fandom so small i don't think anyone's in it

[wroef]

Every game I have platinumed (10/?) What Remains of Edith Finch (2017) “If we lived forever, maybe we’d have time to understand things. But as it is, I think the best we can do is try to open our eyes and appreciate how strange and brief all of this is.”

WHAT REMAINS OF EDITH FINCH

[wroef]

Give me a job at the fish canning factory. My maladaptive daydreaming wont cause any issues. You can trust me around the fish guillotine I prommy

[wroef]

Would I sell my soul for a corn chip, just so I could experience this game again for the first time? I mean yeah??

Random things I noticed while playing What Remains Of Edith Finch

There was a poster of the cannery that Lewis worked at on the boat.

2. Edith Jr wears what appears to be an engagement on a necklace. Whether this is her ring or her mothers is not mentioned.

3. At the start of the game, Milton's missing posters are EVERYWHERE. There is even a giant pile of them in a nearby lake.

4. The dragon slide that crushed and killed Sven is still outside.

5. As you walk toward the house, the music gets louder.

6. The swing that Calvin flew off decades ago is still looped around the branch.

7. There was a spare peep hole in the garage that didn't have any names or dates on it.

8. At multiple points throughout the game you can hear a train in the background, despite the fact that the train tracks are clearly destroyed.

9. There are multiple pots throughout the Finch house that looks like they have eyes.

10. One of the books the Finches possessed was 'King in Yellow', a book known for making anyone who read it insane.

11. The house sounds alive, or like there are people constantly moving around it.

12. Walters bedroom is painted with both ocean and train designs. One of the paintings is the old house that Odin tried to bring to America.

13. There are drag marks on the ground of Walters bedroom (most likely made when his drawers were taken out of his room.)

14. The entrance to the tunnels is hidden by a book called 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, a classic sci-fi story about a sea monster.

15. Molly's room is filled entirely with animal books.

16. There is a jelly fish on Molly's bed (possible connection to the monster??).

17. Molly has a chalkboard in her bedroom where she is a princess in an underwater castle and Sven is about to get attacked by a sea monster (slightly resembling the dragon slide).

18. As shark!Molly starts falling down the cliff, she passes a road where headlights are briefly scene.

19. When the monster gets back to Molly's room, the window that cat!Molly jumped through is still open.

20. There are still Christmas decorations in Molly's room.

21. The curse is 500 years old. That is a lot of dead people.

22. In Odin's viewfinder, it states "His [Odin's] daughter, Edie, is already dreaming of new Finch house" showing that even though her own father died not even a week ago, Edie has already moved on.

23. The house is filled head to toe with books about death, including two that Odin wrote.

24. Sven's shrine does not have a log painting like the rest of the family. His portrait is painted on a simple canvas.

25. Edie has a number of strange tapes in her room including one titled "conspiracy now".

26. The toys from Gregory's final bath are still in the bathroom.

27. There is an old bottle of alcohol in the bathroom bin.

28. A lot of Sam's photos are based on Calvin (a swing, astronauts).

29. All of Milton's drawings are based on the death. (Molly = cat, Barbara = pumpkin)

30. There are cigarettes and gin on Sam's side of the room he shared with Calvin.

31. Calvin already had bruises, Band-Aids and a cast on his leg when he died.

32. Sam blames himself for challenging Calvin.

36. There are totem-esc styles statues of both Calvin and Molly

37. Barbara's outfit is over the railing.

This is the same way the Hook-Man falls

38. "Performance of her life" can also mean that it is the performance she is known for.

39. There are spare portrait logs in the basement.

40. There is a fake window in the basement.

41. Edie's grave is finished despite her dying and then nobody else going to the house.

44. There are times wear it seems like you can hear sobbing (this one may just be me).

45. There is a box of Kay's old stuff in Sam's bedroom.

46. Odin has a park named after him.

47. This isn't a fact but I think this may be one of the funniest photos of the game (LIKE SIR? YOUR DAUGHTER IS SOBBING!).

48. Both Calvin and Dawn are on Sam's shrine.

49. Gus has a skateboard over his name.

50. Gregory has the soap bottle from his final bath in his shrine.

51. The music cuts out when Gregory isn't moving.

A lot of this isn't going to make sense to you, and I'm sorry about that. I'm just going to start at the beginning, with the house... What Remains of Edith Finch (2017), dev. Giant Sparrow

What Remains of Edith Finch | The Finch House

[wroef]

the impact of what remains of edith finch to get so many video essays abt it is astonishing. and its all the mostly the same conclusion. i will also be watching every single one of them

[wroef]

Do Some of the Finches (Specifically Edie and Her Kids) Have An Alcohol Problem?

I'm starting to think that some of the Finches had some sort of alcohol issues/problems, let me show you why

Like Edie has a whole bottle of wine/whisky in her bathroom trashcan. And more wine/whisky downstairs. We also know that she mixed alcohol with her meds the night she died (most likely on purpose)

Bottles and cans of whisky in the passageway way to Calvin and Sam's room.

And in the room too.

More on Sam's side (probably drank a bit as a teen to cope with sharing a room with his dead twin)

But then I found this-

I can't tell if Calvin had this robot toy hold rootbeer or if this is straight up beer but I can clearly see that it says beer on the can (really hope it's rootbeer)

Just realized how easy it is for these kids to access wine because of the passageway like what kinda parent does this!? Oh, Edie does-

I'm genuinely concerned for Barb, this is definitely alcohol (like what 16 year old hides six cans of rootbeer under their bed?) Also, these seem to be the same type of cans that the robot in Calvin's side of the room was holding. So, Cal was stealing(when they were empty)/maybe drinking these???

Also, I think her drinking might stem from how she dealt with her feelings from being a child star with fame to no longer being famous (as Old Jack says 'washed up'.)

But to conclude I think they used this as a way to cope (multiple reasons, death, feeling washed up, other emotions, etc)

[wroef]

i think the fact dawn’s kids all came out with blue eyes (judging from edith & lewis’s models, and milton’s missing papers literally state his eye color as blue) is insane

you’re telling me not one of those fuckers got brown eyes? or just a different color of eyes? 😭
