Games with terrible endings
McTaggart:
I could have sworn that I'd had a rant about freelancer in this thread before. The gist of it is that I'm not even sure that I did finish it, but I'm pretty sure I ran out of story so I think I did. It's wierd though because there's a whole lot more world to explore and there is background to it and what looked like it could be a neat twist and a tie in with other games, but I just never got to it story-wise. I'm gonna have to borrow that game once again, just to be sure.
Scruffy:
Exactly!
/Right now I'm pretending Mass Effect is the other half of Freelancer. It's working out nicely, even if it is delusional.
McTaggart:
Ok, so I played through Freelancer again. Wow, I forgot just how rich that world was. Unfortunately it just made it all the more disappointing when you complete the last mission and they just throw you back out into the world as though nothing had even happened. The other main character says something about "There'll be a lot of re-building to do back home" in the final cutscene. There isn't. You spawn back on Planet Manhattan and nothing has changed.
Well, I suppose at least they've left us with some great prime fiction for a sequel or other games unrelated except that they happen in the same world. There's a lot more potential here left to be explored.
TheReaper:
Dunno if anyone mentioned this, but http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AWinnerIsYou pretty much every game on that list. Some I've played, most I just read through and got annoyed at.
Orbert:
Wow, that's quite a list. Nice of him to elucidate exactly what the deal was with all of them. (Kinda makes this thread irrelevant though, which is kinda sad.)
