>mfw you find out that Wizards of the Coast had an autistic shitfit over how popular the BG-Series was that they declared everything non-canon and instead released some absolutely abysmal tie-in novels that are canon instead where:

>CHARNAME is some edgy murderhobo merc with a sandnigger name
>Jaheira is a slut and the main romance for CHARNAME but they never fuck until she gets eaten/raped to death by Abazigal and afterwards CHARNAME and her have sex in a dream
>Khalid is a wifebeater and gets eaten by a slime and NTRd by CHARNAME
>Montaron and Xzar get tortured to death by Sarevok
>Xan is a bitch and gets eaten by spiders in the Cloakwood
>Imoen has lesbian drowsex with Phaere and gets her neck snapped in TOB by that monk faggot
>CHARNAME fucks Bodhi who is the owner of the Copper Coronet and murders her afterwards
>Yoshimo gets murdered by CHARNAME in Slayerform
>Minsc is just some crazy carrot top hobo
>Saemon Havarian is just some old drunk hobo who ferries CHARNAME with a rowing boat to the Cowled Mage Prison
>Sarevok gets resurrected and and some point in TOB just kinda walks off into nothingness crying about his dead waifu Tamoko and the the author just forgets about him

Oh yeah CHARNAME also stays mortal and later on becomes one of the lords in Baldurs Gate only to be killed off in some Adventure Module where he explodes into Bhaal because WOTSC decided to bring him back in 5E.

>party members promise to visit each other after the game ends

What are some games with bittersweet inconclusive endings? Something like End of Evangelion, where there's no definitive resolution but it's not a cliffhanger. Stuff that makes you feel uneasy about how it ends.
