I just finished Mega Man X. The ending was surprisingly emo in a 90s anime kinda way.
I think the worst ending is probably anything where the lead character dies in the end anyway. It's like winning a contest only to have a biased referee disqualify you after the fact. I can understand if you're doing a video game adaptation of a movie where the protagonist dies at the end, but that should never work its way into any original video story except as a "bad ending." ...

chill02 posted...-RetroActive- posted...great game, dumb ending. basically the premise of the mass effect games is that you are trying to save the galaxy from a major threat, and so you assemble a team of diverse characters to help you out. the gimmick with mass effect is that the squadmates follow you throughout the 3 games in some capacity (as either teammates or NPCs), so by the time Mass Effect 3 rolled around, there were gamers who had been playing through these stories with the same squadmates and characters for years. then you get to the ending of ME3, where you are basically going to stop the major threat. you have to make a choice to walk into one of three beams (each has a different intention for how you'd solve the problem), but after that you are greeted to like a 2 minute cutscene that iirc was nearly the same for whatever choice you made, and that's it. there's no real closure to the story besides a resolution, lots of loose ends, you don't see what happened to these characters the player has grown to love etc --- ...

advance wars dual strike had a pitiful last level It had a pitiful last EVERYTHING. The final boss was a wimp that was merely a faint shadow of the intimidating final boss of the previous games, the penultimate level(where you fight him for the first time) is made in such a way so that you could just cheese it in like 6 turns without building/capturing anything if you don't care about rankings, and the final level actually puts you at a humungous advantage(NOT disadvantage) over the antagonists. They really screwed up on difficulty control in the very last step of the game. --- Link meets Fire Emblem in CYOA: Tales of Elibe! Come read, and find out what happens!

Fallout 3's original ending was so awful and disappointing that it made me take a long, hard look at all the plot points and game features leading up to that moment that I thought I'd liked. The final verdict was not kind.
I thought Final Fantasy Tactics' endgame and ending were kind of letdowns to an otherwise-fantastic game, but part of the issue might have been the PSX translation ( Chrono Cross' ending is what you'd expect from a game that got it's budget cut and had to rely on a massive text-based exposition dump right before facing the final boss. I did always kinda like the monologue at the end though, whether or not it actually had anything to do with the plot at hand. Halo 2's ending wouldn't have bugged me if Halo 3 had actually picked up where 2 left off. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I thought I didn't think it was even close Compared to the final battle of the game, where you just did the same thing you did against leviathan on a much smaller scale. Unless you lucked out on a summon, it was just a tired slug fest with not much changing until you trigger the final blow. They could have made the battle traverse the city more, or have more variety with how you used your armiger powers, all on top of making everything you did leading up to that point seemingly have no effect on the final fight. --- move all remaining groundhog mercenaries to the front lines.

Final Fantasy Tactics' endgame and ending were kind of letdowns to an otherwise-fantastic game, but part of the issue might have been the PSX translation ( Yeah. The endgame was rather lacking (knights and archers in chapter 4, lmao), but I can help with the ending. Ramza and Delita are foil characters. Ramza is the ideal, who operates on the ideal that the best means also lead to the best ends. He doesn't "use" any one, does all the work himself, and wants to save the world and get his sister back. Constrast this to Delita, who has no problem with political assassinations, overthrowing established powers, and uses allies to his own end; the ends of bringing peace to the land and removal of the noble class justifies all this. However, he also truly loves Princess Ovelia. Ovelia, The moral of this is that the ends don't justify the means, or possibly something along the lines of "stare enough into the abyss..." Delita, aware that his own actions have caused him to lose the love of his life and the major reason he did his rise to power in the first place, then ponders on what end befell Ramza, who pursued better means. --- Remember that I won't rest, 'til we share the same tense Just know, to me, you're better late than never again. ...

I'm sick of the "character does/offers a heroic sacrifice" thing in general. It's not bad in itself, but it becomes a problem when it's overdone and when games always accept said sacrifice. Let's get a story where the sacrifice is denied for once, especially if the sacrifice is not guaranteed to work!

Mass Effect 3's original ending. Absolutely no closure and the way it was presented made it seem like everyone died no matter what.
Skyrim was bad too. The whole main story is just hype to what is supposed to amount to Armageddon. Then you go to Mortal Kombat 4 had so bad they were good endings. Didn't Asuras Wrath have an awful ending until some DLC came out? GTA San Andreas and GTA IV also had really lackluster endings I thought. MGS V is probably up their with Mass Effect 3 for king of worst endings though. Edit: Thinking back, Final Fantasy VII's ending was pretty bad I thought too. --- "Wait a minute...If I ever get a hold of you, I will thank you for showing me the futility of human endeavor." ...

After seeing the trailers and getting hyped AS FUCK for MGSV, seeing the chapter 2 trailer after beating chapter 1, etc.
The plot twist and ending literally upset me. One of the only endings that actually pissed me off due to how bad it was. The marketing for that game played me like a damn fiddle. I've been weary of marketing ever since and now only trust raw gameplay footage and general opinion when deciding if a game is probably worth my time. Game was still worth it. 200 hours in it due to the AMAZING gameplay. But holy shit did that ending piss me right off. Especially because I literally got into the series because of the marketing for MGSV. Played every game in chronological order which starred Big Boss. I loved that character and was so hyped for its conclusion and to see him become a monster. I even had it spoiled on the forum on accident from a troll and didn't believe it because of how royally stupid it sounded. But no. It was true. Fuck that ending. --- PSN/Steam: HaVeNII7 ...
