Ondr4H Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Bringing the house down from LCS. Commit domestic terorism is depressing enough for me as player. MrPikmin16, icecoldkilla1467, Bratva Assassin and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CynicalMexican Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 By the Book in GTA 5 as it's just hard to get through. f*ck that mission. A Revenger's Tragedy in GTA 4. Light my Pyre in GTA VCS. f*ck the Mendez Brothers. Bratva Assassin, icecoldkilla1467, MrPikmin16 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllNightLong Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 For me, it's the Hot Dog Homicide! mission given by the Russians in the Industrial District in GTA2. In this mission, you have to find a bus stop, steal a bus and get at least 20 people inside. Then you drive them to the R.S. L. Bows meat factory where you watch them getting on a belt and turned into hotdogs. And finally you jump into a hot dog van and deliver it to the Kovski Diner to feed the hungry Russians. The mission is a little different from the PS version, where it's called R.S. L. Bows! and instead of having to find a bus by yourself, you'll be picking up a Krishna Bus and filling it up with Krishnas (Krishna is the Russians' rival gang). The rest is the same.

Bratva Assassin Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) Oh boy! Where do I even start? Light My Pyre in VCS is pretty depressing because of Louise Cassidy-Williams’s very tragic death. Bringing the House Down from LCS is too. I mean, it feels a bit out of character. Even for someone as heinous as Toni Cipriani. The Green Sabre from SA is pretty darn upsetting too. Think about it. CJ literally loses his two best friends named Ryder and Big Smoke. Plus, his brother gets arrested and he’s all on his own once he gets captured and taken to a remote area. And of course, both endings to GTA IV, the killings of both Dwayne and Playboy X, the killings of both Derrick and Francis, and the ending to TLAD.

bananaking13 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Green Sabre & Pier 69. Light my Pyre but the more I think about this mission the less painful it gets Roman dying in GTA 4 (if you're sick enough to let him die) is also really depressing 3 hours ago, Evil empire said: Supply lines and Freefall from San Andreas and bleak is a weak word for those 2 crappy pieces of $hit.

I hoped at least it would be done "Of Mice and Men" style just shooting him in the back of the head as he looked out over the ocean but no it had to be cruel! Always a big influence on my Blood Brothers decision. One thing I like is that in RDR2 one time when Dutch needs to use a fake name he declares "my name is Aiden O'Malley" lol. Such a random choice of character to pick for a reference/easter egg, I like that he got a tribute after I felt so bad killing him. Reminds me of another IV mission that should be on the list: Flatline. Damn that was evil.

I wouldn't like to think he died if he didn't go ahead with it. Bratva Assassin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way Miguel is impaled with Asuka's whip/"stick" thingy and Asuka is already dead by the time Claude finds her feels kinda "sad"-ish to me.

CynicalMexican Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I always thought Have A Heart was pretty depressing, as annoying as Manny was, he was hilarious and didn't deserve to die like that, man.

bahraini_carguy Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 GTA 4 definitely had it's share of bleak moments but everyone mentioned that already. Vice City Stories had that one mission where i actually felt bad when i played it first time back in the day but again someone already mentioned that.

Well it looks that Debra shot Floyd and Trevor killed Debra. According to Weasel news. Is kinda interesting, that it keeps mystery and gives you freedom of choice.

This belongs more to the headcanon topic but I believe in the Revenge ending he died in a car accident whilst trying to come to the Platypus.
