It's not about hunger, the television media, or deformed and abusive adult authority figures, but the consequences of suffering from a dehumanized environment during childhood, which is nothing less than becoming selfish and sinful.
Mono crosses a dehumanized and deformed city forming a bond with Six and being pursued by a lean, suit-clad figure (probably a reference to Michael Jackson) facing situations that suggest nurturing without empathy and self-centered survival as a way of life. At the end of the game the acts of kindness are in vain and Mono (protagonist) and Michael Jackson-TvMan-slim man (antagonist) turn out to be the same entity trapped in a space-time cycle created by the emptiness of Mono and the accumulation of hatred during his childhood, we become our own monsters , even more, it turns out that the intentions of the opposing figure are not bad at all, his only defect is to demand attention. Somewhere is a really good videogame but its lack of pacing during various sections of the game and the inability to detach itself from environmental puzzles makes its almost master set-pieces and its enormous visual imaginary buried. btw, points for not fetishizing Playdead's style children's deaths (fuck Playdead)
and this game is in fact a prequel, not a sequel

Also i have a crush on Buffy the vampire slayer (1997)
