To this day I wish Deathwish ended with just that: death. The worlds richest elite and top government agents prove too much for the trio and they all die honorably the way they lived.
I think A is the most realistic. You have two Government agents ordering you to kill someone who you cant even fully trust yet and is a sociopath, while C is something that never would happen realistically, 3 men vs over 100 mercs, and then doing 3 high profile assasinations
İ think ending C is too perfect, stereotype happy end. But still, it is hard to kill any one of them. Ending A is realistic, Franklin wouldn't trust Devin, because he didn't pay him for those cars, backstabbed him. But he would like to get defense from FBI. In real life it is impossible to kill all of your enemies and get out clean. Ending B is the most dramatic, student kills his teacher after he got everything thanks to him, backstabber is being backstabbed, etc.
I think they should have altered the original plan for Franklin with Lamar. Have Lamar die instead. He steps in front of Franklin and gets gunned down. It shows that he's more loyal than he lets off.
You missed a very important point . When choosing option A and killing Trevor , Michael is more than eager to finish this off while in option B , Trevor is disgusted by the fact that Franklin kills his father figure and condemns him. That shows a lot about Michael's character and mostly importantly proves Trevor right . Trevor never betrayed anyone and sacrificed everything for the crew , while Michael (by choosing A) betrays Trevor one more time .
Yeah ending b is the better of the two endings, Franklin is back to being honest and not a liar like Michael. He fucked the fucker himself. Michael had it coming to him, the time has come for him to pay for what he did. He’s the reason Franklin was even forced into that position. Trevor was harmless, killing him is just a reality check for the bad world we live in.
@@longdicklamar8674 It doesn’t make sense for Franklin to kill Michael. Franklin was closer to Michael than to Trevor. Michael also helped Franklin a lot too. If it was to kill Michael, let Trevor do it, but Franklin has no solid reason to. Michaels a fucker, but so is Trevor. Trevors a worse fucker. Trevor killed Johnny Klebetz, so Trevor had it coming to him.
@@longdicklamar8674 killing Micheal is worse because his life just starts to get his life together and has a family which originally is why he betrayed him to protect his family Trevor has nothing to lose and at this point Trevor hates Micheal so they aren’t friends and doesn’t fit Franklin as a character to choose Michael
Trevor is supposed to symbolize the players worst side and yeah he's a psychopath but I found him to be one of the most interesting because throughout the game there are sutle hints to his life before he became a hardened criminal that never really get explored. Leaving the player to fill in blanks and try to piece together what made the guy the way he is.
To be fair I think he always wanted to drop a nuke, while he was a air force pilot. He wasn't 100% sane to begin with, also huffing petrol and doing all sorts of hard drugs probably didn't make him any better, not to mention all the past trauma he has went through.
The mission where Devin Weston sends guys to kills Micheals Family, & the one where they all saved Lamar, really shows you why you can’t kill either Trevor or Micheal. Best option is to save Both of them & just keep all 3 playable character..
Very good analysis of the game. I think the reason Ending C is too perfect and an obvious no brainer is because originally Franklin would die, but was scrapped due to complications. This version of C would have made all 3 ending consequential I believe, but as it stands I agree the optional ending system is quite broken.
I feel the kill trevor ending is the best, because tbh trevor is a dangerous psychopath and its fitting that the one who kicked things off and cause most the problems was killed in the end. Not only that but i like how much more gritty the ending is, i hate how deathwish is all sunshine and rainbows as they tie up all loose ends and everyones friendly, the real world isnt so friendly and nothing ever ends that neatly, it feels like its a happy ending for a story that didnt feel like it needed one. Btw i never have franklin pull the trigger, i feel its more fitting with micheal being the one to end trevor
Yeah but Michael helps Franklin killing him but trevor refuses and in north Yankton heist Trevor was meant to die but brad got in front of Trevor causing brad to die and dave had made a deal with Micheal, (Trevor gets buried,brad in prison, Michael living a normal life) but kinda went wrong but still tried to betray him
Trevor might not be a nice guy, and Michael might be a terrible friend for leaving Trevor behind without telling him and taking all the money with him. But I 100% disagree with you option C all the way! 😀✊
Option C is the best one. But Option A is also a good choice. There is no way anyone would choose ending B. Killing Trevor is good because he killed Johnny Klebitz!!!! He killed my cowboy Johnny!!! I can't leave him like this!!! I finally have the chance!!!
