there are some decisions you don't want
to agonize over welcome to watchmojo.com
10 dumbest moral choices in videogames
all we want is to live free so for this
list we're only looking at choices we're
only one of the options makes sense as
it's something a reasonable person would
do making the decisions ridiculous and
easy but there are still massive
spoilers ahead come on you prick I
taught you everything you know not
everything number 10 the sword of Aeons
fable it's time I found where I belong I
know it isn't here this ancient
longsword is one of two most powerful
weapons in the game and you have to be
on your wife's behavior in order to get
it at fables climax the hero must murder
his own sister to bring the sword up to
the full power because she's part of the
archons powerful bloodline however
there's just one problem
you're not presented with this choice
until after you defeat Jack of blades
the final boss so you don't even need
such a powerful weapon and then if you
destroyed the sword of valence itself
you're granted the equally powerful
Evo's tier so what exactly do you gain
by killing your sister
number 9 rescue or Harless the little
sisters Bioshock the legal sisters are
unsettling it best when you first
encounter them but they're the real
victims at the heart of Bioshock the
result of generic experiments they
traveled through rapture gathering Adam
the city's most powerful substance and
you can choose to rescue them or harvest
them taking all their atom for yourself
but the choice has very little gameplay
repercussions since if you rescue the
sisters they'll leave you a gift of Adam
outsider gatherers garden meaning you'll
end up with basically the same amount
regardless if that wasn't bad enough the
game's evil ending isn't remotely
satisfying and not considered canon
you're better off just rescuing them all
number eight save John or the money Red
Dead Redemption - I head down there I'm
dead in five minutes I've got a family
that's more important huh maybe you're
right you want the money you head down
maybe this choice would be hard if it
wasn't so easy to accumulate money in
Red Dead 2 but by the time you get to
the end of chapter 6
you've probably bought everything you
could ever need so why would Arthur
return to the camp align and try to
rescue the gang savings instead of
helping John get to safety while we know
that John will survive no matter what
since he has to go understand the
original game Arthur is in the late
stages of tuberculosis at this point so
why would he need the money anymore if
he's gonna die anyway of course we're
gonna help John you don't even get to
keep the money in the end if you choose
the latter since Arthur dies at the end
of the mission no matter what outcome
you pick

number seven the plague family
Assassin's Creed Odyssey and my friend
kina is - there is a blood fevered they
say it's a Curtis and they need help
from the gods when a deadly plague
begins to ravage a village on kefalonia
Cassandra or Alexios is roped in to
decide what to do about particular
family they don't have any symptoms of
illness but the priest insists on
killing them to contain the outbreak cow
sauce was consumed by plague we couldn't
keep up with your bodies it was
spreading we had to intervene and you
have to choose whether decide with the
priests or the plating family here's the
thing though with our modern knowledge
of how diseases are spread at your
fingertips it becomes clear that even
without symptoms the family could still
spread the plague and true to the
science if you let the plaining get the
better of you the blood fever spreads to
the entire island so why would you even
choose that I sickness has spread across
the island they say it started in cow
sauce there doesn't seem to be a core
many have died malacca that priest was
right
number six shoot the pedestrians or not
infamous here
enough to feed the three of us for weeks
maybe longer
while infamous my pride itself on
complex moral decisions some of the
options are a little too black-and-white
including the first one call ever faces
when a food caches are dropped into the
city and get stuck on a monument it's
down to coal to get the supplies to the
people or is that the crowd and take all
the food for himself and Zeke it's more
of a choice between blue lightning and
red lightning because aside from that
there are no in-game consequences for
this actions eat this crap Cole won't be
weaker if he lets the people take the
food and he won't be stronger if he has
it all to himself he gets in Trish's bad
box but that's about it what's wrong
with you people are starving and you're
stealing the only food they've seen in
days I did it for us to make sure we're
taking care of I'll get you some x
number five abandoned Jericho Detroit
become human
[Music]
rather than become the Android Messiah
Marcus's destined to be if you fail all
of his missions either by accident or on
purpose Marcus will be exiled from
Jericho in favor of North taking over
though he can choose whether to return
to the ship and save his fellow androids
when the humans attack or cut his losses
and run to save himself if you choose to
save only Marcus though which literally
goes against everything the game had
been building up Marcus to be you're
treated to a brief cutscene making clear
that the Android Revolution never
happened before getting booted back to
the title screen while there
khloé the menu Android tells you that
your choice was a malfunction seems this
choice was so dumb Quantic Dream didn't
even want to go through with it
I detect a malfunction in my program
this is worrying number four death wish
Grand Theft Auto 5 a P or C times
ticking pow
after playing through dozens of hours
with the three protagonists the final
mission thread is given to Franklin he
either has to kill Michael kill Trevor
or team up with them to take down the
fib once and for all
there's no real incentive for Franklin
to betray his closest allies especially
not when the option to side with both of
them for an epic shootout is readily
available
the only reason not to do the third way
is if you simply want to see all the
endings but even then betraying Trevor
and/or Michael isn't consistent with
Franklin's character so now where now we
keep a low profile and get on with our
lives
as friends do I have a choice No number
three leave Batman Batman Arkham City it
appears we have caught our in
catwoman may not have the best moral
compass but she draws the line at
leaving Batman to die even if it does
mean she gets away with all of her loot
but this didn't stop rock city from
presenting the choice to the player like
leading Batman to his doom actually made
sense if Catwoman doesn't help the Dark
Knight Joker is able to take over Gotham
and wreak havoc causing untold horror
and destruction as relayed by Oracle
over the credits but the worst part is
that even if you do choose this the game
just simply a whines itself until you
make the right choice to end rescue the
bat figured you could use my help you're
right I think I chipped a nail back
there you stick with the brooding I'll
handle the wisecracks number su
installing the FEV
fallout 3 so what should we do draw
straws the entire game is spent battling
for control of project purity and the
right to distribute safe clean water to
the capital wasteland but if you're
feeling pretty - sadly you can go along
with President Eden's plan to install
the modified forced evolutionary virus
into the purifier and poison everyone
instead Eden's reasoning is that the
waste line needs a clean slate but the
option comes way too late in the game to
be compelling it's not a choice with any
nuance since you're really choosing
whether or not to have the good or bad
karma rather than grappling with what's
the best future for the wasteland not to
mention it's at the ending so the choice
of karma doesn't even matter honestly
having an important choice like this at
the ending just doesn't cut it but the
virus contained within soon eradicated
all the
and unworthy of salvation before we

your friends or join Citra far cry 3
Jason Brody spends all of Far Cry 3
desperately trying to rescue his friends
and escape the island to return to
America but when you get to the end you
can choose just to forget all that kill
your friends and go along with Citra
while it does showed us how far into
violence Jason has descended it's still
odd to be given the choice of murdering
your own girlfriend or completing the
story you've thought you've been playing
the whole time even if you do pick Citra
though it turns out that Jason was never
the hero he thought cetra stabs him in
front of the tribe
he should have really quit while he was
ahead I'm sorry in the mood for more
