Expedition 33, the gem, made me think of this. There is no specific order, but my top 10 is as followed.
OG Aerith - the unexpectedness of it. Her kind heart and wonderful personality. And to be taken away like that.
Noctis - He grew on me during my 167 hours with FFXV. Him and his bros were inseperable. That final campfire hurt.
Lee Everett - Everything he did for Clem and then he goes out like that. He was a boss.
Dom - Marcus’s bro. Seeing how pitiful he became in GoW 3. Death was a relief.
Ghost and Roach - WTF Shepard…
Gustave - I fell in love with his relatability. He was just this normal dude doing an inhuman task and he did it well. Made great bonds. Badass arm. And then… gone.
Zack Fair - The opposite of emo Cloud. This dude loved life and he sacrificed his to save his buddy.
Galuf - Went out like a Chad to Exdeath.
The Virmire sacrifice - regardless of whether it was Ashley or Kaiden, the fact that they were gone for good because of your choice hurt like hell.
I didn’t put V in because other than the worst ending (Devil) and second worst ending (Temperance), V’s death wasn’t definative.
The Sun means blue eyes may save him. The Stars means Panam may find something or someone, and the NUSA ending saved him outright, but at such a high cost he’d been better off dead.

2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
V from Cyberpunk 2077 is #1 for me.
I haven’t played enough games where the protagonist dies to fill out the rest.
