History Main / ModularEpilogue

* ''VideoGame/{{Pyre}}'':After finishing the final rite, you learn the ultimate fate of the Commonwealth, then you are able to read the epilogue for every major character, with almost all of them having multiple outcomes depending on the events of the game.

* ''Franchise/StarOcean'' games are will often show different ending scenes per party member depending on their relationships with other characters.

** In ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas'' the ending has a "where are they now" segment for each recruitable character (each one has their own sidequest which upgrades them in some way when it's complete) and a segment that reflects your KarmaMeter and [[spoiler: which faction you sided with in the battle for Hoover Dam]]. The {{DLC}}s all have a similar, self contained, ending for each of them.

* ''VideoGame/Pyre'':After finishing the final rite, you learn the ultimate fate of the Commonwealth, then you are able to read the epilogue for every major character, with almost all of them having multiple outcomes depending on the events of the game.

* ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' has the final battle on [[spoiler:Earth]] unfold for better or worse based on your Effective Military Strength, and lets you see your recruited forces in action and speak with many old companions. Of course, [[HateDumb none of that happens in the last five minutes]], hence the Extended Cut DLC adding a true epilogue that reiterates everything shown during the last mission.

** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'' follows suit, although its epilogue narration only outlines the most major choices in the game (the fates of the Orlesian Empire, the Grey Wardens, the Chantry, mages and Templars, and the Inquisition itself). ''Trespasser'', the final story-based [=DLC=], has a more involved one that includes the fates of all your companions, which vary [[spoiler: depending on whether you chose to keep or disband the Inquisition.]]

* ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'' includes a text-only segmented epilogue in addition to the normal ending cutscenes (the number of [[http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Epilogue_%28Origins%29 options]] is truly vast). The ExpansionPack ''[[VideoGame/DragonAgeOriginsAwakening Awakening]]'' followed suit, albeit [[http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Epilogue_%28Awakening%29 not as energetically]], without "normal" cutscenes and just the epilogue. ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'' follows suit, although its epilogue narration only outlines the most major choices in the game (the fates of the Orlesian Empire, the Grey Wardens, the Chantry, mages and Templars, and the Inquisition itself).

** The [[VideoGame/FireEmblemJugdral fourth game]] was even more in-depth about this. The epilogue is made up of a series of scenes, one for each major kingdom, each showing who ends up suceeding it and who helps with the restoration. This depends on who married who in ''both'' generations of the game (and, in some cases, whether certain NPCs are alive or not), meaning there's a ''massive'' number of possible variations.

* ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 3}}'''s ending consists of three different consecutive scenes determined, respectively, by whether [[spoiler:you sacrificed yourself or chickened out and chose an ally instead]], whether you were good, neutral, or evil on the KarmaMeter, and whether [[spoiler:you infected the Wasteland's water supply]].

* ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' didn't have one of these originally, but with the Extended Cut DLC, the scene for the ending you chose is followed by slides of what various races and squadmates are up to, depending on who survived and certain choices you made earlier in the game.
** Averted with other aspects of the DLC epilogue. There's a narration, a few brief cutscenes showing [[spoiler: post-Reaper War London]], AwesomeMusic, and [[spoiler: a memorial service for Shepard conducted on the Normandy (or a not-so-memorial service if Shepard survived the Destroy ending). Also, if EMS high enough, you get a shot of the Normandy leaving the garden planet to regroup with the rest of the galaxy]].

* ''[[VideoGame/{{Wasteland2}} Wasteland 2]]'''s ending consists pretty much entirely of modular text epilogues for various locations, varying based upon player's actions and choices, and various [=NPC=] characters, also based upon player choices but also based upon whether they were alive or dead and -- for joinable [=NPC=] party members who died while in the party -- ''where'' the character died.

* ''[[VideoGame/{{Wasteland2}} Wasteland 2]]'''s ending consists pretty much entirely of modular text epilogues for various locations, varying based upon player's actions and choices, and various [=NPC=] characters, also based upon player choices but also based upon whether they were alive or dead and -- for joinable [=NPC=] party members who died while in the party -- ''where'' the character died.

* This trope seems to be part of the Black Isle/Troika/Creator/{{Obsidian|Entertainment}}'s SignatureStyle:

** ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic II'' features an optional pre-ending segmented epilogue in the form of the skippable dialogue with the FinalBoss, who shares her prophetic visions with you before dying.

* ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'' includes a text-only segmented epilogue in addition to the normal ending cutscenes (the number of [[http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Epilogue_%28Origins%29 options]] is truly vast). The ExpansionPack ''[[VideoGame/DragonAgeOriginsAwakening Awakening]]'' followed suit, albeit [[http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Epilogue_%28Awakening%29 not as energetically]], without "normal" cutscenes and just the epilogue.

* In ''VideoGame/STALKERCallOfPripyat'' you have slides based on what side missions you completed and how you completed them, as well as slides for the main story.

* ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'' includes a text-only segmented epilogue in addition to the normal ending cutscenes. The ExpansionPack ''[[VideoGame/DragonAgeOriginsAwakening Awakening]]'' followed suit, albeit without "normal" cutscenes and just the epilogue.
