Meanwhile Walter was finally ready to see the outside world and all that life had to offer. He lived on routine for so many years, and yet the one time the train wasn’t on time was when he left. His death was so unbelievably tragic in that it’s what he spent his entire life fearing that killed him— the dangers of living in the outside world. When he was finally ready for the world he didn’t even get the chance to understand what that truly meant. And the last thing he saw was the sky which was for the first time in like 33 years. Walter’s death isn’t through the eyes of an innocent child who barely understands the world. But it was nearly the same in that it was Walter’s fear and naivety that killed him.

Lewis’s death was just awful. Knowing he died the way he did and knowing there's a small chance he didnt even realize what he was doing when he killed himself. The game makes you reflect on your own imaginative capabilities and the depths of just how far your imagination goes. It makes you think about how you choose to detach from reality, and whether or not you are doing it in a healthy way. It has you debating whether the fantastical world in your head is better than what’s in front of you, and whether you'd be willing to leave the life you currently have for it. For Lewis it was, because the monotony and the receptiveness of his daily life is really what pushed him over the edge. The question of "Why should he have to live the dreadful life he has, when the one in his mind was everything he actually wanted but impossible to attain?" And what’s interesting is that his psychiatrist didn’t tell him something was wrong because she thought the positive thoughts were good for him. But thats for another rant.
