Okay, an ending like "hero fights bad guy and wins" is maybe a cliché (for me for sure not boring!), but you can't ignore most of the gamers they playing an RPG wish to be a hero!!
For me Larian make his own unexpected ending, very courageous for sure!
But I think Larian was still hoping to make good money with D II and don't destroy themselves!
Maybe a game with 2 or more possible endings will be a very great thing I believe, but also not necessary to make a great ending!!
Yesterday I was thinking also about another ending and maybe the "rebirth"-case will be a nice plan!?
Something like:
the "soul" of the hero lives futher after his/her body dies and the soul comes back to undergo a new adventure ! And the gamer can REplay and replay many times, each time his "soul" growing futher until his/her soul is ready to rest final in Heaven.
His/her soul have final done ALL things in lifes (in RPG-terms: doing All quests, killing all enemies, ... AND also his/her knowledge is totaly great, like a wise wizard or something).
