| QUOTE (Miamivicecity @ Sunday, Apr 29 2012, 03:29) | I chose Revenge the first time, but when I chose Deal I felt as if it was a better ending. I didn't like in Revenge how we killed Dimitri first and Pegorino last.
Sure Pegorino was a scum bag, but he was introduced very late into the story and I didn't feel as much contempt as with Dimitri. On its own I doubt Niko would've dealt with Dimitri, but he was doing it for Roman after all.
The whole Niko/Kate relationship didn't have much meaning IMO as I couldn't careless about her. Roman was there from the beginning. I genuinely believe if there was only one ending Deal would've been it. Niko was a very easily convinced man and I could see him putting personal issues aside for money if it meant benefiting Roman, but as we all know it bit him in the ass big time. |
I think it worked perfectly having Pegorino as the enemy in the last mission. The last enemy should always be a surprise in games. Look for example at Red Dead Redemption, the final boss (Edgar Ross) was also introduced late in the game. And compare Dimitri with Dutch van der Linde. A bit comparable with the Revenge-ending in IV: after Dutch died John Marston thinks his problems are over and suddenly he gets killed by Edgar Ross, Niko thinks his problems are over after he killed Dimitri and suddenly Kate gets killed by Pegorino. Also, maybe Niko became wiser and did not want to listen to Roman's advice anymore, and it is logic that that he is now listening to Kate. Because: wasn't it Roman that brought Niko to America with his lies in his e-mails? Revenge is canon. This post has been edited by CJ killed Ryder on Sunday, Apr 29 2012, 15:37

I think just about everyone with any sense chose revenge, but having played through the game a couple of times my opinion:
The one that makes more sense with the storyline is revenge, because there's no way you let a chance at killing Dmitri go to waste, and there's no way you work under him again after what he's done to you and Roman.
But if you ignore the storyline and the outcomes of which mission you take, the Deal mission is more fun; I like Phil Bell as a character, so I liked getting to hear more of him, plus the Deal mission, in addition to the obligatory big shootout, also had the little chase at the end which I thought was cool. If you do Revenge it's just a big shootout.
Doing the Deal also changes the last mission a little bit, where you now have to drive in a boat chasing after Dmitri's helicopter, instead of chasing Pegorino's boat on a bike. I did not enjoy Dmitri and his magical rockets that would hit my boat as I'm getting onto it (and also my helicopter right as I was taking control of it)
Still, my personal advice is that if you're replaying the game again, you should at least try/beat deal mission, just to see what it's like, and just ignore the storyline implications of it.

(Really wish he could become a friend, I think he'd have some good convorsations)
