10. Rescuing The Daughter He Sold To Pay A Debt - Bioshock Infinite

Main character Booker is a private investigator who is sent to an island in the sky to rescue a girl. However, there are plenty of ulterior motives at work throughout the story.

Bioshock Infinite Booker should never have even contemplated sold his daughter to pay off his debts. I get why he wasn't acting rationally - after all, his partner died and he was in desperate need of cash. People do irrational things when they feel that they have no other options.

At least he instantly regretted selling his daughter, but it' s still a deplorable action that should never have happened. It had a consequence too, since the child loses a finger during the subsequent violent exchange as Booker attempts to get his daughter back from Comstock.

Oh, and the only reason he's on the job to find the girl in the first place is because he's landed himself in even more debt. Evidently, Booker didn't learn from his mistakes.
