You forgot to mention that, in Drakengard, a discount dynasty warriors-style medieval rpg(?), the final giant naked lady boss will fight you... ...in a rythym game.
I mean we're talking about Yoko Taro here >.> a man who made a game with 26 different endings, who crosses over games into different universes like it's nothing and who has a remake coming out with the subtitle of it being a bunch of numbers O.O
In Drakengard's defense, unlocking "ending E" also unlocks a bonus level where you get to actually FIGHT those jets that, canonically speaking, obliterated you with air-to-air missiles.
Wait wait wait. Does Rob actually have anything else to give up? He's living off water and cauliflower for god's sake! He'll be giving up gaming next :(
Drakengard is an interesting case, every ending after the first one gets worse and worse, like an onion you peel until you get to the bitter center. And I feel like that was intentional, Caim is positively heroic in the first ending compared to all the others and the fact that the game is presented in a kind of history book style tells me that the endings are basically you finding out the true historic events behind a hero story, all the embelishments and "artistic licnese" removed until the ugly truth is revealed. BTW, going with the lore of Drakengard and Nier, I don't actually think you get teleported to another world in Ending E, you travel into the future of that same world. Your actions in Drakengard removing all magic in it and the events being lost to history. The map of Drakengard is even an upside down Europe.
Actually, it's probably the past, there's a lot that shows that the drakengard verse and the nier verse are trapped in some kind of time loop, drakengard 3 -> drakengard 1 -> nier - > nier:automata -> ??? -> drakengard 3. Especially since we know that in drakengard 3, which happens before the first one, there is a modern city somewhere in the world. And some time-traveling androids too...
Managed to figure out how to kill almost all of Shepard's squad in Mass Effect 2 and leave the least-important team-mates alive. Makes for tragic hilarity!
The first time I discovered a "bad" ending was by accident. It was Streets of Rage on the Genesis. Playing multiplayer with a friend. We get to the end and the big bad asks us to join him. My friend says no. To be funny I said yes. We then had to fight each other to the death. I won and then the big bad asks me to join him again. This time I said no. Then fought and killed him. Credits start and it shows my character sitting in the big chair, the new boss of the underworld.
@@DeltathRiylaan I'm from the uk we get bank holidays and every Easter most of us get Friday and Monday off work and it's called a bank holiday so it's an extra yay.
Breath Of Fire 4 if you answer all the questions wrong at the end, you get a weird ending where you get to play as the final boss and kill your party. I was quite shocked when I discovered this.
Yo Rob, I just escaped the Shinra building in Final Fantasy 7 for the first time today and my mind was blown when I saw Cloud coming down those stairs on the motorcycle. All year I don't think I've played a cooler moment than using my massive sword to protect the truck on the highway from those motorcycling shinra grunts and it made me think that if you haven't already you should do a 7 PS Moments That Still Blow Us Away. Massive fan, keep up the stellar work.
Me: *sees Disgaea on the list* Me: Oh, it's probably some stupid joke ending involving Prinnies blowing up everything, haha *MC gets possessed and eats two children alive* Me: ...Welp. I guess I'm not sleeping tonight.
Hyperdimension Neptunia MkII/Re;birth2-Conquest ending: >Grinding goddamn lilly rank takes forever even with discs >CPUs are the hardest (non-colloseum) bosses in the game >For this ending you need every CPU character which requires moving shares from one nation to another which once again takes forever
I didn't play the game so yeah tell me... Is that hard? Or do you somehow get a easy way to win this strategy because this does not really sound very doable...
@@sazuna4024 Yes, it was quite hard. My main character was quite overpowered, but I didn't take the time to beat it. I did a quick little bit of googling, and found you can abuse the Chromatus, a system in the game, to take care of them easily. But yea, the story is that you have an option to "save" your brother by murdering the rest of your crew, instead of the normal way when everyone bands together to make the same ends happen. You have 5 tries of dialogue to "not" get into this battle, so yes, you must WANT to do this battle.
Yes that truly sounds like you really want to do it^^ But I guess all players want to find out what all the endings are in games. At least I am one of those people. And they make such games specifically to find out absolutely everything. And still understand nothing. Silent Hill is one of these games. The incredible amount of different things you have do to get the different endings is quite impressive. Just in 4 The Room they are not really worth getting since they are all pretty much the same. And actually pretty hard in my opinion without an actual benefit. The Metro games are not really hard to get the bad ending gameplay technically but actually finding and doing all bad things is not very easy. I don't know if Exodus has more than one ending though. Probably does.@@Theferrell
Oh yeah, I accidentally triggered this event on my first playthrough, of course I lost to Milla and Jude since those two were really overlevelled in comparison to Ludger, but I easily disposed of pretty much everyone else with Chromatus, and those epic in-game cutscenes prior battles were really worth it.
