I'm not criticizing the subject matter or themes of the story. Those are great. However, it's harder for me to enjoy a story again and again the more it hinges on a rug pull like you said. It makes all the lead up and foreshadowing related to the twist itself feel cheap and weightless when the mystery element is removed. I welcome disagreement though.

It's important in this case since I think SH2 is a pretty mediocre survival horror game, gameplay wise, compared to 1 and 3. It's kinda carried by the story.
