It's about existentialism, it's about embracing yet challenging nihilism at the same time, it's about the balance between individualism and collectivism and how the two can coexist similtaneously, and ending E is (in large part) about hope, finding hope and optimism in the desolate, and the synergy and companionship that can be found in something like gaming even when the game itself is a solitary experience.

I could honestly write a dissertation on it I think. I truly think it's something special, not just for gaming, but in any artistic or philosophical medium.
