Audiences often have mixed feelings about Jigsaw's character as he seems to have a particular pattern for choosing his victims, mostly people he feels disregard human life. When a victim survived his games, he is quoted saying:
"Congratulations, you are still alive. Most people are so ungrateful to be alive... But not you, not anymore."
Jigsaw is a complex character who seems like he wants people to appreciate human life, and he goes about this in a sadistic manner. However, if anyone survives his games, they end up broken, traumatized, or dead on the inside.
