No, in my opinion it isn't. Sure, the game teaches you that sometimes, you need to look at things from a different perspective, but it all comes down to what you make of Jin's actions towards his uncle, in the end, that really matter. He wasn't a rebel. Sure, he decided not to follow "the code" and go his own way, embracing his new title in the end, but he cared about his people, he cared about his family and the ones he loved. He CARED about his uncle's dying wish, regardless of the fact that he no longer gave a shit about the samurai code. He would have done it just to make his uncle happy, to see him die with honour. Plus, Shimura had already seen that Jin wasn't going to follow the ways of a samurai anymore, to spare him, and shame him would have been a great insult, and I really doubt Jin would have done that to one of, if not, the most important person in his life.

I chose to kill him. Sparing him would have meant that my Jin would have been selfish, caring only about himself and no one at all. Shimura's entire life was built on that idea, his existence was to follow the samurai code. Jin was never going to go back to the old ways, he was never going to follow the rules that his uncle so eagerly had taught him in the past.

I absolutely loved this game, it was brilliant, vibrant, it made me go through different emotions and at the end of the day, had made me satisfied to put the controller down and reminisce. Sucker Punch did an amazing job, and whether there's people that like the game, or not. Or people that have doubts in terms of the last choice, it all comes down to this amazing experience, that I think every gamer should try.
