In this route, Eike, having gained Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory from previous time loops, uses his newfound knowledge to make better decisions that ultimately result in him undoing the chain of events that led to the creation of Homunculus and the various tragedies that followed. Bittersweet Ending: Almost all of them qualify, but the EX endings take the cake.Big Damn Heroes: In Ending B, Eckhart sneaks up on Hugo from behind and wrestles him to the ground, effectively saving Eike and Margarette.Back Stab: Happens to Eike at least three times First in the beginning, then in the second and fourth chapters.And he was able to build one in the sixteenth century!
PS2 SHADOW OF MEMORIES HOW TO
Awesome by Analysis: Hugo figured out how to make a time machine just by looking at the Digipad for a couple of seconds.He's actually an evil, ancient djinn of unknown origin. Artificial Human: Homunculus, or so the story initially wants you to believe.He's referred to as male and has a male voice, but you'd be forgiven for thinking he was a girl. Instead of just taking it, he reminds Eike beforehand that he's forgotten to return someone to their own time and lets him do so if he wants. To add on to the politeness, in one of the endings Homunculus only needs to collect the digipad from Eike to wrap up his plan.It's why he can continually be brought back. The doctor sold his soul to Homunculus for eternal youth and became Eike. Of course there's the little detail that he owns Eike's soul. About the evilest things he does involve killing the doctor or Hugo in two different endings, though Wagner betrayed him and Hugo was trying to kill him.He's even friendly and chatty with Eike at points, though his default reaction to finding out Eike has been killed and having to pull his soul out of the time stream hovers somewhere between polite amusement and mild exasperation that Eike's taking a while to figure out how to escape death.
Also, his plan isn't as bad as you would think - he just wants to ensure that he isn't Ret-Goned from existence.
The plot, however, swiftly becomes very complicated, as details about the reason for Eike's deaths, the possible identities of his killer, and the Homunculus's true motives are brought into play. The game soon falls into a pattern: Eike is killed at the beginning of a level, revived, and then must travel into the past in order to prevent his death from occurring. If Eike wants to live, he'll have to find the real reason someone's out for his blood, which may be rooted deeper in history than he can imagine. However, the killer isn't going to be put off by being thwarted just once. Pretty short game? Well, not really - Eike is promptly revived by a being called Homunculus, who offers him the chance to change his fate. The main character of the game is Eike Kusch, a young man who is murdered during the game's first cutscene. It was later ported to the PC, Xbox, and eventually the PSP. An Adventure Game released for the PlayStation 2 by Konami in 2001, and titled Shadow of Memories originally and outside of the US.
