>>9377185It makes sense on paper-- they were in a simulation, and Megatron knew the cheat code to respawn (but still lost). In defeating Megatron in the simulation, Optimus destroyed some of the game npcs. He won, but at the cost of sacrificing his own morals, something he wouldn't have done if the battle had been "real". Thus he refused to accept that he had won at all.
In execution, shit's retarded.
