At no point in the game including the ending did I ever get the message that "nothing matters". The ending was a pretty basic ending, its purpose was not to close the game but rather leave the game open to continue exploring. The game is extremely cynical, but that is what makes it so great, it holds a mirror to our society and makes us laugh at our own warts.