I thought you'd run out of video ideas by now. Very glad u havent, it's always a pleasant surprise to see your newest vid pop up in my recommended list. Stay awesome Rob and gang.
Wait, you're trying to say that only Ending E in Drakengard was a WTF moment? I'd say the entire game was a WTF moment. I very fondly remember my first experience of the delightful mindfuckery that was Drakengard.
I really like the timestamps in the description it adds a bit more flavor to the video so that you can skip to the part that you want although if you do your going to miss out on the good entertainment known as Rob Pearson.
Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2, the conquest ending, in short you need to get each country's local shares to 35-55% to unlock the three Cursed Sword events, then later raise them to between 50-70% to recruit the CPUs to the party, and then increase Planeptune's global shares to 55%+ ensuring that at least one of the other countries has under 15% global. All this must be done by the end of chapter 5, which would then trigger a somewhat depressing alternative chapter that leads to the conquest ending. It was made slightly easier in the remake Re;birth2
“You don’t ignore side quests.” I actually take it a step further and willfully ignore the main quest to pursue side quests until I hit a brick wall in side quests that forces me to progress the main quest.
Thank you very much for pointing skippers in descriptions, this helps me a lot to aoid spoilers :) Keep up the good work, i will forever like every video of yours and you are my favourite youtuber.
@@Sorrowdusk I don't know I never seen or read Evangelion but ending D leads to nier there is a giant nude statue in the middle of the cathedral City that spawns baby statues that u have to fight and ending C u have to fight your giant half nude angel sister after she was put into the world seed "at least I think it was called the world seed but I don't remember"
Many moons ago, I played Ace Combat. I met someone who has as well. He asked me "which ending did you get? That was such a weird question. Imagine if you watched a movie and someone said which ending did you get? I was confused. He then explained that the game had multiple endings. This blew my mind. He added that Silent Hill did as well. I ran back home and replayed them and I did see a few new endings. What a revelation!
Had too skip to Disagea as scared of spoilers for Mafia, Heavy Rain etc. Thanks for giving us a vid on a bank holiday Rob. Merry Easter to you and the Pearsons!
Ib. Even if you fail at a specific part which requires reflexes, you can still get a sort of “good” ending. You have to fail that specific part and the fulfill the weird requirements to get the absolute worst ending though.
I seem to always watch Rob's '7 Times' videos when I've opened a bear, I've deliberately gone two-weeks avoiding watching them in order to savor the experience for when I next decide to have a tipple.. The only problem with this is that I'm having a two-month detox from Monday, So I'll miss out on a lot of videos!
Me after hearing Drakenguard ending: wow that sounds like something out of Nier Rob: This it basicly the prequel of Neir (I have never played Drakenguard before btw)
Koudelka, not very well known, but fits this perfectly. You get the good ending by losing to the final boss and the bad ending by beating it. The Final boss is a huge step up in difficulty than anything you've faced before in the game and although you can build your characters to decimate the game, first time players probably wouldn't know how.
Haha, it’s great seeing someone remember Disgaea 2. The True Zenon ending was what immediately came to mind when I saw this video. Never got it myself, but I remember trying to grind for it.
I remember my first playthrough of The Witcher 3 where in the end all signs were leading to Ciri being dead and I was feeling absolutely devastated. And then seeing her not being dead and instead becoming a witcher (iirc) was euphoric to say the least!!
If you want the FEEL of the Mass Effect 2 ending without having to dump a hundred hours on getting it, try playing The Yawhg. It's a quick little rpg with a sort of choose-your-own-adventure/stat-builder mechanic and when the last days before the Yawhg arrives are over you have a chance - just like Mass Effect 2 - to pick who does what to help your city recover. Pick badly enough and the city falls apart, AND it's possible to pick stuff that destroys the city but helps your individual character(s) OR to set up an ending where absolutely NOBODY wins. And all this in under fifteen minutes. It's honestly pretty neat.
Getting that Drakengard ending was such a huge challenge. Tried for so long to unlock it only to be completely perplexed by what I saw. But getting to see caim mount a fighter jet made all of it worth it. Even though i was 100% done and had no reason to play after unlocking the jet.
