[@feefington]

All of these fights, alongside the final one of course, are some of the most creative interpretations of "facing your burdens" in video games i think i've ever seen. I love how the themes for the insecurity fights all fit what they're trying to represent too: - Greed is jazzy and bombastic because of how it feels to just give into greed, letting yourself indulge in desire and be a glutton basically - Isolation/Solitude is melancholic and ethereal to represent that feeling of just wanting to...well, _isolate_ yourself from the entire world to avoid being judged. That or just feeling lonely - Fear is *erratic and desperate* because of that overwhelming dread that only keeps getting worse, as if you're about to collapse and have a heart attack on the spot

[@TrueVoidKing14243]

And Hatred’s is very… aggressive. For obvious reasons.

[@feefington]

@@TrueVoidKing14243 Absolutely. Hatred's theme just has *"You're already dead to me"* written all over it

[@sammytheman_taken]

[@iamofgoneyes8997]

​@@feefington then the komodo dragon part kicks in for more adrenaline

[@koolkid4825]

I also like how the 4 emotion’s designs also reflect the things they represent. Greed is a mostly normal stick figure with elongated/lots of arms, representing greed’s want for more, always grabbing and grasping for the next new treasure, and with it being a normal stick figure representing how anyone can fall into the trap of greed. Solitude is a giant eye, representing the player’s want to distance themselves from others because they feel like so many are *watching* them, as they are the chosen one, it also might be how being completely alone has you staring into a metaphorical void for eternity. Fear is a strange tree-like thing, with the ability to hide and camouflage allowing it to escape danger, but never really being able to do anything or go anywhere, stuck in place. It also has lots of hands, which unlike Greed’s which are rubbery and bouncy, are sharp and jagged. People often fidget with their hands when they are scared or nervous. Hatred resembles a typical demon or devil creature, which are signs of anger or wrath. It also has a lot of screaming imagery in its moves, a sign of anger or primal rage.

[@Spencer_TheSpender]

It’s so good how Fear is protrayed. Calling for help, begging for you to take the right path and not be brave enough to take the unknown way, just trying to get you to stop so you can stay alive, it’s so good.

[@sneakysileny]

I really love how fitting every attack is to Fear: - Shockwave is an attack that slowly creeps over, making you scared in anticipation like a monster making it's way over to you, as you have nowhere to run. - Apprehension is a jumpscare like attack. You get caught off guard, as if something just jumped at you from the dark. - He calls for help, which is something normal to do when scared. (Although I am not quite sure why they are frogs and why they "Rebirth." Maybe our character is scared of frogs?) - And he uses Total Dismay to silence you. When scared, some people tend to become completely quiet. And most of the time, silence is when something scary happens.

[@goofy18181]

Maybe it's a frog because of the purple frog in chapter 2 which runs away from you

[@iamofgoneyes8997]

Apprehension, like the name suggests also could be representative of how fear stops you from making rash decisions

[@venosho2167]

This entire area was just screaming Yumme Nikki vibes and I loved it, probably my favourite fear out of the trio. fear itself was also portrayed quite well here. Especially when the music stops for a split second and goes to black before one of fear's helpers arrive and the music plays again.

[@TheBoredOne789]

They should make it that the lower Fear’s health gets, the more warped/demented the forest around him gets (add eyes hiding inside logs, thicker growth, and imagined dangers in the dark corners) and the more erratic he moves. Show the irrational fear taking over or smth like that.

[@ARONNOSuperRonk3333]

I thought maybe slowing down the music the lower he gets but that’s cool too.

[@dianandsukhram7018]

​@@ARONNOSuperRonk3333 maybe speed the music up due to adrenaline from stress caused by paranoia and distress.

[@patrice8487]

In an unused fear battle background, the trees would get more warped at 0:59

[@xhthng3441]

In the unused version the trees were better drawn and at 0:59 they would get immense growth but they caused nausea and other stuff so that’s why they removed it, I also like how this version has the trees quickly drawn, like something would happen if not drawn fast enough

[@dianandsukhram7018]

@xhthng3441 Maybe changing the trees to represent devil horns as it could be fear getting scared or hatred, and hatred resembles the devil.

[@mariogb3539]

I find sad the fact that when Hatred is released at his full potential, you realise after that that this boss actually tried everything in his power to save your character and not try to corrupt it even further unlike Greed and Solitude. Just like in real life : Fear slows you down, but at the same time, it preserves and prevents you from bad decisions.

[@MagoDraws]

Definitely an accurate representation of fear. While it may end up sounding irrational at times, it is always thinking with your own safety in mind

[@avrgtouhoufan]

[@skeleton819]

[@ekaitzlanuitjunior9156]

plus have in mind, "builderman" tried making you get corrupted by grred and solitude but it told you to straight kill your fears

[@LocalSpawnPoint]

@@ekaitzlanuitjunior9156 I think Hatred was luring them out so you can kill them.

