Rereading TGCF, again. And I found something.
When Xie Lian and Hua Cheng revealed their identities in the beginning and they talked, there was this whole conversation:
The two stared at the holey ceiling of Puqi Shrine in amiable silence, and Hua Cheng spoke up again.
“You know, we’ve only known each other for so many days. Is it alright for you to say so much to me?”
Xie Lian puffed again and waved his hand. “What’s the problem? Whatever. Those who have known each other for decades can become strangers in a day. We met by chance, and we may part by chance. If we like each other then we shall continue to meet; if we don’t then we shall part. There’s no banquet in the world that doesn’t come to an end, so I’ll say what I want to say.”
And then at the end:
Those words were like a fatal blow. The tears in Xie Lian’s eyes could no longer be restrained, and they came pouring out.
Like he was hanging on to the last thread of his life, he pleaded, “You said you would never leave me.”
However, Hua Cheng replied, “There is no banquet in this world that doesn’t come to an end.”

If you weren't crying already, apparently Hayden said in the Q&A that the "I am not your failure" line was the little bit of Anakin left in Vader trying to absolve Obi-Wan of guilt.

i will never forgive naughty dog or neil druckmann for making joel into the softest, most endearing old man in part 2 just to kill him brutally…
YOU’RE TELLING ME THIS IS WHO YOU DECIDED TO KILL?!
the man who’s house turned into a living memorial after he died because everyone in town loved him…
the man who carves wooden figurines and guitars for a hobby…
the man who sits lonely in his home in jackson for years after his fight with ellie…
you’re gonna kill him by bludgeoning in front of his kid?
y’all are sick and i’ll be sending the bill for my therapy

I hate how voltron writers completely discarded the fact that Lance was the only one who actually wanted to pilot voltron, being a pilot was his DREAM
when they joined voltron shiro just felt obligated to save the world, pidge wanted to leave, Hunk was just an engineer, and Keith was a dropout, but Lance worked so hard to be a pilot he WANTED to be one,
and the writers decided that it would make sense for him to completely drop that dream to be a farmer because he "matured"???? GRAHHH
