Vagrant Story now that's a fuckin ending
We always talk about worst endings, but what is the best ending in gaming?
tfw I save and reply every time I lost. I need to catch them all. This was way before I followed any guides except for my own
>Gonna cry? Gonna piss your pants maybe? Maybe shit and cum?
This one still gets me.
You are out of your fucking mind if summoning and killing the aeons (fayth) to kill Yu Yevon, the “immortal” summoning bug thing, is generic in the slightest. I refuse to believe that this setting is so common that it wasn’t a unique experience for you.
>Conkers Bad Fur Day
Most kino ending I've ever seen. It's almost Shakespearean.
>And you never know what you've got... 'til its gone.
>gone
>gone
It's just brainlets who can't comprehend symbolism and lump every JRPG final boss into "lol killing God"
>Cryostasis
A lot of the most memorable endings you'll see are sad, tragic, or at least highly ambivalent, which makes sense because good ending is marked by catharsis, and catharsis usually involves person growing, changing from who they are and that usually happens when we force ourselves to accept something we don't like to accept. Cryostasis is pretty much unique and amazing in that it manages to pull of a GENUINE CATHARSIS while at the same time providing GENUINELY HAPPY ENDING.
It's a testament of really good twist, really good and human, character driven story.
Other noteworthy endings to me:
>Bastion
>Braid (the real ending, not the epilogue that nearly ruins it)
>Silent Hill 2
>Shadow Of Colossus
>Pathologic
>SpecOps The Line (especially the Welcome to Dubai ending)
>Portal
MGS3 for me
