Life Is Strange 2 - Redemption Ending (High Morality/Surrender)

[@taramathews7391]

He gave up and suffered everything to give Daniel a happy life, and he still suffers for it

[@taramathews7391]

@Autumn Washington Me too. I am ashamed to say I sobbed

[@tomioka6554]

@Autumn Washington less meaningful ending since sean makes a contrasting decision and daniel gets home prisoned or something and followed by authorities. While in this ending,everything is perfect. Someone has to go to prison for people that died or the crimes committed and daniel is free and sean's sacrifice and the ending complete everything. Daniel is free and sean sacrificed his life voluntarily for his brother

[@justsomeoneok-cool]

I have a little brother who is almost 13 years younger than me. I’m an adult, and he is still a little kid. He annoys the living shit out of me, but I would do anything for him in order to keep him safe. He is even more important to me than my parents and my fiance. In conclusion, I’d do the same for him that Sean does for Daniel, no doubt. This game hits different

This is why Parting Ways is superior, Sean doesn't suffer and gets too live a good life with Finn or Cassidy depending on which one you romanced (if you even romanced one of them) and Daniel gets to live a happy life with his grandparents.

[@johnsk.j6894]

Everyone's talking about Sean breaking down in the forest, but what completely finishes me off is Daniel crying in his car. It's almost like he's blaming himself for everything that's happened to Sean, but can't do anything about it anymore. Imagine, after all the trauma you had to witness, you're given a chance to go back and have a "decent" childhood/teenagehood and a "normal" life (normal is very subjective, hence the quotations), but in the back of your mind, throughout all those years, you're aware that it's all because your brother gave up his years for yours. Would Daniel even be able to comprehend what kind of sacrifice this is? Damn...

[@marshmellow_melmel]

he's 25 in this, so after he became an adult, he probably did realize sean's sacrifice. that's probably why he cried in his car because of that guilt he feels. he blamed himself for sean losing an eye, so he probably blames himself for sean losing his twenties as well.

[@silentj624]

I mean at the end of the day Daniel is at fault for all of this this but people blame Sean because he's older even though Sean is also a child. No matter what even when people are clear adults the older person person is held more accountable.

Well it seems Sean became an artist ! He even published a comic while in prison (wich is weird but ig it can happen). I like to think he live a brody style kinda life, he seemed to really look up to him and how he lived on the road. I think Sean will be happy in that ending.

[@SuperDanielao]

It hurts like hell, to say goodbye to your youth together like that. It will never be like it used to be... But eventhough Daniel and Sean feel sadness, they are actually wonderful, rich human beings. Rich of their happy memories when they were young wolves and the love they could feel for eachother. Thinking about the wonderful times, those unforgettable moments, whenever they want to escape for a little while in their new lifes. It hurts, but that shows the happiness they had. Their wounds will heal...living a new life, apart, knowing the other thinks of them, with much happy, loving memories. Not looking back with regret, but with love ~

Did you guys notice that in this ending Sean's fake eye is white but in blood brothers it's black? It's a not so subtle hint at his moral standings.

[@maciejbachorski953]

Of course. Crossing border was always more about Sean's dreams and hopes, than Daniel's. To be more harsh: it was selfish as f*ck. But what is beautiful about this game, is the fact that it's entirely up to you which side you'll choose. Of course I chose Daniel's. It's a tearful sacrifice, but as a person who's got an younger brother, I couldn't even think of any other option.

[@mozzy1268]

This song...... I feel like the guitar represents Sean, and the piano represents Daniel. In the beginning, the game is all about Sean and how he wants to get to Puerto Lobos, hence the guitar in the beginning of the song. Towards the middle, when the piano is introduced to the song, it represents how the two brothers rely on each other for support. In the end, when it's just the piano playing, it represents Daniel, how this ending, and overall journey, is made to have a better life for him.

I didn't want to stop for the cops , but at the same time I was terrified that busting through the border would either lead to daniel and/or sean being killed, or at the very least daniel ending up in a dangerous and immoral life. I surrendered for the same reason that I made every other choice in the game; to protect Daniel. Redemption still made me sad as hell, but at least I can rest easy knowing I did everything I could to keep daniel safe and though it wasnt all happy, everyone got to live their lives free and clear.

