Choices in video games may seem simple at first, but they are extremely important in any situation. For example, choosing a character’s name and appearance is always a time-consuming step for anyone. And in the content of games too, there are always situations that require us to make choices. Some decisions even haunt gamers in a heavy, simple way like the following cases.
Fallout 3
Fallout games are often very popular precisely because of these difficult choices. Typically in Fallout 3. The first inhabited area that gamers must encounter is Megaton – a small city with only a few people left and is even about to be destroyed by an unactivated bomb. remaining below the surface.
At this point, gamers will have to choose whether to detonate this bomb or not. Of course, no one will destroy a village for no reason, but remember, if you do, you will receive generous rewards from the rich people who have assigned the task before.
The Witcher 3
The most interesting point of The Witcher 3 lies in the storytelling style and the choices players have to make as Geralt. In it, a difficult choice is whether to release the evil tree spirit or destroy it. Both have different positive and negative aspects. The evil tree itself tells Geralt that if it is released, the children will be saved.
There is no way to determine the truthfulness of the above statement, making this a rather difficult choice. If the tree spirit is released, the children will live but Anna, the Baron and the villages involved will have to sacrifice themselves and vice versa.
Life is Strange
It is no coincidence that Life is Strange became famous as soon as it was released. The game itself also forces gamers to make choices that determine the lives of the main characters. Even the ending of the game is quite haunting, when gamers have to make a heartbreaking decision.
After going through dozens of difficulties, the main character, Max, will have to choose whether to save Chloe or the entire Arcadia Bay. If they choose Chloe, Arcadia Bay will be wiped out by a tornado and no one will survive except them. On the contrary, if you choose Arcadia Bay, Max’s next scene will be attending Chloe’s funeral.
