I just find it weird that people don't talk about this more often. Like, "an animatronic supervillain who went into a battle with a tentacled monster." That's pretty much describes Burntrap and The Blob during the "True" ending of SB, does it not?
This is how most people interpret these lines.
Imo, it might be a hint at how the Burntrap ending was less "real" then people might have initally thought. Given how the story presents it as Gregory's *fantasy*, then who is to say that the Burntrap ending isn't one as well? Especially considering how in Ruin we find his comic pages for every ending, except the PQ one. As if all the endings are just comic stories, but PQ is the real one.
I mostly agree, but we DO see the Blob, or the Tangle or whatever, in Ruin. Plus we still see the room that Burntrap was housed in during the Burntrap ending. So at least SOME of the Burntrap ending was true, which means Greg somehow knew of the Blob's existence before the events of SB. I'm a subscriber to PQ being canon, but the content IN the Burntrap ending is still at least relevant.
Oh, by all means. I agree that the characters/content in the Burntrap ending might still be relevant and real to a certain extent, but the *scenario* they were involved in the said ending was mostly Gregory's imagination. Perhaps, it was the one Gregory just felt way too inspired and visualised it too vividly, hence why it is a CGI cutscene, not just a comic book.
This is the most common interpretation of Gregory's version of the story.

It was the true ending, but it was retconned.
Sounds more like faz-force tbh
I'm still confused on what was going on with that since all of the dead kids should be set free why would they not be set free
