* DrivenToSuicide:

to:

* DrivenToSuicide:CruelAndUnusualDeath: Various endings have them killed gruesomely by Buddy [[DrivenToSuicide or themselves]]. In Shutdown, Buddy stabs them multiple times, crushes their skull, and rips out some of their teeth. In Nice Try, Buddy drives a crowbar inside their head. In Pathetic, the player slits their wrists and bleeds to death, and in Short Circuit, also touches the inside of Buddy's wires and is electrocuted; in both Short Circuit and Preservation, Buddy then removes half their head, starting from the nose, and leaves multiple wounds on them. Finally, in Not Getting Away, Buddy deprives them of air until they die of asphyxiation.
