"C'est la Vie" certainly isn't a bad ending, as the Red Line are still technically defeated, though "Redemption" presents a far less grim victory for Artyom and the Rangers. There's also the fact that the previous Metro game had its true ending hidden behind a similar morality system. RELATED: Star Wars: How Gungan Frontier Explored the Biodiversity of NabooĪrtyom's death in "C'est la Vie" is a major red flag that tell fans it isn't canon - especially after Metro Exodus brought him back as the player character. This ending picks up with Artyom's wife telling her child of Artyom's sacrifice, describing his last act as heroic. In a last-ditch effort to keep Red Line from taking D6, Artyom detonates the base's self-destruct sequence, killing everyone inside. In "C'est la Vie," Artyom and the Rangers are quickly overrun by the Red Line forces. The conclusion of this battle is different between endings. Both endings follow the main player character, Artyom, and the Rangers as they fight against the Red Line. Both endings follow the final level of the game, called D6. This is also the name of a military base that serves as the location of the Last Light's final battle, the Battle for D6. While "C'est la Vie" is technically Last Light's "bad" ending, it's more of a neutral ending than anything.
