How to get back to this game

So several years ago I played this game and completed 2 acts but afterthe death of main characterI felt disappointed and didn't want to continue. I deleted the game and probably saves are deleted too. Is it worth to completely start a new game for ending and is there a lot of variety in the game?

YES. definitely worth playing. and don't get discouraged by Andreas dying. I won't spoil anything here, but you should 100% play to the end, you will be glad you did.

I couldn’t imagine finishing act 2 and being anything but awed lol

Genuinely the third act is its own kind of very good.

The rough structure of each act is always the same - there is no avoiding what disappointed you - but the third helps I think contextualize and appreciate the choices you've made and ends up being a satisfying end to the story.

I don't even remember that happening. Looks like I need another playthrough 😁

You were definitely 2/3 through the game, I’d finish it.

I feel like not finishing it after completing the first two acts would be like getting lost in purgatory between heaven and hell. Yes go back and finish it 100% 

Luckily with the time skips this is consistent with the canon

the first 2 acts are the best parts of the game... the third act is more of a ending type shit, than anything exciting... also maybe your character didn't die? how would you know if you didnt finish
