Does anyone remember the debate in CGW mag between Johnny Wilson and Scorpia over the ending in Darklands? Over a series of issues they argued the flaws and merits of the game, focusing on the end where you had to sacrifice one of your characters. Johnny felt strongly that it was wrong to ask you to sacrifice a character you'd been developing through an entire game. He said so in a side bar in the same issue as her review. She came back in the next issue and defended her stance saying that it made the sacrifice real. I think it went on but I don't remember. Pity you don't hear this kind of disagreement more in todays gamerags. There were also less rules in game design then. All hail the OLD SCHOOL!
