We have two more (lame) trials to go through, followed by the BIG DECISION before the final boss. The decision is neat, given the time period. Games with multiple endings -usually- just changed endings based on one binary choice, so I'm not gonna take too much away from the game for the Mist/Rain choice.

The final boss is probably the coolest boss in the game, especially if you get the bad ending -- being able to fight the final boss as Hana, Glas, then Deke is very neat, although the ending you get is beyond awful.

Overall, I think Fear Effect 2 still stands the test of time and is a very solid game. As an entire package, I enjoy Fear Effect 1 more -- the story is more concise and makes more sense (even in the grand scheme of weird Fear Effect stuff). Fear Effect 2 definitely has better gameplay, and is the game I remember best, but I'm gonna choose 1 if I had to pick only one.

I -might- try Fear Effect Sedna out at some point, but... we'll see. For now, thank you very much for watching!
