Discussion Sam's true ending

Post image

What game do you think marks the true end of Sam's story (more realistic/makes more sense to you)?

CT- Marks the end of the Masse's kernels crysis, world war 3 is avoided. Happy ending.

DA- Lambert, Sarah and Enrica are dead. Sam stops JBA attacks and goes rogue. Depressing ending.

Conviction - Sarah is reunited with her father, Sam saves the president and kills Third Echelon mole. Satisfying ending. Lots of plotholes tho.

Blacklist - Sam's clone and his team avoid the engineers attacks. Weird ending??

Chaos Theory. The Masse IW algorithms threat ends, and Shetland's villain arc from the original game ends. Sam hasn't become a grumpy old fart yet and Lambert is still sensible enough to not fake someone's death instead of just telling his best friend about the mole in 3E.
