For anyone else who has completed the game Painkiller, did you find the ending odd\disappointing?

I sure as HELL did. The final level scenery was amazing and was one of the best depictions of hell i've ever seen in any game or movie.

Basically for those who don't know the level, it's a massive dead wasteland with things that man have done in the past that represent death, war and bad . . . stuff. For example, there are sections that you walk through. The first is a viking, swords and axes era where when you walk into it, you can hear battle of swords clashing and people screaming. The next is a WW1 trench area with people shouting orders, grenades going off and gunfire. Then it's just burnt out houses and a massive nuke dug into the floor. When you look out to see, all the water is frozen with a ship half stuck vertically out of the water and finally a big mushroom going up into the sky.It's really odd though because everything is frozen like the explosions are staying completely still in the air.

The point is, the ending was stupid as it did not explain why your character was the one chosen to fight the armies. If anyone can explain, please do.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
