Massive stars get hotter, burn their fuel faster, and therefore live shorter.With respect to their "death": Stars of "normal" mass become white dwarves; more massive stars become neutron stars, and the most massive stars become black holes.

What matters is the mass at the end of its life. To a great extent, this depends on the initial mass, but the star may get additional mass, especially from a neighboring star in a close binary system; or it may shed a lot of mass during its lifetime.

It's fate is determined by its initial mass since that determines the manner in which it "lives".

How is hydrostatic equilibrium in a star determined by its mass?

In order for a star to form, gas from an interstellar cloud has to be gravitationally attracted toward a center of gravity. The strength of the gravitational attraction depends upon the amount of mass (and its density, which of course increases as the star is in the process of being formed). It takes a certain amount of mass to create a star, otherwise all you will have is an interstellar gas cloud.
