Treasure loves their bittersweet endings. Green's death in Gunstar Heroes. The split between the Guardian Heroes in Advance Guardian Heroes, and even this and Ikaruga.

@GreentheGunstar ....ok...all I know is that stone like is pretty dumb enough to think that humans can get it right to make the certain future that won't make it destroy the species...it's pretty much wasting its time. Because as long as there's one fool to make some stupid decision that messes up the future, it's a big loop-hole from here on out. The humans won't know what to do to avoid being erased again, all they know is that as a species they move on with time.

Maybe based on this storyline, the game has a theme of nature.

Do you think the Stone-Like could be the secret fifth gem of Golden Silver? \_\
-
You know what I think? (>_> This may sound PRETTY retarded but) I think that the Stone-Like's gripe with humanity is that humans want to live in peace when the Stone-Like is trying to make them soldiers against Outer Space. Okay, yes, I'm kinda tryin to connect RS to Sin and Punishment series, but think about it. Stone-Like never explains fully about his wiping out humanity, and in S&P, Isa blames his dad's turning into a Rufiian on 'God,' who might very well be the Stone-Like.

Damn Stone-Like! You're just putting us all in a loop! D>:
Just kidding. What's actually happening is that this future can occur any number of times as Stone-Like resets humanity by bringing Creator back into the past. This future could occur all over again (and has at least once) which is why Creator's fossilized self is present in this timeline. Other possibilities could occur as well, the "hope" described by Creator including the world of Ikaruga in which Stone-Like is finally destroyed.

@Kiyosuki Lol at least Stone-Like gets what it deserves in 'Ikagura'. Shinra finally ends the never-ending cycle of metempsychosis by ridding the universe of that pretentious, egotistical, octahedral pain-in-the-butt.
'Radiant Silvergun' is all about cycles. 'Ikagura' is about breaking cycles.

@sacrisesma No, that would be Chrono Trigger DS' secret ending. This is actually good.
-
@Ebb1993 I believe I heard that in the supplementary material, Shinra acceded to heaven for his act. So it's more of a Bittersweet ending, and it fitted with the theme "I will not die until I achieve something"
-
@ShadowWolf3998 SO I guess in Ikaruga, what all the Buddhist symbolism meant was Shinra serving as the person the Stone Like judged. So maybe when it was destroyed, it was accepting that Shinara had proved humanity's worth. The text after Shinra sacrifices himself way support that.
Also, the Guardian of the Earth is pretty damn pretentious in this if you think about it. How is humanity supposed to learn, if they don't even know what mistake they're supposed to be learning from or trying to avoid? Its like the Earth's rerunning the universe's greatest practical joke over and over. lol

Ok that makes more sense now, and I can see the connection with the young girl and boy in Ikaruga (forget their names Shinra??) I dont think it makes a game bad at all if it has a downer ending, just because you go to great lenghts to beat these games don't expect the typical happy ending
