Around the same, but maybe not as far as you in the story.
I spent too much time fusing

>True ending reveals plotholes

The game is based on a book so I think there's nothing much the developers could do about it

>game is seemingly a never-ending cycle
>secret ending allows you to break it

You're actually wrong

The SECRET ending for that game requires you to unlock expert mode which requires you to S rank every level in addition to getting all ten endings

Expert Mode you have to do the entire game with just 3 lives, no saves/continues, and the levels are harder.

>game has only one ending but it doesn't matter because the plot is so fucking convoluted and complex that you don't understand shit

>game has good ending and bad ending
>each ending brings up an issue the other ending would fix

if you think things are crazy now, you have another thing coming

Yes yes, inFAMOUS 2's only downside.

FATE has an anime for Saber route, Lily route, and the other route is coming soon. Heaven's Feel.

Would you ever go and fuck off Camilla?

what game

As long as the story is the better than the first one

S/SN has three storylines.
The second one results from Shirou stopping Saber from completely wrecking Archer's shit right at the very beginning.
The third one results from a chance encounter with his girlfriend's "grandfather" and him accidentally learning in an idle conversation that Shirou has nothing to do with his adoptive father's extended family.

Animu has gone nuts with these routes.

>first game has the protag kick the villain's ass so hard he fucks off
>second game has a different protag dealing with the same villain because that's where he fucked off to
>third game has another new guy who teams up with the first two guys to finish the villain off for good

Bravely second?

That is a really good quality tv.

KAIN REFUSED THE SACRIFICE

>playing on normal or above gets you the actual ending
>playing on easy gets you a generic congratulations picture and nothing more

Except it it isn't, its a sad but overall hopeful ending. The characters through some unknown way, or video game logic, survived the destruction of the nowhere islands and live to see a new future. Their was great loss but it's hopeful in that the new world will be peaceful.

Everytime I boot up the game it plays this creepy ass music and it just shows a dark house, then a popup message appears saying "IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT"

I'm still mad.

It's story first. The porn is added for sales and sales only. Once fate became popular enough to stand on its own, Type Moon basically has pretended that the porn parts don't exist.

Literally and figuratively Metal Gear Solid 1, there's no way otacon could leave Shadow Moses alone

The awful thing is, the Blacklight Virus was a far better person than the real Alex Mercer ever was. Despite being a completely inhuman abomination, he still did the right thing and saved everyone even willingly sacrificing himself to do so. And then the sequel just goes "Nope, he's evil. Go kill him".

Fuck that shit. I actually really liked him. He was a good protagonist. A demonstration of the idea that a person's fate is not determined by what they are, or where they came from. And then they just threw all that away for no fucking reason.

Persona's probably something like this if you think beyond the scope of the game

it's not a big deal for a game as short and simple as portal

>second game does not do anything with the cliffhanger
>in fact there's a character you can talk to and he'll mention the first game's cliffhanger and then say the situation was easy to resolve

All the parts tie in from each other. The hero of part 2 is the grandson of the hero of part 1, fighting the people responsible for the creation of the villain from part 1. The hero of part 3 is the grandson of the hero of part 2, fighting the new-and-improved villain from part 1. The hero of part 4 is the uncle of the hero of part 3, facing off against the force that's responsible for making the villain of part 1/3 new-and-improved. The hero of part 5 is the son of the villain from part 1/3, fighting against the man responsible for finding the aforementioned force that made part 1/3's villain new-and-improved. The hero of part 6 is the daughter of the hero of part 3, fighting against the close personal confidant of the villain of part 1/3, who is trying to finish the villain's evil plan after his death.
It's this huge story that spans a couple of hundred years, and it all ties into itself quite wonderfully. And then part 7 does a continuity reset, and then part 8 plays off of the continuity reset and off of the original continuity, and shit gets even more complicated. Yet no matter how complicated it gets, everything still fits together perfectly. For a series that has now been running for decades, it's incredible how well executed it is. There's a reason it's so damn popular in japan.

PER..SO..NA!!!

>all endings are canon and they all happened simultaneously, even the ones that contradict each other
Fucking elder scrolls

If niko's gender is ambigious, does that mean he/she can be both?

