Whether to take the supplies from the station wagon in TWD. I've no doubts that I did the right thing by taking the supplies, but damn I felt like **** after doing it.

So much this.

What to do about Zhu's Hope. I wanted to let Shiala and the colonists live, honest! But I couldn't let them leave the planet alive, with those spores in their bodies, who knew how many worlds they could contaminate? It tore me up inside to kill them all.

charmander was pretty weak in the original pokemon games, I always liked water types.
hardest choice I ever made in a video game, had to be when I was playing .hack//quartine of the ps2, trying to say Mia or letting her die.

I had no such choice in Yellow version. Brock was a tough bastard!

*ME3 spoiler*

To shoot or not to shoot Mordin Solus in the back to get the Salarian support for the war effort and to stop the Krogans from rising to power again via sabotaging the cure.
Mordins insubordination and selfish thinking endangering the whole mission made me pull the trigger, executing him, sabotaging the cure and destroying the future of an entire race was a very hard decision which made me feel like a major ass for a long time - even though I have never doubted my choice.

:unsure:

ME3's original ending was definitely one.
By extension, I'd have to say Human Revolutions is up there too ;)

Mordin was emotionally tough, but not really ethically (I knew what the right choice was).
(Rannoch was up there too, although as it turns out a 3rd option presented itself)

Mark of the Ninja is the most recent one.


This is actually pretty hard O_O

Whether or not to buy Mass Effect 3. Seriously, had a hard time making up my mind on that one. Actually, it's unfair of me to put ME3 in here by itself. Any franchise that started off relatively small and then took off makes me hesitate (Assassins Creed, for example)

Taking the supplies in Walking Dead was a really hard in-game decision. I've played the Witcher 2 some...maybe I'm just not far enough in (middle of act 2) but nothing's really been super difficult, ethically.

A lot of choices, especially in RPG's, I end up feeling like I don't have the information I need to make the choice...and I dont have the option of asking about it. The choice of which dwarf to support for king in DAO, for example. Playing as a Human Noble, I had no idea if either was actually good or evil. I couldn't really ask questions. It was mostly the two of them sending me off on identical fetch quests. Probably the low spot of an otherwise magnificent game for me.

I can't think of a single ethical decision I struggled with in an RPG.

There are decisions I had trouble with but those were more character based. Would my PC in Skyrim kill Cicero? I had to stop for the evening so I could ponder that one a bit.

Witcher 1, the decision in Act 4 that decides your ending path for good.

I'll admit, my thinking time was doubled by small bits that I thought were going to be affected by my choice, but weren't really in the end. However, thanks to many moments that let you give Geralt some proper character growth (usually discussions relating to handling Geralt's amnesia), I was invested enough in the game to ponder what each choice would mean for Geralt, how it would define his personality and worldview

What to do about Connor in DA:O. Stopped the game to look at a walkthruogh. Was surprised (and a bit dissapointed) going to the Circle would have no negative consequences.

Deciding not to participate in the Dark Ritual when I was playing as a Human Noble romancing Alistair. I hated losing Morrigan's friendship, and it broke my heart when she turned into a wolf and left.

Whether to let the robot give me a haircut in Fallout 3. Narf.

Actually I didn't like stealing in Oblivion. Wish there was a good path up through the thieves' guild.

Massive Walking Dead spoilers ahead. Don't read if you haven't played.









Having Lee kill Duck  before he could turn into a walker.

Ultimately its the right thing both because it relieves Kenny of having to carry out the awful deed, and spares Duck from suffering more and becoming an abomination. It may be an act of mercy, but it is still the killing of a child.

It was also one of the saddest moments in gaming, IMO.

Whether or not to trudge through and explore the lower levels of Blighttown's swampy pus-sac, puke infested cesspool. No, seriously. It's that miserable. But too many items not to explore...not to mention SPOILERS the entrance to The Great Hallow and Ash Lake....secret areas....I missed.

You may ask how this is an ethical choice. I ask: have you ever been in Blighttown...and Blighttown's swamp? It's an ethical, moral AND humanitarian dillema.

And for my troubles, and harassment, and death...I literally got maggots hatched in my brain.

Alpha Protocol - Rome and Taipei

Edit: For the uninitiated: Save one important person or hundreds of innocent ones. You must make a decision in a few seconds.

Rome is pretty brutal since her involvement is more or less your fault, and when she gets captured the Act boss just won't stop taunting you with it while letting her beg to you on the phone.

Personally I never cared for Madison very much, so for me, going after the bombs was the obvious choice.

Now if it had been Mina or Steven Heck, things might have been different.

Can't really pick one, but...the Walking Dead in general. Seriously.

I made some sort of code where I wouldn't pause the game to think on the decisions I had to make, just make it in the heat of it and live with it later. Goddamn was it difficult.

Massive TW2 spoilers.!!!!



Stopping or letting Roche kill Henselt. On one hand he deserve it, but on the other it will plunge the country into chaos and with a war brewing that is a bad bad bad idea. Took me forever to decide.



End TW2 spoilers
