Seeing the penitent one ascend to the equivalent of heaven and finally be relieved of his penance while seeing everyone he helped along the way is such a heartwarming ending to an otherwise bleak and depressing game.
Remember when that pious person was so super devoted, but ended up getting a weird divine punishment to endure? Ha ha ha, I know, that's literally everyone you meet, pretty much
"To the cradle of all blessings, safe under our watchful eyes" I love how Deogracias clarifies that the Penetant One will not only be ascended into heaven but also eternally protected by those he cared for in life
I don t think this is was an action of the miracle, the penitent is taken somewhere else by the angels, away from the influence of the miracle because in the other ending the Penitent is merged with the incarnation of devotion, and that is probably the will of the miracle. In this ending he just escapes that.
Sure there will be some future story dlc but i think this ending is actually the one that this guy deserve. As i watched i remembered all the journey i took with him to this point He deserves to be let him rest in peace forever now.
The fact that the Penitent One was resurrected again. Also the fact that the Penitent One was always revived even when fighting the Miracle. This heavenly place above the Processions. This all makes me think that there is a higher supreme deity. Higher even than the High Wills who aided the Penitent One.
It seems that the games are partially based on the doctrine of Gnosticism, with the High Wills and Miracle as analog to Yaldabaoth/the Demiurge, and the Anunciada as Sofia.
@@NIHIL_EGO Just as Deogracias was the Miracle's messenger in the first game, it seems to me like Anunciada was sent directly by the Miracle from on high to help the Penitent One stop the birth of the Devotion Incarnate. Perhaps the entire point of allowing the birth of the Last Child was to act as the Penitent One's final act of redemption, as per Ending A.
@@AdderTudewhy would the Miracle do that lol The Incarnate Devotion is the Miracle in a physical form, killing it will kill the Miracle, which is exactly what happens
The Incarnate Devotion is the People's belief in the Grievous Miracle made manifest (The Anthropormic Personification of the people's faith in the Miracle), not the incarnation of the miracle itself. @@Padre_des_los_penitentes
My theory is that Miracle is not uniform and more like a force of nature that can be used by deital beings like high wills and while high wills acting in selfish intersts it is actually The Twisted One who ascended to the status of deity through sheer power of beliefe from his devotees after being living religious icon. And being Big JC analog in Cvstodia and i assume from that kinda chill dude he aids the Penitent One letting him tap int the power of Miracle.
Crisanta is not in the painting, and the ribbon seen flying at the end is part of her sword. Also Eviterno says that her sword was the begining of everything. We will see her again for the best or for the worst.
there's something amiss in the sword, though. The ribbons burned out during her fight vs the Penitent one to reveal an actual sword, glowing purple. While in this game the ribbons just take the form of a sword but are empty. I wonder what happened to the sword itself?
@@suleymanbabak1973 you are right. I Did not notice that. Well probably it was destroyed the same way as Mea Culpa when they the defeated the High Wills. And the Crimson Bindings are something separate from the sword itself.
@@ericlecarde In her description it says ,,...she held her steel up, wrapped as it was in crimson ..." "... a final sacrifice bestowed to its future wielder" I doubt that they ment Eviterno as the future wielder, since there was nothing inside the crimson wrapping Edit: Maybe they show Crisantas story in a dlc leading up to her fight with Eviterno
I want a Blasphemous 3 starring Crisanta. But the thing is, who will she be fighting against now that the miracle's gone? Unless, we're fighting the infernal for some reason.
@@str8apem88 she will fight the Penitent One after he merges with The Miracle as per bad ending. Otherwise there could be a clue in future DLCs, the incense of envoy quest items mention a "Great Grace" or something like that which reigns supreme.
@bollyblinds126 every character we see in the heavens have completed some sort of penitence or is saved from the clutches of the miracle. Crisanta may need to complete hers to ascend.
@@str8apem88 my theory is that the Miracle is never gone for good. It reforms whenever the wishes of the people reach a critical point. It is kinda like the Idea of Evil in Berserk. It derives from the need of the people to have a reason for their suffering, and ends up taking a sentient form. We also know that the developers are fan of Berserk (there are similarities and they have put an easter egg based on Berserk in the first game).
@@str8apem88 I hope they make DLC because they can't give us that little teaser of Crisanta's ribbon floating away in the wind and not make additional content. It was actually surprising to find her body in Eviterno's room, having been killed by her own sword.
