i just beat the game, and i am kinda sad about it, i want to see more of the relationship of my character and his companions post ascension (or lack of). saying goodbye to the red prince and lohse was terribly sad, who else felt this?

I know it was for me as well, maybe they will make an expansion set or something.

The ending kinda leave a bad taste in my mouth with how the romance suddenly ends so that the narrator can give my char the recorded open ending narration.

After all the time with the Red Prince, the game doesn't offer me the choice to just go live with him in the Ancient Empire. Just the generic "I'll remember the fond moments" type of goodbye. It would have been perfect if they actually add a romance-based ending narration at the end instead of going "WHAT YOU DO MAN WHAT YOU DO UP TO YOU WHAT YOU DO".

to be honest, is hard to take the ending so seriously when it is really tongue in cheek parody. Stuff like what happend to Justinia and that vendor you saved is just down right hilarious.

I felt the disconnect between my final chat with Sebille on the ship and the ending narration. I asked her what she wants to do next and she said that it completely depends on what I am planning to do next because we are in love and she is not going anywhere without me, and then the narration said that she went to travel the world.

It was good, honestly not much to be expected out of outro. First game outro was beefier, but overall it was the same "was nice working with you, now we go do our shit."

They could at least make the romance dialogue better instead of just "YEAH THAT WAS A GOOD NIGHT HAHAHA".

So much for the "let's do it again later. I hunger for you." convo in Arx.

Just add the option for the player to bed the romance partner as a way to end the game with some funny dialogue like the Red prince mentioning how there will be no wine this time or something. At least that will leave me a lot less salty because the current epilogue steps all over the heart of the game that most players will actually care about, the companions.

Considering that the level cap is 30 or something and you can only reach 22 or 23 at best atm, likely.

But with how the game currently works, I really doubt they can just add random stuff here and there since there are 4 ways to end the game and how the race will affect the game ending too.

The only kind of expansion they can probably make is a "Before Fortjoy" story of each char, like Red Prince and his boredom.

The whole ending confuses me about the canon of Divinity.

Does Divinity 2 (Dragon Knight Saga) even happen now or is it retconned and this is where Larian is building from now?

You can even replace lucian, thats abit lore destroying consider lucian was still a divine in Divinity 2.

Just saying, not a big deal to me personally.

I actually find it that funny after I say goodbye to everyone, it probably makes a better ending than the current epilogue for me to just find a spot to hide from everyone eye on that ship and start chugging all the poison bottle I have in my inventory and just kill myself.

It's not even out of character at that point, for without love, even the divine rather die.

I lone wolfed it with lohse and my own player made character. Right at the end of the game she died in the last fight and I didn't have a revival scroll to pick her up. After my badass knight cleaned up the rest of the guys he ascended. After that I was on the boat and I didn't see her, the ending never mentioned her at all. It looked like she was gone and was actually dead. Given the cathartic mood of the ending it actually fit really well and made me really sad.

did you kill sadha during his quest or let her live and take the dragonling?


i would like to know if he just has the same ending regardless of decisions made throughout the story (excluding the endgame decisions like ascending) or if it's different depending on what happens during his personal quest

I let her live and get the dragonling. I'm sure the ending will be different as I assume the game triggers what ending narration you get based on the quest journal After all, if Sadha is dead, he can't be a dragon daddy as mentioned in the ending.

I actually considered going into the game and secretly kill Sadha before going for the last boss but considering how he dreams for so long to have dragon children, I rather have my char commit suicide in secret after they say goodbye than to have him suffer in the name of love. Too painful to go and try it out so someone else will have to do it.

I may be a min-maxer but I take companion and relationship very seriously to the point I will quit a game mid way if it's poorly written.

If I knew NTR was a thing here, I wouldn't even finish the game to save me from the pain and just stick to drawing fanart of the journey along the way as I work on my own stories.

I wonder if the whole epilogue is moddable.
