- I'm not entirely sure why. Maybe it's watching the first episode of the newest season late at night, maybe it's the song while talking to The Transcendant One, maybe it's the messaging and changing nature of a man, maybe it's the confrontation itself, but for some reason, that song which I have not heard in likely two or three years wormed its way into my head as soon as I went upon that roof and confronted my mortality. It seems fitting, too, for defeating my past and trying to set the planes right with my final actions as an immortal being, arriving in hell to carry on fighting.

Also, that final scene? Angel. "Let's get to work."

Seriously, a very good game. I was touched by the sheer amount of characterization, depth, and care taken for all but the most minor and generic of characters. The quests were complex enough to need time spent figuring them out, yet simple enough that they can be done quickly if you come across an answer to the solution right away or have confidence in your choices of dialogue. The worlds were varied enough though I would've liked to have spent more time exploring new planes, or at the very least have Curst and The Hive feel more different in texture. I felt like I was just in a suburb and not a place for the worst peoples.

It was a very good game, one I may or may not play again years from now. I did check out what they had for other endings than what I got and... well, there's not much differentiation enough to try at that again. The journey there was excellent though.
