Going with Fallout 3 as well. Worst. Ending. Ever.
Lyons: One of us must enter and die via massive radiation poisoning to save the day.
Me: Well, let Fawkes do it - he's immune to radiation.
Fawkes: Not my destiny, bro.
Me: I saved your life. Multiple times. I single-handedly cleared a vault full of super mutants just to get to you. You are literally condemning me or Lyons to death for something that wouldn't take you more than five seconds to do, and would not harm you in any way whatsoever.
Fawkes: Your destiny, not mine.
Me: /quitgame
I SAVED YOU FROM GETTING EATEN ALIVE BY OTHER SUPER MUTANTS FAWKES, YOU UNGRATEFUL SOB.

In recent memory the ending of Fable 3 felt quite anti climactic. I mean they spend so much time setting up the scene for the big evil demonic black force to come and attack Albion and you are urged to get ready for the fight of your life.
But then when you finally get to it....
Yeah it was a bit of a drag... still there might be worse endings out there but this is the one that sticks out for me.

Nothing, you walk out of the castle and it's already there. You don't see it invade, you see no army fighting it and you don't go anywhere other than a few feet through the streets of Bowerstone. It then infects your mentor, you fight him, he dies and then I get told that the evil world consuming monster was defeated.
Seriously? That's all it took?
Let's not forget how afterwards everyone cheered me on for how great a leader I was and how I had saved the kingdom and was a greater leader than any kingdom could hope for.... yeah tell that to the multiple millions of innocent people who died because I failed to protect them

Actually Obsidian has kinda had a history of massively buggy products right off the bat. I heard Neverwinter Nights 2 had a bug where it would crash almost right in. Alpha Protocol had a mass amount of flaws that if corrected could have saved it. Then there is the sheer madness of Fallout NV right out the gate. Personally I forgive them though because I love their work regardless of bugs.My name is Fiction said:
I was talking about there story's, the bugs are bad but I'm luck and don't run into them.80Maxwell08 said:
For anyone who played the tolerable plot and alright combat to the end, dodging past the save erase bugs and the general hardcore gameplay mechanics (permanant character deaths) and full size overworld map with awkward fast travel...
Ayden Chronicles: The First Mage
Image actually getting into a sub par game and enjoying yourself and the pretty good story for... for THAT ending.
Worth a look on google anyway but only those that played it know its devilish nature.

Borderlands (without DLS) After all the fucking around killing shit you end up
But for the rest I really love Borderlands.
fighting a giant squid and after that you get a pissy reward and a common wooden sniper
But for the rest I really love Borderlands.
RAAAAAAARGH!!! Juist reading the game's title had me foaming at my mouth. I still think the first game was a fantastic experience, the second one fucked absolutely everything, EVERYTHING up by explaining every fucking thing in the most boring, clichéed, overused and predictable way possible. What happened to subtility in games? Ghaaa... the rage is uncontrollable!!!LawlessSquirrel said:
When compared to the first game, I'd regard it as almost criminal. Kotor 2's ending probably ranks as one of my worst; its so anticlimactic after the wholeTroublesome Lagomorph said:
fight on the Ravager with Nihlus and his hordes of loyal soldiers. Then the game goes "oh by the way that's not the end" and you have this whole crappy bit with the Trayus Academy which is basically room after room after room of the same enemies. The Sion penultimate fight is lame because he is so easy and then Traya has the ridiculously annoying floating lightsabers. At the end it just doesn't feel like its building up to anything, more its winding down.
I played this one before KOTOR (no idea why), so when I played the original, I was like "Why couldn't 2's ending have been this good?"

I never finished Dragon Age: Origins because the bit at the end was just being mired down by the whole political intrigue and repetitive "kill X million enemies to proceed" sections at the end, which I felt was a shame because the game had been really good (with the exception of the dream world bit) up until then.
MW2 takes the biscuit though with the "change the main villain" tactic near the end. *face-palm*
Valkyrie Profile ending B. Noncommital, as you neither did Best nor Worst. On paper, it is an ending. In practice, you would hurl your controller across the Rainbow Bridge and cry bitter tears of lament for not siding with those who would see Asgard in ruin.
Neverwinter Nights 2: OC.
And before mentioning MoTB, I (and a lot of other people) played when it wasn't out, so it doesn't count.It still sucked.
Rocks fall. Everybody dies.

Definately borderlands.
CHASE THIS AMAZING VAULT OF AWESOME!
HERE IT IS!
lame boss fight, no awesome gadgets and wealth. end.
Fallout 3 may be forced, but it beats the crap out of borderlands.
As an extra get out for fallout - What say we move the button away from the deadly radiation and turn it on from out here?

EXACTLY! The first game was excellent because the major points weren't explained, you were just caught up in the middle of everything. My interpretation was that everything 'supernatural' that happened was symbolic of Ethan going insane, and that the boss was just a clever way of symbolising human hatred (which is why Ethan had to overpower it). Whether or not that was canon didn't matter, it made sense and I liked it that way. The important thing is that it COULD have been that, because they left it interpretive.Xerosch said:
But the crap they came up with to explain everything...oh God, what were they thinking!? The gameplay improved, but they ruined a good thing by trying to make the story obvious and devoid of mystery and interpretation. It's like if Twilight was the sequel to Pan's Labyrinth.
I really, really hope that game gets a remake. Not the first one, that's fine, but unless they retcon the events of the second game, the series is dead. It's not a common move, but it seems needed in this case.
I grabbed that game on a whim when it came out, never regretted it. Great game, unfortunately overlooked. I never did beat that last boss though, guess that's probably a good thing.Onimaruanji said:
I'd play it again if it were backwards compatible...
