Come to think of it,I don't know which ending you got, but actually finding the lance - the right lance - matters a lot.
Sarah's fate is a bit of a bummer, but the alternative is that she dies right on the island, either shot by the Duchess or in some other way, I don't remember
Sarah lost a hand in the Longinus puzzle. If Loui does that, he dies in the end, because the trap is poisoned. So logically, Sarah was doomed either way from the very beginning.
Oh, that is quite interesting - how do you find out that fact in-game?
Which one? That she lost her hand in that puzzle? She outright tells you that.
That the puzzles is poisoned? Well, you don't unless you solve it wrong and then just roll with it until the game ends.

I'm afraid I didn't play dragon ball, so I'm not quite sure what you're referring to. If you're talking about the confrontation with Mortimer, there are several ways the game can end:I did pick the right Great Macguffin (at least, I'm pretty sure), so I understand things might have gone differently otherwise, but fuck me there's no excuse for the dragon ball standoff either way.
- If you have the wrong spear, he possesses you.
- If you have the right spear, you can kill him. You still need an opening to use it, which you can get in two ways:
-- You ally with the twins, so they "battle" Mortimer (is that what you're calling the dragon ball stand off?);
-- You don't ally with the twins, but find the magic book, which you use as a decoy to get him close;
- If you have the right spear, but no opening to use it, Mortimer still possesses you;
- As I've said before, if you misused the circle puzzle, you die (I don't remember if you get the chance to take out Mortimer in that case, I think you do);
- Finally, you can make a deal with the father demon in the dream world, I don't remember what happens then.
Then there are different permutations of all of the above, leading up to ~30 ways the final scene can play out. There's a video on YT collecting all the endings, see for yourself.

I think the contradicting clues are actually on purpose, you have to separate truth from hearsay.The prominently placed one in the altar surrounded by fire, spear-shaped, copper rimmed, fish. My guess was boar spear detail was a red herring like gold. Although I thought it was a bit buggy: I read Piaggi's notes claiming boar-spear shape, but my notes said a spear-shape, and then Piaggi talked to me about some other detail, but then my notes now said boar-shape AND spear shape...
