    If you play a game again and get the same ending, do you feel the same way?

    I realize its a story fight. But its a heck of alot better this way then watching it on Youtube cause you wanted to see it again. Id rather play it again, like i did atleast 20 times for each NES, SNES FF that came out. I didn't throw the cartridge at SE headquarters cause Zeromus died the same way twice.

    Its for the fun of it with or without some one who needs it.

    Depends on the context, I suppose. Short answer, a more accurate parallel would be when the ending of Final Fantasy X-2 was a reuinion that negated the powerful emotion I felt at the ending of part one.

    I felt pretty accomplished for taking part in the "conclusion" and seeing the "finale." Now I feel like I didn't really accomplish anything - that it was a stepping stone, a minor fight that paved the way for my real goal.

    I'm happy to achieve the new goal - but... at the same time it's bittersweet. It's all about the words used to describe the fight, I think.

    I guess it's just a fun extra in the end... but something psychologically sits awkwardly with me. No one else felt that stinging disappointment at the same time as the excitement?
