20 Video Game NPCs You CAN'T Afford To Lose

13. Dwayne Forge - Grand Theft Auto IV

Dwayne Forge is a supporting character from Grand Theft Auto IV that is one of Niko's potential friends and hangout partners.

"Potential," because depending on your choices, Dwayne can meet an untimely and rather depressing demise.

Dwayne plays a central role in the mission "The Holland Play." After getting recently released from prison, Dwayne becomes the target of his old protege in the drug business, Playboy X, who tasks Niko with assassinating the man for a huge pile of money.

The cash reward is tempting, and considering that Dwayne is already kind of done with his life, having to spend a lot of it in prison after being set up by his old partners, some players will naturally take Playboy X up on his offer.

However, losing Dwayne is secretly the less profitable option.

If you spare Dwayne and instead kill Playboy X, you not only get to befriend Dwayne and be able to hang out with him, but you also get to take Playboy X's penthouse from him at the end of the mission.

Killing Dwayne, on the other hand, only nets you $25,000, so the deal really pales in comparison.

You can't put a price on friendship.