[@ARONNOSuperRonk3333]

I have a theory, but this could be false. Fear is actually going to play a HUGE role in the last demo. You see, when we ask about the GhostWalker to the Ghost chef, he says that we must purify our soul to grab it, otherwise we will die touching it. And when nobody was around when we got to it, we made a CHOICE. It’s easily understandable that the Player actually CONSIDERED touching the Ghostwalker, we can tell by us thinking about touching the Ghostwalker itself, but eventually touch it. I think this act WAS ON PURPOSE, but not in the way most think. When we first wake up from Terry’s bed, it’s clear to most that we are a time traveler, so we should be aware of this act. Anyway, moving on, when we first meet “Builderman” we are told that we must do what we have to, and that is to purify the soul. Greed, and Solitude are easily beaten and taken care of, but not for FEAR. FEAR actually knows that “Builderman” is using the Player (I know that Solitude does too, but he keeps that to himself sometimes cause he’s the alone one, but HATRED kept bugging him), similar to how the real life fear works, it’s to protect the body and be aware of your doings. This would explain why Fear knows what is dangerous, and not. By making FEAR collapse, we actually unlock ourselves to where we can do whatever we want without nobody stopping us. Coming back to when we first touched the Ghostwalker, it was most likely Fear who tried to stop us from doing so, hinged with the audio cue. However, our mindset was too gullible. Hatred wanted this to happen, he wanted us to make Fear collapse, he was basically telling us to do our own path, and do a risk if needed. That could also be the reason why we TAMED Hatred, since we can’t let him do damage to our real life, but instead be a spectator and only give us a feeling of hate, but a little less. If we don’t have fear, we will have less chance of survival, due to FEAR being very aware. We can only be scared, as the guardian has to watch us be afraid. FEAR could be the Key to Block Tales, because now that FEAR is weakened, thanks to Hatred, we can make our own choices without anyone stopping us. Heck, we’ve even yet to see a choice option that involves the Player, and not anyone else. So maybe when we get closer to the end, we get to make more (possibly deadly) choices (thanks to the damage we did to FEAR) that affect our game forever. If you’re still reading, thanks for your time, I just thought of this when I was watching the OST.

[@MinebIox]

How gullible of us

[@captain_doom4668]

Imagine, it's going to be like UNDERTALE, where our choices actually matters, where one choice will *that* free will, and one of them is trough our control over our grief; since we've beaten HATE, which means our character will have control over several choice. I know it's confusing, I'm just spitting random nonsense.

[@geodashtime4553]

Solitude did know that Hatred was with Player, it just didn't want it to kill them so the Player can have a fair fight with them.

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

The pause when fear summons help then the beat goes wild hits hard

[@noobadorkisser3]

I love the added detail of hearing heartbeats (e.g., an early, prominent example would be between 0:07 and 0:21), really ties the boss fight together and adds some extra symbolism to the character of Fear. Loved this song, one of my favorites!

this theme is probably one of the best in the game right now, and combined with the absolute insane fight this was, and the added details like the music cutting out when fear called for help was so cool. i'm just worried this chapter is going to be the peak of this game with how much it felt like the stakes were raised and just how insane the jump in quality was

"You are silenced. You can't use SP moves."

[@mel7906]

I had a knot in my throat when I began to fight Fear. There was an unsettling pit in my stomach which felt filled with lead. I wanted cry and stop the game then and there, but I forced myself into the fight opening with Jet Boots. Suddenly I could breathe again and focused on what I needed to do. By the end I felt so much better, and at peace, ready to face anything. Its been a long time since a game made me feel that emotionally connected. Blocktales invests in you as their cherished player, and deeply encourages the value of self-reflection, a critical life skill at any age.

[@TheFedoraWearingWeirdo]

I love how fear isn’t afraid of the player it’s just afraid to be feared (it’s also trying to help the player which is so sad)

[@arandomgamer9317]

I feel like no one mentions how “Builderman” manipulates you into killing Fear The only thing standing in his way from control are Greed, Solitude, and Fear He gets you to kill Greed first. Greed is a deadly sin, so it’s not surprising that it needs to be fought. He even baits you into the trap so Greed will attack first. Not only does this take out one of the things impeding on his plan, it also pulls you in. You think “oh, so we’re killing sins, that’s fine.” Then you get to Solitude. Solitude doesn’t WANT to fight you, he’s just sitting alone. Builderman hypes up the fight by warning you that Solitude has never met another person, and will likely be violent. Solitude also isn’t a sin, so why are you fighting him? But Builderman has already manipulated you, you trust him, and Solitude isn’t a good emotion. Besides, that’s the only way to get out of here, right? Then you reach Fear. Fear doesn’t attack you, he actively tries to make you go away. He doesn’t want to hurt you, he wants to help and protect you. Fear isn’t even a sin, it’s something made to protect you from danger. He even warns you about Builderman. But Builderman hasn’t attacked you even when you put your trust into him, there’s no way he’s evil. So you fight Fear. He’s blocking your way out and you’ve already fought the others, might as well take him out too. Builderman gets you to trust him by starting with something good and easy, fighting Greed (an aggressive sin). Then he shifts to Solitude, who’s noticeable less aggressive and isn’t even that evil, but it’s close enough. Finally you reach Fear, and using thanks to your trust (and bias) in Builderman, you villainize someone who’s only trying to help. Builderman controls you like a cult leader, taking you step by step down a darker path. Going from a good decision to an evil one is unlikely to work, but going from a good one to a little less good to a little less to slightly bad to slightly more bad and so on is much more effective.

[@user-zx9xb6tm6i]
