What are some games with terrible endings that retrospectively ruin the game?

Tales of Graces

Hey I know Llambda possesed the prince, unleashed hordes of monsters on the world, killed people and was all around a massive asshole for the entire game. But the cutscenes we see in the final dungeon showed his dad was a cool guy and died ;_;. Let's let him live in the main character, never avenge any of the people he killed or hold him accountable for anything. Because it would be mean to kill him but its okay to kill everyone else on the world that looks at us funny

Oh shit is I am a Hero finished now? Read up until the point that bitchface was kidnapped by the giant blob after they banged and decided to wait until it was done since a lot of people were saying it was close to the end.

Is it a bad ending?

Welp I just read the final chapter that apparently came out yesterday.

So basically it's I Am Legend without zombies now.

It ended up being worth it since Lambda was able to seal away Fodra Queen in the future.

Spoiler incoming
Hideo goes back to tokyo some groups fight over a helicopter, about 6 people or so take the helicopter to some island ane live happily everafter, gettinh childten and shit. Meanwhile a giant ZQN combination monster is just suspended in tokyo without any soet of resolution as to whats happening to it. Hideo waits for the JSDF to come and dpend atlwast one or two years camping in tokyo. We see him reverting to his old self a bit, with hallucinations and shit. He crafts ammo and hunts some animals. Winter arrives, he kills a boar and then FIN.

retroactively would be a better word.

>spend entire game being teased by the story
>heavily engaged because you can feel there's something big coming to piece it all together
>play up to the final act
>it was nothing
how many games are guilty of this?

What the fuck? No seriously what the fuck? Does the girl go to the island? What happens to her? Literally nothing was resolved.

Well shit.

Do you mean Hiromi?
Dhe gets absorbed into the giant ZQN and seems to become an important part in its nervous system. Hideo fights a bunch of ZQN and pisses Hiromi off so she doesnt want to speak to him anymore.
Yes, there is absolutely 0 resolution except for the new characters that got introduced when it was about 3/4th finished.
Its fucking garbage tbqh

MGSV is the most obvious choice, once you realize the game ends like 2 missions after the story finally kicks off and you realize there is literally no content even though the journey was fun

The word is "retroactively"

I'm still pretty mad.

Ni no kuni for me. The white witch felt super tacked on. Game should have ended after shadar like in the DS version

Damn I got mad just reading that.

Once they introduced the weird aliens and the weird tower cult/community people in the city I started to lose interest. Was more fun when it was just Hideo, Hiromi, and that one chick that got infected by the baby.

MGSV was so bad it kind of killed all my love for the entire series. I used to replay at least one of them a year but ever since V I've had no desire to play them.

Not whole games, but the quarian reveal ruined tali for me. Will developers ever put In major female character aliens that are more than just tentacle head, weird skin color humans?

i think a lot of people would say that the end of star ocean 3 ruins the game

>What are some games
Back off, newfag.

>He didn't like the stellaris live action movie
Aliens uplifted humans to win a galactic war for them and gave them future vision.

Crimson Gem Saga had the same ending whether you won or lost the final boss fight. Pretty much negated the whole damn game.

Just finished The Technomancer.


Also, obligatory Mass Effect 3.

Yes he's such a mary sue he not only survives longer than everyone in the party sans the robot who literally exists purely to counter how OP he is, he also saves the party in nearly every scene in the future arc and just so happens to be the perfect counter to a villain they clearly made just to have him do something other than get away with everything

Putting an awful villain against an asspull doesn't make the awful villain any better.

And he's probably going to fuck her once she calms down too.

Danganronpa V3

That's not even the worst part, the whole time you're not even Big Boss. A bad ending would have been one thing, at least the first half was good. But no, Kojima had to also retroactively make the whole thing shit by make you the fucking GZ medic. I didn't want to believe the rumors going into MGSV but fuck was I assblasted when I finished it.

They could have sent the series off by going into how Big Boss went from a disillusioned legendary soldier, built up his PMC in 80s and became a "bad guy". Instead the last MGS game, the culmination of the series, is about filling in a small plot hole from MG1. Holy shit fuck you Kojima.

Her getting compacted was such a killer moment I'm really sad this ended the way it did.

I would say Deus Ex Mankind Divided but that game didnt have a ending.

It just stopped.

Oh christ just fucking reading what happens at the end of that game made me mad.

I felt pretty fucking burned by the end of DR1 and I didn't even pay for it, I just wanted the 15 or so hours I'd wasted back. It must suck being a fan of that series.

Danganronpa 2 is the only good thing to come out of the franchise, so at least check that out.
But it's ending sucks too.

>Her getting compacted was such a killer moment

Yeah it was pretty great. Somewhat unexpected too. Shame he had to introduce so many useless characters after that. Especially the weird super-human ZQN hybrid things.

what the fucking fuck
I stopped at the tower-aliens stuff
glad I did...
