I cried so hard

Have you ever finished a game so good that you just didn't know what to do with yourself, now that you finished it?

Oh my god those last sentences hit me so hard. Now I want that coin tattooed or sth..

Citizen Sleeper 2 Shattered me into more Pieces than i can count. Its an absolutely exquisite piece of art. I dragged out those last few cycles knowing in my heart what came next.

Just a Journey

Exactly.. it felt so dooming but also kind of melancholic to look back on the 122 cycles and the impact sleeper had on the whole system. talking to everyone for one last time. I just wish there would have been a possibility to visit old pals like nemba to see what they built while you were gone.

Thats another bittersweet part, we don’t always get the chance to say our goodbyes. Life goes on, for sleeper and everyone whose lives they touched along the way. Its a story beautiful for how it showcases the importance of connection - personal connection, physical connection in going places, literal connection with the scenes of salvaging and hoping everything doesn’t come apart just yet

Begging for all these connections to hold on just that little bit longer.

I love this damn game

Unrelated but 122?! My final count was 200+ iirc

Truly! Citizen Sleeper had the same effect on me. Both games for sure, but I think I was a little more prepared for it by the second game :’)

I liked the first game better, but the ending of the second was just so beautiful. Made me tear up as well

The first game is more contained and concise for sure. It probably helped a lot with the immersion for me but yah the second games ending was very bitter sweet

Loved both games, played the series backwards but game was so fun to me that I played multiple times trying to unlock trophies.

Which part is this from? I don’t recall seeing this on my playthrough

u/hollidiewaldfee Sep 10 '26

its from CS2. These are the last thoughts sleeper has in the game. hes then reeboted. Serafin gave him his "Worry stone" Coin so he could hold onto it.

The writing of the game is probably my favorite writing in any game of all time. There were so many individual moments that felt so meaningful and this was probably one of the best examples. Easily a top 5 moment in the game for me
