The earliest thing I can think of would be my first time playing Halo. My cousin had brought his 360 and a copy of Halo 3 and asked my brothers and I if we wanted to play. We said yes, but none of us had ever played on an Xbox before nor ever played Halo before. He also wouldn't tell us what half of the buttons did so we were just flailing around while he mopped the floor with us. Suffice to say he was the only one having any fun that day.

Lost. A thousand times Lost. Though, I had been saying it for a while by then.


Also, a minor example, but Quantum Conundrum. A pretty fun game, full of quite intuitive and inventive puzzles, with a terribly underwhelming ending (or lack thereof). It just peters out.

The ending of the Deathly Hallows for sure I absolutely loathed the ending and epilogue it was such a shitty ending for me.
I think part of the reason for it was the fact that throughout the whole book Rowling was dropping beloved characters like flies so to have it end with such a twee ending was just a bad decision. After I had finished with it I vowed never to touch a Harry Potter book again which I kept until just recently
So you kept the vow right up until the next Harry Potter book (Presumably the Cursed Child) came out, which is not actually a novel, but a screenplay, which isn't Rowling's exclusive work and seemingly goes out of it's way to retroactively make things much worse?

But yeah, that ending was pretty bad. The film did it really badly, but even the book feels like the never ending camping trip. But it's totes ok, because after all that mucking about, we get to see that Harry has given his son a cringy fan-fiction name!
No I still haven't read it. It doesn't interest me at all. I did however reread the first four books to prepare for a Harry Potter trivia pub game.

Don't now if it was the first time I went BS on an ending, but I do remember getting pissed off at the end of Digimon Tamers.

Okay, so the protagonists have sent the D-Reaper packing and all seems well... until the partner Digimon start de-evolving and have to go back to the Digital World.

What. the. HELL?!

And no, I don't care that Takato found another portal, that doesn't help!

Yes, I know this season is "Darker and Edgier" than the rest, this just feels plain mean-spirited!

First? Dunno if I can recall.

Earliest that I can remember? Yeah, that's more doable.

While I kinda want to say Mass Effect 3, I was a lot more confused for quite a bit after that ended before moving onto 'this is bullshit'. So go with the final Divergent book.

Granted, these weren't good or enjoyable books, but at the end when
Tris dies, I got so pissed because out of all the media I've consumed (that hasn't focused on 'lol, no one is safe, anyone can die), THIS was the one that had the balls to kill off its main character.

I'm not sure if I can actually remember the 'first' one, but I can definitely remember the two biggest ones, and one of them was long enough ago that it might've been first but I don't recall.

Digimon season 2. Everything about that ending was horseshit. First off, the final villain is just Myotismon from season 1 again, which is seriously weak considering Myotismon wasn't even the biggest villain from season 1. Then his big villain plan is fairly non-threatening. And finally, they don't even beat him in a fight, they literally beat him with the power of positive thinking. Everybody thinks happy thoughts and it makes his body disintegrate. Like, wtf? That's bullshit. Even as a child I recognized that was utter bullshit. And then to add insult to injury, there's an epilogue after that where it shows all the characters in the future as adults, and none of their adult lives make any sense whatsoever, and frequently conflict with their personalities and character development throughout the show. Just... bullshit.

The other one that was definitely not first, but was pretty big was Batman: Arkham City. I've never been so disappointed by a game in my entire life, especially considering Arkham Asylum is one of my favourite games ever. Not only was Arkham City's gameplay not as good as I'd expected, but holy fuck that ending was garbage. The big villain plan that had been kept a super secret mystery all game and had been built up and hyped up all game was revealed and set in motion and... the entire plan is just for the army of military helicopters that have been flying around all game to start shooting at people. Just... what? Then it's all revealed to be a Ra's Al Ghul scheme, but it's not even a good Ra's scheme. Then he kills the main antagonist up to that point and then commits suicide in a mindbogglingly stupid way. THEN we get to a final, and fairly unnecessary confrontation with the Joker, except he's actually Clayface and that's our final boss. Clayface as the Joker's hired thug to pretend to be him. Weak. And THEN the actual ending has the Joker find a way to commit suicide that's somehow even more mindbogglingly stupid than Ra's and Batman cries over it. Also Batman is retarded and prioritized trying to save the Joker over trying to cure the thousands of people the Joker poisoned. And it's just... Even today I get absolutely fucking livid thinking about that game, and how the entire story was just such complete bullshit.

