I loved the ending, it was just so...not the right or the easy choice to make. It took balls to follow through with it and I really appreciated that over just your typical 'hero rides off into the sunset' ending.
It helps that the the epilogue extra sort of adds a bit more hope (And the Prince's logic for what he did is actually surprisingly sensible, if not entirely justifiable), but I admit I could've taken the ending for just what it was. It's TERRIBLE for Elika and goes against everything her character stood for and I hated having to go through with it but I loved the game for making you do it.
