What exactly is the ending of Dredge? This is a question that many newcomers are puzzled about. Since this game adopts the Cthulhu style, the plot is also extremely profound. In this article, I will specifically bring you an analysis of the game's ending for your reference. I hope this content can be helpful to everyone.

The game actually has two endings, representing the bad ending and the good ending. If the player wants to trigger the good ending, they must engage in a conversation with the lighthouse keeper. During the conversation, the player can persuade the lighthouse keeper to let go of their obsession and suggest that the lighthouse keeper sacrifice themselves to seal the Outer God, helping the sea return to a peaceful state. To achieve this ending, the player must, during the final boss battle against the Outer God Cthulhu, obtain the secret tome and choose to throw it into the sea.
If the player does not choose to throw the tome into the sea at the critical moment, it is very likely to trigger the bad ending.

There are many ways to trigger the bad ending, with the most typical being when the player fails to collect the ancient god's relics within the specified time and lacks sacrifices during the summoning ritual. As a result, the player does not successfully reveal all the Outer God's energy, leading to the failure of the ritual. Consequently, the player will anger the Outer God and be brutally killed by it.
After the player has collected all the sacrifices, they can actually trigger the condition to obtain the ancient tome during the ritual. However, if the player chooses to keep the tome instead of discarding it, they will still become a sacrifice to the Outer God, re-enter the sea, and face challenges related to Cthulhu.

It is recommended that players explore the sea as much as possible in the early stages of the game, collecting a large number of sacrificial relics. It should be noted that the last relic is actually stored in the lighthouse. The player needs to use dialogue to persuade the lighthouse keeper to abandon the call of the Outer God.

The content above is the complete introduction to the endings of Dredge that I have brought to you. In fact, whether it's a good or bad ending, both can serve as collectibles in the game. Players can save multiple storylines and experience the development of the game's plot. I hope that after reading this content, everyone can directly enter the game and experience it.