You can say that Ending C turns Michael into a stereotype and he doesn’t learn anything from the events. Such as his family being fixed, but I disagree a bit. His family didn’t get fixed but rather in progress to be fixed. In fact, Ending C was to solidify the fact he protected his Family by offshoring Devin Weston after he had Merryweather raid his house. Ending C also was important in another regard: putting Michael’s past to rest. He’s wanted to do this since the prologue. The difference between then and Ending C is he gets a second opportunity in doing so the right way. Rather than backstabbing Trevor, they get to “bury the hatchet” and continue with their lives. As for Ending B: it seems off at first, but depending on how you look at the motifs of GTA V, this could be viewed as Franklin wanting to break the cycle he’s gotten into. Even talking to Lamar about “pyramid schemes” is exactly what he gotten into. By killing Michael, it did a few things: -it broke the cycle of the pyramid scheme -Michael learned how Trevor felt when he was betrayed all those years ago. (When Franklin was the one who was being taught, the Student became the teacher). -Franklin himself learned what happens when he betrays those who cared for him. Unlike Trevor’s ending, where some people hated him, everyone practically hates him for killing Michael. Except one notable person: Lamar. In a way, Ending B was a punishment to both Franklin and Michael. However, Franklin gets the chance to learn, and it’s up to interpretation whether or not Franklin becomes like Michael and will betray Lamar or he learns from it and won’t. In fact, Franklin calls Lamar one last time before the final scene concludes. (Sorry for the wall of text)
I’d choose A after Trevor is so angry and found out Brad is dead and left Michael die in bury the hatchet also after killing Trevor gets the most money extra 20 million is 60 million for total I’d choose B after choosing a worst crew and lowest minimum pay in the big score less than 10 million I’d choose C for real against the enemies such as Devin Weston stretch Wei Cheng and Steven Haines
To me ending C does make sense in a way, because the deathwish choice makes sense for Franklin. Its the mission where we save Lamar, and then Franklin decides to be an AH about it throwing it in Lamar's face. I like to think that that was a lesson for Franklin and that that was a moment he thought about a lot watching Trevor and Michael fight. Before the mission started, Franklin seemed like he was losing the concept of loyalty slowly, the way he talked about Lamar to his ex, and then finally at the end of the mission when it's awkward between Lamar and him and then Lamar openly questions what Franklin means by loyalty, and that he has none to his face. They didn't have to make it a "beautiful sunset" ending is what I'm saying. That deathwish choice made sense for Frank, IF he gets where Lamar is coming from. That the player can only decide for themselves.
You missed an important point, killing Trevor may be the best ending for the world, as Trevor needs to die, but by doing this, Franklin learns from Micheal to be like him, a rich man, but alone, who would betray anyone, however, killing Micheal (my favorite character) we see, Franklin learned from Trevor, notice his phone call to Lamar aftwards
Trevor doesn't need to die. He already have a death wish on himself, and most probably wouldn't survive. (Suicide) why must Franklin listen to some corrupted FBI guy? We all know the FBI or whatever is corrupted. And hence that must be no. 1 priority to save America
I know everyone disagrees with this and dosent want to see it. Ending B isn’t a bad thing and does make sense since arguably Michael is the most evil of the three and Franklin learns how Michael betrayed his friends and could have been using Franklin Michaels past finally catches up to him and as you said Michael isn’t a great father and doesn’t deserve a good life and the story comes full circle with Trevor being betrayed in the beginning by Michael, a person who got him into the business and then gets killed by Franklin a kid who he helped. In the beginning and the end Trevor is betrayed and how I do agree with you that the gameplay after ending b isn’t great, I still feel this as a memorable ending and underated. I like ending b for its poetic story behind it. As with ending A Michael repeats history and the ending feels underwhelming. With Trevor’s death, Michael weakens his relationship with his family. With ending C feeling the most satisfying, doesn’t feel consistent and a little too good like you said, a little campy. While ending B has been described as a movie ending that makes sense story wise as a betrayal and prove that actions always have consequences.
I still think option C is better If option C is not ur goto, I don't wanna be anywhere near you. I also LOVE that there are no consequences and Bad endings always piss me off Although charachter development is important for story, It's not worth a sad ending
It's not the characters' deaths that make the ending a and b undesirable, it's the betrayal by their own best friends is what makes them terrible endings, it gets even worse when you realize that all their enemies are alive. I always pick ending c because I could never bring myself to betray any of the protagonists. If rockstar wanted to kill them, they should have get them killed by someone else, not by the protagonists who are best friends throughout the story.
I always felt like if you were going to choose to kill one of the two it should've been Michael. Options A and B show you a lot about who Michael, Trevor and Franklin are as people, and it always stuck with me that Michael will help murder Trevor, but when Trevor is presented the same choice, even when he knows that Michael spat on any concept of a mutual loyalty or friendship between the two, even knowing he is directly responsible for the death of the only other person besides Michael Trevor is shown to care about(excluding Mrs.Madrozzo), Trevor not only won't help get rid of the man at the root of all of his problems, but he's enraged and disgusted with Franklin for doing it. Trevor objectively does worse things throughout the main game than either of his partners but when it comes down to it, Trevor has morals(bare bones and whacked out as they are) and sticks to them, while Michael is revealed to be at his core a man with no principles, who holds nothing sacred but money. I really like that rockstar gave the player a chance to make such an impactful choice at the end, but I can't help but feel like the player punished for choosing anything but death wish, which never sat well with me.
