David Brevik, the co-creator of Diablo, has publicly shared his pick for the worst video game ending he has ever encountered, while simultaneously praising the title as an amazing experience overall.
Speaking about his gaming preferences, Brevik highlighted the stark contrast between a phenomenal overall journey and a deeply disappointing conclusion. While the industry is no stranger to divisive finales—ranging from abrupt cutscenes to controversial narrative twists—Brevik's critique points specifically to how a lackluster finale can sit awkwardly alongside an otherwise exceptional piece of software.
For players tracking industry commentary and developer insights, the remarks offer a rare look at how veterans of the genre evaluate game design from start to finish. Brevik noted that despite the severe misstep at the conclusion, the game itself remains worthy of high praise for everything that comes before the credits roll.
