Reader Discussion – What Is The Most Agonizing Choice You've Had To Make In A Game?
One of the major aspects of games that separate them from other mediums is the way players can express themselves by making choices. Many of those are mechanical ("should I upgrade my health or defense?") but many of them are narrative.
While many of these choices are black and white ("should you save or kill the Little Sisters in BioShock?"), but some of them can be layered and interesting, causing us to think twice, sometimes pausing the game for a bit.
So which choices in games gave you the most pause? Did you have sleep on the repercussions of the Genophage in Mass Effect when making the final choice? Did the Witcher 2's big choice between Roche and Iorveth in The Witcher 2 make you think twice? Let us know in the comments.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
