I Became an Extra in a Trash Game

The 44-day battle, during which their swords pierced each other's hearts and the heavens and earth shattered and melted, had finally come to an end.

Hero Kane had vanquished the last great evil, bringing peace to the Senpion Continent.

With that, Kane had finally completed his journey.

Though the continent would never know of his sacrifice and would pass him down to future generations as the Demon King, his six wives would forever remember his achievements.

—Innocent Saga Complete

I stared blankly at the credits scrolling up the screen.

Ending Collection: 66/66.

This is the True Ending? This?

"Are you kidding me right now?"

Did you think I funded my entire maturity savings account for this?!

I shook the monitor, clicked every pixel on the screen with my mouse, searching for a hidden button to a secret route—but it was over. This was the end.

"Ha ha..."

Damn it, you shitty game! Innocent Saga, my ass! Innocent?! You crazy developers!

No matter how hard I racked my brain to figure out where things went wrong, the conclusion was always the same:

It all started with me touching this goddamn awful game.

I should have known better from the start!

I'm such an idiot for obsessing over this trash since its days as a web novel!

In this era of cathartic revenge fantasies, they tear him apart, break him down, and force-feed him nothing but frustration.

And after pouring my heart, soul, time, and money into my precious character—the one who consistently topped polls for "Most Pathetic Protagonist in Modern Fiction"—this is the result I get?

I can't take this anymore.

As both a reader and the top-tier funder of this web novel turned game, I have every right to demand better.

Hello, this is Kang Suho. I'm writing because the ending feels incredibly rushed and lacking in effort, especially considering the game's overall scale and polish...

What made this even more frustrating was the game's surprisingly high quality.

Despite being the debut title from a fledgling studio collaborating with an enigmatic original author, the game itself was remarkably well-executed.

It featured a reasonably large map, hidden items, diverse dungeons and fields—everything that made you wonder how such a small company could have pulled it off.

Honestly, if it weren't for the lackluster endings for the Main Party, the game would have been truly excellent.

As I wrote, my emotions intensified, and I ended up submitting a lengthy, almost petition-like message to the feedback box. Afterward, I visited the General Gaming Forum and removed the filters, only to find other "nu-reong-i" players who had reached the ending were also barking about their dissatisfaction.

Hey, what's with this ending? Is it because I'm on my first playthrough with the Main Party? Will it be different if I do multiple playthroughs?

└[ Just ditch the Main Party and go for the Normal Ending with NPCs. It's better. ]

└[ Bullshit. ]

└[ ㅋㅋ ]

Noobs who just bought the game wouldn't know, but the original novel this game is based on also has an ending that's practically a total massacre. At least in the game, all the heroines survive. In the original novel, over half of them die.

└[ You actually read all that, you gay bastard? ]

└[ Nah, just paid for the final chapter. ]

Reading someone else's post is making me angry all over again.

How many protest comments did I leave for the original author, who kept feeding us nothing but frustration until the very end?

That's why I clung to the belief that the game would have a survival ending. I dove into the game like a seasoned veteran, exploring every corner of the map, only to find the True Ending was this pathetic mess.

I raised my hand, rubbed my face a few times, and placed my fingers on the keyboard.

Let's at least send a protest email. Who knows, maybe they'll release a marriage ending as DLC. I'm still holding onto hope...

Password

I stared at the email that suddenly popped open on my monitor.

Wait, why did it open on its own?

The email page had opened without me clicking anything. I froze, my eyes darting across the screen.

We are well aware of the issue you've raised, but our intervention has reached its limit.

We sincerely hope he finds happiness this time...

—Rachel

Rachel?

If this was Rachel, she was Kane's first... wife...

Suddenly, an irresistible wave of sleepiness washed over me, and I closed my eyes.
