If they have imrpoved it i might give it a shot.

 

Though I found the original quite awful, just sooo awful.  Espeically considering all the reading into it so many fans did, when even the actual creator said "There is basically no deep meaning or symbolism, i just added stuff cause i thought it looked cool and wanted to convey sadness."

 

Nothing I hate more is when people talk about how deep something is when the creator says "It's not deep really, i just made stuff as i went along and wanted to make it weird."

The included book that comes with 1.11 sums it up the best. Its a story of a boy that has to face the samething over and over again while being tormented by the outside influences of his life. The Rebuild deepens the understanding of the outside influences greatly.

Oh I agree, it just makes me laugh when ever people talk about stuff like "She we're a cross because of this and this and it shows this"

when he said "She wears a cross because I thought the crusifix looked cool!"

and people are talking about the greater philosophical importance between the monsters beign angels, and adam and lilith and all the bible termonology.

When there was nothing behind it, excpet he just felt like using that as a template.
