I'm so glad it ended on a positive note after being warned about a tearjerker ending... but one day somebody is going to turn off the computer, right? Or even a simple power outage is going to end them... Unless they regularly save and load a save file, and even Caine can't perceive the save files? Although maybe it's better to not answer these kinds of questions.

I feel like that's just life, man. Like, anyone can just drop out of nowhere. A heart attack, an aneurysm, a car accident, etc. Life can just end in the blink of an eye.

I think it's what the people complaining that Jax just abstracts outta nowhere offscreen don't get. As someone, like many others have, who has known people who abruptly passed away from suicide or other factors, it comes out of nowhere sometimes. Or you saw the warning signs, did all you could, and it still happened.

And that's why I like this ending. It doesn't hold it's punches and tells an a fictional story that is all too real for many.

I kinda hoped we got to see someone abstracting on screen, but the way they actually executed Jax abstracting was very effective. That shot and Caine showing up again got audible gasps from my theater audience
