Have you ever played a game that was absolutely phenomenal, but when you reached the ending, an extremely disappointing scene played out?

Dark Souls 1 definitely did that for me. Really not a big fan of both endings.

Honestly feel like a lot more people would have appreciated the subversion of expectations the devs were clearly going for… if not for Reaver. Give the player the time to realize that they can just shoot the monologuing asshole, don’t take that closure away from them by letting an NPC do it if they take too long.

I was able to appreciate it later. The villain was just an ordinary man after all, not a Hero. But yeah, the Reaver thing just ruined it.
