A piece of information that may support the clone theory is when Hunter mentions he's running "operations" with a huge monthly cost. I'm guessing it's for some sort of scientific research, but if not cloning, then what? :unsure:
Well - maaaybe Hunter lied when he said she has died and infact the coffin was empty. But instead he paid a huge amount for a very new, secret and experimental cure method, which caused her to become younger and younger. That lasted since a very short time ago. And then she got imprinted with new memories - everything while being in statis of course. Would cost quite a fortune, I guess.
Who knows...? ;)

Other than Brenna taking a "morning after" pill one time, I think Catherine was the only one using birth control. Just a matter of time indeed.
One wonders how wealthy he actually is if he doesn't have enough capital to take two months off without going into the red. I guess he doesn't really have someone he could delegate his responsibilities to (I suppose that would've been Drew in the past). That and the whole...questionable...legality of what he does. I still can't get over the implication in the bad end that he has killed in the past often enough that he has a clean-up guy (who also happens to keep a watch on New Annabelle). So we kind of know he has at least ONE person who is "in" on his dirty deeds (other than Drew).

I don't think so, if I remember correctly he talked about Annabelle's death under the influence of the truth serum. If Annabelle wasn't dead it would have 100% come out when he was talking about her death or cancer, because also I clearly remember Amber's mom saying that the serum not only made you say the truth it made you just offer it voluntarily.

Correct. I highly doubt WWG is gonna pull some kind of wacky sci-fi stunt like that. It'll probably be something more believable like a bastard child or cloning.

Wait we're debating if it's a clone or not? Of course it's a clone, Hunter made her in China 19 years ago, he foreshadows it during his monologue.

I have the Chapter 10 version and now I see there's up until the 12th chapter... How do I upgrade the game to continue with my previous save, continuing from where I left it, not having to start the game again from the beginning?

Just download the new version and play it. Provided you didn't do anything funny with your user data, the game should pick up where you left it. Ren'Py keeps a copy of your save files outside of the game folder.
Don't forget to install the mandatory patch.

if that's not your case unlike for PBS you can also copy the save folder of your old game and paste it into the new one, I think it's in the game folder

The lines were:

"But when conventional medicine failed on it's promise...I scoured the globe looking for help. I went full Lorenzo's Oil."
"Sadly, most research was decades away! Closest cure I found was in China and nineteen years away...I returned home a failure."

You might be onto something. Although calling cloning your wife and waiting for her to grow up a "cure," seems a bit distasteful even for Hunter. How could it be a cure? Stem cell therapy or something? Transplanting her brain into the body of the clone?
Furthermore, how could he know a cure would come into existence in China in 19 years? Is this just a poorly phrased sentence by WWG?

You just reminded me of the 1962 film The Brain That Wouldn't Die, which I watched when it was featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000. It was humorous when they presented it, but the original film's premise is quite horrifying. I'm kind of hoping this is NOT what Hunter has planned.:eek:

Jesus, can you imagine? What a horrifying ending that would be to Annabelle's story.

He killed his son/daughter. He killed his granddaughter. He killed his grandson and chopped off his limbs to use the torso and head for a robot. I don't think anything for him is off the table.

Well, Non-Canon-Hunter did those things. Canon-Hunter may want to do those things, but we don't know if he would.

My point with my comment was that calling a cloned replacement of your wife a "cure" for your wife's cancer/death seems a little out of character for him. I think he genuinely loved Annabelle and I would be hard pressed to consider a cloned version of her to be a replacement of her for him.

As say: “Nothing is impossible.” for Hunter there is nothing surprising whether it is non-canon or canon. he is crazy to the point of sexual desire and takes everything to himself.

his frantic desire is clear from the very beginning of the game, whether he loved Annabelle or not, you can expect anything from him :)

as said dartred murder of one's own grandchildren or son/daughter. this explains a lot, loving and a pity Annabelle is less of a surprise...

But non-canon bad ends have often given us real info before it was in canon routes. Him doing what he did in that bad end is what Hunter would do if given the chance.

The way you phrase it, non-canon hunter has had sex with all the girls. Canon Hunter may want to have sex with all the girls, but we don't know if he would. Get what i'm saying?

I think the point is we can't necessarily condemn Hunter for what he would do... if he doesn't end up doing it. That's some Minority Report thinking right there. :WeSmart:

I see what you're saying. Real info can be gleaned but I think it's important to not always ascribe the motivations/actions of characters in the non-canon endings to the canon characters. An example of this would be Brenna going and fucking all those dogs at that dog pound. Is that something she would do? I would think not.
Sometimes the endings are just there for shock value, I think. Having sex with your daughter is not quite the same as killing your daughter & granddaughter with headshots.

What i'm saying is, the characters shown in bad ends are still what a character would do if given the chance. While Brenna will never fuck a dog in canon, she is shown that if she ever does experience it, she will fall in love with it in canon. Brenna would enjoy fucking dogs, if given the chance because that feeling is inside of her character. only coming out in a bad end.