I think they mention that snake and Meryl slept around for a bit but split up due to differences

Daggerfall, with the 'endings' addressed in a Morrowind book.

Actually in the codec call at the end of MGS1 Snake mentions that a helicopter later picked up Otacon if you pick the Meryl ending.

How does that apply? I'm willing to be spoiled desu.

>part 5
>man responsible for finding the aforementioned force that made part 1/3's villain new-and-improved

???

Deus Ex: had 3 endings, sequel made all canon by making one ending cause all 3.

Human Revolution: you have 3 endings to choose from, the sequel does not clarify which ending is canon.

OneShot: been mentioned several times ITT - you can only get one ending before the game permanently deletes itself from your hard drive.

Dishonored: good and bad ending, neither ending will be truly canon in sequel (that is, the canon ending will be a mix of good and bad).

Portal: the ending was changed in a patch for the sequel.

>Supposed perfect ending
>You'll still never save him

kek
tetris

La pucelle in a way

>The normal end is the most fucked up ending in the game.

no that's gross

The villain from part 1 is a vampire. The villains from part 2 created the artifact that made him into a vampire. In part 3, the villain from part 1 comes in contact with a different artifact that greatly enhances his powers and gives him the ability to stop time at will for everyone but himself. In part 5, his son enters conflict with the man responsible for finding and selling the latter artifact, and who has used similar artifacts to create a massive criminal organization.

I think the implication of the ending was supposed to be that the story is out of your control now, but I was still kinda mad.

Overall still a great game but fuck me that was a frustrating way to end it.

all 3 are canon senpai

Black Ops 2 did this.

You had to kill your best friend to prevent all out war because having him around at a later point would have fucked up a critical event.

> The characters through some unknown way, or video game logic, survived the destruction of the nowhere islands and live to see a new future.
Its because everyone was living in New Pork City, which is a flying fortress. Almost nobody stayed behind on the surface when it got fucked up.

Porky accidentally saved everyone.

Absolute truth.

Anders is great, Bioware just ruined his character for no reason.

Undertale. It's canon within the game's story that you'll eventually reset and get the Genocide ending after getting the True ending.

>The hero of part 4 is the uncle of the hero of part 3, facing off against the force that's responsible for making the villain of part 1/3 new-and-improved.

there's 4 endings unless you're talking about the "true" ending, you have to get all 3 endings to unlock it

>Game has multiple endings, the one you save the girl leaves you depressed as fuck cause you realize how fucking lonely they/you are

For me both Dark Souls endings are canon, Age of Dark ending starts the events that lead up to Dark Souls 2, and rekindling the fire starts Dark Souls 3.

I hate up-in-the-air game lore but Dark Souls gets a pass.

Cliff Bleszinski?

i'm not him, just a bystander
don't rude, please

>Thinking that everything refers back to your online babysitter/fake friend substitute

fuck off to your subreddit

The "Saber Route" adaptation is a (shitty) mash up of all 3 routes, though.

The porn scenes are honestly pretty pathetic. They break the flow of the story and make 0 sense. One scene happens when they've just barely escaped death, but are still highly at risk of being pursued. So they stop in a run down cottage and fuck to "transfer mana".

>The writers were incesivie so the sequels start is a mashup of all the endings combined

>game has multiple endings
>sequel is set hundreds/thousands of years later so it doesn't matter what was the canon ending

what game?

also
>seeing of the game makes it seem like a prequel showing the events of a scene from the first game
>turns out it's a sequel

except the only bow & arrow is in custody after beating Red Hot Chill Pepper.

>Tfw proper Saber route never
>Last Episode OVA never either
It'll always hurt

...

Sakura's sex scenes gave me a boner, at least.

>Age of Dark ending starts the events that lead up to Dark Souls 2, and rekindling the fire starts Dark Souls 3.
this is completely wrong

dark souls 1, dark and kindle endings both lead to dark souls 2, either prolonging or causing a dark age before endless light rebirth cycles happen over time

dark souls 3 happens cycles after dark souls 2

>Ending where you fuck up is canon
>It's the same thing in the sequel

fucking metro man

No it isn't you fucking idiot, there is no "canon" ending.
The genocide route is the furthest thing from canon as is.

