Even if there is a protagonist aura, some protagonists can not escape the fate of death in the end, most of them are saddled with the mission of salvation, and the final sacrifice is tragic.
Before we took stock of the protagonists who died in the sequel, see this article for details: When the protagonist's aura no longer exists, death is inevitable, and the protagonists who died in the sequel are also counted
The characters already mentioned will not be mentioned this time, and we will take stock of the protagonists who died in their own works today.
Booker and Elizabeth – BioShock Infinity
The story begins with the player following the owner's perspective on a small boat to a lighthouse, where they board a bazooka leading to Columbia City, where Booker needs to travel to Columbia City to rescue the girl Elizabeth in order to pay off the debt, and the player thinks the story will develop as we expect.
Unexpectedly, fate and Booker made a big joke, he is not a Prince Charming who rescues the princess, in fact, the villain who imprisoned Elizabeth, Constock, is another Person who was baptized and turned bad when he was young.
In order to truly destroy Constock, Booker had Elizabeth, who had regained her strength, drown herself in all aspects before she was baptized, thus completely eliminating his and Comstock's existence in all universes.
In BioShock Infinity's DLC Sea Burial, the protagonist becomes Elizabeth, and the stage comes to the underwater city before the story of BioShock 1, where Elizabeth dies forever in order to save the girl Sally.
John and Arthur – Red Dead Redemption 1&2
Because "Red Dead Redemption 2" is a prequel, let's talk about 2 generations first, in which Arthur has 4 endings, but no matter which ending can't change it, it's his mortal ending.
At the end of the story, Arthur and John are chased and killed to escape together, in order to reunite John's family, Arthur decides to sacrifice himself to let John escape, facing the pursuing soldiers alone, and finally dueling with the traitor Micah and dying.
In "Red Dead Redemption 1", John has already killed the traitor Micah, and just about to take his wife and children to live a peaceful life, he is found by the police and threatens his wife and children to kill the former gang members to make up for it.
For the sake of his family, John embarked on this alternative journey of redemption, but when he returned from his redemption journey, the detective came to the door in a hurry, and in a hurry, John let his wife and children escape on horseback, and he generously died behind the palace, just as Arthur had asked him to escape behind his temple.
The protagonists of the "Red Dead Redemption" series end up dying tragically, perhaps related to their professional identity, as criminals do not get a good ending is inevitable, their ending may be the best redemption of their lives.
Ethan – Resident Evil 8
Ethan is affectionately called the God of Handwashing War by players, because he uses hand sanitizer to recover from injuries, and even his own limbs can use hand sanitizer, which is also named after the God of Hand Sanitizer War.
However, Ethan is not a superman, he has been killed by his father-in-law in seven generations, the reason why he will be resurrected is because he is infected with some kind of mold, and the fact that he can recover from the injury with hand sanitizer is also related to ethan's infection with mold.
In order to save his wife and daughter in the eight generations, the god of handwashing war lost his heart, his body was corrupted, and he finally died with Milanjo, which can also be regarded as showing his personal charm and dying where he wanted.
Desmond – Assassin's Creed III
Desmond is the modern protagonist of the first 3 installments of Assassin's Creed, and after going through the five works of Assassin's Creed 1, 2, Brotherhood, Revelation, and 3, Desmond has gradually grown from an ordinary young man to a powerful Assassin who inherits the will of his ancestors.
But as the modern protagonist of so many works, Ubisoft did not arrange for him to save the world and return to Happy ending, but only gave him a chance to become a savior.
In the end, Desmond chose to sacrifice himself for the lives of all mankind, and his whole body burned and died tragically, but it is precisely this ending that reflects his growth and the player will be so impressed with him.
(PS. If Desmond doesn't die again, he should go to the modern Templar order without harm in blood, hahaha)
Che Yun - "Xuanyuan Sword 4 Outer Legend of Cang ZhiTao"
You may regret the tortuous fate of the three protagonists in "Xuanyuan Sword 3 Outer Transmission of Heavenly Traces", but what I remember most is Che Yun in "Xuanyuan Sword 4 Outer Transmission of Cangzhitao", she is a poor child and a simple girl, but the two best friends around her, Heng Yuanzhi and Yin shi, are not like her, they all want to use the wheel of Taiyi to change the fate of Qin Jin after a thousand years.
The player manipulates Che Yun's last boss battle is to face his former teammate Heng Yuanzhi, and after defeating him, the story also ushered in the end, Che Yun could not bear that Heng Yuanzhi and Yin Shi were injured and killed by her favorite Heng Brother.
After that, Yin Shi left the Taiyi Shrine due to the spell, leaving Huan Yuanzhi holding Che Yun's corpse and staying alone in the Taiyi Shrine for a thousand years.
In the waves of history, the power of individuals seems too small, in fact, in terms of results, their actions have not changed the fate of Qin Jin, if they could understand these truths earlier, perhaps the end of the story would not be like this, it is really sighing.
Well, the above characters are the protagonists who died at the end of the story that I inventoried, and if you know of other characters, you are welcome to leave a message in the comment area to add ~ I have the opportunity to share similar content with you again
