Peripheral being cancelled was a blow for me as I loved it a lot. I am a huge fan of FROM and have been going a bit nuts waiting for season 3 to drop.
****spoilers for those who haven't seen it follow****
I think it's dark Fae but we will see. Definitely magic involved IMO, they are not dead and there is no government experiment.
Not really sure how they will move forward from that ending. Although it seems most if all were in a moving vehicle [Airplane_Lost] before ending up in that town [Island_Lost]?
My take: they are all between life and death after a vehicle crash. No one is telling or seeing the truth because this perception is a lie and does not matter. The medication you take looks like danger from leaving the nightmare, like a bee sting instead of a syringe. When you die in the town you wake up from your coma in the hospital.
I am sure I am wrong but this is the kind of fun missing from the great looking but superficial Fallout. In Fallout there is this bizarre time mmm distortion. People can walk miles faster that those flying machines, yet everything seems to be very close to each other, from extreme deserted places to very humid flooded areas. "Zombies" are almost immortals, but they still need to eat and drink. Losing a finger is no big deal either. A shockwave from a huge nuke a few miles away can barely break sliding windows, giving you plenty of time escaping the hell that follows on horseback... "Yee haw!".
And now that I think deeper about it, good guys or bad guys. They are all evil and dumb.
I am rooting for the ghoul, the most honest well defined character with a clear purpose
I'll just say
"faraway trees"
the statue in the town centre - fae
the "talismans"
The way they creatures simply look.
Purgatory/coma/between life and death HAS been done to death, and I am really certain that's not what is happening in FROM.
But that's good, keep on that, so you can be surprised when you find out it's all real and dark fae have created it, using magic.
My chat group and I are so sure about this, BUT, heck, we'd be happy to be proven wrong also, as then it's a better surprise!
But I honestly believe the chances of it being an "inbetween" scenario are nil. We'll see though, as long as it doesn't get cancelled before a resolution happens! Shows like this terrify me in another way - that we'll watch and get left on a cliffhanger.
