Will we have to buy the ending to this game?

Yeah, there was a point where the game did not continue and end credits began, but is that an ending? No.

Did you know what happened to any of the characters? No.

Were any of the character arcs resolved? No.

Are there significant events that MUST transpire after Serah's death? Yes.

Did anything that you saw make any sense? No.

It is at all satisfying? No.

And here's another question:

Is it the end of the story?

NOOOOOOOOOOO.

Notice there's another game? They ROBBED YOU. You were CONNED. It was a FRAUD. If you want your FFXIII-2 ending, you GOTTA PAY. This is the tax you must pay, the tithe demanded of you to get the full experience.

WELL SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEW YOU!!!

NO.

I WILL PAY NOTHING. NEVER. I'm mad. I'm furious. I'm nearly insane. And so should everybody else. Smash your FFXIII-2 disc. Burn down any store that DARES sell Lightning Returns! Tell the world you aren't a mark that can be abused endlessly be this nonsense! LET THE WORD BE KNOWN. THERE ARE BASIC THINGS THAT A STORYLINE REQUIRES. DEMAND MORE. You deserve more!

Raise your standards, people.
