[General Discussion] ...That was it?

In ToS's defense all of the plot devices really maybe jump up and down and squeal excitedly in disbelief. Starting from when you find out:

Spoiler:

what the whole point of Chosen's mission really is, and then the rest of the betrayal points (eg. angels turn out to be evil) of the game.

I think Baten Kaitos comes to mind. Now I sold the game before I got to the most hyped plot twist at around the lava cave, but I still read and heard from a friend about what happened. Don't get me wrong

Spoiler:

Kalas, the main character, betraying the entire party the whole time was a shocking idea, but it would have retained its shock if he really was the bad guy and not just manipulated by someone else. The whole returning to your party eases the shock towards the end unfortunately.

Disgaea's endings were too minimal, and I heard the same goes for Disgaea 2.

Spoiler:

It had so much potential to be explained even further, but even in the best ending you really just have text about the Seraph testing you, midboss being implied as Laharl's father, and a vague implication of Laharl returning as a prinny.

They really should have added some actual sprite movement or at least pictures to accompany it!

Jam it back in, in the dark.
