>SUPER HAPPY ENDING revealed at PAX East
Hmm, I actually don't know how to feel about that. If my husbando gets to be happy, then so am I. But if it comes at the expense of undermining all the emotional and most interesting parts of the original story that made me fall for him in the first place, it's going to be hollow. I wish they had more confidence to stick by their guns and approach it in a different way, as it is a big 180 after doubling down on the themes of suffering and sacrifice for so long.
Episode Ignis's happier ending succeeded mainly because it comes right off of them making the main ending even more depressing, so it was really cathartic, and because Ignis still had to sacrifice quite a lot for the small victory of keeping Noctis alive. I guess we will just have to see where it all goes.
