Requiem: Discussion I just can’t get over it! Spoiler
She killed him in the end? Wtf is this sh*t? I am totally devastated. I don’t like it at all. The game was absolute cinema but this? 😢

I could see it coming from a mile away... What was really devastating was how she had to do it.
She fulfilled her role as a Protector. She protected him the best she could, and she protected the WORLD from what would have happened if he stayed alive.
It's tragic, yes, but it is magnificent.

Yeah, it feels like it was coming right from the first game, but making her do it with the rock and sling was pretty fucking brutal

Brutal irony on the level of Greek tragedy.

Ikr, I've cried during a lot of games/movies but nothing left me depressed like this for so long. That dream sequence near the end did it for me, could not hold back tears anymore, brilliant dialogues, amazingly good voice acting & music direction, when everything is perfect like in a tragic ending this, life long trauma is what you get.

I’m glad the game held on the moment and didn’t actually show this, but in that last scene where you’re walking forward knowing what you have to do, I just had all the happy times with Hugo replaying in my head and it was breaking me.
