The worst part is you've played this game before. And you know how it ends. You will die. Again. There is no other ending, no other outcome. You will die. And you don't know how, but you do know why. Because of Jack Noir, but mostly, because of yourself. Because you keep making stupid mistakes and you lean heavily on the crutch of knowing you're not going to run out of quarters. Even if the price of each quarter is something so, so very great, it's never going to be anything material to you. Because you can never protect everyone else and keep all of yourself intact, but you must. Anything short of perfection is a loss and it works for a while but they just keep coming and you're going to lose. Every time, you're going to lose.
Your name is Dave Strider, and you don't think you've ever going to stop dying.
