The ending ending, you know the one after To A Glimmering Tomorrow, which btw is the best song in the series through sheer emotional investment.

"Yeh've forged a magnificent sword."

"This one's only practice. The real sword I intend to forge will be three times longer."

"Can there really be a sword as monstrous as that in this world?"

"Yes. I can see that sword... Somewhere out there..."
CS2's ending is good in part because it's so long. You get time (and a timeskip, and a convenient temporary change in cast) to imagine, okay, this is bad, but Rean has his friends and this story's been all about friendsh--oh. Oh no. Oh my god these dumb kids they are are so bad at this

It's all one gigantic thing, and despite it lasting so long it's all relevant to what it's doing. Long, but focused.

Inner Twilight is in the same game and better. :colbert: Bonus points for sneaking in "Twilight" before that became a plot thing in the sub-series.

without love it cannot be seen
My main complaint about CS2 is that it overstays its welcome a little bit.

Still like it though.

How though, its exactly the same length as CS1.
I've 100%ed it twice and both times they were about 95~ hours, at best 1 or 2 hours difference.

who, me?


It ends several times

Now, that's forgivable because it's like the only game in the entire series with a denouement, but still
