... so did Godot strike anyone else as possibly or potentially deranged? I don't mean that in a bad way, but... hm, well, let me put it this way. Usually I spend a lot of time getting into a character's head and making at least partial sense of him or her, but I spent all of GS3 essentially going "...what?" to many parts of what Godot said or did. Apparently I'm not alone in this? When I first finished GS3 I promptly handed it to my flatmate to play and during the first trial he declared that "Godot is kind of a freak." And his opinion didn't change all through or after finishing the game. That sounds a little horrible unless you know him (my flatmate), but a couple other people I know have also expressed similar ambivalence and uncertainty about what exactly Godot is doing, so... this... kind of came up while I was looking for possible explanations. It also 'came up' about all of fifteen minutes ago, so this is absolutely... first draft theory material. Whatever. It's all in a big fat spoiler thing because there are spoilers in the argument/reasoning. Self-explanatory. There's a TL;DR at the bottom because... it's long.

Spoiler: GS3
Let me rehash: Godot is... well, on one hand he's rather extroverted, which is fine, but he peppers perfectly reasonable court statements and other sentences with bizarre non-sequiters and almost completely incomprehensible metaphors that feel like they're missing like sixty percent of what's required to make sense. He's almost winging off into left field except he's perfectly aware of what's going on and it's... not like what he's sang doesn't have some sort of meaning, it's just incredibly distorted and often incomprehensible (or incomprehensibly complicated or unneeded.) And then there are his almost irrationally organised legal assaults on Phoenix, and his bizarre two-faced relationship with Maya (and Pearl) that just... everything would make sense but for an inescapable reason that's beyond MY grasp, it just doesn't. Not from a normal human being's standpoint. And his reasoning is... way out in left field, speak--it's not bad reasoning, it's just frequently... like bizarro logic inserted into a perfectly rational thought process. It threw me for loops many times. It's like he has irrational fixations on certain things (coffee, possibly Mia) that get thrown into the works ever fifteen minutes or so and it hashes everything up and it comes out bizarre... without him ever really noticing it as out of the ordinary.

There's also the way he thinks of and refers back to his body, which I think is absolutely cool, but which is... well, he talks of it like an an object or a machine (or a car), which again makes perfect sense but it doesn't--from a normal human being standpoint. (I spend a lot of time talking about normal human beings, but I use it in the theoretical sense... as the fact that I'm writing absolutely proves that I am not one.)

And then there's the whole apparent emotional impairment that he refers to. :B

Thinking back, however, his body and mind suffered an (well, more than one, possibly) extreme trauma from the whole poisoning and 'dying' and spending three years in a bloody coma--stresses and trauma that... well, no normal human being experiences. And I don't know what treatments they used, but it's entirely possible he came out of that with some sort of undetectable (or detectable... either way, minor) neurological damage that disrupted the way he... related to and associated with the world and the reasoning processes involved therein. If you were to take that as 'fact' (or at least hold onto as an idea) for a little bit and consider how he manages to be absolutely functional in every way (almost every way)--in court proceedings, in life, in all those other things--t makes him.... actually, I think that's actually pretty awesome. And if you think about it, he is perfectly competent. The entire game proved him as a competent prosecutor--not against Phoenix, really (and perhaps he needs some way to see red), but in the line of competent prosecutors before him, in terms of preparation and rational argument (sans bizarro tangents and mini monologues)--he's absolutely normal. And then there's... the rest of what I just delineated, which isn't.

Maybe I just like the idea of a potentially (slightly) neurologically abnormal guy perfectly (or more or less... perfectly) functioning in a normal society, but the explanation makes a lot of sense to me in terms of Godot and everything he did.

... feel free to counter with arguments about Diego--Diego struck me as significantly less extreme, but I was also just begging that trial to end because oh gods was it tedious.





TL;DR Version: Do you think Godot is crazy?

I think Godot is totally fascinating and I write things with and about him a lot, so forgive me if I pepper this with my own insights-- but I like to picture Godot as having willingly thrown away everything he was, including his name and his identity as Diego. All of this to escape his guilt over Mia's death and his own grief at what happened to him. He seems to have a perfect grasp on the situation sometimes-- he doesn't really believe that Diego was someone else entirely-- and yet at some points, it's blurry and it's almost as though he DOES think he's someone else entirely. Towards the end of the game as he veers closer to the edge, he starts to get control of himself before falling beyond help. If you really look at it closely, it does seem like he keeps drifting between the saner and snarkier Diego and the angrier and less rational Godot through all the game's events.

He's certainly teetering down the path of craziness. I like the way you mentioned him dancing all over the line-- because that's what it seems like to me. Godot clearly isn't entirely right in the head, but he is perfectly capable and comes off as a totally normal and rational person anyway. I'm working on a fic that details the time right after Diego woke up, and I have the hospital sending him to a therapist when he starts assuming the Godot name-- but there's technically nothing they can do since he's so rational and collected that they can't say he's a danger to himself or others, so they have no choice but to let him do his own thing.

