Almost a year later. This song still hits me right in the feels. It's just so quiet... and yet so saddening because you know that either way, you lose.
I wouldn't really call the two choice endings "bad", you become a god and grant your pawn true life in one and in the other one the arisen does what I feel he/she would've wanted to do from the start; go home. Besides, we don't even know what happens to seneschals when they're replaced, and inevitably our arisen will be replaced.
Live a false life while everyone is suffering in the real world without your help or live forever being god and being unable to interact with anyone. To me these are terrible choices.
Go home. That's it right there I think. Why this game hits you so hard in the guts at the end. That's all we ever want throughout our whole lives. Just to go home, back to everything simple and joyful that we lost. Play just once more with our best friends, run one last time in the summer of our hometown, see the smile of a mother, of a father, who aren't with us anymore.
@@sparten2015 Pretty much it. And to add to that, the ending of going for a peaceful life just goes through the dark, where the Seneschal has to wait for someone else by throwing another dragon at the world to find a successor and for all we know the next dragon attack will come by in a few decades considering Duke Edmund's age appearance before and after the dragon is slain. And with godhood, one should remember that even the Seneschal shows that their will can only go so far in wanting to keep going before wanting to die.