>except the only bow & arrow is in custody after beating Red Hot Chill Pepper.
So you're saying I just imagined the entire second half of part 4 where Kira's dad is flying around creating more stand users with the second bow and arrow?

>Bad ending is canon leading into the second game
>Second game's good ending is canon leading back to the first game
>First game's good ending leads to the third game

>what game?
Kirby Superstar Ultra, Return to Dreamland, Triple Deluxe, and Planet Robobot.

Kirby has suprisingly deep lore.

>it's a multiplayer game
>you can be on the route to a good ending then a bad player fucks up and you get the bad ending instead

>He did it on purpose to grief you

FUCK YOU YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE

>So you're saying I just imagined the entire second half of part 4 where Kira's dad is flying around creating more stand users with the second bow and arrow?

I guess they did not get to that part yet in the anime. Next episode for me is Sheer Heart Attack part 2

Settle down, faggot, I thought you meant a real game otherwise I never would have bothered.

>one ending has you killing all non-humans and degenerates
>somehow this is considered the worst ending instead of the best ending

talos principle?

???

I've never seen a game that does this

Wow. The last Kirby game I played was Return to Dream Land, and that was when it came out.

How do I get back into the franchise?

>anime only fags

cancer that's killing jojos and turning it into the new MLP.

Gears of War 3, kinda.

If you bought a 'Carmine Lives' or 'Carmine Dies' t-shirt it cast a vote.

Whichever got the most votes determines if Carmine lived or died.

That faggot CliffyB wanted him to die but the fans said NOPE and he lived.

Live forever Carmine; I hope his kids or even the 4th Carmine brother are in Gears 4.

To be fair, they adapted Saber's best possible end: UBW's Good End. The one where her, Rin, and Shirou all fuck like rabbits to keep her from fading away.

Re-read what sans says, familia. The timelines all end, eventually, after constantly being reset. They end because your character destroys them through the ending of the Genocide route. The only way for it to not be canon, is for you to not learn the information I just said by opening the cat box that is observing that ending.

That's the best.

Can I have a/some examples?

>ending locked behind a bunch of cryptic shit you would never know about unless you checked the wiki

You aren't looking hard enough, user

youtube.com/watch?v=_0DNGqFy2_w

>You need to get the bad ending first to get the good ending

She's the worst girl with the worst route anyway so who cares.

>Ending requires you to play the game through three times for relatively mundane endings
>It's a fucking acid trip of an ending that sends you on a spiralling descent of madness and guilt

This weird dream again?

Or the timelines end because the player just stops fucking playing.

You can really just choose between Robobot and Triple Deluxe. Robobot is usually seen as the better of the two, but Triple Deluxe is still fun. Only reason I would say to get TD first is because Robo would spoil a little bit of TD. If you played Superstar already, Robobot is gonna be a treat.

mass effect does it technically, in that every shit tier outcome is default if you dont import

...

Ow the edge did this if I'm not mistaken.

>To be fair, they adapted Saber's best possible end: UBW's Good End.
I see you're a man of culture as well, but I still hold in high regards Last Episode, I mean getting to live in some literal paradise with your waifu sounds pretty fucking cool.

care to explain what I am looking at?

They're alright.

>game has a bittersweet ending
>roll credits
>after credits scene shows one of the characters talking with the one above all, discussing this world's will to resist timed extermination that has been a constant for eons
>the one above all decides to play a little bit more and starts shining and the character starts freaking out

>with this feeling they have the chance to improve the final conclusion

>do easy mode
>you only get to play 30% of the game and you are called a cuck and told to play on medium

You'd have a point if it weren't for the fact the game goes out of it's way to tell you that, after the true/neutral endings, they continue on with their life until you reset. In the context of the story, of course. See: Flowey's talk after you load up the game post-True ending.

Maybe, but there isn't much for Shirou to do there (other than Saber). I could see him getting stir-crazy not being able to be a hero. Still better than Saber's normal ending, though.

