Title: Cognition Theories and Speculation!
Post by: KatieHal on October 30, 2012, 10:24:05 AM
The upcoming Episode titles are out there, but what do they really mean? What's Erica going to come up against next? What's really going on behind the scenes? Let's hear your theories and wild speculations!

Obviously, spoilers may follow, so you've been warned. :)

I'll hazard a cheap guess and say that this might be somehow related to Episode 2: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_wise_monkeys

I'd love to see some fanart of Erica vs. Three Wise Monkeys. Actual monkeys. :)

One thing that I noticed was the trident symbol. It was tattooed on Antony Longmoore's arm, it was used on his computer to find the last hanging location, AND, it was used by the Cain killer as well, on the wheel Erica had to open the door with. So, we can assume that Davies killer and Cain is the same person.

Now...suspects...

I think I'll place my bets on Cordelia for now. She was at the cemetery the night Scott died. Aaand, she mentioned that she took care of the "family business", and that her dead brother Max was an ace at it. Hmmm... :sneaky:
So Max died in a fire, and Cordelia picked up where he left of.

What's that? She said Max died six years ago? That's in crazy-time, silly! It goes twice as fast as regular time!

I noticed the trident symbol as well (well, I guess everyone did, since we had to take a picture of it  :P). It could also be interpreted as the Greek letter "psi". Rose said Erica was a psion so I suppose the two are related. Besides, the hidden message "if your eyes could see what mine can't", points to Erica's skills as well. I'm not very good at elaborating theories, so I'll remain cautious and wait for episode 2 to check if my intuition is right  ;)

Cordelia's very intriguing, I agree...

And all of a sudden, a cop drama becomes "Fame"!  Heh...

Screenies look good.  I'm getting psyched to play Episode II.

There are some... videos that will never be shown to the public.

Let's just say that they involved glitches from an early build (you can see some in the background of Phoenix Bunch) and the song "What Is Love" by Haddaway.

Well, after playing the 2nd episode, i'm thinking of the worst case scenario : the super killer is a psionic like erica.
After all, how could he put to the test our heroïne's abilities via puzzles she's the only one to solve ?

1) He used his powers to locate various serial killers through Boston, and gave clues to stop them to the local branch of the FBI.

2) His warnings are not heeded, so he eliminates the serial killers himself and punish the agents who were charged to put them out of action with the modus operandi of the killers. In sort, it makes him a serial killer "X" (anyone played Condemned : Criminal Origins ?)

3) The visions of erica are out of control because her nemesis being a psionic, he is a completely unpredictable opponent.

4) That Cordelia is so cute... and since she knows Rose + was a witness to erica's brother's death... hum, suspicious ? Lady in distress (since she required protection) or manipulative monster ?

Like I said, it's only a worst case scenario theory...

Hmm, interesting theories you have there.  :suffer:
Title: Re: Cognition Theories and Speculation!
Post by: Mr_Nabby on February 05, 2013, 01:53:07 PM
Yeah, the killer is most likely a Psion. How else could he/she be able to leave clues that only another Psion would be able to see. Also, in the quiz it says something like: "You have been able to use your ability well."
Title: Re: Cognition Theories and Speculation!
Post by: Mr_Nabby on February 05, 2013, 02:11:04 PM
Wait a second...I just realised something! Whoever the real killer is (I'll strongly believe it's this "Oracle" character) it's no mystery that he possesses a great deal of knowledge of how to manipulate the Cognitive power. Even so that he can fool Erica!

Think like this:
When Sully was kidnapped it really was Tess, plus another person. She Drugged him and took him outside. Then her partner in crime, "Oracle", blew the knockout powder in her face and locked her in the trunk of the car. BUT TESS WAS IN ON IT! It was an act! They knew that when Erica found Tess, she would try to look into the past with her powers. And when she did, she would see the falsified memory that they created. And she would think that Tess was innocent.

Because, really! Are we supposed to believe that someone else was waltzing into the FBI and serving them coffee, and no one would notice? Erica, Sully or John? No one?

Hey, that's another thing. John have been strangely absent from everything... And he just left the FBI station before Sully was kidnapped...So he WAS on the scene of the crime...
Well, you know what they say! It's always the last person you suspect.

Post by: Horazor on February 05, 2013, 03:53:21 PM
My thoughts:

The killer is also a Psion, as Erica, and it's Cordelia, of course. She's like an evil version of Erica, both have lost their siblings.
Title: Re: Cognition Theories and Speculation!
Post by: python79 on February 05, 2013, 04:25:44 PM
The killer used Joey to lead the FBI to the towers where resides Cordelia,  throwing him on the cops supposed to guard the place no less...  it shall be a good opportunity to visit Cordelia's appartment and have some clues on maybe how she lost her own brother.

only played Episode 1 but honestly I had the same idea, that Cordelia is evil.

