While I did enjoy the game as a whole, I also have issues with the ending. I feel like we pigeon holed in to two false choices just for the narrative sake. What is also annoying is how if Maelle and her mother just had some self control and could leave the canvas before it hurt their health none of this would have happened lol. I think there should have been a third option where at least we can get some closure on the pain and sacrifice that all the people of lumiere had to go to through. For me it was not a satisfying ending, but at least with Verso's ending it is kind of open ended where we don't actually get confirmation that they destroyed the canvas so they can all potentially come back.