That sounds pretty dope, what game is it?

>2nd game ends on a cliffhanger
>3rd game will never happen because clover is dead

The game ends the same way it begins

>care to explain what I am looking at?

Zombie Escape is a 64-player mode in counter-strike source

the map in question, ze_taboo, has two endings. a good ending and a bad ending

good ending is when you defend the NPC and stop the nuke launch

bad ending is where you fail to stop the nuke launch and hide in a bunker somewhere

the stakes are high because this is the second half of the map and there are NO SECOND CHANCES. The map is very hard and you only have one chance. If you die it's back to level one.

>ALL the endings are canon

FUCK YOU 2033, DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD I WORKED TO GET THAT FUCKING ENDING

>game never tells you if you're heading for a good or bad end
>bad end deletes every NPC in the game and replaces every texture with a hellish version of itself then forces you to delete your save if you want another go

what happened

>Game never ends with a proper ending. it just becomes DLC hell until they release Game 3 to jew people more.

>first game ends on a cliffhanger
>the remainder of the series never got translated

Didn't Last Episode takes place after Shirou had already a taste of the Archer life? He sounded pretty tired and the only thing he looked forward to was meeting her again. Wonder if you can leave Avalon after stumbling there.

except it looks like the helicopter exploded and the map ended

>he's eating her and then he's going to eat me!
>OH MY GAAAAAAAAWWWD

kek

Ahh VJ, I love that game, but holy shit does it piss me off that there will never be a 3rd game.

>none of the endings are canon

>The game becomes self aware

Lufia 2 for DS

>open file
>change a few numbers
lmao get fucked bitch

...

I still yearn for the day this gets fully translated

>final boss fight is unbeatable

I don't think he lived as a counter-guardian, but he lived as a hero yeah. I think the only stipulation was that he lived his life always pursuing the chance to see her again.

The best part is the scene where she shows up, the protagonist gets cu.cked himself, decides he's ok with it because he loves the new girl too much, and eats the jizz out of her snooch.

You've seen the only scene that makes the game noteworthy.

B-but user, muh double trouble

While not quite it, starseige

The game heavily retcon the other games in the meteltech universe. It actually begins as "THE THIRD AND FINAL COMING OF THE BAD GUY", but then ends with "Lol I ain't really dead. I'll be back"

Then the series shifts to tribes, which is a massive change in genre and setting. Might as well be a reboot

>You have to play the game in New Game Plus to get the Good/True Ending
sometimes the Good Ending is the Non-Canon Ending

>good ending is the MC killing himself for everyone to be ok
>Tactics Ogre
>fucking Shining Force

Maybe her butt hurts?

don't listen toget yourself a DS emulator, DeSmume or Drastic (android) and then play Super Star Ultra, then return to dreamland. You can skip Triple Deluxe but skipping a Kirby game is just stupid. They're short and easy enough. Then play Planet Robobot. PR has way too many refrences to previous games that you won't get the full enjoyment outta it.

After that just play other Kirby games that you are interested in, such as Dream Land 3, Mass Attack, Crystal Shards and whatever else.

>bad ending becomes canon two or more games later

don't listen toIF you're memory is fuzzy on the previous Kirby games, get yourself a DS emulator, DeSmume or Drastic (android) and then play Super Star Ultra, You can skip Triple Deluxe but skipping a Kirby game is just stupid so just play it anyway (though you may want to play Dream Land 2 again if you decide to play Triple Deluxe). They're short and easy enough. Then play Planet Robobot. PR has way too many refrences to previous games that you won't get the full enjoyment outta it.

After that just play other Kirby games that you are interested in, such as Dream Land 3, Mass Attack, Crystal Shards and whatever else.

Mount and Blade

What game?
Looks like a weird rhythm game on crack

Portal?

FUCK. I hate this shit

3 hours late but Infamous did this as well

More people had the achievement for beating the campaign as a hero so they continued 2 like that.

