Last of Us was pretty depressing, even though I had an idea of how it was gonna go down pretty much from the start.

Enigma: Illusion Named Family had a series of depressing endings, and the "good" end is worse than the bad endings.

Meh its usually implied in other games where MC dies. And I think the movies take place in new game plus

I can't wait to see where the movies go though.

3 ends at the bridge
4 will most likely end before the fight
But the blue ray collectors box contains 5 slots

will 5 be the fight and the answer? Just the fight? Original ending?

Rule of Rose

I get she was keeping her memory safe, but still 2 sad
>>
>>323712036
IIRC She was such a bitch that the other girls in her class performed a spell to send her to hell. The spell worked and killed everyone involved. She wakes up in hell, forced to traverse dangerous hallways, being chased by demons and when she dies she is instantly reborne and force to start over. In the end she becomes the new lord of hell(?) and can only be freed when another person performs the spell. Keep in mind that time in hell is longer than time on earth and by the end she's only been dead for a few minutes.
>>
>>323718249
I thought that SHE was bullied and tried summoning a demon to get back at her classmates, which backfired.

Persona 2 was worse.

>MC is punished for not wanting to give up all memories of his friends by being erased from the new world completely and forced to return to a world that was completely destroyed by Nyarlathotep

At least P3 MC has Ryoji keeping him company and Elizabeth actively trying to free him. They even gave her The Fool tarot card.

Also Bioshock 2 had a pretty depressing ending, depending on how you played. RDR's ending is depressing if you choose to kill the guy who betrayed Marston, since it renders his sacrifice pointless.

It's one of the two. A lot of that game is lost in translation. Half of Ritz's lines aren't even translated if you talk to him at one of the circles.

That's the translation I saw. She summoned a demon, it worked, and now she's trapped in hell.

Don't know about the lord of hell part though. As far as I know, the plot was

>Girl wakes up in hell
>Wanders around, finds a floating head who claims to help her
>Wanders around some more getting increasingly fucked up
>Finally beats what appears to be the big boss of hell
>Companion turns up
>"Lol by the way I've known all along - every time you die you get forced to relive all this shit. You're here because you used a spell and you won't get to leave for like an eternity, get fucked"
>Fight commences
>She wins
>It starts over again anyway...?

It's mostly clear up until the ending for me. Where did Ritz go? Can she ever actually escape? What were the shadows supposed to be, what were the hairpins, and who were the "they" Ritz talked about?
>>
>>323717598
>Was there ever a conclusive, explicit answer to how this ended?

No.

and there never should be it would defeat the purpose. You can assume they all died heroes or you could assume they where able to fight off the earthmen
>>
>>323721238
I think beating Ritz stopped him from crossing over from hell, but her fate stays the same no matter what happens.

>>323721543
I remember a mention of the only escape being when the world ends and hell comes to Earth, or something

>Maia's dying

>Fuck your bonds and your dreams.

There wasn't anything said directly, but there were some callbacks in Phantasy Star IV.

There are implications that the humans went and died.

For some reason I felt like the ending was kind of hopeful, like he had reached his nadir and now the only way to go was up. If anyone can find a way out of the Blood War it's TNO

I just wanna go home, with Berri, and I dunno, have a bottle of beer. Hmmm … it's not gonna happen.

I think the accompliceending was pretty fucking cool in P4G. The case is getting closer and closer to being solved and then suddenly everything stops and you just betray your friends. And when Narukami is leaving Inaba his friends are totally bummed out that they couldn't solve the case and the fog is still everywhere. And that moment when he is on the train and Adachi is on the tracks (pic related). I wish it was cannon
