It might keep the original end but MC survives, just no one else knows about it to keep the vibe of the orginal ending, but at least we the readers will know he survive!
But I'm sure there are some who are calling everyone who wants the End revised "wimpy crybabies who can't take not having a happy ending" for sure LOL
I'm actually pissed off with the WN ending, not because of what happened to the MC, but how sloppily everything got wrapped up. The entire handful of hundreds of chapters of the WN introduced a lot of characters, from one-bit characters that were only present for an arc or two, to some that appear even after their arc has ended, helping the MC in their own capacity (Aion and Flo chiefly among them). I wanted to know what happened to them! While the ending gave some info about what some are up to (only for a few of the major and recurring characters), the rest are just subsumed to "they all lived happily ever after, thanks to MC's efforts".
Another thing that pissed me off is the resolution of some of the complications introduced in the later arcs. It'd be spoilerrific if I include them here, but I am not satisfied with the resolution given to them. Like, as if the author got tired of writing the story and went "meh, this will do".
I don't mean to say the author did a bad job, or even that the ending ruined their hard work. I am just pissed because it could have been way greater had the final few arcs been handled with more care.
