    I love the idea that the mythological hero Ahti Saarelainen one day retires from seafaring adventure and spends his days cleaning up in an eldritch location.

      Who knows. Maybe he became Eldritch himself? Ahti (at least in Control) is really not explored much. A great character but shrouded in constant shadow and mystery. So it very well might be. Who the fuck knows. When he talks about wanting to go on vacation he does talk about a beach and how he likes the sounds of the sea…

              What happens to Ahti and where he might go are pretty damn spoilery given his discussions in Control and things said in the other game in question.

              Thought that was kind of obvious.

                And none of that was spoilered. Stating that a character is in a movie or a game is not a spoiler. Dumbledore being a part of a harry potter movie is not a spoiler.

                  Your comparison doesn’t work. Harry Potter movies are all called Harry Potter movies. The game mentioned in question has a completely different name and is not categorically stated to be in the same world on its own. Having the character in both is a spoiler.

                  You’re just arguing in bad faith. I’m going to block you now and go back to not knowing you exist, a state of being that is far more enjoyable. Goodbye.

                  You would expect him to be in Harry Potter, you wouldn’t expect him to be in an entirely different franchise.

      Oh wow I love Control and had no idea about this mythology. Didn’t even think to look more into him. Just figured he was the wise old janitor that knew more and was more important than he let on