Ending A- Most realistic, Micheal doesn’t take responsibility, Franklin has character development, Micheal helps Franklin, Emotional ENDING B- Unrealistic, Trevor doesn’t want to speak to Franklin, cruel, heartless ENDING C- Realistic, Micheal finally fixes his relationship with his family, Trevor and Micheal end their “rivalry”, The bad guys get killed
I think option B and C are the only good endings narratively because both Micheal and Franklin both learn lessons and take responsibility for their actions and shows Trevor that loyalty pays off. I believe option A is a bad ending because Trevor who has been betrayed by Michael twice dies and Michael doesn't learn anything leading to Michael potentially betray others later on and Franklin also doesn't learn anything because Michael is his mentor and if the mentor doesn't learn anything how could he teach his student. Overall I think C is the best ending B is still a good ending and A is a bad ending
B is a bad ending, you get nothing out of it, you actively loose stuff and the characters act out of character C is just a fairytale where you take care of all the problems in one mission And a makes the most sense, Trevor and Lamar nearly caused every problem in the game, Lamar with his stupidity and Trevor with his ... Trevorness, he's a liability
@@serifthegodofinsanity8823 no, Micheal caused everything that happened in GTA 5. B is the best ending, and closing to the series. I feel like all HD era games should end sadly, going the opposite way if the originals where crime and screwing people over made you successful. Even Rockstar made fun of their own formula in GTA 5. I think GTA 5 is the anti-gta game, especially considering its difficulty and how its story is done. So, an ending where the bad guys lose and everyone and anyone invoked in the business gets screwed for the things they did is fitting.
@@channel45853 trevor had a new life, he was the one who came back causing massive issues with the agency, he was the one who pissed off the chinese getting michael kidnapped, he was the one who stole a NUCLEAR WEAPON, He was the one who pissed off merry weather. he kidnaped martin madrozos wife, michael and martin were good and had made peace but trevor did a trevor. Every single one of the enemies in that final mission (minus stretch that was lamars stroke of genius) was there because trevor all of them. michael made a mistake yes, but that was one that happened decades ago that no one except trevor actually cared about
@@serifthegodofinsanity8823 you're missing the point, Michael used Trevor since day one, and by the end of the game when he's outlived his usefulness, he gets killed, Michael himself pulls the trigger if you don't do it
Hi Lugo never know you like the GTA series, me too specially San Andreas. When I have a better PC I will play this game. In my opinion my favorite ending is C. All lives.
In addition I'm going to say this. with regards to ending C causing Michael to end up as a stereotype with no character development, one could say that's the very point. Otherwise if you don't like that option then I will say that the time that Michael spends away from his family played into the healing and it wasn't just beating up a yoga teacher. As for Franklin's ark in ending C it's actually sort of painfully obvious that it was meant for him to go from a very flaky character to one who would die for his remaining friends. Through the entire game his aunt and Lamar are lecturing him about his lack of loyalty to family and brotherhood and such. Option C give some the ark by proving this wrong. However I would suggest that if you don't believe there is an arc for any character and option C then it is simply the point for their not to be an ark as these people are supposed to be superficial cardboard cutouts in the most superficial City on the planet.
I chose c first time i played because 1. It's the conon ending 2. All 3 characters are alive 3. U get rid of people who are worse than Michael and Trevor such as Devin weston Steve haines Wei cheng stretch 4. Neither of the characters will hate each other after this as in you can still do hangouts Also why do some people think deathwish kills Franklin in that Devin cutscene Franklin literally says you got a deathwish am I suppose to kill you
@@nau.000 agree, micheal is my favorite character but even if you hate him, b is so out of character for frankiln, he’s doing this for a person who hasnt paid him. Plus micheal treated him better than his own kids. Plus you lose a lot endgame content. It would be better if Trevor replaced franklin
I have a very, very bad explanation to why he must have left. Either his account got hacked, he died IRL or he forgot the password/credentials needed to log on to his account. I don't know if anyone knows what happened to his discord server, but if you do it would help a lot to know. Also there is simply no communicaiton between him and us. It is said that he is simply doing College. But it's been 2 years now with literally no answer to where he is and what he is doing. If it takes him more than 4 years to upload it is simply not college/education. Stop posting about endings, none will ever notice.
@@theefactor1360 No, he has been like these 3 years now. No uploads, No pinned comments no channel announcements no nothing to notify us of his departure. Don't play smart just because you discovered his channel 2 months ago or something. Fun fact is that he had incredible success in RUclips unlike many other Total War creators. And it is weird to see him abandoning such success because he is "bored"
Tbh I didn’t love ending c that much, it’s a happy ending i know that, but i just didn’t like it much for an ending, i wanted them to do something to devin worse than just making him explode.
If they made frakln a more evil character and let u steal micheals cut of the take and trevers in an option where u kill both, would make alot of sense. My first play threw i thought thats what was going to happen for option B.
ending a? ur mad. some missions for 100 completion are only for trevor and choosing ending a or b technically means its almost impossible to get 100 completion
Here’s the thing. While I agree that Franklin would never kill Michael, I think it’s makes more ethical sense to kill him than Trevor. Trevor is insane yes, but he’s also loyal and sincere. Michael planned Trevor’s death in Canada. But as Michael said “the wrong guy got shot.” And Trevor stood by Michael’s side after finding out that he faked his death all those years ago. And Michael continued to lie through his teeth. Even when Trevor figures out what happened to Brad, Michael lies all the way up until Trevor sees it for himself. When Franklin tells Michael they have to kill Trevor, Michael doesn’t bat an eye. But when Franklin tells Trevor he’s gonna kill Michael, Trevor is disgusted by Franklin, and will never talk to him again. Nah, if anyone deserves to die, I say it’s Michael. But I still kinda like him so I’ll pick option C.
if u have picked c during hangout michel will offer his 40 mil to trevor saying he is guilty for betraying him and is genuinly sorry and both will admit that brad is a dick, which gives him a closure for his betrayal and they start their freindship on a new node .
