You win, Batman kills Joker and we lose an iconic character.
Whats next?
Batman starts killing criminals willy-nilly, becomes a villain, and is put down in his sleep by Alfred with a shotgun.

Isnt part of the problem here that Batman successfully catches his enemies only for the system to be so goddamn useless that they keep getting out? Thats what I meant about the narrative bending over backwards.

In a more natural setting theyd just be tried and imprisoned. Batmans job is done and considering killing them was never necessary.

Deadpool movie spoilers

Deadpool wouldnt let the kid kill the principal. Comic book Deadpool would have killed the principal himself to stop the kid from killing him. The movie had a cab driver kill the principal instead in an accident.

I like that Uncharted has ludonarrative dissonance.

Nate only kills guys who would kill him. Otherwise hes a good decent guy.

On the other hand, Tenchu gives you bonus points for every kill.

Batman Forever mostly has the same ending.

Somethings that I hated about that, is like them and Cable killed a lot of innocent people alone the way. Like that had to mess some shit up
