I agree. Especially since it happened very recently before the start of the game (a matter of weeks probably since we know he funeral was the day before). Perhaps WWG didn't want to have a such a depressing thread throughout the early game (given how this game is generally pretty light-hearted). Or it's possible there wasn't much love lost between the family and David.I get what you're saying, but I still find it odd that none of the characters talk about David's death, if only because he was so young. Even if he died in an accident or from an illness, and no foul play was suspected, it's still a traumatic event for the family. It's as if they haven't started the grieving process, or they got through it at record speed.
Actually, I have a longshot theory that David is still alive, but I'm hesitant to discuss it. I don't want to ruin the surprise if it turns out to be true.
You might be right on both points, especially the latter. Ophelia and Brenna both acknowledge David's cruel behavior towards Sterling; perhaps the family had become dysfunctional in the four years since Sterling left.I agree.

All possibilities, but I wouldn't read much into the phrase "taken from me/us". It means someone's life was taken, not necessarily that their body was taken. It's a common expression when talking about people who died young, whether "taken" by another person (e.g. a drunk driver) or simply "taken" by God (as in the case of an illness).Ophelia did say he was "taken from her." Was there no body to bury? What if he "went missing" or was in a fire. Some kind of accident that would make it understandable for there to not be a body. Perhaps he faked his own death? Maybe he knew Hunter was on his way and couldn't handle another encounter with him.
I'm thinking something along these lines...That being said, I'm not sure what the implications of David still being alive would be. If he shows back up, the whole family will likely be pregnant and pretty much devoted to Sterling. Maybe he'll confess to the affair with Drew and the two of them will ride off into the sunset. That wouldn't be too unrealistic of an ending for them.
If David didn't die that Hunter faked his death, there will be too much drama in one last chapter. Unless the ending is David somehow found his way home and witness the family fuckfest which the story ends with a surprise note.I said this theory many times about Hunter causing David death, but as i see y’all questioning on if he’s still alive, it makes me think, during David funeral, did the family ever opened the casket to see his body was in there cuz if not then I have a good theory on what really could have happened before he died.
Theory time: So after conquering so many families and making so much money, Hunter looks at himself and sees that he’s getting old and doesn’t have a lot of time, and before he dies, he wants his family back and complete his work as the Dioś de Sesso but he knew as long as David is around, he won’t be able to do it. So I think Hunter spied on him for a while and during the right time, he tranquilize him and called someone to help move him and he has David locked up somewhere. So in order to make sure that the family won’t try to find him, Hunter arranged to fake David death. he could say he died in a burning building or a car crashed or etc. With everyone thinking David is dead, he could slide right in their lives and full commence his plans but what hunter didn’t count on was Sterling returning home and I feel like that right there is what screwed everything up.
Lol... I imagine this picture, David ran away and is looking for a way home and now he open the door on the threshold and see how his son bangs his wife and daughters...Unless the ending is David somehow found his way home and witness the family fuckfest which the story ends with a surprise note.
Also his mother and sister and niece and his possible affair lover. What a scene.Lol... I imagine this picture, David ran away and is looking for a way home and now he open the door on the threshold and see how his son bangs his wife and daughters...

That's an interesting theory, and it certainly sounds like something that Hunter might do. However, why would Hunter bother going to the trouble of faking David's death and keeping him prisoner, when he could've simply killed him? Is it an elaborate revenge against David, where Hunter wants David alive to see him conquer the family?I said this theory many times about Hunter causing David death, but as i see y’all questioning on if he’s still alive, it makes me think, during David funeral, did the family ever opened the casket to see his body was in there cuz if not then I have a good theory on what really could have happened before he died.

It will be interesting to see if they explain how things developed between David & Drew. I wonder if it happened before or after Drew's transition.You might be right on both points, especially the latter. Ophelia and Brenna both acknowledge David's cruel behavior towards Sterling; perhaps the family had become dysfunctional in the four years since Sterling left.
Sudden thought: maybe David and Ophelia grew apart after Sterling left, and David turned to Drew for "companionship"?

Hunter might see David as the reason the family fractured in 2004. I could definitely see him wanting revenge.That's an interesting theory, and it certainly sounds like something that Hunter might do.

Is it an elaborate revenge against David, where Hunter wants David alive to see him conquer the family?![]()
Hmmmm.... I guess I have one thought: if Hunter had such an idea, David is sitting paralyzed and watching through the camera that Hunter is broadcasting and wanted to show how he fucks the whole family? and then Hunter did not expect Sterling to appear and interfered with his plan....That's an interesting theory, and it certainly sounds like something that Hunter might do.

I was bewildered by that line. Perhaps Hunter is religious and, nearing the end of his life, fears the eternal consequences of his deeds? It would be a surprising sentiment from someone so depraved, but what other kind of salvation could he be talking about?An interesting point I noticed when reading through the scripts the other day was that Hunter seemed to be hinting that New Annabelle showing up would saving him from a bad lifestyle again:
"Annabelle saved me from that life once...and I just hope that I can be saved again."
Just thought that was curious. I guess he was assuming this New Annabelle would have a similar personality to OG Annabelle, in that she'd be willing to see past his deformities and vices and try to make him a better person. To me that seems to be further evidence that New Annabelle might be clone.
Well, New Annabelle showed up immediately after that line, so I'm assuming he's referring to her. He had probably assumed his plan was going to work, so he called his "guy" to bring New Annabelle to the house. I'd imagine his plan was that New Annabelle would "complete" the family and they'd all live happily ever after.I was bewildered by that line.

Well sure, I got the surface meaning. While spending his remaining years "just" fucking Ophelia and family seems a good enough plan to me (lol), I can understand Hunter wanting to feel a greater fulfillment than he gets from mere sexual conquests. I'm just wondering about the implied urgency and importance, also alluded to in Hunter's conversation with Drew in chapter 11. I guess I thought there'd be more to the plan than simply living happily ever after.Well, New Annabelle showed up immediately after that line, so I'm assuming he's referring to her.

The salvation would be New Annabelle saving him from himself, essentially. He was hoping New Annabelle would put him on the straight and narrow like OG Annabelle did.
Rereading that conversation, I guess you're referring to the "retire and enjoy the time you have left"?Well sure, I got the surface meaning.

Well, I assume his helper was Drew as she is #2 at his "company." I'm sure he also has other people working for him as well. We know he has a nurse on call as well as a driver (whoever delivered Annabelle to the house).With this New Annabelle being introduced I am wondering if she will be there to help Hunter. Someone must be helping him with the gas, drugs, robot suit and also with all his surgery after Sterling messes up his chances.
What I could be thinking of is that in the next chapter Annabelle could maybe take one of the girls away some where ( for example Ophelia) and this will help Hunter conquer Ophelia and she will be away for a few weeks. Later both Annabelle and Ophelia come back and Ophelia is a few months pregnant. Then its Brenna, Catherine, Lucia and Aliza.
Also I wonder how the game would have played out if Drew was the baddie at the start instead of Hunter. But this time she could impregnant the girls.
