Well I suppose that helps. Thanks.

The game is really fun and I enjoy it a lot. Nothing like playing a dark game that has interesting puzzles and hideous creatures to fight. As for the ending, all I know is there might be a sequel since the game ended with 'to be continued'.

I refuse to play the game, how EA could have bastardized a classic poem like the Divine Comedy I have no idea.
