Wow, thats some deep stuff.Vern5 said:
I never really thought about a final level, i just skipped ahead to the final screens of the good ending (heaven where i can talk to everyone who ever lived a good life) and the bad ending. I got a sneak peak at the bad ending, human minds arent up to fully comprehending it.
My final level is the culmination of hard work, a fight that is so pointless but I fight it despite defeat being inevitable by now, simply because I know it is the right thing to do. Leading to an astounding reveal that would constitute a victory if everyone had heeded my warnings. Instead I do what is necessary but no one really cares and only now in the end do they see the full extent of their ignorance but I am gone and it is much too late for them to save themselves.
That sounds about right.

Actually, that's almost exactly the same as my idea for my final level. Except my final boss would probably be my own self doubt or perhaps a representation for my autism. He would basically be a shadowy figure of me who would feed me negative thoughts and attempt to make me go insane.Vern5 said:
Of course I also like FFIX's final level design:
A world where the memories of everything that has ever lived, including some that belong to the main characters of the game, combined to create it's existence. All formed by the very root of all life. The Crystal.
It's pretty much one of my most favorite final levels in any game that I have played. It's eerie, the music is hauntingly beautiful, and it's fairly challenging as well with all the bosses you have to face in there. So I probably wouldn't mind having something like that as my final level.
My true final level I always imagined an epic scene in which I have to defeat a major boss-level professor at my college in a fist-fight, philosophical and intellectual discussion while at the same time breaking clay pots with my legs. It would end in some sort of homage to History's Strongest Diciple Kenichi in a manner of speaking.
The kind of thing that would take place on top of the school's tower and decend into the courtyard depending on who gets thrown where, and a chance of weapons thrown in or guest star appearances by Jackie Chan, Weird Al, Bill Clinton, and the Harlem Globetrotters (for no apparent reason). It would end with two final punches thrown and caught and a whisper of a final question, the answer is accepted and a torn, battered degree bathed in light and awesome would be presented as I stand with my fist raised to the sun.
That's about it for college life, next onto the real world (if I can think of it, I will post it as a separate battle.)

I'd have to say that my favorite would be the final "boss" of Persona 3.
Also the final level that I'm always in is me as the final boss. Fighting the fool who dares challenge me, Battle, and eventually die a very dramatic death and reveal that I regret all the evil I have done, the darkness that corrupted me.
I always consider myself a badguy. Or at least some natural character who jsut does whatever the hell he wants.

I prefer surreal locations for boss fights as opposed to abstract. So, weird structures erected in seemingly impossible locations, as opposed to just rainbows or a solid color, like some RPGs like to do.
In dark room surrounded by my my personal guilt demons and evil acts kinda like hell but in the mind. With a sword?
I think I would take one from my dreams.
The music would be Sorrow for Fate/Stay night at the beginning before the fight
So just imagine what is happening.
I stand on an unknown battlefield, not on Earth, somewhere unknown to man.
Bodies lay all around me from both sides, Angels and Demons.
I lay alive due to my powers and overcoming my hardship.
My friends live back on Earth and I protected them from this war.
I have became the Archangel of Lightning so I could protect the ones I love once and for all.
Only one obstacle stands between me and their protection.
Him...I will kill him to protect them.
Light and Darkness from Fate/Stay Night again for battle music.
Lightning scatter around the dark sky as we draw close.
Swords are drawn from their sheaths.
Lightning strikes as metal hits metal.
Both fighters fight for one goal, and fight with everything.
Light and Darkness mix but reject each other as destined.
One blow hit, then another one and another.
Both men fall down, both get back up.
The fighting continue until one spills blood.
One man's body hits the ground, it tis not mine.
Dark blood swirl on the dirt beneath them.
And for the after music would be New Dawn also from Fate/Stay Night
I fall backwards onto the battlefield due to the exhaustion and weight of my armor.
I sigh as I put on a smile on my face.
Knowing they are protected.
A light shines on me as I feel weightless.
I'm being carried to the place I was born.
Heavean, come Heaven.
Here my cry.
My time isn't now.
For they are waiting.
Okay now that the curtain has closed and I have gone back to myself I got to say that would be rather awesome.

The final room of Portal 2.
A stupid mistake leads to almost certain failure, but a moment of total insanity somehow snatches victory from the jaws of defeat. And then rescued by an unexpected friend from the consequences of my own rash decision.
My life often goes a bit like that...

On a slightly-related note, when I reached "that" point in the game, I literally started yelling "The Moon is a portal-able surface! The Moon is a portal-able surface!" at which point my housemate came in to ask if I'd gone totally mad.
A simple corridor.
One exit at the end.
Endless waves of enemies coming from that exit.
You fight them.
You keep fighting.
And you keep going, even though you know deep down that there is no end.
Eventually you are overrun, and cannot fight anymore...
And there you have a faux-symbolic final level, and you don't even need to waste time and money making an ending. Everyone's happy!
Except the gamers, but who cares about them, right!
Captcha: window dressing.
Yeah, that could work too.
