Have you ever met someone on meds for a personality disorder (I don't know the names/terms), how they complain about feeling numb, how they want to stop the medication just so they can feel something again.
Thats how I see Red, he has been suppressed so much that the returning sensations/emotions are overwhelming.
I actually do know people like that, my father was a shrink with a private practice he had his office in the house so I met a lot of them over the years. The problem is the drugs they have to treat these things are totally fucked up and make the person feel dead but the people who really need those drugs are so fucked up without them that they can't function normally( god I hate that word normally, WTF is normal anyway) and end up hurting themselves or worse yet the people around them.
I see Red as being so possessive that it has morphed into an emotional attachment I view Red and the MC as two sides of the same coin classic schizophrenia , the two sides are slowly merging influencing each other The MC is most certainly being influenced by Red so why wouldn't Red be influenced by the MC?
Its all speculation from everyone here , it is interesting to bounce our idea's off each other I discount none of what is said nor do I think anyone is wrong at this point. The time line is so all over the place there are plot points that may take place earlier or later and until the game is finished it will be really hard to figure it out for sure. I plan my self once this is finished to read back on this thread and see who had it right not for gloating but purely academic. assumming we are all still here at that point wont it be cool to see who's hunches were more correct? I think so but I am a straight out weirdo for sure
