The “worst” ending is actually the best

[Faded]

This is a vampire game and if you earned the “worst” ending, you actually became a real vampire.

I didnt think I would get the worst because only 1 district was hostile, but I embraced 13 citizens, I guess that will do it.

10/10 video game. Unique

As with all matters of opinion, everything is subjective. Considering how few decent video games are out there, I quite like the worst ending too.

With video games that have multiple endings, the terms best, good, bad and worst is tossed around a lot, as if it's a measure of their worth or how "happy" it is. But at least in this case, it has more to do with Jonathan as a person. The entire game is basically a journey of rediscovery and reinvention.

Even though we don't know much about his past, it's established that when he was human, Jonathan was considered a good person. Can he stay morally good or does he embrace his vampire nature?

The entire narrative is simply marvelous. Oh and the voice actors, incredible. 10/10

I agree. I watched all the endings on youtube and they are all good depending on what you want.

The voice acting was definitely AAA, on the ‘worst’ ending when Jonathan says he’s a real vampire now and not a boy, Elizabeth has confirmation she has nothing to live for anymore. That part really stood out.

Definitely a top narrative game.

Sh#t. It's only now that I realize I forgot to put the word vampire in "Considering how few decent vampire games are out there"

Even though the graphics themselves are subpar, I really like the visual style.

While there are way more than 13 citizens, in the conext of the game you have murdered 13 people. Even some of the more notorious serial killers (like Ed Kemper or BTK) have a lower kill count. That, plus given the radical depature of Jonathan being a physician, I can see a low kill count justifying the bad end. And I really like it.

Is THIS opinion also subjective? I'm confused now.

Elizabeth is Chloe Price of this game I swear. DONTNOD has some real issues creating realistic romance or love interest. The "bad" is really good ending for a vampire. Reminds me of Lasombra clan from Vampire the Masquerade, the ruthless ones or Tzimisce, both would fit.
