Endless doesn't work as a concept

Nothing lasts forever, the character behind the camera can't live forever and as such the game of life and death can't go on for eternity.
Endless the way Valenos talks about it would imply it's a game between two immortals to happen from now unto eternity.

Does this mean this takes place post game when both characters are immortal and have all the time in the world to play until something happens? Otherwise as a concept endless doesn't work as a real game for realisms sake.

Just a little something that crossed my mind.

Unless of course the game itself creates a kind of pocket dimension of eternity where the game can play forever seperate from the main world, I suppose we don't really know the real power behind the game yet

As Valenos says : The game is as long as eternity, except if you finally die.

Does he mean that figuratively or literally though. As in you can play forever until you die in the game, or until you die playing the game.

This is absolutely the best possible situation for me to bust out my "a wizard did it' explanation.

Whoever this wizard is he better count his luck that he doesn't run into Kallas.

Endless is the main reason why HoF and HoF 2 have been and will become great successes with tons of replay value and open DLC options. The story by itself why good, won't push you to play again more than 2-3 times even if you love the game, whereas the adventure into the unknown filled with discovery, thrill, dangers and rewards is where the game shines at it's best.

Im not saying endless is bad. Just the concept of an endless game doesn't work unless the player is immortal. Nothing ill meant