As far as the metaphors go, I don't think that's a sign of craziness- the man just has a way with words. He's clearly quite an amateur poet when he's Diego too. :godot:

Well, let's see:

He was in a coma for SIX years, so he missed his golden years.

Mia died; making him lose his love.

He was a coffee addict as Diego

He had metaphors as Diego

I think the problem is, that he didn't like Phoenix. He thought that Nick let Mia die, and could never forgive him for it. I don't think he's messed up a bit in the head, because while he had mood changes, it all comes back to his opinion of Trite Wright.

:spit: Holy cow, someone replied! Edit: Two someones!

Ah, yeah--I referenced the metaphors because some of them do seem to be completely irrationally based or they show a disconnect with reality (the "context" of the situation) and can be difficult to follow, not because there's anything wrong with them themselves. XD I rather like them, but sometimes they do seem a bit more bizarre than relevant. (I wish I could think of an example, but my copy of GS3 is... at my flat... while I am at my mother's house a few hours away with no car. Uh.)

And... yeah, that was almost exactly my point--there are times when he's perfectly reasonable (albeit a totally different person) and then there are other times where... well, he almost seems to become a caricature of his previous self--ridiculous and almost comical if it weren't so disorienting. In a lot of ways I don't think he can escape his previous identity as Diego--not the least of which is Mia, of course. So, yeah, what you said about how "he keeps drifting between the saner and snarkier Diego and the angrier and less rational Godot through all the game's events" is very much what started this... train of thought. You expressed it a lot better than I did in some ways... I think that for me Godot is an interesting character as much because he's not right in the head as he is because of what he did because of it.

I'd be very interested in seeing that fic you're writing when you're finished, if you'd like to share it--there's not enough good Godot/Diego fanfiction out there anyway, let alone new angles of it.



---

And... dangit, I shoulda left the metaphors out of it. The metaphors were just something he did a lot so I tried to incorporate them. Fail. I guess it just seems to me that there's something else going on there and that... the raw facts explain it, but that he's... not fully explained by them. I tend to overcomplicate things a lot, but I don't... well, he does teeter back and forth a lot and it's interesting. The end. I don't know what else to say now. :yuusaku:

Don't worry about the metaphors, hahaha. I get what you're saying. I think they're more of a character quirk than a sign of instability. They certainly made me laugh.

I think Mia is certainly the biggest thing holding him from totally turning into someone different, but there's shades of his decency in there too. Godot is ruthless and vengeful where Diego still has some morals and decency. The fact that he repents and accepts his Diego name again makes him an immensely more sympathetic character. I wouldn't like him as much as I do if he wasn't repentant about his actions at the end of the game.

I'll certainly share my fic when I'm done with it. It's very hard to write because it's very intensely depressing, obviously... >.>

Spoiler: putting this all inside to be safe
Maybe it's just me, but I think that the whole "I'll invent an alter ego" thing is quite suspicious. Yes, yes, I know he lived (or slept) through some VERY tragic things that would most certainly scratch anyone's psyche - but throwing one's personality away? I'm not saying that he got 100% rid of Diego, but why get a new name and identity? Well, of course to blend out the past. But does he close those chapters of his life? Most definetely no. He plans revenge and this and that - oh, I'm bad at getting my point across and at debating in English (well, debating in general).

Your English debating is FINE. Seriously, it is.

However, like my poor, poor, cracked (and it's a long crack, hopefully that's all it'll stay), Godot pot, there's a reason for everything.

Spoiler: 3-5
I think he changed, because he was protecting himself. He wasn't sure if Dahlia was alive or not, or anything like that. He probably figured to stay out of that, and go into Prosecuting to get some answers. He also changed it, I bet, because he didn't want people to know that Diego Armando was now a prosecutor. So, to sum up, it's more of a shame thing, I believe.

From the impression I've had of the game not everyone who was proven guilty of murder was executed.

Spoiler:
The only ones that seem to be definite are VonKarma and Dahlia. Plus his offense was a defensive maneuver and certainly not as serious as some other cases. That'd be pretty freakin' depressing if every character found guilty in the series was executed. But also would explain why we haven't seen them as repeats. Or not yet at least.

No, I do not believe he got executed. There's almost no way he'd have to pay a heavy price for his crime-- which as IRL lawyers around the boards have said, would qualify as manslaughter at the very most, since he was defending somebody's life in the process. I think he served a year or two at the very most, then got out. The thought of him getting executed is enough to choke me up.

If you ask me if he's dead... I dunno there. Lots of people believe that he died shortly after the game because he was in such poor shape that he didn't have long left to live anyway. I can buy either theory (short jailtime or death) but I don't know which I prefer. I hate to think of him dying, but maybe he'd prefer that so he could be with Mia. ;-;


Spoiler: And on the alter-ego bit
I definitely think he started off PLANNING to throw away his identity, but was unable to really get rid of it as we have seen. That's why when I write him I like to portray him teetering on the line between "Yes, I know this is all something I made up and I'm only pretending" and "No, Diego Armando is dead and I am someone totally different". I tell you, he's an English major's dream.

