Is it ever explained WHY Jean ate buffalo at outer heaven, knowing full well that it would make him sick? it's never properly explained in the game.
The only reason I can think of would be if he knew he was in danger, and decided to eat buffalo so investigators could find out where he'd been?

I guess the Snatcher would've suspected that he'd been followed by Jean if Jean had just sat there and watched him, so he ate buffalo, to pretend as if he's just a normal customer.secretplot wrote:Is it ever explained WHY Jean ate buffalo at outer heaven, knowing full well that it would make him sick? it's never properly explained in the game.

By the way, I heard that in the japanese version it's not bufallo, but whale meat. Is that true?

Yes, it is (which makes more sense in a place like Japan).Charlie Johnson wrote:By the way, I heard that in the japanese version it's not bufallo, but whale meat. Is that true?

surely he could've eaten something else--outer heaven's dealings in buffalo/whale meat is supposed to be shady, so i doubt it'd be the only thing on the menu...

But we don't know for sure what else they were serving...might've been something much worse, so he decided to eat whale meat.secretplot wrote:surely he could've eaten something else--outer heaven's dealings in buffalo/whale meat is supposed to be shady, so i doubt it'd be the only thing on the menu...
I doubt that he did it to leave traces. Okay, it was a smart move in the end, because it helped Gillian to track down the Snatcher, but I don't think that was Gibsons intention when he ate that meat. I mean, who is seriously going to think:"I better eat that whale meat in case I get killed, so that they can analyze my corpse and find a clue about what I've been doing,".
Sounds a little far fetched.

That's the impression I got, from the buffalo and all of the other hints he left behind. Knowing he was close, finding Queens Hospital and the underground subway lines, he likely thought death was inevitable and left all of these clues for his successor.The only reason I can think of would be if he knew he was in danger, and decided to eat buffalo so investigators could find out where he'd been?
