I think the peak/climax experience for me is elpis. Literally cried watching the cutscene after lv 87 dungeon. After that, I started losing enjoyment from the story. It is still a wild ride till the end, don't get me wrong. But rather than enjoying the writing, I was more focused on the plot idea itself (idk if this even make sense, sorry).

I was rushing through the second part of labyrinthos and last zone because I just want to see ending. This has never happened to me before since I start playing. Usually I will take time to savor the story. Just this one time it's not. Not sure if it's actually a good thing or not

The only redeeming part of last zone is, for me: 1) seeing emet and hythlodaeus again, 2) when we let meteion see our feelings, and 3) the stair part I guess? In that order. Couldn't care less about Zenos, but the scene after the fight is beautiful.