Godot... what can I say? He confuzzles me so much... :yuusaku: I've constantly tried to step into his shoes and look at his actions from his point of view, but I dunno, his thought process feels .... too complex, I guess I could say. He's a very deep character and he's one of the few characters which I still can't figure out. Characters like him and DeKiller are the kinds that I feel like I know that I'll never understand completely, and it may just be easier to accept their character instead of trying to flesh out all the reasons for what they do.... I'm not saying I'm not gonna keep speculating though :edgy:

As for whether he dies, I see it at this viewpoint: Everything that he was living for during his time as Diego :javado: had been taken away from him when he woke up from his coma. Now if I were him, I'd wish that I had never woken up. However, he still had some "unfinished business" (yes, I watched Casper not too long ago, so sue me.... hehe not literally) so he put up with the annoying checkups, complicated machinery, and all his pain by channeling it into his revenge. At the end of GS3 though, everything seems to have closure. In my opinion, I feel that Godot no longer has anything left to do. He got his revenge against Dahlia (sorta), he finally understood and stopped bullying Trite-- erm Phoenix, but of course, he can't really get Mia back. :sadshoe: I feel that, no matter what happened after GS3, Godot didn't live very long. I like to think that he was so cool and ironic that he poisoned his own coffee so he could die doing something he loved. <---- Yeah I know that sounds corny AND depressing...

I like the idea of Godot as a bit of a nutter, because his actions around 3-5 are really irrational, if I remember well enough (it's been a while, admittedly).

Spoiler:
Mostly, it's the fact that he makes it clear he read the letter that Morgan left for Pearl, and returned it to the spot where Pearl would look for it. There would have been no problems if Pearl didn't find the letter. (this is the detail I'm not so sure about - I'm not entirely sure he actually read the letter or just heard about its contents)
And if Misty can summon Dahlia, why didn't they (Godot and Iris) just chain her to a tree, and THEN have her summon Dahlia so Pearl couldn't? Or they could've just been meanies and chained Pearl to a tree and called it "spirit training."


Whatever, I just didn't get that case and found it wholly unsatisfactory. But I did like Godot. :godot:

Spoiler: 3-5's AWESOMEO PLAN
Yeah, as it's been discussed all over this forum, there are a thousand things wrong with Misty and Godot's AWESOMEO plan in 3-5. It wasn't too bad to begin with but a bunch of hasty and bad decisions as things developed turned it into the disaster it was. At any point there were a thousand things that somebody (Godot... but also Iris and Misty, who often don't get blamed for the trainwreck of a plan) could have done more intelligently than they did, but they didn't, so... yep.


Spoiler: Godot post-game
I see things the same way as you, Jade. I think Diego would be happier if he could just get it over with and go on to reunite with Mia in the afterlife where they can make babies all over the astral plane. If he went the same way he was about to go in the Sienna doujinshi, I'd be all right with it.

At the same time, it would be totally awesome to see him again in a future game, even just as a cameo. I like to picture him sitting on a park bench feeding the birds with Victor Kudo, drinking a thermos of coffee and spouting off his crazy metaphors to anybody who walks by. He's that crazy blind guy in the park and he loves every minute of it.

I think that they wanted to let Pearl get the envelope, because if she didn't find it, she would go back to Morgan and tell her so. Morgan would get suspicious and tell Pearls herself, while figuring out what happened to the letter. So why bother? she'd learn either way.

It would be the same thing, basically. She'd tell her is something didn't go through and Morgan would make things even worse. So they had to wait until that night to do something.


Unrelatedly, who thinks Morgan died during 3-5?

Spoiler:
It seemed like she did, because she said that it seemed like she was just in time. When we heard from her in that one short cameo.

There are some really interesting opinions here. I rather like that. :> That said, I think I might have a small seizure if I spotted Godot at some point in another game. And I can't decide whether I'd be angry with Capcom or not for something like that.

Morgan absolutely did die. They basically came out and said it.

Ich will.

It'd be interesting, if in P.P, you end up finding Godot in a park, drinking coffee. Interacting with him would play a remixed version of ~The Fragrance of Dark Coffee~ and he'd use one of his coffee metaphors

Thanks to Blinq and Arkillian for the sig!

Spoiler:
Well he was nearly killed, his eye-sight's ruined his central-nerve system's a wreck and everyone he's ever loved is dead.
I think under these circumstances it's only natural to...well..drift a little bit from what's normal ^^

I personally think that considering the situation he's in - he's actually quite cool and calm...
But that probably just me being an utter Godot-Fan ^^

Godot cannot manage nerdiness. His devilishly cool aura does not allow it.
