Ending disappointed me
I suffered 110 hours just for this? I unlocked 3 different endings, default, order and stars.

Only age of stars looks ± good, other is just copypaste of each other with different background and age name. There is no difference what ending you choose, world is remaining the same. 30 seconds cutscene is the f*cking thing i was fighting for? Really? I hoped there will be at least 5 minutes cutscene or something...
Okay, ending is a disappointment, but i hoped at last that something in world will change. I'l see NPC reaction on me as elden lord, or someone just will thank me for new age or something. But after ending the game you will get nothing. NPC in round table room will talk like you still not killed Marika, still you have to beat the game.
This is a huge spit into player's soul. Ending doesn't feel like reward at all.

I remember when I killed Godrick everyone thanked and respected me for that, that feels cool when world just can say thank you for progress. But ending... I feel just broken after it.

Don't you think that ending must be a reward for beating this kind of game?

its not about the destination, but the journey

I don't even remember the endings. They're so forgettable.

This is just laziness for developers to make an extra phase for world after beating the game. Really, why should we make an extra few NPC dialogs, new model of erd tree or change the sky, let's pretend that nothing happened and let player quickly begin new journey.

This is exactly what I am talking about.

soulsborne endings are always short, most of the times not sweet either. yeah, i was disappointed because this game was so good, but we got the same treatment as before. basically nothing you do matters, you're just here to kill. best ending is ending age of fire in ds3, with the firekeeper asking you if you hear her voice still. it's hopeful, but all these endings besides ranni's are pretty depressing. game was built around her imo, it's the only ending that makes your work worth it.

my 4th run is going to be in the flavor of that ending.

I mean by the end of the game most of the npcs are either dead or went insane. With a few exceptions. Though it would be nice if some of them had dialogue after the game. But hey at least we still have the few sane npcs with us at the end.

Also have you done the frenzied flame ending yet?

I've seen it on youtube. I copied my save file before entering 3 fingers room, when Melina rejected me I just backed up my save.

The endings are tons better than Dark Souls where you perpetuate the cycle, or choose not to, but someone else will.

Yep, the endings are terrible. Ds1 and Ds2 were the only games with even half-decent endings.