@@sreeyansuraj250 Michael’s guilt, fear, and regret doesn’t change, or justify his actions. Trevor chose to be loyal to his friends no matter what, whereas Michael’s actions were always selfish.
@@limpneckmikeif you put is that way micheal is loyal to his family and didnot sold out any other older crew members or lester, despite being untruthful to them. while trevor is selfish too, he abuses his friend like ron ( he took his cut from jobs and scared his wife away) , wade ( killed his teenage friends and manipulates him ) , was forcing micheal to not leave the crime life and not fond of or respect his family life and their friendship is toxic, all because he have abandonment issues and don't want to lose them from his life. Micheal have the best character development , he accepts everything he has done and regrets it. He apologizes to trevor and trevor himself apologies backward for pressuring him. micheal also mentions to franklin how he lived in denial with the burden of that betrayal, how it made everything worse you can check their fandom wiki pages in personality section
Lugotorix, I recently started a podcast called the Meme Stream where I interview fellow memelords. Let me know if you'd like to be a guest. (p.s. I would have asked this in your discord, but the link on your channel expired)
Hey there, yeah I would love to be on your podcast. Sorry for the discord link not working, I don't use it much. Probably would be best to contact me on: eleutheroi32@gmail.com i look forward to hearing from you :)
I chose choice C because in B, trevor would be mad that franklin killed michael, C just feels more natural overall. But also, in choice A it feels sad because trevor had a bad childhood, and idk where the portion of the robbery would go to if either one of them died. Plus, watching trevor burn just feels terrible too. So overall, I picked choice C because it feels happier.
Tbh the fact that its such a big game with three endings is amazing. Just replayed it n it was watching a movie but i got to pick which options they take. Very fun still in my top 10s
I chose ending C because I wanted to be able to play all 3 characters afterward, if possible (and thankfully I was right or it really wouldn't have mattered which option I chose). I figured Franklin wouldn't be killed but even if he was, just seems like the kinda sociopath he is. He's got just one ounce of integrity in him, that he would sacrifice himself for his boys. Also, the final battle at the end was awesome and I'd rather do that than just play one long event that's essentially a depressing cut-scene.
You got option B completely wrong. The whole point of the ending is becoming the father figure who raises you. What do I mean? Michael has spoken to Franklin the whole game about doing what was necessary for your own survival. Being able to kill Michael because of Devin Weston makes sense in terms of survival, because he has the power over Steve Haines, while killing trevor theoretically shouldn’t change the fact that devin wants michael dead. So choosing to michael garuntees franklins survival, which is what michael did to brad and trevor from the start, and poetically rings back what michael has taught Franklin the whole time, “when the time comes, you’ll know.” Which ties me to my main point, Franklin becomes Michael in a sense. Screwing everyone you love, just to survive. Which is why it’s the best ending thematically.
I don’t know if you know this or not, but you accidentally put ending a as the best ending in your title, I can kind of get it because those letters are close together on the keyboard, but still just want to let you know
I mean, the ending is cool from a gameplay perspective. But its also one of the saddest moments in gaming history. Michael was his only true friend in life. Then he tries to kill him, and Trevor thinks hes only doing it to get his share from the UD heist.
The mission "Lamar Down" pretty much solidifies Option C to be the canon ending, Michael and Trevor worked together to help Franklin out with Lamar despite both of them fighting at the time.
C is the correct ending as, in gta 5 online we can see trevor for the firdt time at sandy shores, and you can meet franklin through other ways. Although we have no appearance of michael, franklin states that michael is alive in los antos and doing well
In my opinion, the only reason why Ending A and Ending B is there is for the player (you) morals on what they think they should happen to Michael and Trevor. Not Franklins. If it were franklins morals then he would’ve picked C 100%. What was the point of him wanting to literally helping Michael and Trevor out? It makes no sense to me.
I just want to pick an ending that fits with the theme of gta V before I play it and people keep saying the theme is the amarican dream so I will go with either ending A or C
Come on, it's c. You get to saved both and get one of the best gunfights in all of gta. And get alot of money and if it's too hard you can still skip parts. and how is it weak? It's literally the Canon ending C is the best ending. its 2nd best ending for me (End of the line is my 1st)
One thing, I want in GTA VI is the return of the trio and it should be designed in such a way... Franklin says that one day, he had a dream that He agreed to FIB and Capped Trevor and another day, after clipping Devin , he had a dream that he agreed to Devin and killed Michael..... Ending A and B are just part of his dreams while c is the original ending
In general, even though we didn't get too much about Franklin's character, we all know Franklin wouldn't kill any of them. So C is the option Franklin would choose.
Option c us best all through out the gsne Franklin us mad he dosent have a choice he is neve the boss and he nver gets to call the shots. And wgen hes made to pick between which friend to kill me decides on his own and saves both instead.
