube, a text adventure, some (so far fruitless) scripting on credits.rtf and maybe I’m close to unlocking a hidden part of the game?
…Or I’m a hyperfocusing Charlie Day who can’t accept that there’s all these coinciding hints about a puzzle that’s not meant to be solved. lol
And Chuck and Dolores will be free from the evil control of the game developers by escaping into the pillowtron text adventure…
Because developers will never make a text adventure game again.
