Just finished Sea of Stars. I never 180'd from a game so much.

I started it a week and a half ago, and I was in love with the game. The story was cliché, sure, but everything else was perfect, and the characters were kind of cute.

But the third act feels too rushed and the ending... Oh boy, the ending. It just doesn't feel like an ending at all. I was extremely disappointed with it, and too many setpieces just led to nowhere.

And the true ending was even worse, in that it not only has very arbitrary requirements to unlock (including finding all 60+ collectibles scattered across the map in random locations), but ruins one of the best and arguably the most emotional moments of the game as well.

spoilerI despise time travel. Always. It just doesn't work, unless you put a lot of thought into it, and the Sea of Stars developers clearly didn't even try.
