I don't mind yellow paint as much as it is a sign of the broader issue of big games trying to be idiot-proof. If a game has yellow paint I expect it to be as easy as it can be outside of giving me literal god mode.

Very fitting ending for this discussion too, as I think its message was something like “our destination is wherever we end up” (with Stanley and the narrator making up their own story, with no regards to what the game™ had planned for them).

It was also called the confusion ending :)

quote

“Wouldn't wherever we end up be our destination, even if there's no story there? Or, put in another way, is a story with no destination still a story? Simply by the act of moving forward, are we implying a story such that a destination is inevitably conjured into being via the very manifestation of life itself—”

“So we know that each door has to lead somewhere, which means that somewhere at the place where we're trying to go, there must be a reverse door that leads here! And that in turn means that our destination corresponds with the counter-inverted reverse door's origin. So, starting from the right, let us ask – will taking the right door lead us to where we're going? And since the answer is clearly yes, that means the door on the right must be the correct one. Another victory for logic. Onwards, Stanley! To destiny!”

I love these quotes.