I still think c is clearly the best as it is what Franklin would probably do in that situation
Yeah
To this day I wish Deathwish ended with just that: death. The worlds richest elite and top government agents prove too much for the trio and they all die honorably the way they lived.
its the canon one
I can’t see Franklin betraying either of them like that. And besides, I hate the thought of either dying.
I think A is the most realistic. You have two Government agents ordering you to kill someone who you cant even fully trust yet and is a sociopath, while C is something that never would happen realistically, 3 men vs over 100 mercs, and then doing 3 high profile assasinations
İ think ending C is too perfect, stereotype happy end. But still, it is hard to kill any one of them. Ending A is realistic, Franklin wouldn't trust Devin, because he didn't pay him for those cars, backstabbed him. But he would like to get defense from FBI.

Ending B is the most dramatic, student kills his teacher after he got everything thanks to him, backstabber is being backstabbed, etc.

-Franklin himself learned what happens when he betrays those who cared for him. Unlike Trevor’s ending, where some people hated him, everyone practically hates him for killing Michael. Except one notable person: Lamar.
In a way, Ending B was a punishment to both Franklin and Michael. However, Franklin gets the chance to learn, and it’s up to interpretation whether or not Franklin becomes like Michael and will betray Lamar or he learns from it and won’t. In fact, Franklin calls Lamar one last time before the final scene concludes.
(Sorry for the wall of text)
Well written 👏🏽 👌🏽
EXACTLY!! It sets Franklin free
LUGOTORIX ARE YOU ALIVE?
C is the best
No
No
@@octanesweat7065so I guess u like corruption? Damn America is gonna fall
I’d choose A after Trevor is so angry and found out Brad is dead and left Michael die in bury the hatchet also after killing Trevor gets the most money extra 20 million is 60 million for total
I’d choose B after choosing a worst crew and lowest minimum pay in the big score less than 10 million
I’d choose C for real against the enemies such as Devin Weston stretch Wei Cheng and Steven Haines
Dude... Option C is the best
Imagine killing T, he's the best character
But u do have huge balls to say THIS on youtube
yeah hes my favorite character
Michaels better
@@jessicaray1013 all 3 is the best
To me ending C does make sense in a way, because the deathwish choice makes sense for Franklin. Its the mission where we save Lamar, and then Franklin decides to be an AH about it throwing it in Lamar's face. I like to think that that was a lesson for Franklin and that that was a moment he thought about a lot watching Trevor and Michael fight. Before the mission started, Franklin seemed like he was losing the concept of loyalty slowly, the way he talked about Lamar to his ex, and then finally at the end of the mission when it's awkward between Lamar and him and then Lamar openly questions what Franklin means by loyalty, and that he has none to his face.
They didn't have to make it a "beautiful sunset" ending is what I'm saying. That deathwish choice made sense for Frank, IF he gets where Lamar is coming from. That the player can only decide for themselves.
Lugotorix return when
You missed an important point, killing Trevor may be the best ending for the world, as Trevor needs to die, but by doing this, Franklin learns from Micheal to be like him, a rich man, but alone, who would betray anyone, however, killing Micheal (my favorite character) we see, Franklin learned from Trevor, notice his phone call to Lamar aftwards
Killing Michael is an obvious no go for me because he’s my favorite character too, and I picked C
Trevor doesn't need to die. He already have a death wish on himself, and most probably wouldn't survive. (Suicide) why must Franklin listen to some corrupted FBI guy? We all know the FBI or whatever is corrupted. And hence that must be no. 1 priority to save America
I know everyone disagrees with this and dosent want to see it. Ending B isn’t a bad thing and does make sense since arguably Michael is the most evil of the three and Franklin learns how Michael betrayed his friends and could have been using Franklin Michaels past finally catches up to him and as you said Michael isn’t a great father and doesn’t deserve a good life and the story comes full circle with Trevor being betrayed in the beginning by Michael, a person who got him into the business and then gets killed by Franklin a kid who he helped. In the beginning and the end Trevor is betrayed and how I do agree with you that the gameplay after ending b isn’t great, I still feel this as a memorable ending and underated. I like ending b for its poetic story behind it. As with ending A Michael repeats history and the ending feels underwhelming. With Trevor’s death, Michael weakens his relationship with his family. With ending C feeling the most satisfying, doesn’t feel consistent and a little too good like you said, a little campy. While ending B has been described as a movie ending that makes sense story wise as a betrayal and prove that actions always have consequences.
Actually, ending C is the best ending
That's just like... Your opinion man.
C is the best it has the best ending for ever oney@@gabrielfmm
I still think option C is better
If option C is not ur goto, I don't wanna be anywhere near you.
I also LOVE that there are no consequences and Bad endings always piss me off
Although charachter development is important for story, It's not worth a sad ending
true but that's sussy af 💀💀💀💀
Wow. I chose ending A and I agree with every word you said. Still it was heartbreaking seeing Trevor dying.
I would select option C.
It's not the characters' deaths that make the ending a and b undesirable, it's the betrayal by their own best friends is what makes them terrible endings, it gets even worse when you realize that all their enemies are alive. I always pick ending c because I could never bring myself to betray any of the protagonists. If rockstar wanted to kill them, they should have get them killed by someone else, not by the protagonists who are best friends throughout the story.
