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.

    RAGE

    The whole game is a fun ass looter-shooter and it builds up the villain of General Cross of the Authority…

    …only for you to not even face him. You storm a base with an overpowered ass gun killing beginner mutant minions you could off with just a starter pistol and thats it. Thats literally it. BUT, the sequel lets you fight a big bad boss at the end of the game so theres that ig

    Rampage. NES. 255 levels. A 10 second black screen with black letters saying “Congratulations” then the game resets.

    Ghostbusters and Ghosts n Goblins for NES. Yes, I’m old. I remember slugging through Ghostbusters, which was terrible to begin with, and all you get is a congratulations screen, which contained two or three spelling errors. Ghosts n Goblins on the other hand was impossible, but I emulated it with cheat codes in my adult years. Only to discover that you had to beat it twice, and when you finally achieved the impossible (with infinite lives) you got a pathetic congratulations screen, also spelled wrong!

    Actually, Baldur’s Gate 3.

    I played it twice fully, over 300 hours in. The entire game is amazing, but the ending is just so short and anticlimactic. Even Larian admitted they cut a lot of stuff because they thought epilogue would be too long. Hopefully, they will add it back soon.

    Borderlands 1. The last vault with the treasure that turns out to be a bullet sponge creature who kills your nemesis to that point then credits. Tf. I remember I stood behind a rock/Pilar would pop out to shoot as it attempted to throw things at me.

    Gta 3. After you go through hell and back to save a “love interest” as the credits play you hear her talking over and over and over again until your character gets annoyed with her and kills her. Waste of my fucking time

        I liked the hidden ending of Far Cry 4 more than any of the real endings.
