8 Times the Real Ending Was in Premium DLC

Описание: A good ending should tie up the loose ends and show all the preceding stuff added up to something. One surefire way to annoy players therefore is to put the real ending of the game into some premium DLC that doesn't come with the game as standard.

This video ponders those instances where a game's true ending was in DLC you had to pay for. Watchers beware giant spoilers for the following games: Fallout 3, Asura's Wrath, Assassin's Creed Revelations, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Dragon Age Origins, The Evil Within, Batman Arkham Knight, Outlast and its Whistleblower DLC, and Dead Space 3.

With Fallout 3, for example, we were still complaining to friends, family and nervous passers-by about the ending half a year after it came out.

As much as we loved the game, we were still salty over how your decision right at the end came down to either sacrifice yourself to a room full of deadly radiation or sacrifice Sarah Lyons to a room full of deadly radiation. All while Fawkes stood there like a giant, useless, radiation-proof pile of no help at all.

Then along came Fallout 3 DLC Broken Steel, which modified your final decision to include the mind-bogglingly obvious option of sending in a radiation-proof companion to soak up the rads and turn on the water purifier. Get lost, canonical ending of the main game: the Wasteland was saved and everybody made it out alive.

Or how about Asura's Wrath? When your plot is as involved and frankly as furious as that of Asura's Wrath, you might well lose track of what's going on and, in your confusion, forget to put your ending on the game disc.

We hope it wasn't for more cynical financial reasons than that it was arranged so you had to spend an extra fiver to get the downloadable final four episodes of Asura's Wrath to experience the true ending.

In episodes 19 to 22, Asura's daughter Mithra, the one he's spent the entire game trying to protect, becomes inhabited by a talking golden spider, who turns out to be the Lord of All Creation. Who Asura kills when he takes on his final, godly form, ripping the space time continuum a new one in the process. Nothing major, then?

If you just played what was on the disc and left it at that, well, that's like the time I walked out of the Sixth Sense ten minutes early. You know, that movie about the nice psychologist who everyone ignores.
