Me too, and I always get the “melancholic” trait in the end.
Just to be clear, I don’t know if they changed the writer or if they just kept a bad scheme of the game plot and forgot some things. But is clear the change in the quality of writing.
Yes and like, it was only a text epilogue, they totally could have MC and Lucien travelling all around. It wasn’t going to be more work write a good ending.
I am most interested in the Nouritis route, but I want to play Zarik’s too.
Oh, and I am pretty sure the author got a thing for suffering. Like, especially after the new interactions with Zillah I get how he was feeling, but she put so much in Roe’s shoulders in so little time. It wasn’t easy. Also when we don’t have a conclusion, is worse! By the time I played Throne of Ashes, if the game wasn’t finished, to be honest, I probably would have dropped.
Sometimes I use AMR as an example because I still can’t get how this game fucked my head. Just thinking about it make me feel bad. Actually, if I could forget that I played, I would, gladly. I really hope for the future IFs that I’ll play that they don’t ever make me feel like I felt playing AMR, especially after all that shit that happened and I still tried to engage the second part. Even trying to keep my distance and not to self-insert, the way that it made me feel… I just don’t want to feel that way again, even if it’s fiction.
Just updating this post because Rolling Crown posted an update for the new Demonheart game… With Kaisar art. 
I can’t wait to smooch this rat man
