I don't have much against the epilogue by itself, it was ok. Other than that line about Ange getting cancer, I don't know how that was even necessary other than wanting it to be as tragic as possible.

Overall, though, episode 8 was a big disappointment for me. I already talked a lot about how I disagreed with a lot of the themes presented here, and I wouldn't mind that much it was only a difference in opinion, I wasn't too mad about not knowing what was in Eva's diary in particular. But the author had the subtlety of a brick, and was very insistent on repeating his ideas again and again. Worse of all (and I might be reading too much into this) he felt he had to apply it not only to the story in game but to the experience of the players as well, such as:

-Not confirming that Shannon/Kanon/Beatrice is the culprit, I don't even know if they are one and the same
-Not giving a concrete motive
-Games 1-4 haven't been solved, nor are games 5-6
-Other stuff I can't remember

Sure there are hints, but it made it worse because they allowed me to speculate and the result is a whole lot of nothing. Oh, you want to more fully understand the story? Too bad. All those lingering questions... don't matter at all.
