8 Video Game Deaths That Just Didn't Work

8. Trish - Devil May Cry

With all of the demon ass-kicking that goes on in the Devil May Cry games, it's sometimes easy to forget that at their heart it's a tale of sibling rivalry and a whole lot of daddy Issues. However, you don't need to brave these hardships alone as you soon encounter series fan favorite, Trish.

Trish is an absolute badass. She cracks wise and uses them thighs to kick the everloving piss out of demons throughout your adventure, and it seems that even cool poser boy Dante might actually have found someone as early 2000s X-treme as him. The growing tension between the two is used as a motivator for the final fight with Dante's deadbeat dad Mundus, as it's revealed that Trish has been working with this claymation looking big bad, yet chooses to jump in the way of one of his attacks to protect Dante.

This shocking death allows Dante to unleash the beast and send his father out for cigarettes permanently. Now at this point, this is all well and good, and Trish's untimely end feels pretty emotional and we can close out the tale in a bittersweet manner, right?

Well...that's kinda undone by this one following line: "I should have been the one to fill your dark soul with LIIIIIGHT"

Ooof. That... that really takes some of the heat out of that moment, doesn't it? You're meant to be sad here, not giggling at Drew Coombs' voice breaking.
