Lets see some creative ending names. (two endings per heroine)

Rin- atop a cloud (true end), that day three months ago (happy end

Lilly- love is blind (true end), a sight to remember (happy end)

Kenji: A River in Egypt (bittersweet end) Brothers in Arms ...and Love (Best End)

Hmm. I didn't read that many VN's yet... So far the only one with the True End/Good End formula was Tsukihime.
Is that something that happens often?

Fate/Stay Night did it, too

Several Crowd games like the X-Change series and Tokimeki Checkin also used the Normal End/True End principle for most girls. Only the True End sequences would result in the end credits being displayed.

What, nobody's trying to name the bad ones? Optimists.

And to think some people say that the titles WE come up with are vague, arbitrary and have nothing to do with what actually happens in the story.

A kite gets hit by lightning (Rin bad end)

My friend is my enemy! (Kenji bad end)

WTF mate? *laugh*

Okay, lets try some strange ones... (or just stupid)

Rin Yandere End:
– "Not Quite Harmless"
– "More Than a Handful"
– "Lights Out"
– "Guernica"

Emi Bad End:
– "Swimming Into Your Eyes"
– "No Looking Back" or "Don't Look Back"

Shizune Bad End:
– "Silence at Last"
– "Hands Down"

Lilly Bad End:
– "Visions of Hell"
– "Touched" or maybe something like "Touched by the Light"

Obviously a list of jokes, most of them, some have possible deeper meanings. Like maybe Touched by the Light involves Lilly getting into a sick and twisted religion that involves someone getting crucified and stuff like that, then going mostly nuts.
I'll get into figuring out good ends later. Time to go to sauna.

Think about it. Rin and Hisao get into drugs and Hisao either has some manner of heart attack or Rin goes batshit insane while high.

Three words:

Pseudo

Tea

Cosy

I never really understood why the endings needed names in Tsukihime (or any game that does the same thing)

It's sounds nicer than Akiha True End and Akiha Normal End?

God DAMN you.


I'm staying the hell away from Kenji now because of you. I hope you're happy with yourself.

In conversation? Functional labeling would seem more sensible, of the only two games I recall talking the endings about, I can no longer remember what Tsukihime ending was named what, but Saya no Uta's "germination end" and "asylum end" definitely bring up recollections. Maybe it's just because I didn't like Tsukihime. Well, at least with us (dumbly) naming every scene in KS, you can refer to endings by the names of the final scenes if nothing else. I wonder if we should separately name the endings too then? I'm all for making KS cooled and edgier.

(btw it's totally hilarious coming up with the 250+ pretty much totally arbitrary names needed for this game)
