GTA V Ending (SPOILERS)

*MrTMNT2012* · 09-24-2013, 05:15 PM

GTA V's Ending has got to be one of the most satisfying endings to a Triple A Game ever. Mostly because it lets the player decide how it's gonna end (Ya hear that, Assassins Creed 3?) and the outcomes are all done perfectly for each of the options.

I only did the death wish ending and it was pretty satisfying. It ends better than that disaster of an ending in GTAIV, but I don't think that's a very high bar.

I beat all three ways, and I actually think the third option is the actual ending.
My reason is when playing online, you get to (far as I've gotten) atleast see Trevor. Guess it could be different with different endings to of course.

You can replay the last mission no matter which one you choose so I did all 3. Michael's death was the saddest and really made no sense.

Rockstar even made you feel bad because Michael talks about how Tracey got into College and how his wife accepted him again. Also Franklin turning on Michael was out of character, all the dialogue during the last shoot-out is point on with Michael saying he felt like a son to him.

Trevor dying I was OK with, but I still like ending C the best for obvious reasons.

Mostly because it lets the player decide how it's gonna end (Ya hear that, Assassins Creed 3?) and the outcomes are all done perfectly for each of the options. Spoiler: It all comes down to preference, so my Question is: Out of the three endings for GTA V, which one is your personal definitive ending - A: Kill Trevor, B: Kill Michael or C: Deathwish? First of all, I'd just like to point out that I absolutely love the symbolism in the way the characters die. If you noticed, each character has a signified colour associated with everything they do - Michael's blue, Trevor's red and Franklin's green! With that said, Trevor's death is the definitive ending for me. He gets put down by fire - the very thing that symbolised his unsuspecting psychopathic bloodlust actions and this translates into Franklin's growth as a character when he finally makes his own decisions. It harkens back to GTA IV's dark 'victory comes with sacrifice' ending that really resonated with me throughout the major themes of GTA. Aside from the themes, it also ties all loose ends with Michael's past problems solved and leaves the two characters on their separate journeys - something they wanted to achieve since the beginning with no feds or mobs in their way. Deathwish was too Hollywood 'happy ending' -esc for me... Especially when the plot thickened with the Brad revelation. Finally - whoever that chose the A option, definitely make sure you visit DR. Freidlander's final therapy session. It's absolutely brilliant and everything comes full circle - perfect way to end the game. It literally ends with a Grand Theft Auto! __________________ Fav Quote - 87 Leo: "TURTLES FIGHT WITH HONOUR!"
