Ergo is the very essence of the City of Krat in Lies of P. Almost every little action requires Ergo, be it creating Puppets or communication. Game-wise, Ergo is an essential mechanic used as currency to purchase items from vendors, upgrade weapons, and level up Pinocchio.

Throughout the journey of Lies of P, players are forced to make decisions by either lying or saying the truth. After each encounter, a message will appear that hints which path players choose, like Your Springs are Reacting and The Ergo is Whispering, and each one has a meaning. It usually reveals whether Pinocchio is closer to becoming a real boy or staying as a Puppet.

What Does The Ergo Is Whispering Mean In Lies Of P

The Ergo is Whispering means that Pinocchio is becoming a real boy in Lies of P. As players know, Lies of P is heavily centered around lying and telling the truth, which is why a Humanity Meter decides the Protagonist's fate at the end of the game. Said Meter cannot be seen or tracked anywhere, which means the only way for players to know which path they are leaning into is through the messages that appear after making an important decision.

As players keep lying in Lies of P, the message changes to You Feel Warmth. This means that Pinocchio is on the right track to becoming human, which can also be confirmed by going to Geppetto's office in Hotel Krat and seeing the length of the nose on the portrait. The more lies are told, the more Pinocchio's metaphorical nose grows. Said portrait can be obtained at the end of chapter five upon defeating the Eldest of the Black Rabbit Brotherhood in Lies of P.

The final few steps are crucial towards achieving the Rise of P ending in Lies of P. Pinocchio must give Sophia peace after defeating Laxasia the Complete and then refuse to give up his heart to Geppetto. Shortly after, the true final boss appears, which is the Nameless Puppet, and players must defeat it to unlock the Rise of P ending.