That's funny, I thought that ending was great. It captured the tone of the series fairly well. I loved seeing Henry turn around and shake his head at his father.

Ah. I'd successfully forgotten all about that.
I change my entry to this and curse you for reminding me of that garbage.

Yeah, honestly I'm surprised I'm the first person to bring that up.

Highlander 2.

I actually took a trip to stay with my brother for the weekend ALL centered around going to the movies together to share in this sequel to one of our favorite sci fi fantasy movies of all time.

*SIGH*

At least the rest of the weekend was good...

Maybe it did, but I thought it was pointlessly mean-spirited. As much as I like Digimon Tamers... at times it got too dark, even for me. Still, opinions, opinions.

And speaking of Digimon...

Fun fact, apparently the writers planned for the "Sorato" pairing to be a thing. For me... this was kinda awkward, especially as a "Taiora" shipper... though I've long since gotten over the ending, so...

Okay so as part of the official peace between the Humans and Machines, neither side are allowed to found new cities without approval of both the founding and location from the other side. In the Matrix Online the people of Zion don't trust the Machines to keep their word on the peace, so they found a new city. The Machines find out, and destroy Zion and most of the Matrix characters.

The more "fulfilling" ending to Tokyo Jungles' story mode has you play as a robot dog that was sent back in time with another robot dog to allow humans from the future to send themselves 200 years back in time to avoid a catastrophe that has destroyed the worlds ecosystem after they had already sent the people from 200 years in the past to the future (it's a bit complicated). The robot dog however has been literally raised by wolves and decides that it has more empathy for all the animals in Tokyo after learning that the humans will drive them out of the city once they return. So instead of doing the job it was literally built for it decides to go rouge, kill its' counterpart, and doom all of humanity so it can " live and die as a wolf".

It's even implied that doing so was completely pointless in game if you try to survive past 200 years.

How has nobody said Rage?

I was really enjoying that game, making fools fall down, driving around in that mad max style wasteland was enjoyable and all that cool shit but the story was building up to this big bad government, then it's like one mission kind of involving it and it ends ... what!?

It's like Shadows of Mordor, you have all this enjoyable gameplay but that last boss fight is just taken away from you with this weird QTE session. I was expecting him to have all the abilities I did or at least some to rival mine and we would be "blinking" past into each other like a DBZ fight etc

When I was young and thought there would only be 151 pokemons and Ash got beat in the Pokemon League and didn't win it.
I was mighty disapointed back then.
After that I have more and more started to root for stuff like that, that the main character wouldn't always win everything and so on.

Mass Effect 3.. Nuff' said.

Red Dead Redemption. Bullshit! I've gotten out of worse situations, many times! If they were going to make it a no win, at least go out and have a literal army out there. I mean this was John freakin' Marston. He was too much of a badass to lose to that many guys when he had a defensive position. Sure, he was worried about his family, but damn. That was so disappointing.

The ending for Monty Python and the Holy Grail was ballsy, and still kind of funny, but the lack the closure and completion never sat that well with me.

The Ending for "How I Met Your Mother" SPOILERS! ------ I think having to record the kid's dialogue before they aged out of the roles wrote them into a creative corner even if they didn't see it like that. And then he finds this sweet girl, who we only caught glimpses of so many times only to kill her off in a depressing montage, and then to circle back around to who we all thought it should have been just seemed like getting jerked around. For such a good show, that ending really pissed me off.

The ending to both Portal games. I wanted to know more of what happened, what was outside.

The answer is The Mist.

If people aren't saying it, they haven't seen it.
Ironically, Stephen King himself enjoyed the twist ending in the movie; and wished he'd came up with the idea himself.
