I'm a player of RPGs. Chrono Trigger, an RPG with multiple endings, is forever one of my favorites. I liked Star Ocean 2 as well. But to be honest, I don't really like it when games have multiple possible endings. As an RPG fan, I believe that the story is the most important part of a game (an RPG anyways), and a game with several possible endingssometimes leaves me wondering what really happened at the end of the story.
I guess having several possible endings is okay. Some people like it because theywould imagine themselves being themain character, especially main characters who are always silentlike inChrono Trigger, and then whateverending they reach istrulythe ending of "their" story.But I prefer thinking that the character I'm controlling is his own character, and even with more than one possible ending, I at least want one ending considered the canon ending.
What do you guys think? Do you like it when games have numerous possible endings? Did some games presented it pretty well? Would you want at least one canon ending? Name some games. Let's discuss.
