Is this the worst possible ending?

[NyanMango]

By this I mean "The Foggy City (referring to the cutscene name)"

Boy, that felt like a punch to the gut. So many unresolved issues. I guess that's what I get for sitting on the fence?

...am I right in assuming this was the worst possible ending? I hope I don't have to go to far back in order to get a better ending...I didn't really keep many save files. I guess my question is... what did I do wrong? Does it all depend on that hospital scene?


Really worried about using a guide because I don't want to spoil any other endings

I assume you are referring to the ending where the Investigation Crew throws Taro Namatame into the tele ?

If you don't count a game over screen (loss in battle or failure to rescue the victims before the fog lifts) this would be considered the 'worst ending', especially since this is the first time the party shows intent to kill something other than shadows. There is also the case of the 'true' killer being at large and the fact that the party does not deal with the fog that threatens Inaba .

There are other endings but in my opinion a 'worse' ending would be the Accomplice Ending where the player decides to side with the 'true' killer. It seems so out of character, even for a blank-slate character, and just so unreasonable .

A lot depends on what will happen at the beginning of december.

Actually getting the best outcome is not so hard. Just sit a while and think.

You got a bad ending, but not the bad ending.

The worst ending is either Accomplice, where you betray a year's worth of 'the power of friendship' being crammed down your throat to defend the Killer who you know killed two people, or throwing Namatame in the TV without calming the team down, where he also gets away with everything but Nanako doesn't make it.

If you're just looking to get past 12/03 and get on the route to the good ending though, pick these dialogue choices.

Yosuke: What do you want to do... partner?
"Wait a second here."
"We're missing something."
"Namatame's true feelings."
"Something's been bothering me."
"We're missing something..."
"Calm the hell down!"

I'm running this game blind for the first time, but am using a guide for the best ending. No shame in that, especially sinceit all comes down to a few dialogue choices in a single scene anyway.

[Frost フロスト]

Is there anyone that can get even the normal ending on the first try? Because I think the choices are too specific and although I am not going to throw Namatame to TV, I am sure without guide, I can easily go into bad ending due to ambiguous decision in 3rd or 4th choice. Hell, I even not thinking to pick 'Calm the hell down' on the last choice if not for the guide

Much appreciated! What an oddly specific set of choices

Yeah, the idea is that the I.T is actually blinded with bloodlust, and you need to create enough doubt in their mind that they rethink their belief that Namatame did it.

Basically, keep on reaching out to the truth (har).
