Did you find the scientist still alive at the end of the game?

-

Hey everyone! I just finished the game and went straight for the Operator ending without knowing much about it beforehand. I absolutely loved the experience, but I had this gut feeling when I came across a shiny red telephone, which made me realize phones play an important role in the game.

Now, here’s my real question: when you returned to the bunker to escape with the operator, was the scientist still alive for you? He was for me. I initially went back as soon as I got the signal redirector and he wasn’t there, but then I reloaded a save outside the bunker, and guess what? He was back! This is either a weird glitch or hints at something more mysterious, but since he only said, “What are you still doing here?! Get out of here!”, I’m leaning towards it being a bug.

For me, the scientist was gone when I checked. I have no idea why he disappeared, though.

I actually found him there! It felt a bit paranormal, to be honest. Like that wise stalker said: ‘There are no bugs, only anomalies.’

I really hope it’s something paranormal and not just a bug. I had so many theories about the Operator ending having a time twist. The scientist being there just reinforced that for me. I explored the area, and nothing else had respawned; it was just him acting as if I’d never left!

Same here! The guy was totally absent, and it just felt off. Didn’t expect that after the ending!