I always felt like if you were going to choose to kill one of the two it should've been Michael. Options A and B show you a lot about who Michael, Trevor and Franklin are as people, and it always stuck with me that Michael will help murder Trevor, but when Trevor is presented the same choice, even when he knows that Michael spat on any concept of a mutual loyalty or friendship between the two, even knowing he is directly responsible for the death of the only other person besides Michael Trevor is shown to care about(excluding Mrs.Madrozzo), Trevor not only won't help get rid of the man at the root of all of his problems, but he's enraged and disgusted with Franklin for doing it. Trevor objectively does worse things throughout the main game than either of his partners but when it comes down to it, Trevor has morals(bare bones and whacked out as they are) and sticks to them, while Michael is revealed to be at his core a man with no principles, who holds nothing sacred but money. I really like that rockstar gave the player a chance to make such an impactful choice at the end, but I can't help but feel like the player punished for choosing anything but death wish, which never sat well with me.
Ending A- Most realistic, Micheal doesn’t take responsibility, Franklin has character development, Micheal helps Franklin, Emotional
ENDING B- Unrealistic, Trevor doesn’t want to speak to Franklin, cruel, heartless
ENDING C- Realistic, Micheal finally fixes his relationship with his family, Trevor and Micheal end their “rivalry”, The bad guys get killed
Gonna do anything for Rome Remastered?
Please come back, I really miss your videos :(
Tell me which choice is best to make in the GTA 5 final. Kill Trevor, or is it better to keep all three alive?
Keep all alive
Keep all 3 alive
Kill Trevor
I think option B and C are the only good endings narratively because both Micheal and Franklin both learn lessons and take responsibility for their actions and shows Trevor that loyalty pays off. I believe option A is a bad ending because Trevor who has been betrayed by Michael twice dies and Michael doesn't learn anything leading to Michael potentially betray others later on and Franklin also doesn't learn anything because Michael is his mentor and if the mentor doesn't learn anything how could he teach his student. Overall I think C is the best ending B is still a good ending and A is a bad ending
B is a bad ending, you get nothing out of it, you actively loose stuff and the characters act out of character
C is just a fairytale where you take care of all the problems in one mission
And a makes the most sense, Trevor and Lamar nearly caused every problem in the game, Lamar with his stupidity and Trevor with his ... Trevorness, he's a liability
@@serifthegodofinsanity8823 no, Micheal caused everything that happened in GTA 5.
B is the best ending, and closing to the series. I feel like all HD era games should end sadly, going the opposite way if the originals where crime and screwing people over made you successful. Even Rockstar made fun of their own formula in GTA 5. I think GTA 5 is the anti-gta game, especially considering its difficulty and how its story is done. So, an ending where the bad guys lose and everyone and anyone invoked in the business gets screwed for the things they did is fitting.
@@channel45853 trevor had a new life, he was the one who came back causing massive issues with the agency, he was the one who pissed off the chinese getting michael kidnapped, he was the one who stole a NUCLEAR WEAPON, He was the one who pissed off merry weather. he kidnaped martin madrozos wife, michael and martin were good and had made peace but trevor did a trevor. Every single one of the enemies in that final mission (minus stretch that was lamars stroke of genius) was there because trevor all of them.
michael made a mistake yes, but that was one that happened decades ago that no one except trevor actually cared about
@@serifthegodofinsanity8823 agreed.
@@serifthegodofinsanity8823 you're missing the point, Michael used Trevor since day one, and by the end of the game when he's outlived his usefulness, he gets killed, Michael himself pulls the trigger if you don't do it
Lugotorix no Rome remastered video?
Hi Lugo never know you like the GTA series, me too specially San Andreas. When I have a better PC I will play this game.
In my opinion my favorite ending is C. All lives.
The third way is the best
In addition I'm going to say this. with regards to ending C causing Michael to end up as a stereotype with no character development, one could say that's the very point. Otherwise if you don't like that option then I will say that the time that Michael spends away from his family played into the healing and it wasn't just beating up a yoga teacher. As for Franklin's ark in ending C it's actually sort of painfully obvious that it was meant for him to go from a very flaky character to one who would die for his remaining friends. Through the entire game his aunt and Lamar are lecturing him about his lack of loyalty to family and brotherhood and such. Option C give some the ark by proving this wrong. However I would suggest that if you don't believe there is an arc for any character and option C then it is simply the point for their not to be an ark as these people are supposed to be superficial cardboard cutouts in the most superficial City on the planet.
Hope you're doing well king, miss your content
I just completed c and the credits and the song at the End is giving me goosebumps
Ending C is not only the best ending in GTA V It's The Canon Ending based on further developments in GTA Online
Nope it’s the 2nd worst ending 👎 ending a the best
*ending B the best
@@Ярослав-я2н8йending B is nonsense! Option A has more rewards
I chose c first time i played because
1. It's the conon ending
2. All 3 characters are alive
3. U get rid of people who are worse than Michael and Trevor such as Devin weston Steve haines Wei cheng stretch
4. Neither of the characters will hate each other after this as in you can still do hangouts
Also why do some people think deathwish kills Franklin in that Devin cutscene Franklin literally says you got a deathwish am I suppose to kill you
Yeah but its also too "Hollywoodistic", you can't just kill every enemy of yours without any consequences and that easy. A is the most realistic one.
