Chapter 0:
Eddie Gluskin Psych Evaluation
Note: consider this a prelude to the story, which will begin on the next chapter. Not necessary, but if you're interested in the mind of Eddie Gluskin, then you might find it interesting.
So apparently there's been some disputes on the inter-buttz lately about good ol' Eddie's intentions.
So let's start off first with his view of men. He isn't against men, obviously his actions aren't gay crimes or whatever. He's merely just working with what he's got. No women? Weeeeell, better make some then!
After all, when life gives you lemons –cut their penises off.
So that's the easy notion. This next one however took me an embarrassingly long time to wrap my head around:
Eddie Gluskin doesn't love women despite all his constant insistences. He hates women. Obviously with a violent passion.
At first this surprised me and I disagreed because I was only taking things for face value, but if you look at things REAL close-like, you'll see that there is actually a whole bunch of proof in-game to back this theory up.
First off, Park says this in his note after videotaping Eddie's piñatas in the gym: "He isn't making women to love, he's making women to kill them."
Another biggey is just from what he says when his mood changes. Pretty much everything becomes a demeaning slur towards females, even when most of it is obviously is untrue. The way he refers to women categorically with these insults also demonstrates a stereotypical view of them. I think there's a few more that are included in the unused audio in the game's files, or alternatively look up "Outlast Eddie Gluskin "The Groom" Dialogue" –seriously, tons of new stuff you never heard in the game. Gives a better perspective I think.
Another hint is just the logic behind his past crimes. If Gluskin was so intent on finding a woman to love and impregnate, why didn't he just have a girl tied to a bed down in his basement? Instead he murdered and mutilated several. He obviously isn't stupid enough to go about on a rampage, he's deliberate in everything –he could have easily accomplished effective restraints. So this demonstrates an obvious dissonance with what he says he wants, and what he does. His words and his actions don't add up. Especially considering the only injuries we saw him inflict on his male victims at the asylum were to make them "more womanly" –so what reason would he possibly have to carve up women who already have everything?
And then the biggest question of all: how on earth did he go from being sexually abused by two male family members, to hating women? They seem pretty unrelated, no? I mean, it'd be understandable if older men –or even just men in general were his targets. But women? Why?
This is something I hope to tackle in this up and coming story. Probably.
So yeah, I'm going to hell for this –well without further ado, onto chapter one!
…well maybe with a little ado, the first chapter will be up in give or take a day...
