i like when games let you be a jackass and don't like... try to 'all sides are valid UwU' it. Just let me pick the bastard choice.
#its a lot more fun to pick asshole options in a game that like has a perspective on tha shit#but lets you do it anyways (bg3 - greedfall - fable games)#than it is ones that are like 'they're all equally good and bad so your choice doesn't matter at all'#like less 'all sides are morally equal so your choice is valid' and more 'its a video game pick what you want it's cool'#like not to blame inquisition cause i do love that game#but you don't see people doing long think pieces about how it's actually gross and immoral to help goblins clear out the grove#it's like yeah it's the 'evil/bad' choice but it's a game go do it go have fun#and i thinka big part of that is that it not only lets you but also lets you revel in those choices and plays up the bastardry to such a fu#level - not dissimilarly to like picking the brothel over an orphanage in fable 3#they know what they're doing so they can have fun with it vs trying to make it feel fair and balanced#dai is like video game bbc#no i can't explain what i mean it's like 7am and my cat woke me up at 5 and im exhausted
