Did you ever notice how in each level, you're always going down?

Just another touch of great in-game storytelling in this game.

What do you mean by going down?

I can only assume this...

The level design has you always descending. Literally and metaphorically. All the way down to hell.

Play and you'll notice it.

@AssInAss: I did play the game but I felt you went up and down more than always down. Either way I see where you getting at.

Interesting notice to detail.

Very nice observation. I think the elevator at the end would be the only particular distinction.

God damn, this game is so freakin' amazing.

Didn't someone mention that on the GameSpot spoilercast that Jeff was on? Or am I just going crazy.

I remember the writer mentioning it on that. You are not alone duder!

That and ascending the Radio Tower.

...on whom? And for how long?

Honestly, I don't agree; there are a lot of times when you are either high up or going upwards - you even walk upstairs to get to the end...

The only game that I've really seen pull this metaphor off is Beneath a Steel Sky.

damn i gotta play this

I love how Konrads face is everywhere.

The elevator at the end would signal the truth in the downward trek. Although I agree with some other people, that while I did personally notice that a lot of the game had you going down, there were enough parts that had you going up as well that makes me question this metephor.