@@nau.000 and b is just dumb
@@scizopenguin true. for me A its canon.
@@nau.000 agree, micheal is my favorite character but even if you hate him, b is so out of character for frankiln, he’s doing this for a person who hasnt paid him. Plus micheal treated him better than his own kids. Plus you lose a lot endgame content. It would be better if Trevor replaced franklin
We are waiting for your return
Ending C is my opinion. Trevor is my fav character! And he may have killed many people especially in the rampages.
Ending C is best

I just enter the channel to put that comment. Well Lugo hear this man.
They announced it, not released it yet, but yes, I hope Lugotorix sees this.
still missing CJ
I have a very, very bad explanation to why he must have left. Either his account got hacked, he died IRL or he forgot the password/credentials needed to log on to his account. I don't know if anyone knows what happened to his discord server, but if you do it would help a lot to know. Also there is simply no communicaiton between him and us. It is said that he is simply doing College. But it's been 2 years now with literally no answer to where he is and what he is doing. If it takes him more than 4 years to upload it is simply not college/education. Stop posting about endings, none will ever notice.
Or maybe he just didn’t have time/didn’t feel like making more RUclips videos? You don’t need to deep everything so much bro🤣
@@theefactor1360 No, he has been like these 3 years now. No uploads, No pinned comments no channel announcements no nothing to notify us of his departure. Don't play smart just because you discovered his channel 2 months ago or something. Fun fact is that he had incredible success in RUclips unlike many other Total War creators. And it is weird to see him abandoning such success because he is "bored"

A is the most realistic, B is the most theatrical, and C is the most fun.
Tbh I didn’t love ending c that much, it’s a happy ending i know that, but i just didn’t like it much for an ending, i wanted them to do something to devin worse than just making him explode.
Honestly, after finishing Ending C. I still play Ending C in reply missions for fun because GTA 5 without any missions is just boring.
I though maybe but damn ending c is so good man. Respect that though and see your points.
If they made frakln a more evil character and let u steal micheals cut of the take and trevers in an option where u kill both, would make alot of sense. My first play threw i thought thats what was going to happen for option B.
I’d say ending A is the canon one, while B is just for the 100% and then C is if you haven’t 100%’d the game yet and still wish to play on.
ending a? ur mad. some missions for 100 completion are only for trevor and choosing ending a or b technically means its almost impossible to get 100 completion
No, That would be Ending C based on further developments in GTA Online
Where are you?
Here’s the thing. While I agree that Franklin would never kill Michael, I think it’s makes more ethical sense to kill him than Trevor. Trevor is insane yes, but he’s also loyal and sincere. Michael planned Trevor’s death in Canada. But as Michael said “the wrong guy got shot.” And Trevor stood by Michael’s side after finding out that he faked his death all those years ago. And Michael continued to lie through his teeth. Even when Trevor figures out what happened to Brad, Michael lies all the way up until Trevor sees it for himself. When Franklin tells Michael they have to kill Trevor, Michael doesn’t bat an eye. But when Franklin tells Trevor he’s gonna kill Michael, Trevor is disgusted by Franklin, and will never talk to him again. Nah, if anyone deserves to die, I say it’s Michael. But I still kinda like him so I’ll pick option C.
thats because micheal is scared and guilty about betraying trevor you think he couldn't have done him in all the times they were together.
and michel regrets killing trevor too he doesnt hang with frank have nightmares and blames frank in denial saying he made the decision
if u have picked c during hangout michel will offer his 40 mil to trevor saying he is guilty for betraying him and is genuinly sorry and both will admit that brad is a dick, which gives him a closure for his betrayal and they start their freindship on a new node .
@@sreeyansuraj250 Michael’s guilt, fear, and regret doesn’t change, or justify his actions. Trevor chose to be loyal to his friends no matter what, whereas Michael’s actions were always selfish.
@@limpneckmikeif you put is that way micheal is loyal to his family and didnot sold out any other older crew members or lester, despite being untruthful to them. while trevor is selfish too, he abuses his friend like ron ( he took his cut from jobs and scared his wife away) , wade ( killed his teenage friends and manipulates him ) , was forcing micheal to not leave the crime life and not fond of or respect his family life and their friendship is toxic, all because he have abandonment issues and don't want to lose them from his life. Micheal have the best character development , he accepts everything he has done and regrets it. He apologizes to trevor and trevor himself apologies backward for pressuring him. micheal also mentions to franklin how he lived in denial with the burden of that betrayal, how it made everything worse you can check their fandom wiki pages in personality section
Great Remastered content!
Don't blame you, if you're disillusioned after not being given a copy.
