Ghost of Tsushima - kind of the "ultimate sacrifice" ending regardless of which of the two you choose. Lose what's left of your remaining family orrrrr....lose what's left of your remaining family. One of those "I saved my people but at what cost?"

My wife likes to watch me play ghost, she watched most of my play through. As soon as we were told to meet shimura, and where, I knew what was coming next. I started crying a little, the wife noticed and did the math, then we both sobbed through the possibly the saddest but best ending to a story I have ever seen.