What makes me kinda feel suspicious about this ending is why the three visages were in heaven too since they're literary High Wills' servants and they tortured and demonized their fourth brother as the traitor since he know High Wills' true nature as uncaring, malevolent god?
There's nothing suspicious here, the dream is holy and older than the Miracle and by extension, the High Wills, and where the Penitent is lifted up to, is a kingdom that's higher than the dream, so it's most likely the place the Anunciada talked about, which would mean that this is technically a True Heaven, beyond time and space, and if this is the canon ending, then the Penitent, now freed from his Penitence, is and will now be together with every single being he was guided by in his journey, in a place that's neither at the beginning, middle, or end of time, for all of eternity. Which leaves Crisanta, where there will probably be a DLC just for her, where she will eventually get into that kingdom as well with the guide of the Penitent now turned Saint, either that or it's a plot twist.
Does anyone have the Theory like me? My theory is, the woman with the Golden Helmet is Crissanta. She have golden helmet, those sword where she had were those two part that at the moment she died, her left hand was stab the sword on herself. She kinda have the pretty same design with the woman who create The Kneeling Stone. And remember that the last position at death of Crissanta was pretty much the same. So I think that she "have complete" her mission. The red ribbon fy in the sky might be a hint for the next game. The MC would be Crissanta and maybe can explain more about herself with her sword.
you ask as if you/anyone understood any of the game's lore up to this point All these high level jargon and made-up logic and stuff made this game's lore the most messed up thing for me. I understood that you're in penitence and that you kill stuff and you atone for something and the rest is just random crap that you might come up with when you take a high dose of heroin or eat some random mushroom
@@Ryuudo123 It's one of these games that doesn't tell you all the story and lore directly. You have to piece it together through item descriptions, dialogue, and what happens in the game. Doesn't mean it's all nonsense.
i think in blasphemous 2 i prefer ending B because the Miracle works in mysterious ways and can never really ve erased (in my opinion) besides this ending is way too much of a happy one
I'm not too keen on this ending. Something feels off, like too good to be true. My interpretation of the story is that the Miracle, in its divinity, can't bring himself to comprehend the material world; same way we can't comprehend its will. It is always trying to manifest itself, but for each good deed, there is always a gruesome involuntary catch (like the long awaited child who's then born deformed and with a black wing). That's why it is always trying to produce an offspring, but every attempt is more grotesque than the previous one. So having the Penitent ascend in the end is no different than all those miracles... For there is always a catch.
Question: Am I the only one who calls bullshit on this ending? I expect expansions andDLC will reveal that the Penitent One was tricked by the floating lady into a prison so the miracle could be left alone from his power.
Why? High Will itself said that the dream realm existed before it, it's just that High Will has the most influence in it. the Penitent one and Crisanta has killed the High Will and the Penitent one has killed Incarnate Devotion, this has removed all of High Will and Miracle's influence over Dream Realm, and through those dreamed kingdoms exist the canvas of light and time, where all of his friends exist.
@@hainguyn948 Thing is, we thought the High Wills created all this malformation and monsters yet even after they were killed, we wake to more monsters and beasts, implying there are bigger forces at play here. Furthermore, what we know of the Miracle and this new world, apparently 1000 years later, is too little to asusme somehting this idelic is even possible. We saw the twisted one fade away last game yet here he is again. Also, to assume the Miracle is not stronger or otherwise influencing things is naive, given we know precious little about it. Then there's the Penmitent's new arm has not been explained or have had any significance so I am suspicious that this ist he end from a narrative perspective. This feels way too idelic too good to be true. It seems as if the miracle basically created this new child to be killed and the penitent go to heaven? In a world as twisted as that of Blasphemous? I think not.
This realm is not under the influence of the Miracle though, but the realm of the High Dramatist, the Supreme Grace. Anunciada said that this was the holiest of places, and that the narrator at the epilogue said, as the TPO is being lifted up through the heavens, that this was "through dreamed kingdoms" meaning this realm is beyond the Eternal Procession and the Dream created by the Miracle.
I heard the negative thoughts on B2 and I can see why people did not enjoy it as much as part 1. I'd include myself in it. The writing feels both a little too on the nose compared to B1 while at the same time being denser, but also lacking a bit of the mystic depth the first game produced. It is not BAD, but it can't quite live up to my enjoyment of part 1.

