“What differentiates a story from the real world, or a simulation?” ask developer Croteam in a very Baudrillardy way in their announcement post for The Talos Principle 3. “The real world goes on and on, but a story must have a clear beginning, middle, and end. And so the Talos Principle, a story we have worked on for more than a decade, must also come to an end.” Sad! But they’re right, all things must end.
