| QUOTE (asitsaysinthebook @ Monday, May 21 2012, 16:38) | | I chose Revenge everytime as I find "Deal" to be very out of character for Niko. | I disagree. What has revenge gotten Niko? Nothing. Killing Vlad only made Roman's problems infinitely worse, as he is so keen to remind him. Killing Darko did not make, or would not have made, the emptiness inside him go away. Niko is sorry for the trouble he has caused with these acts. If he just puts aside his impulses this time, he believes, maybe everything will turn out all right and everyone will be happy, like they were before he showed up. Roman will be wealthy and happily married. Pegorino will be content and stable. Dimitri will have incentive to leave Niko and his loved ones alone. If Kate breaks up with him, that's a small price to pay compared to security and comfort. So he'll take Roman's advice, and be a loyal employee, even if he has reservations. In another story, the deal would have been the better choice to make, because Niko listens to his companions, puts aside his grudges, leaves the cycle of revenge, and did not end up a loose cannon like Faustin, who had to be put down because he refused to compromise. But Niko finds out that he isn't in that story. And that's partly why the Deal ending is as poignant as it is; the one time Niko really tried not to f*ck everything up for himself and others, he f*cked up worse than he would've thought possible. The world won't let him win. Welcome to America.
