If is a Quantum Simulation of course.
What do you consider a quantum simulation?
This is some kind of limited approximation of reality in a local point that is carried out through both scientific and supernatural means. We can interact with it, but whether we can make ripples that would be felt 100 years from now is an open question. After all, even time travel theories include one that presents the world state as something inertial that glosses over any attempts to make changes to it.
This was the thing that interested me most once I imagined our predicament as a simulation. What if Maeda Keiji is born to different parents? What if he is never born at all? Can we make it so? Will the other fill in those shoes? Will it make it any better if they do or don't? And what happens if the world in the bubble goes completely out of sync with the external one?
I feel like a monkey who got into a nuclear silo's command room. The probability that we can guess the access code and anything at all happens is miniscule, but on the off-chance it does happen... maybe it would be better if we didn't touch anything?
Doubtful, of Fox Guy/Baron more probably, he is the one that sent us here after all.
He is likely the 'guardian spirit' the Elder mentioned. I have a feeling that he is fine with any resolution, as long as there is one.
The Twelve have been forcefully inserted by Evil Seiji in the Experiment, so taking them out could be what Juuzo wants, the problem is that their role seems to be sacrifices to further Evil Seiji's agenda.
Undoing the evil of the past as we can and collapsing the bubble are the only wayv to get the best ending here.
My understanding is that if the bubble collapses, so will any changes we made while inside.
That's what I am talking about. Our grasp of the situation is very crude and incomplete, but there are two vague ways to end this that I see:
- To abort the Experiment and hopefully get the twelve or however many we can out. This seems to be in line with Juuzo's wishes, except that he is under some kind of a deadline due to Chinese watching him and our actions might make him skip it.
- To proceed with the Experiment that Seiji might have conducted to change the past. I don't like his plans one bit, but it seems that we will have to play along if we go with the 'overwriting reality' route (that's assuming it's even on the table).
There might be a chance to take over and bend the Experiment to our will, though we still know too little about it.