Maybe her brother was the same guy who kidnapped Erica's brother during the prologue?

I somewhat hope that's not the case, because if it is, it's too obvious and would require a lot of background information on Cordelia to overcome it.  Maybe playing as her and learning her tragic past would help there.

So many questions, happy most of them will be answered in episode 3!

[spoiler]Cordelia = The Oracle obviously. It would have been nice to have some other false leads but its forgiven because there are so many things left to discover about Coredlia in episode 3! What is Max's role (her dead brother). I don't think he's The Cain Killer, although it could be possible I guess if Max is not really dead. Is the Cain Killer involved in her evil schemes. She most definitely has the powers Erica has, otherwise it would be impossible to set up all the devious puzzles. But how did she and Erica get the powers? It does seem that she knows more about her powers than Erica. Ah, cant wait to see how the plot develops. [/spoiler]

I'm pretty sure Cordelia is the Oracle.  It's obvious, really. 

That man at her apartment building that she was "afraid" of was Joey.  And she didn't want the Police there for protection from him, she wanted them there so that she could "release him into their custody."

Yeah, I agree its obvious. But I also like that this will be revealed in episode 3, hopefully quite early. Then there is a whole episode left devoted to the Cain Killer, who he is and what the motives are for him and The Oracle.

Could the Cain killer be Max (Cordelia's "dead" brother)? Possibly, since its hinted in the prequel comic that The Oracle helps building The Cain Killer's deadly contraptions. It would also fit with the brother-sister murder theme. Maybe Max and Cordelia had something traumatic happen to them and they want other siblings to experience the same thing.

In the comic the Oracle has someone captive who is helping her with the building. He doesnt know why he is helping. I can't figure out who that is. Can you?

Title: Cordelia
Post by: Cognition1234 on April 26, 2013, 09:35:17 AM
Hello everyone, I'm new around here :)

Like many of you, I also think that Cordelia is the Oracle. More than that, I think she is the Hangman and the Wise Monkey.
All the leads related to her...
[spoiler]* She was at the crime scene when Scott died.
* She met Rose - that proves she has supernatural powers like Erica and even stronger powers.
* She seems to know more about Erica. She is also keeps comparing Erica to her ("you sound a lot like me sometimes").
* The man she saw and she is afraid of (the one with scars on this face) - I think this is the Cain Killer, and there's a connection between them.
* Max, her dead brother (or maybe he is not dead) - She mentioned that they lost their parents when they were young. Maybe he is the Cain Killer and this is the reason why they kill siblings?
* She lives at Enthon Towers - this is the place where Joey is being thrown off the roof.[/spoiler]

I really hope she isn't the killer, because if she is - then it's too expected and obvious.
You promised that the identify of the killer is disturbing and unexpected :)

Check that:

So, John has been shot. But that wasn't supposed to happen! It was supposed to be someone trying to kill Erica! Hm, yes... It's a braintwister alright...

Does this mean that John was going to try to shoot Erica? No, I don't think so...It is more likely that something changed. But could this be Cordelia's doing? She was having a inner debate in her journal if she should punish John or not for ignoring her advice, and just plainly being lazy. Even if he did help her once...

Yes...I'll place my money on "Cordelia manipulated Erica to kill John because she thought he was responsible for the death of others, like Davies".

Okay, I've GOT to stop looking to stop looking at this thread until either, A) Toegoff finishes his LP or B) I play the game myself!

First Scottie, then Davies, then Sully, now John?! Is everyone close to Erica going to have their life either taken away or at least take a turn for the worst?!

Oh no... I'm remembering the live show a few days ago...

What's this? Is this will be explained in EP4?

Where can I read the rest of that comic? I can hear the characters very well in my head, and it's awesome!

That is the prequel comic--it covers the previous Cain Killer murders in more detail, and has some other vaguely hinted at things that, yes, will be touched on in Episode 4. Some of it will also make a little more sense after playing Ep 3, though, of course.

I've already pieced some things together just from that preview alone! Man, that looks awesome!

Totally forgot about that comic. It feels like so long ago, think it came out with Episode 1 back in October.

Maybe the guy that is hanged there is Keith? And Cordelia (as the Oracle) trying to punish him, now that she knows he is the Cain Killer.

I also would like to learn in EP4 about the victims: Selim and Matthew George. Why the Cain Killer wanted Selim to suffer about her brother? it's really intriguing :)

it's interesting because I hadn't even thought about the prequel comic before, but that actually makes a lot of sense

I can confirm that those are indeed Cordelia and Keith.

That explains a lot, thank you :)

In my opinion, Keith deserves it for what he has done to Cordelia, Erica and many.
He destoryed so many lives...

I am sure that the mysterious egg sandwich will play an important role in cracking the case.
