Difference between endings in SH4

Post by Anonymous »

What's difference? I've seen all four endings, and can't really figure out the difference between "Mother" and "Escape"
Does anyone know difference?? Could you please explain to me?

The "Mother" ending will show a possessed version of Henry's room with the camera zoomed in on his diary at the end. Also, the dialog between Henry and Eileen is slightly different in that in the "Mother" ending, they decide to go back, where as in the "Escape" ending, they are going to find someplace else to live.

well I know both ending- Escape ending ends w/ Eileen saying "We will have to find new place to live." and Mother ending ends w/ Eileen deciding to go back.
But what would be different? The meaning? Why would Eileen wants to go back to their spoiled, crappy apartment? Is there any significant meaning involved in it??

Escape = a very good, very posi ending.
Mother = Eileen gets used as part of the ritual. Henry does not. Eileen is the Mother Reborn. It says so in the game, in a note that you save and can go back to and read whenever you so desire.
I'm not dead yet, dammit.
