8 Powerful Video Game Endings You Had To Die To See

Remember Far Cry 3?

The first time we experienced the now-tired Ubisoft formula in first-person, in a brilliantly paced open-world adventure that not only reinvented Far Cry itself, but gave us one of gaming's most iconic villains in Michael Mando's Vaas?

It was one hell of a sequel, and arguably the best in the franchise, but one area it notably stumbled was the underlying thematic of character Jason "losing himself" to the island.

Personified by the mysterious Citra, leader of the Rakyat tribe, Far Cry 3 sets about giving you a mix of goals between saving your trapped friends who've also gotten lost across Rook Island, and helping Citra achieve total domination of the local populace.

Come the close of the game, Vaas has been defeated and it's pretty clear you're supposed to save your remaining friends, release your girlfriend from being held hostage and wipe out Citra for good.

However, if you were looking to relive that awkward first-person sex scene that Ubisoft used to debut Far Cry 3 in the first place, you can opt to shack up with Citra, slicing your partner's throat in the process.

The twist? She then butchers you with a ceremonial dagger, leaving Jason to bleed out on a slab of rock as the credits roll.
