10 Video Game Endings That Were Profoundly Insulting

8. Asura's Wrath

Speaking of games that ended and prompted you to go buy the DLC, Asura's Wrath genuinely omitted its final chapters and secured them behind a paywall.

Literally, it simply ends after a big ol' boss battle, yet has zero resolution, seeing Asura retreat from the evil Vlitra's power, only for Capcom to advertise a 'True Ending' that would contain extra story information, yet would charge players another $7 if they wanted the remaining episodes 19-22.

Said DLC was very sizeable, too, delving into multiple new characters and resolving them appropriately. It's pretty clear the game was segmented for the sake of getting fans to cough up the additional funds - a pretty bold move considering Asura's Wrath was an all-new property - though it in-turn ended up burying what could've been a really neat franchise, had it not tried to nickel n' dime consumers so egregiously.