This ending broke me so much. The fact Sean goes to prison for 15 years when he hasn't even done anything wrong. He's doing it for his little brother who had killed the police officer and he has to suffer for Daniel's bullshit, but I guess you protect family the best way you can, even if you lose that many years of your life to give your younger brother a normal life without becoming a criminal or running from the police for the rest of your life. But the damage it's done to Sean, just the severe depression and separation from his family is horrible. And I don't understand why they drove off in opposite ways either. Was Sean gone for good? I also romanced Finn, what about him? It's all just so messy.

[@Lila5768]

This game broke me, I hated that they separated like that. I like to think that Sean went to create his art inspired by the adventures they had and became a successful artist but still was in close contact with Daniel and the rest of his family, just so I could feel a little better about this ending but to be honest none of the endings were happy endings just like in real life I guess.

[@adammidderigh4150]

ikr. The more I think about it, the more it kills me. I'm warming to it after thought though.... its heart-breaking that Sean unfairly lost so much of his life in prison like that, but ultimately he did it all for Daniel. This ending may see the brothers separated, but that meant Daniel got a free, moral life i.e what his father and sean wanted for him from the beginning. After gaining his freedom Sean was clearly devastated when reminiscing on time lost with daniel, but in the end he still got at least half his life free and clear; all the while knowing that while his bond with daniel wasnt the same, at least his brother was safe and on the right path despite all they went through.

even if they didnt count the cop murder, they had proof he burned up the church and maybe even killed lisbeth etc. he escaped the hospital and participated in a heist (even if he said no), he worked in an illegal pot farm and maybe stole stuff if u made him to that in the game. he ran away and didnt turn himself in which made him look guilty. its so sad because if i read about all this stuff on the newspaper, i would be scared of sean and wonder why he isnt in jail for his whole life. but now that i played as sean, i feel so bad. media really can twist stuff..

But sean running not only made him look guilty but he ended up commenting a bunch of crimes along the way. Not to mention Daniel was never in danger of ever going to jail so there was no reason to take him to mexico. All taking him to mexico did is deprive him of a chance to have a normal life and force daniel to be a criminal

[@shepherdstar14]

I wanted to like Sean and Daniel and in the end I really did. The things they display in the game I wasn’t 100% about happening in real life, but being that I’m half hispanic and from New York what do I know? There are definitely signs of racism behind every aspect of American life. Even as a hispanic looking mixed man, I have felt it, however I have never had it directly towards me and in a violent emotionally damaging manner. I have been lucky in that regard, however in other parts of the USA and the world I might not be so lucky. What this game taught me is basically never put yourself in a situation where you can get blamed for defending yourself, whatever meanness is done to you take it, wear it like armor, and keep your freedom at all costs. The thing about racism is that you can’t fight it, it will always exist, prejudice will always exist. So instead treat others how you would like to be treated.

[@dzamija922]

Personally, I would never, ever, ever choose this ending, or any ending that would separate them. I understand that it is probably perceived as the most selfless choice that Sean can make, to give Daniel a future where he is not a criminal, but at what cost? Effectively losing your brother, the person closest to you, I don't think I could stand it. No matter what your fate is, the thing that matters the most is that your loved ones are next to you to help you face it, and there's nothing I'd trade that for

[@sippinice4]

They still have some form of contact in the Parting Ways ending. And both get what they want. Daniel wants to stay in the USA and Sean wants to go to Mexico. And they send letters and shit and who knows, maybe they even call each other. But as we see they still remain in some form of contact with each other. So it’s overall the best ending for me. Blood Brothers being a 2nd

[@williamgreene590]

I agree that's why in my opinion this is the best ending. I felt like Sean trying to drag daniel with him to mexico was really selfish in the first place. Sean was the onlly one who could have actually faced jail time but by dragging daniel along with him it deprives Daniel of the chance to ever have a normal life. I understand wanting the two of them to stay together but Daniel is just some confused kid. But sean is the one who freaked out, ran away, started working at a pot farm, stole a car and a whole bunch of other stuff when he could have at least tried to pleade innocent if they never ran away. Sean didnt deserve to go to prision for murdering a cop but he obviously wasn't innocent.

