We'll never know!
I like to think that...Argh! We'll never know! <br /><br />I like to think that in some form he was supposed to have survived, because the cutscene with Karel shapeshifting suggests he's not really human (or does it? maybe it just suggests that Karel can look like Kurtis?)...<br /><br />However.<br /><br />Much as it pains me to say it, I don't like to guess at what happens outside fictional stories. I would prefer to know for sure and keep what we don't know as a mystery. Consequently, I'm going to have to sit on the fence here.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10583888620915165834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-65736191040357853742013-06-16T10:57:30.273-04:002013-06-16T10:57:30.273-04:00Good catch, Arol!

I will definitely pay closer attention next time, and this is another great reason to do just that. :)Stellalunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03782486742546192464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-88117072899349436782013-06-16T09:16:23.547-04:002013-06-16T09:16:23.547-04:00I got a bit confused about Kurtis.

Didn't his wotsit twitch in Lara's hand at the end?Ostercyhttp://ostercy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-9460627370517067902013-06-16T05:15:27.971-04:002013-06-16T05:15:27.971-04:00Kurtis definitely existed since he and Karel are i...Kurtis definitely existed since he and Karel are in a scene together; right after the escape from the Louvre. If you listen carefully, you hear the “karel changing appearance” sound effect just as “Bouchard” appears. You also hear it during the flashbacks to Von Croy's murder.<br /><br />As for whether or not he survived, all evidence suggests that he did. Either that or his body got eaten.Arolhttp://thelabora-oratry.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-66233130279661263492013-06-15T23:33:32.172-04:002013-06-15T23:33:32.172-04:00I expect that Kurtis lived (unless that was Karel ...I expect that Kurtis lived (unless that was Karel that passed out on the floor, and Kurtis was off galavanting somewhere).<br /><br />Because he was missing at the end and his Churigai Blade was left behind, I think he managed to get out at least half-conscious. Lara would have run into him eventually and went with him to Turkey to find the Nephilim in their underground...temple.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-43929590274280013312013-06-15T20:43:06.660-04:002013-06-15T20:43:06.660-04:00Oh Kurtis.

I like to think he didn't make it, but I have a feeling he did (because of his chirugai coming to life), and would've returned for the other trilogy games.Joseph Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09746564963996868890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-61922101440362646172013-06-15T19:42:39.220-04:002013-06-15T19:42:39.220-04:00He had to!

The only thing that occurs to me is that Kurtis never actually existed, maybe it was Karel all the time. It would explain why did he vanish, but I like to think that old pal Kurtis did in fact exist!Jorge Silvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11940023795534357780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-203486658912585901.post-57423638665512698982013-06-15T18:58:02.245-04:002013-06-15T18:58:02.245-04:00I do.

At least I like to think so.Stellalunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03782486742546192464noreply@blogger.com