no joke, seeing Deosgracias hold our coffin and the text on the altarpiece of The Guide made me teary-eyed.
Honestly though, I think they will add a DLC later on with the actual true ending. There's just something about this ending. It feels almost too easy.
Remember when that pious person was so super devoted, but ended up getting a weird divine punishment to endure?
Ha ha ha, I know, that's literally everyone you meet, pretty much
The Penitence is thus complete is the hardest sentence ever spoken
"To the cradle of all blessings, safe under our watchful eyes"
I love how Deogracias clarifies that the Penetant One will not only be ascended into heaven but also eternally protected by those he cared for in life
That's not deogracias speaking.
I think it's one of the higher beings we know nothing about.
a good rest he deserves by the watch of all whom he care for, a kindest action of the miracles I think
I don t think this is was an action of the miracle, the penitent is taken somewhere else by the angels, away from the influence of the miracle because in the other ending the Penitent is merged with the incarnation of devotion, and that is probably the will of the miracle.

It's not the Miracle's doing
Most beautiful and sad ending in this year's gaming history 😢

@@bolly126 but that would make little sense as the penitent one is stronger lore wise
this ending is basically "the true penance is the friends we made along the way."
No.
If this one follows the first game's footsteps, this will not be the true ending.
Hopefully there’s a dlc like the first one.
We just have to be patient. It was hell making what was given to us, we can't expect more from them so soon.
Crisanta dlc or her own game soon? Maybe she'll have to fight this world's version of Hell.
I really think this time the penitence is thus complete

This is such a warm pat on the back after a very long and viscous struggle. A+ ending
Seeing all the characters you've me through out both of the games brought me to tears
"The Penitence is thus complete.."
This is so beautiful I’m gonna cry
Hearing adam howden in that last speech is so beautiful 😭 i love it
Penitence complete, until the next game :)
What a beautiful ending it lives rent free in my head
What makes me kinda feel suspicious about this ending is why the three visages were in heaven too since they're literary High Wills' servants and they tortured and demonized their fourth brother as the traitor since he know High Wills' true nature as uncaring, malevolent god?
It’s real unity, eternal resting place source of all good and evil
There's nothing suspicious here, the dream is holy and older than the Miracle and by extension, the High Wills, and where the Penitent is lifted up to, is a kingdom that's higher than the dream, so it's most likely the place the Anunciada talked about, which would mean that this is technically a True Heaven, beyond time and space, and if this is the canon ending, then the Penitent, now freed from his Penitence, is and will now be together with every single being he was guided by in his journey, in a place that's neither at the beginning, middle, or end of time, for all of eternity.
Which leaves Crisanta, where there will probably be a DLC just for her, where she will eventually get into that kingdom as well with the guide of the Penitent now turned Saint, either that or it's a plot twist.
TLDR, beside you don't even answered my question of why the visages are in heaven.
I recognize a lot of the faces in the ending. Everyone we helped in the first game. However, I don't see gemino.
The real miracle was the friends we made along the way !
So what the point of the little scene at 2:08?
future dlc i gues like the first game
Probably crisanta
Crisanta is going back. She sacrificed herself to revive the penitent one
It's one of the ribbons from Crisanta's sword. Notably, she seems to have been absent from the final scene, so perhaps she'll be revived?
@@toastman1992 Remember penitent one also had one ribon

No. She is the Lady of the Six Sorrow from Blasphemous 1.
Se nota que no jugaste el primero.
where is crisanta? i had a feeling she's not actually dead and still alive somehow
Someone can explain this ending?
The Penitent was already dead before (when Crisanta killed him), and now he shall rest, for the Penitence is now, completed
the Penitent One had completed the challenge of the Holy Grace and now he will join the Heaven and become a Saint
