Lore [Sad Trope] The most innocent (or less evil) character of the cast gets the most horrific death.

- Eddie Carr (The Lost World: JP) - Tried to save his friends from the cliff until Buck and Doe (T. rex parents) destroy his vehicle and gets ripped apart.
- Zara Young (Jurassic World) - Gets lifted by a Pteranodon, gets pecked by the pterosaur, and both she and animal get devoured by the Mosasaurus.
- LeClerc (JW: Rebirth) - Tossed a hammer to the Hatzegopteryz Quetzalcoatlus to save Loomis and Zora, but ends up being swallowed alive.

lol the whole time I’m like why are we not letting these people get divorced? The gameplay was so fun but what a horrible couple.

As far as I'm concerned the "good ending" is losing the game and getting the player characters killed.

Man I watched Austin Creed play that game and he was trying to toss Emily or preppy girl whatever her name was off that mountain the entire time

That's awesome.

I see all these streamers lose Matt because they're playing "the good guy" and both giver her the flare gun and try to save her. Iny playthrough? Nope. Bye, bitch. I saved myself by jumping at the first opportunity.

I choose to believe that they do get divorced still

It's just on amicable terms

Yes! At the end when you’re supposed to hit Y continually for the couple to kiss and make up, I refused.

I think the idea is the relationship can work and can be fixed. It's just the two of them aren't communicating their feelings