I am pretty curious how the sequel would of gone if you were a cunt

>reboot has no ending
>there isn't even a story mode
>just multiplayer

Drakenguard 3

>You die in the ending
>You die in real life

games that went F2P almost all do this

fucking tribes for one

The poster said Taiko San Jiro, a spinoff of another taiko drum game.I only know of it from those that played that DoD boss and thought, "can we make it worse?". It doesn't have notes you have to hit when you can't see the character, or where the screen goes black, though.

>More people had the achievement for beating the campaign as a hero so they continued 2 like that.
That's how it was decided? That's fucking lame.

>two endings are canon, but there are four endings
>the canon endings are also only canon to two different games
Although I think by now, we might as well just say that D was canon and 2 never happen.

>Not liking Daggerfall

it's "ambiguous" in the sense that what happens next isn't spelled out. throughout the game you win battles but lose the war, blowing what was supposed to be your last chance, with the ending offering "maybe next time things will work out"

doesn't new pork city show up in the scenes of the world being destroyed? you + your friends are also all in that cave, and everyone seems to be present at the end - with no time elapsing it seems they were transported somewhere

>remake adds a bad ending

>it's not even good compared to the GOLDEN SUPER HAPPY ending that is also added in the remake

What game?

>Game has two ending
>One is easy as fuck to get, the other one needs a perfect playthrough to get
>Go through the game to get perfect ending
>It was all for nothing

Death of the author. This is how it should be.

>Game requires precise instructions to beat
>Ending has titular character make fun of you for taking the game so seriously

>ending is determined by RNG

that's not what "death of the author" means

>true ending is locked behind dlc

I hope Capcom is glad that Nirvana was at least some fucking good shit.

>Dev makes a vague statement like "the sequel is going to be up to fans"

Postmodernism is cancer

>Villain is a jaded and tired asshole who just wants to kill himself and destroy the universe after endless cycles of war

>You return god-slaying sword or whatever to Goddess that helped you
>No more wars
Bad Ending
>The Big Bad is dead
>You start war against gods
>Hype as fuck ending slides
>No sequel

Hotline miami 2

>ShadOW THE EDGEhog had over 500 "unique" endings

>remake makes the bad ending where you join up with the big bad "just a bad dream"

>first game had routes for specific characters
>sequel went goes of its way to call some of those non-canon

This is literally the only fight in the entire game with that mechanic.

wow they went to Tokyo again?

>the game literally just starts over after the ending sequence
>you don't realize that immediately

I don't about post modernism, but it just makes sense. The intentions of the creator don't have the power to change your feelings.

>ending is so bad it ruins the entire game retroactively

you know what it is

Metal Gear?

>Bad ending is canon
>Ending of sequel has protagonist go back in time to make the good ending canon

Is this an actual game?

They updated the ending to have Chell get carried away by a robot and put back into the facility

XCOM 2 because most people lost their first campaign.

Shadow Hearts + Shadow Hearts Covenant

Yes it is. The readers interpretation is what matters. If the reader (or player in this case) decides one ending is the true ending than nothing the creator says or does changes that.

>The main character survived through impossible odds and ending but got killed in a canon book.

man mob of the dead was a great zombies map

>every body making a big deal about the books and that they've done to the lore, universe, etc
>next game comes out and has stuff that directly contradicts all the books because none of the devs even knew the books existed and don't care

star wars

>any movie or game series that got novels

Fixed.

>Main character can fend off swarms of enemies with advance civilization in games
>Got finished off by a couple space ISIS in a book
Why

Star Ocean 3. I will never stop being mad.

?what is mass effect

The second WoW expansion was literally this.

>bad ending isnt canon but in the long run was the better ending

>ending is canon
>sequel comes out that's a prequel
>mid-way through the timeline changes
>prequel causes first game to become non-canon

to be fair infamous 2's good ending is much better than the evil end

>implying that was a secret

Not really they only bullshit part is knowing how to make her appear I'll give you that, that or somehow killing the spy by mere chance

What people saw: It was all a dream
What actually happened: Toys managed to ascend, meaning The King is now ready to take over the real world

I love that the endings got progressively worse and bizarre. Usually its the other way around.

How many different ways can we have an apocalypse?

Till we bring the apocalypse into an entirely different world.
