The author has said that it will have a bittersweet ending. The series hasn't ended yet. (I don't think this spoils anything)

If you guys can't tolerate Harry potter, then you should look up my immortal fanfic
It makes everything so bad
And hilarious
Rib-crushingly hysterical
Me and my friends read it, and whenever we heard the word "black," (that word was in almost every sentence) we read it as "African-american."

characters are killed too often in this series to be considered "main characters" i feel

i just want a series to end with the main character dying and fucking things up. if you wanna go onto say that his sacrifice wasn't without a cause, that's cool. but i feel like i can get behind a story like this, emotionally. like..shit, i cant believe that happened.

Nah, its full 3D space, unlike BW which is inferior 2D. Superior game, superior tech.

Literally the discussions I remember from 1999 when both came out.

It's gotta be a reasonably heroic protagonist though. There's a lot of stories with dead main characters, but they usually characters who are mobsters, junkies, or otherwise explicitly setup to tragically die to a flaw you knew from the start was probably going to do them in. There's some that do a decent job of it still (say The Departed or Children of Men if you like those movies), but ya not enough maybe.

in deed. The story is over hyped by nostalgia for a game that no one has played in 10 years, fighter micro is the eqivelent of one of the 5 things even a protoss player has to being doing in the same time frame, litterally has ballistics

The Last of Us probably is the best example of such a story in a game.

No, they don't

But I don't think happy is the word to describe that ending.

i think it depends on how you look at it.
I think its a happy ending cuz they get what they want. it ends with them going to safety to live out the rest of their lives in relative peace
