You say that, but end of 0.3 and start of 0.4 say otherwise. Same with end of 0.2 and start of 0.3 I think, if you count the full Caly encounter leading to Thanny showing up and Orion activating his full powers for the first time as the full intro act sequence itself.Generally it has to be said that Cari tends to cheap out on his own cliffhangers anyway. So while I think he showed the ending of 0.7 very deliberately in such a way that it makes very clear what it should mean in that moment, as in Orion indeed dies at the end and isn't just injured and unconscious. I wouldn't put it past Cari to be like "surprise, everything was fine after all!" and the game kinda just continues with Orion wearing a band-aid during the rest of 0.8.![]()
Point is, Cari likes to troll, yes. But when it comes to a really serious "cliffhanger" like this one I don't think he'll cheap out on the resolution. Something WILL significantly change following this event, be it Orion finally showcasing his powers in the real or his consciousness escaping to Limbo/Eternum or Caly coming in clutch or the Syndicate showing their hand or Orion surviving through sheer willpower but being humbled by the experience. Doesn't matter what path is chosen, this will be a learning experience for Orion and will be a good step in his growth moving forward.
