    What I love is that the infected represents deep sea creatures. Rennick is an anglerfish. Trots is a sea slug. Muir is a spider crab. Addair and Gibbo are blobfish. O'Connor was becoming deep sea coral. Roper was possibly turning into a sea sponge.
    Edit: If they were infected, I could see Roy as a Giant Isopod and Caz as a Chimaera Shark.
    Their monster forms remind me of The Walking Dead theory, that they're aware of what's happening but can't do anything. The men are alive in the monster that's altered them, but it's using their memories and personality to show what Caz sees. I doubt Gibbo, Muir, O'Connor, Roper and Trots would have hurt him if they were in control of themselves.
    When Rennick says 'I told them we are leaving,' you can hear a strain in his voice as if he's in pain and trying not to show it. It's his body fighting off the infection because he probably touched the biomass by accident. Him turning probably scared Archie which caused the crash. Gregor and Roy really got it easy compared to everyone else.
    Roy's actor is Shaun Dooley who played Yura in Elden Ring and Gray in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Rennick's actor is Clive Russell who played Brynden Tully in Game of Thrones. Caz's actor is Adam Smasher from Cyberpunk.

    I always wondered and theorized if Rennick knew what was down there at the very beginning. I mean, he may not have known *exactly* what it was, but I don't think he was drilling specifically for oil. The reason I say this is because Rennick was acting *way* too nonchalant about the *very bad* situation that was unfolding on the rig. I don't believe for a second he didn't see what was going on. And the more I thought about it, the more it made sense; I learned from Gaming Harry's video that the time period when this game takes place in Scotland was when the country's economy had just gotten out of huge turmoil. The discovery of oil in the North Sea served to jumpstart it, but civilians were concerned that the government wasn't looking out for the common man. The reason why Rennick was pissed that Caz was there was because he could attract the police to the rig. The police, who are extensions of the government. He didn't want them to discover what they were drilling for and claim jurisdiction over it, which would lock Rennick out of all the potential money he could make. And he seems to be the kind of man to prioritize making a profit over people's lives. As for the organism itself, I'm not so sure it's an eldritch horror. It might be an alien parasite or bacteria that crash-landed on Earth millions and millions of years ago from a meteor, and was only dormant all this time, of course, until it was drilled into. Anyway, that's my take.

Person but what we see it becomes in the end game, becoming a massive spire with its own magnetic field/ gravitational field a parasite couldnt do that, also with how its capable of adding mass to a persons body making them horribly disfigured and unrecognisable ans the hint that if it got to the main land what happened on the rig would look like a sunny comapred to the horror and destruction it would cause on thr mainlan

      It definitely seems like an eldritch/lovecraftian horror type of thing imo. The “fear of the unknown” aspect of the game, tentacle-type appendages the “infected” people had, the madness, the hallucinations plaguing Caz or anyone who got close to the giant entity on the drill, and a bunch of other stuff that happened in the game are common themes with eldritch horror. Even if it was an alien parasite, bacteria, etc. from space, that would still be considered eldritch/cosmic horror (eldritch horror = horror of the unknowable and incomprehensible). Ultimately, this seems to be inspired by one of (or multiple) H.P. Lovecraft stories.

      The transformation into the monsters also only seems to occur with living flesh - as far as I can tell, not a single corpse got reanimated as a creature after their death. Gibbo was splashed with oil and attacked Finlay before he transformed; Trots was alive and screaming when he was transformed; we hear Muir transform while on the phone to Innes; O'Connor was barely alive when he was assimilated; Roper was clinging on but still alive.
      Rennick, I mention above, but Addair is the only one of the crew who is unaccounted for in terms of when he transforms. Maybe they'll do a DLC from the viewpoint of Finlay, and she helps to fill in those gaps

    I have a theory that the growth/creature is trying to assimilate people into it's form peacefully but just fails at it. When you get close to any part of the creature, especially the heart, it takes you back to your memories. It's trying to pacify people as it absorbs them but it's messing it up. It could be messing up because the people are so stressed they're only getting in fragments of memories and the panic is pulling them out, OR the creature was in a deep sleep wherever it was underwater and with it being woken up its groggy and can't use it's power right.
    Just my little theory on what this game I adore.

    The shitty part is with the polis being an alibi, Cadal would probably blame Caz's elec skills to setting the rig ablaze and destroying it. Taking absolutely no responsibility for the terrible work environments they funded. It would be gnarly if a sequel was to be made where, lucky Caz, survives only to watch as the corrupted infectious entity is not yet dead. What would be cooler is if Caz is an old man now suffering amnesia and goes under a new name - only to be employed by a new oil rig. We're closer to modern day but in the same waters and one freak encounter with the same growths you learn throughout the game who Caz was only to discover its the crewmen who has slowly been getting his memories back.

    This is a great story, but the thing that takes me out of it most is the unreasonable depiction of diabetes. Roy needed insulin, not food, meaning his blood glucose was elevated, not low.
    Diabetics can survive for far, far longer with uncontrolled high glucose than with uncontrolled low glucose. The game only seems to take place over a few hours, so unless Roy had been very poorly controlling his diabetes prior to the game, there's little biological reason why Roy would be gone from needing insulin. It's needing glucose that's rather quickly fatal.

It could also be the terrible working conditions during the Thatcher year. The whole game is pretty much an allegory.

    There’s a theory that before humans die, the brain releases serotonin and several other chemicals right before you die. Which causes hallucinations, which is why sometimes people have visions of loved ones or their interpretation heaven right as they start passing away. I have no idea if there is an afterlife, and I’m not here to debate it. But I like to think the main character did fully destroy the monster since he was no longer under its mind control. He killed it and broke free, letting his brain give him the control to see the ending of his life that he wanted to see. He killed the organism and was rewarded with the death he wanted.

      Brodie may have lived if Finlay had waited a little longer before telling Caz to flood the pontoons, as you can hear her assuring Caz that Brodie had made it out. on the contrary, he was preparing to head out. Caz then filled the pontoons, getting Brodie stranded in Making the entire escape plan go to s***.
      If Finlay had listened to Caz's fears about Brodie or waited for confirmation, Brodie would have gotten out. But because she was too stubborn, he got stuck, thus he died. Finlay felt guilty and lost hope after receiving his final call informing him that he was still stranded in the Pontoons. Confirming that her assurance that he was out (yet wasnt) confirmed Caz fear.
      As a result, both her and Caz died. It took me this long to find it out.
