The one I remember the most is the old lady in the farm that Kain helped for some summers while he was travelling. Each summer he would return there to help her. One summer, the country in which the farm was located got struck by war and he found the farm decimated and the old lady dead. It was heartbreaking to read :(

I don't think it's about developers not having the balls to do it, it's more, can the target public handle it? If snake really offed himself, would most MGS fans forgive kojima? The public and the fans are very volatile people, developers have to thread on thin ground when they develop very delicate situations suchs as those two.
Imagine in FFVII what would have been the fan backlash had Cloud actually killed Aeris himself? I think SquareSoft could have been sued :P
