If GTA 5 had only the options to kill Michael or Trevor, which one would you choose?

[JPFL]

Who would you kill?

[Algonquin Assassin]

Trevor. I wouldn't kill GTA V's best protagonist.

[TheSantader25]

Trevor. I love him. But there's no denying that he is insane and a problem. With him gone the troubles would go away as well.He is a damaged soul and pretty much there is no hope for him so I'd say killing him is a favor to himself and the whole world. 

 

The first time I played the game I thought "Death wish" means Franklin would die so I chose kill trevor. Though I didn't know it was the finale. So when the credits rolled up I was like WTF? That's the end? immediately closed the game, restarted and chose deathwish.

I really wouldnt know. I like Michael much more as a protagonist, but he has very little 'replay' value after finishing the story other than doing properties activities or driving luxury cars around town (thing thst i love). Wirh trevor on the other hand, you have more options, you can do drug trafficking missions which adds some little action to the post-story game and you could easily start a gunfight or beat up someone randomly and it would make sense (I like to play in a way to follow each protags personality, so i dont kill people or do random sh*t with M or F for example).

Without the C ending, i would probably have two saves with one ending each (thing that would suck) because i wouldnt be able to chose really.

Trevor. I'd probably keep a pre-last mission save for free roaming with all 3 protagonists. I chose C on my first playthrough, then A and B in that order from the mission replay menu.

Same here. I chose him on my first play and then Option C on my second. Mostly for the airfield.

[Reyiz Kovan]

I would choose to kill trevor cuz i feel like ending b is the worst thing ever seen in a gta game(along with johnny's death)

"...I brought you into my home franklin!...And now you're gonna cap,the only one who was ever decent to you!!...I took you in,Treaded you like family!..."

Im sure it would be better franklin killin himself rather than killin michael.

[Bratva Assassin]

Trevor, because I like Michael too much. Ending C exists for a reason. I never really thought of it this way but picking ending C (in my mind) is actually punishing Trevor even more than ending A. Although his death is rather gruesome in ending A, he is still put out of his misery. Therefore, it's kinda doing Trevor a favor. With ending C, it's gonna take a few years for Trevor to die and once he dies, it'll probably be done slowly. However, at the same time, picking ending C is kinda doing Devin, Steve, Wei Cheng, and Stretch a favor by putting them out of their misery. All except Devin die rather quickly as well. With ending A, they'll probably die a few years later by pissing off the wrong other people and it being even more gruesome on all four of them. Sometimes, GTA just takes a little bit of thinking outside the box.  If A and B were the only two options though, I'd still go with A because Michael really didn't have any misery to be put out of. Plus, that ending is the only way of Devin getting what he wants, only here, it's in a good way. So yeah..

I wish you could kill Franklin instead

[Tommy1233]

Trevor. If GTA V had option to kill Franklin then I will surely kill him.

This right here. I’d be upset and probably keep a save right before the choice has to be made so you can keep all three though.

 

Though, if these were the only two options - canonically/thematically I’d see the “right” choice being to kill Michael. It’s what Devin asks him to do, it makes more sense for Franklin to feel more pressured by him than the FIB, and it’s strange that the choice to kill Trevor is appearing so late in the game when it was brought up way earlier in the story.

 

It makes the story come full circle as well. On top of that, it fits with Rockstar’s other games where the “star protagonist” is killed off at the end of the story. I would only hope that if these two options were the only two, that the missions and cutscenes would be lengthier and more fleshed out. What we actually got was pathetic for a finale.

 

Regardless, I’ll always hold Ending C as the canon one.

[Male01]

Who are we kidding? This excuse of a game's excuse of a story is powered by Michael causing problems for himself and everyone around him. Who knocks down a house as retaliation for some tennis coach sleeping with their spouse? Who pays so little attention as to have their son buy a car without them having any knowledge about it? Who is such a powerful criminal and betrays their criminal partners for a deal with law enforement?

 

Let's not forget that Michael even kills himself if you don't kill him in the mission where he dies.

[Aquamaniac]

In terms of story I'd kill Trevor since he is a psycho and well deserves it plus Franklin has no reason to kill Michael, in terms of gameplay to continue playing after the game is finished I'd kill Michael since Trevor is the funnier character.

[JRC99]

Trevor without question. Michael's got a family. Everybody around Trevor would honestly be better off without him. Wade wouldn't be abused, Ron could at least try to get his life back on track, etc. 

[Official General]

Trevor without question. The most terrible protagonist in the entire GTA series, it's a no-brainer for me. 

[Tycek]

Trevor, because I already killed him in my first playthrough. Michael wasn't great protagonist, but he was bearable. Trevor was not.

[Copcaller]

Trevor for the same reason Michael betrayed him he makes the perfect fall guy sure he's angry psycho and all that other stuff but that's just to help ourselves sleep at night for betraying him cause Michael easily has an equally foul temper that leads to trouble

[Shadowfennekin]

Neither, I'd just stop playing.

 

I'd kill Franklin without a moments thought though, he's just so boring and feels needlessly tacked on. I think V would have been much more enjoyable if it centered solely around Michael and Trevor. Apart from Lamar, Frank's whole life is rather uninteresting.

This is exactly my though, I was really pissed when I didn't find an option to kill franklin.

Agreed..Michael and Trevor carry GTA V and are overall memorable protagonists. Franklin feels more like nostalgia pandering, a poor man's CJ (and he wasn't even a great character either lol). 

[Davao]

Trevor. Simple answer.  Michael has a family, where as Trevor isn't.  Trevor's a psycho and not a likable character at all. I prefer Michael and Franklin together, instead of Trevor and Franklin.

[Ondr4H]

I will kill Michael...

He did a lot damage to everybody, he doesnt care about friends, he cannot solve family problems...


He is cu**old version of Tommy Vercetti.

[slayermp3]

I would mostly maybe choose Trevor, just because he is unstable at most times, which you encounter many events where Trevor murders or kills someone furiously because of his mental status, but that's just the gta choice for my choice.

[BurnettVice]

I would choose Michael, even though I like him. He's a snake who ratted out his friends to the feds. He ignored his family and only cares about himself. 

[Liberty-TG]

Trevor because it's worse than Michael,it's crazy and unstable.

However none of the three finals are epic with action or satisfactory,two fast kills and a long revenge of boring and forgetful antagonists.

Also #Johnnyrevenge

 

[Lioshenka]

Trevor. I don't particularly want to kill him, but he's a sick kind of an individual, and you don't develop any attachment or attraction towards the character through the game. He's fun, he's original - but he's just there with no particular purpose, whereas Michael's character, as flawed as it is, is much more likable, and you can tell that R* at least tried to give him some sort of a credible back story.

 

You want Michael to deal with his troubled family and find peace and retire, whereas with Trevor you forget about his life as soon as you switch the character.

 

I'd so much rather kill Franklin though. He is a great 3d model that fits the game and the environment, but other than that he's an empty shell. I'd prefer him to be the main character in a game, but seeing that he isn't he would be my first choice, if not Trevor.

Michael because he was the rat the whole time.....

Why would Trevor die in a few years?

In my save he has $1.4 Trillion and owns 1/3 of the properties in game.

[Davao]

I wonder what would happen if there was an option for Franklin to be killed instead of deathwish, that'd be interesting

[iiCriminnaaL]

Trevor.

[Jeansowaty]

So few people vote for Michael? Well okay.

 

I'd kill him because he's an extreme traitor and a hypocrite. I wonder how y'all fellow IV brethren can like him so much when he's the polar opposite of Niko Bellic.
