      Okay, only 30 seconds through the video and not at that segment nor the spoiler list screen but I’m guessing “Soul Nomad and the Rise of the World-Eaters”
      EDIT: Soul Nomad & the World Eaters. Just a bit off, but considering I probably haven’t played that game in like 8-10 years, I think I was pretty close. XD
      I miss it, such a good game. I liked it at least. Underrated.

    Metal Arms had a couple great "bad" endings. The first is within the first few minutes of the game, where you can agree to be a mechanic like your mom and go on to run the family business. The second is where you get shot-gun-wedding'd and run an even bigger family business. The game over screen then complains that you never went on awesome adventures or met a dog with a gun strapped to its back.

Which is incredibly cool, because it meant we got 4 sequel games to play in Nosgoth.

    Streets of Rage is a Japanese game. Most concept of alternate endings or multiple routes are influenced by visual novels there.

Plenty of VNs have BAD ENDs with happy endings, often happier than the true ending.

      I do think it could’ve been better, hear me out: we see Lincoln step out of the plantation and light a cigarette, eager to start running his new empire. Suddenly a shot rings out and he flinches in pain, then looks down to see a bullet hole in his chest rapidly pumping blood out. Lincoln goes for his sidearm as a reflex, but is shot again, this time in the leg. He drops to one knee and starts firing wildly, demanding his attacker show themselves, but another shot hits him in the neck. He falls prone, and as he lays there bleeding out, staring up at the night sky, Father James suddenly enters his view, holding his old M1 Garand. The preacher looks down sadly as Lincoln is slowly hit with the realization that he’s become just another monster like Sal, and that he only has himself to blame for this. Father James mutters "God forgive me", then walks off, leaving Lincoln to bleed out, alone. Thoughts?

      I dont think it is though. Because Meryl dies in that ending. She shows up in 4. Otacon is not shown dying in this ending either and presumably escapes on his own to meet up with Snake again at a later date. So while Otacon presumably survives both endings, Meryl does not so only one can be canon.
