I would have to say that this is the first time I went to win a game...to lose in the end.
The presentation of the ending is the kicker. Why? We see that the first true hero (the Divine) had the same crap happen to them...thus, it presents a NO-WIN Scenario...the "Kobayashi Maru" of RPG's.
If there WAS a sense of maybe you can come back or you need to return somehow...then it would have been fine...or even to die would have been fine actually, and in a glorious way.
I was manipulated, fooled into believing through the whole game that I was spending my time to win...to only lose in the end.
Truly a BADLY done ending to me.
