OK, the first time to the end wasn't so bad; kill Braccus and it goes to the cutscene. OK, Malady made me mortal again. Seems like the best ending. But there are basically four possibilities with subsets possible: side with Dalis (the one I did), side with the God King, side with Adramalich, or side with yourself. In the last game, I sided with myself and there is an impossible to win battle. No tactics as you are automatically bunched up which results in all magic armor being demolished at the very beginning. The supposedly super sword barely makes a dent on Lucian (can't overpower - your armor is weakened to very low prior to a possible use). This was with my strongest player who specialized in two-handed and warfare. So, since it seems to be yet another try 50 times and maybe you'll get lucky ending like the Dragon Knight Saga what I'd like to do is the same as I did with that (but I can't find it on the net) - watch the end scenes and skip the final boss fight. Can someone direct me to a way to do this?

I will continue as the game is fun like the others until the very end fight that is just too tedious for me. I will still play as Fane (and side with the God King) and again as Lohse (but side with the demon). Fane has two endings but it isn't worth a complete new playthrough IMO. So, can I see these final "this is what happeneds"?

If you unlink your characters, you can position them better before triggering the dialogue before the end fight. Sneak at the top of the stairs to have more room to move around. If you have a ranger there are places you can get for a high ground advantage for part one of the fight. If you do damage fast enough, you can skip the second part of the fight (ie Rain + Thunderstorm).

There should be end cutscenes on Youtube playthroughs. The details depend on choices and events earlier in the game, as well as the options at the end, so it may be easier to use something like the Cheat Commander mod before the final section to level up and boost attributes and skill levels, etc.

Thanks but, even unlinked, they all bunch up. I know this game well enough to sense when a battle is coming (although I do still get fooled sometimes) so I did that the first try and I suppose I could retreat right away then come in on my terms since there's a nearby way point (I think). Yeah, I put my two archers on the top of the steps and my mage in the middle and well back from the meeting spot (which required them to be unchained) but they still all bunched up when the conversation started and I even tried moving them during the conversation but all are tagged for it so it isn't possible. I checked Youtube but, as you said, they were all final battles and I couldn't tell if the end scenes were even included. Does cheat commander allow "god mode"? That'd be the quickest way. That is assuming I'm adept enough to even figure out how to use the mod smile .

Cheat Commander doesn't have a god mode (there is a CheatEngine table for the game which might still work with the current version; last I checked it was fairly out of date, and a couple of the functions no longer worked). However, it can boost character levels, add attribute and skill points, skill books and equipment sets at the current character level.
