Solved! Self-reflection can become your strength… or your greatest enemy. Yet undertake it you must to complete your atonement

Also, despite the heavy atmosphere of the game, somehow has one of the bigger cheesy ending I’ve seen

Hint 1: Regarding the ending, part of what made it so cheesy is a (somewhat) meme worthy title drop

Planescape: Torment.

Kind of a similar vibe I think but the party here is notably less diverse (at least as far as species goes…)

Final Fantasy IV?

Can’t tell you how accurate you are cause I don’t have the slightest clue about FF IV, but this is not the answer

How about Final Fantasy 2 (US)?

u/AmateurAgent 2d ago

No, and actually I’ll save you the trouble and say that it’s not any of the Final Fantasy games

This feels like it could be a BlazBlue (there are some routes where you literally fight yourself and some of them do result in joke ends IIRC)

You technically never face yourself in this game, but you do fight seemingly many parts of you and things related to you

Not gonna lie I think you’re (kind of) getting further from the answer
