no but genuinely i think about the arcade gannon legion ending so fucking much its on my brain all the time. I think its one of my favourite endings in the game and it’s not because it’s a “good” ending. its an awful tragic one. It manages in just a few sentences to expand on both Arcade and Caesar’s characters in really interesting ways.

Caesar not only kept Arcade alive for years but MOURNED him. I think it says something about how completely lonely Caesar is. Joshua is gone and sure Caesar has his “subjects” but those aren’t people he can confide in or discuss with. Not only because they see him more as a god than a man but due to the Anti-Intellectualism he himself has fostered in the Legion.

And that’s not even getting into Arcade’s own personal tragedy here. Someone who values personal freedom so much being enslaved and offing themselves so brutally at his first opportunity. Seeing everything he believed in everything he hoped for burnt down in flames. “do no harm”, Arcade the philosopher vs Arcade the physician vs Arcade the man.