I couldn’t stop crying, I cried, and cried and cried, it was genuinely devastating seeing how Sean had to give up on everything for Daniel to live a more “normal” life and giving up everything also meant giving up seeing his little brother growing up, it’s genuinely heartbreaking seeing how much they changed and how time passed, Sean never got the opportunity to fully see Daniel grow up and couldn’t be there for most crimes he didn’t commit, and seeing Sean breakdown in the forest of episode one was devastating as much as seeing Daniel cry in his car after Sean left, this game genuinely ruined me, I love it but I feel like it really affected my mental health, I wanted to play it again but after this I’m not sure if I can take it

[@daahorse1652]

I liked this ending because Sean went to jail for his brother so that Daniel can have a normal life. What people forget is this ending is YOUR choice meaning you sacrificed everything just for Daniel to have the best life and you choosing to surrender gives him that life. When I first played this I got the Parting Ways ending but I didn't like that ending because 1. Sean and Daniel were seperated and 2. Daniel is under house arrest because of YOUR actions. I get that Sean is a broken man when you choose to surrender but sometimes that's the price you have to pay when you want to give Daniel the happiest life he can have. I'm not saying this is a "good" ending, far from it, this seems like the ending where you sacrifice everything to create peace and that's exactly what you did if you decide to get this ending.

[@deletedwaffles]

It's hard for people to grasp at the situation because it's not their own but if Daniel were my brother I'd sacrifice my life for him to live a normal one. As much as people liked the one where they end up being together in Mexico you can tell life won't ever be just normal for Daniel.

@@mozzy1268 On the other hand, who would believe that a 9 year old killed a full grown man that was both trained and was armed. Blood brothers is a good ending if we don't care about Sean and Dan's moralities, and the separation imo is the worst. In Redemption at least they can meet *whenever they want to* while in the separated ending, they will likely never see each other again considering Sean can never go back to the States even if he wants to. In Redemption, Sean lives on the road and travels the country much like Brody does. Which gives him the freedom to visit his mom, Daniel, their grandparents, Lyla or other friends any time he wants. He's a free man now and not a fugitive. One could argue that he can't get a job but like. He's a damn good artist? Patreon and such exist. There's people who can sustain more than their monthly lives in decent enough apartments by posting their art on the internet, he can more than sustain his life on the road by doing the same, maybe even starting the superwolf comics, which to me is implied he did that. The cover of a superwolf comic is shown during the ending, with Sean's signature on it. He's an artist. Not a mechanic. Him making a living through his art is honestly the best ending for him imo, and not living out his father's dreams out of sentimentality. Esteban would probably be happier knowing his son is a free man who gets to go wherever he wants and gets to make a living through his art, than knowing his son is a fugitive that can never enter the States anymore to visit his loved ones. Esteban might be from Puerto Lobos, but he went to the States for a reason. I don't think he wanted his kids to end up in Puerto Lobos permanently. As I said, Blood Brothers is the lowest morality the brothers can get. Especially since they actually kill to get through the border (well, Daniel does, but you're the one that gives the greenlight.) Not to mention, Daniel doesn't look happy in the flashforward of that ending either, and Sean just looks like an ass. Also, I def don't think Sean was jailed for the cop in the end. 15 years seem very little for "killing" a cop. Like he was told after they got caught at the border, he literally could've pleaded innocent for the cop because there were zero evidence to what happened anyways. What he was in hot shit for, was everything else he did afterwards, like working at an illegal pot farm, stealing a car, going as far as to assault Joey if you make that choice etc. Sure, Sean has to still pay with 15 years of his life for bullshit, but after that he's clean and free to go, not to mention he doesn't force his little brother into it, nor does he corrupt Dan's morality in the process just for his own needs to stay together. Going to mexico doesn't fix their lives. It just cements it as it is. Two fugitive boys with nothing to their name, who now learned that they are willing to kill because their own needs are more important than others'. Far from home. Far from anyone they loved. No chance at even the semblance of a normal life anymore. Redemption let's Dan live a normal life in the end, and lets Sean relearn to live afterwards, as well as potentially let him live his own dreams rather than what he thinks is his father's dream.

In Redemption they may have been separated and lost their bond (which is heartbreaking) but ultimately Daniel got to live a full free and moral life, what their father wanted for them. Sean was definitely screwed over, but he did it for his brother, and ultimately he too got free and clear + still had half his life to live knowing that his debts were paid and Daniel was safe.