This is your most recent video so I'm going to comment on this but are you going to do anything about Rome Total war remastered
Lugotorix, I recently started a podcast called the Meme Stream where I interview fellow memelords. Let me know if you'd like to be a guest. (p.s. I would have asked this in your discord, but the link on your channel expired)
Hey there, yeah I would love to be on your podcast. Sorry for the discord link not working, I don't use it much. Probably would be best to contact me on: eleutheroi32@gmail.com i look forward to hearing from you :)
@@lugotorix6173 I love your videos man, will you be back soon? :)
Bro come back
I chose choice C because in B, trevor would be mad that franklin killed michael, C just feels more natural overall. But also, in choice A it feels sad because trevor had a bad childhood, and idk where the portion of the robbery would go to if either one of them died. Plus, watching trevor burn just feels terrible too. So overall, I picked choice C because it feels happier.
i agree but the only reason i chose ending a for 13 times was for the money cuz idk anyone who is stupid enough that he wants to play as trevor
Trevor is the best character in gta5.
Tbh the fact that its such a big game with three endings is amazing. Just replayed it n it was watching a movie but i got to pick which options they take. Very fun still in my top 10s
I chose ending C because I wanted to be able to play all 3 characters afterward, if possible (and thankfully I was right or it really wouldn't have mattered which option I chose). I figured Franklin wouldn't be killed but even if he was, just seems like the kinda sociopath he is. He's got just one ounce of integrity in him, that he would sacrifice himself for his boys. Also, the final battle at the end was awesome and I'd rather do that than just play one long event that's essentially a depressing cut-scene.
Hey bro hope your well. Just wanted to know if your done making RUclips vidoes? Didn't knotice how long it had been since you posted last
You got option B completely wrong. The whole point of the ending is becoming the father figure who raises you. What do I mean? Michael has spoken to Franklin the whole game about doing what was necessary for your own survival. Being able to kill Michael because of Devin Weston makes sense in terms of survival, because he has the power over Steve Haines, while killing trevor theoretically shouldn’t change the fact that devin wants michael dead. So choosing to michael garuntees franklins survival, which is what michael did to brad and trevor from the start, and poetically rings back what michael has taught Franklin the whole time, “when the time comes, you’ll know.” Which ties me to my main point, Franklin becomes Michael in a sense. Screwing everyone you love, just to survive. Which is why it’s the best ending thematically.
I don’t know if you know this or not, but you accidentally put ending a as the best ending in your title, I can kind of get it because those letters are close together on the keyboard, but still just want to let you know
On my first playthrough, I did death wish. With ease, too.
Actually after ending a, michael and franklin can’t hang out again.
I mean, the ending is cool from a gameplay perspective. But its also one of the saddest moments in gaming history. Michael was his only true friend in life. Then he tries to kill him, and Trevor thinks hes only doing it to get his share from the UD heist.
The mission "Lamar Down" pretty much solidifies Option C to be the canon ending, Michael and Trevor worked together to help Franklin out with Lamar despite both of them fighting at the time.
C is the correct ending as, in gta 5 online we can see trevor for the firdt time at sandy shores, and you can meet franklin through other ways. Although we have no appearance of michael, franklin states that michael is alive in los antos and doing well
If you pick option a or b it will mess up the flow of the timeline if you do that
Convinced your dead at this point. RIP mate. Sad to see you fall off the RUclips grind.
He'll come back eventually. A couple years ago he said he was 19 and a uni student. Now he must be 21 and rounding up. He must be busy af these days
@@theefactor1360 Thanks for the reply. I hope so, i like his content. Hope to see him back soon.
Nothing better than helping than you and your friend getting rid of each other enemy
In my opinion, the only reason why Ending A and Ending B is there is for the player (you) morals on what they think they should happen to Michael and Trevor. Not Franklins. If it were franklins morals then he would’ve picked C 100%. What was the point of him wanting to literally helping Michael and Trevor out? It makes no sense to me.
If he learned anything from Micheal he would pick option B
I just want to pick an ending that fits with the theme of gta V before I play it and people keep saying the theme is the amarican dream so I will go with either ending A or C
Come on, it's c. You get to saved both and get one of the best gunfights in all of gta. And get alot of money and if it's too hard you can still skip parts. and how is it weak? It's literally the Canon ending C is the best ending. its 2nd best ending for me (End of the line is my 1st)
Cuz narrative wise it’s a weak fairy tell ending while ending A is the most realistic and well written.
@@alexdeghost2729 Ohh I get what you mean
@@alexdeghost2729The best ending in terms of storytelling is ending B
One thing, I want in GTA VI is the return of the trio and it should be designed in such a way... Franklin says that one day, he had a dream that He agreed to FIB and Capped Trevor and another day, after clipping Devin , he had a dream that he agreed to Devin and killed Michael..... Ending A and B are just part of his dreams while c is the original ending
I respect your opinion
I'm not
If you use death wish you said you can’t make a lot of stocks. How can you make those stocks like what stick to buy?
When i picked option a i continued crying for a day
what are those graphic settings
I chose c
In general, even though we didn't get too much about Franklin's character, we all know Franklin wouldn't kill any of them. So C is the option Franklin would choose.
Well the cannon ending is C
Still waiting for a rome speedrun, lol
I heard C is canon?
Why is that a question yeah
@@Nico4Frank because i was not sure
When Franklin asked Trevor to help him kill Michael(and he refused)...Oh man. THAT'S FRIENDSHIP 🔥
Option c us best all through out the gsne Franklin us mad he dosent have a choice he is neve the boss and he nver gets to call the shots. And wgen hes made to pick between which friend to kill me decides on his own and saves both instead.
