    EDIT: REPLACE "BG3" for "TOB" hahahaha

    Hopefully BG2:EE won't extinguish these movies!

    I really did like BG1 ending, don't get me wrong. But my hatred (and love) for Irenicus as a villain made that ending movie so sweet. Sure I hated Sarevok, but Irenicus just made me so angry (and happy) and that I loved to see his punishment.

    As for ToB (NOT Bg3 lol) I try to avoid it and can't honestly remember the ending movie.

    I'd vote ToB, but it has nothing to do with Amellysan. Seeing the faces of the "canon" companions, combined with the narration of the last cinematic and the real finality of what had just happened, just resonates more with me than the others.

    In terms of raw, context-free badassery, though, I'd vote Irenicus' demon smackdown.

    To end...like THIS?

    I thought Irenicus's death scene was pretty lame, actually. Sarevok disintegrating was awesome.

    @Madhax
    I agree. BG2's ending is basically:
    -Irenicus: Aaah crap. My magic doesn't work!
    -Demons: Geronimo!

    In BG1 you see that you're not the only one that dies like that and it really explains why you turn into ashes.
    Then you see what happens after death and that it's only the beginning of your destiny.

    In ToB, it's just satisfying seeing that annoying bitch be utterly destroyed along with the essence and ending it once and for all.

    It's BG1, ToB, then BG2 for me.

    Pretty much. It was even worse for me, since I immediately thought of the demons as kobolds the first time I saw the movie. I don't think they actually are kobolds, but the image of this badass villain being killed by the prequel's weakest enemies was just silly to me the first time I completed SoA.

    Do I really have to give an explanation?

    I like the part with the hooded men talking about Gorion's Ward. It is simply epic.

    Irenicus line "To end like This" is very dramatic
    but BG1 end movie set the standard for the past 14 years of video gaming
    I was stunned when I saw all the statues

    I think BG1 ending (not Enhanced Editon one... sorry) is my favourite. In this cinematic, there is no dialogue, words or anything unnecesary. Just a good, climatic music and sound effect. And that was enough to understand what was going on. Basically, Sarevok died and his "divine" part has returned to the Bhaal. And what was more epic, you are discovering that there are so many Bhaalspawns in the realms...

    While my second favourite is ending of ToB, It can't meassure with BG1-ending awesomeness.

    What I like best about Irenicus' ending is that you actually see him suffer, and that's extremely satisfying considering all the things he puts you and your friends through. Sarevok's ending is really cool too but not for his shattering, but rather the fact you discover there are tons of other Bhaalspawns beside yourself. First time I saw it I felt a chill down my spine, it was quite incredible.

    Irenicus' soul getting Zerg Rushed into a lava pool. In the Abyss. By lesser demons. No wish spell from whatever Stimpy you might still have is going to save your soul from that, Ren!

    He hurt Imoen. He paid.

    Sarevok's Bhaal essence going to the Lower Planes, and that massive wall of Bhaalspawn was also impressive.

    Never completed Throne of Bhaal! Pffeh. Will complete it soon enough.

    Killing Sarevok felt so sweet and rewarding. Then the movie shows all the statues and I thought "Oh....wait, WAS THAT A DRAGON!"

    My Dad was more badass than Genghis Khan

    Irenicus in hell outclasses all the other ending movies.

    Gooooood I wish for a Neutral ending for those charnames that isn't good or evil.....

    I always see the world as grey......
  • TyranusTyranus Member Posts: 268
    I distintly remember watching the ending to SoA and ToB and thinking, with a smug look on my face....

    "Ha, dumb f*@&%! I have the blood of a God! You can't have MY power!"

    At least with Sarevok, it was fate. Plus, no matter what he did, he's blood. That's always my rationale for recruiting him endgame, even with a Paladin PC
