Finnishing the game last night as The Dark Urge choosing both last options left me feeling very disapointed and kind of starved. Seeing how none of the choices I made in Act 1 and 2 as well as the relationships I build with my companions had practically no impact at the end of the game. No hate to Larian Studios, I loved the entire gameplay the emotional (and morlall) rollercoaster it gave me. I give the game a 10/10. But the ending.......
I just feel like endings should be more immersive and be more impacted by at least the relationships.
For example I romanced Astarion as The Dark Urge and chose the most evil route I could with Astarion ascending. I just loved how my character and him had those little conversations about them ruling the world TOGETHER and prommising eachother eternal love and ownership of one another... And all I see at the end of the game (choosing the taking control of the brain option) is my character alone on the brainly throne taking control of ALL of his companions minds.
I feel like this just didnt give justice to the entire romance and ascendant Astarion's role in all of this evil plot thing?
When it comes to the "good game ending" it also was very lacking and felt a little like a slap in the face. Like the game just said "oh thanks for saving the city and people, anyways THATS IT BYE". Cause' again it felt like none of the friendships and the impact I had on the characters was completely left out. Like we just get a scene of leaving off to the city and then Karlach death scene, and in this playthrough she dissaproved most of my choices and even told me she would kill me once but still in her finall moments she told me she adored me. Makes no sense to me.
I just wished to see all of the companions growth (including my character and their hearts chosen) after some time after the events of the game, just like what they're up to or just how they're doing.
Im hoping this gets changed.