If there’s a follow up for easy endings I suggest Infamous Second Son. For bad karma you don’t have to worry about innocent bystanders, the execute finisher uses the same attack button (I accidentally executed some in my good karma ending by button mashing too quickly) and you can power up your super attack by killing randoms on the street running between missions.
Re: Braid, princess being an atomic bomb... They explicitly reference the buclear bomb tests in the Nevada desert with some of the emding slides text. Quoting lines from stories about it.
Final Fantasy 13-2 gets an honorable mention because it too had 'Paradox endings' which were kind of bad endings you had to do mainly by beating certain bosses or resolving story elements in the wrong or incomplete order. The earliest example is beating a giant machine boss called 'Atlas' without performing the story requirement to weaken it first. It's actually much, much harder to beat Atlas before weakening it so the Paradox ending is something you really have to work for. FF13-2 has multiple Paradox endings to find and the game tracks which ones you've uncovered.
Well, you also have to work your way around for the Witcher 3 bad endings including Hearts of Stone AND Blood and Wine. I'm talking about Ciri's, the love interest choices, Olgierd, The Toussaint sisters and either/or The Clink trophy.
Rob don't worry about your first play-through of MGS. When I first played MGS2 I actually reset my PS2 when Campbell told me to and the screen size shrunk..... And yes, we're of similar age 👍
@Playstation Access here are a couple ideas for future Friday features: 7 mistakes we did in video games that cost us dearly 7 difficulties we attempted and failed miserably
*The "evil" endings to Infamous games.* Like, they are all so text-book douchey and a little silly, I can barely bring myself to make all the ridiculous choices to get there :D
Even better is that I'm pretty sure the evil ending of 2 was initially supposed to be the canon ending leading into Second Son. Until the developers saw how few people had actually got the evil ending and promptly changed their minds XD
Disgaea 2 ending made me feel all warm and fuzzy and seeing the couple still together in Disgaea 5 was great. Finding out there's an ending where he kills her and eats everyone else is rather horrifying
You know what Rob. After watching you for years and years and years. I think I am finally ready to play the Metal Gear Solid series for the first time ever. May I ask, which order do you suggest playing through the convoluted timeline??
Ooh, can you do the inverse, good endings that you really have to work for? I can think of one of those, "Final Fantasy X-2." I never finished it, but I understand it's really hard to get the ending where Yuna reunites with Tidus.
What about getting the Firestarter achievement in Oxenfree? It's not exactly an ending in it's own right but to get it you have to piss off everyone at every opportunity you have and sabotage all the relationships you can until everyone hates you. I've already attempted it once and flubbed it because Ren and Nora still got together.
My favorite bad ending memory *spoilers* is failing to get all the stars of destiny in Suikoden 2 resulting in Nanami's death, along with your best buddy Jowy. The worst part is that I got all the stars of destiny directly after the scene your supposed to have them all, but I didn't know. Its really rare for a video game to have me care so goddamn much about a character made up of pixels, Nanami's death was devastating, to the point where I didn't want to finish the game, but I was too far in so I pushed through, got my bad ending, and left the game emotionally exhausted. What a goddamn master piece of a game man.
Not nearly as much of a pain to get as the ones in this video, but seconded. Slightly ruined by them adding Holy Sword in Re;birth 2 though, which is a happy ending that has all the same requirements plus one more.
The only one of these I got was Undertale's Genocide Ending. I spent about 16 hours on the Sans boss fight but when I beat it, now that was a rewarding feeling.
Why would developers make it hard to see the bad ending??? I understand if it is triggered if you make certain story changing decisions, or don't collect all of the things. But I guess they want the "bad ending achievement" something you must work for.
I've heard that the Mafia III dark ending is hard to get, and the TrueTrophies ratio suggests that it's one of the hardest trophies I have. But honestly I didn't think it was that difficult 🤷♂️ once I learned how to do it, I just did
You’d have failed the torture scene cos you used your thumb. That section requires the controller positioned in a way that you can rapidly use your index finger to keep the health bar up.
