MAJOR SPOILERS BE HERE

I just finished the game, and I'm fucking pissed with the ending choices.

After 5 minutes of end-game dialogue with Lucian and Dallis, exposition all around about his purpose and what he wanted to do, and giving me dialogue options to choose to sacrifice myself to repair the veil, the game ends with a simple A/B choice of claiming divinity or not - no veil repair, no interaction with Lucian or Dallis, just party members.

What the fuck happened to repairing the veil? You gave me dialogue and options to pick it, Lucian was still around after Braccus dies - what the fuck happened to him? Why would the god-king suddenly APPEAR OUT OF NOWHERE? Why didn't he do that to begin with if he could?? How is it that he can suddenly just grab Divinity in front of ALL OF US GUARDING IT?

Why am I even allowed to CHOOSE to let the god-king win and subjugate everyone?


Jesus christ Larian for a first time player of your games this is infuriating! Why throw the ball down and go home right at the end of the game? Why bait and switch the ending like that? SO MANY HOLES THAT DON'T MAKE SENSE

Yeah we agree.
Just finished this long beautiful journey with a friend. We coop'ed it all the way, growing fond of the world. Each member of our party specilized in what could help the party the most. Everything was well layed out and very enjoyable. The quests were great, we had discussions about them - but we always managed to find a way we both could agree on, you know, that compromise-thing when there are two opinions so you can get on with things.
And then we met: "the end" or as you might also call that idea of an ending:"s.o. really needs to read not only Hobbes, but the newer stuff aswell (no, Locke is not the latest stuff either)".
The blatant ignorance shown in that ending is appalling to say the least.
And ofc it tainted the experience a lot.
