All I can say is this...

What the blazing blue fucking bullshit was THAT?!

If you kill Sarah, Edward is possessed by Lucifer.

And If you don't kill Sarah, Edward walks away, with Lucifer inhabiting her body. AND THIS IS THE GOOD ENDING.

NEITHER OF THESE TWO ENDINGS IS GOOD.

Setting up the game for a sequel THAT WILL NEVER BE.

I WANT MY WEEK OF GAMING BACK. FUCK YOU, EDEN GAMES.

You should've realized what you were getting into when you started playing a game which couldn't be bothered to fix its incredibly clumsy, sluggish fighting mechanic because it was too busy implementing stuff like realistic fire effects and a f'ing "wink" key. I mean COME ON.

That said, having only those two endings to pick sounds great to me. I always hated sunny, happy happy joy joy "good" endings --especially for so-called horror games. I say that might be just about the one thing this game did right, and note that I hate this game as I hate few things in this world.

I actually got used to the fighting mechanic (though the mouse implementation sucks.)

And it didn't need a "happy" ending. Just one that wasn't so fucking tragic. It's just a setup for a sequel that won't happen.