I don’t know if there is a ‘bad ending’ of Metal Gear Solid 3 but I’m sure Nath and Dave will fine it. What am I saying? Even if there isn’t, they’ll find it 😂😂
You never tell a RPG player to not do side quests...that's just common sense🤣

Rob don't worry about your first play-through of MGS. When I first played MGS2 I actually reset my PS2 when Campbell told me to and the screen size shrunk..... And yes, we're of similar age 👍
@Playstation Access here are a couple ideas for future Friday features:
7 mistakes we did in video games that cost us dearly
7 difficulties we attempted and failed miserably
*The "evil" endings to Infamous games.* Like, they are all so text-book douchey and a little silly, I can barely bring myself to make all the ridiculous choices to get there :D
Even better is that I'm pretty sure the evil ending of 2 was initially supposed to be the canon ending leading into Second Son. Until the developers saw how few people had actually got the evil ending and promptly changed their minds XD
Disgaea 2 ending made me feel all warm and fuzzy and seeing the couple still together in Disgaea 5 was great.
Finding out there's an ending where he kills her and eats everyone else is rather horrifying
This might be the first Friday feature without final fantasy, metal gear or skyrim
Metal Gear was the first game he talked about
He started the video talking about metal gear
Silent Hill 2 was fun in getting all the endings but was a bit challenging.
You know what Rob. After watching you for years and years and years. I think I am finally ready to play the Metal Gear Solid series for the first time ever.
May I ask, which order do you suggest playing through the convoluted timeline??
I could never get the bad ending in Mass Effect 2: As you made clear, Rob, my brain just would not allow it.
Good video, Rob.
Ooh, can you do the inverse, good endings that you really have to work for? I can think of one of those, "Final Fantasy X-2." I never finished it, but I understand it's really hard to get the ending where Yuna reunites with Tidus.
If I remember correctly it is simply because there is one spot if you mess up then that's it you cant get it ever
I think I know what you are talking about. I saw it in a guide.
I did all the grinding in ruins, snowdin, and waterfall for the genocide run. Then I got to Undyne. I haven’t played the game since.
What about getting the Firestarter achievement in Oxenfree? It's not exactly an ending in it's own right but to get it you have to piss off everyone at every opportunity you have and sabotage all the relationships you can until everyone hates you. I've already attempted it once and flubbed it because Ren and Nora still got together.
TALES OF XILLIA 2
You must fight the part's members in pairs, alone and one after another (4 fights)
My favorite bad ending memory *spoilers* is failing to get all the stars of destiny in Suikoden 2 resulting in Nanami's death, along with your best buddy Jowy. The worst part is that I got all the stars of destiny directly after the scene your supposed to have them all, but I didn't know.
Its really rare for a video game to have me care so goddamn much about a character made up of pixels, Nanami's death was devastating, to the point where I didn't want to finish the game, but I was too far in so I pushed through, got my bad ending, and left the game emotionally exhausted. What a goddamn master piece of a game man.
I think MA3 doesn't even LET you transfer that particular bad ending, right?
The bad ending from Catherine was the best one. Totally worth the effort!
Looking at the end card on this video reminds me that Holly was so awesome that it took 2 people to replace her.
Hey Rob, are you going to do a few clips of games that are only available on 'playstation now'?
Every play neptunia. Rebirth 2 has a very sad ending that requires a great deal more work than any other ending of the 9 or so you can get
Hyperdimension mk/rebirth 2 conquest ending
Not nearly as much of a pain to get as the ones in this video, but seconded.
Slightly ruined by them adding Holy Sword in Re;birth 2 though, which is a happy ending that has all the same requirements plus one more.
The only one of these I got was Undertale's Genocide Ending. I spent about 16 hours on the Sans boss fight but when I beat it, now that was a rewarding feeling.
Why would developers make it hard to see the bad ending???
I understand if it is triggered if you make certain story changing decisions, or don't collect all of the things. But I guess they want the "bad ending achievement" something you must work for.
The first time I played heavy rain the origami killer got away with it... this whole time I thought that was the regular ending
Thanks to Rob, I have finally looked into the Metal Gear games. They are amazing and so well written.
I've heard that the Mafia III dark ending is hard to get, and the TrueTrophies ratio suggests that it's one of the hardest trophies I have. But honestly I didn't think it was that difficult 🤷♂️ once I learned how to do it, I just did
You’d have failed the torture scene cos you used your thumb. That section requires the controller positioned in a way that you can rapidly use your index finger to keep the health bar up.
6 days of waiting, 12 minutes of gold
I don’t know if there is a ‘bad ending’ of Metal Gear Solid 3 but I’m sure Nath and Dave will fine it. What am I saying? Even if there isn’t, they’ll find it 😂😂
