Finally finished P3 (hello again, Nyx, have a nice helping of Armageddon as Satan travels back in time to team up with Golden Age Satan), and the ending was...

Well.

See, I can't criticize it. Not really. Because the game has been on my plate for a long time, I cared about all the characters, there's no possible ending the game could have that would fully satisfy me. None whatsoever. It was a game I wanted to beat and didn't want to end all at once, even with the gigantic fricking annoyance at the end notwithstanding.

However, they were a bit too subtle with the message at the end there. Oh, sure, it was pretty well implied what was going on with all of the "you feel very tired" references, not to mention the reactions of others, but at the same time... subtle is good, but there's just far enough and then there's a bit too far.

I'm willing to wager The Answer helps tie that up a little bit better. At least it explicitly states what was going on in those last couple minutes.

So, B+ for the ending, with the understanding it couldn't have satisfied me. The game as a whole? A solid A, with some very high points and a couple disappointingly low points.
