ITT: games that make you wonder if you did the right thing

The Void. It's just kind of morally grey, without "good" or "evil", that's why I like it.

why was that little faggot killing all the colossus anyway?

waifuism

Of course you didn't do the right fucking thing. You stole a magical sword in order to break into forbidden cursed ground that hasn't been inhabited in thousands of years for good reason so you could battle 16 giants that just so happen to be the product of burying an ancient evil's body part in the ground and letting it fester and take form over millenia all because you can't handle the same kind of loss that every fucking human goes through and as a bonus the end result of this misguided quest was putting a curse on your people that lasts for eternity (as seen in all the chamber/cells in the beginning of ICO). You're a selfish, reckless, crybaby asswipe with no regard for anyone's well-being but your own.

But does he smash

Nier didn't make me wonder whether I did the right thing.

It was pretty obvious I did the wrong thing.

At least she raised him instead of leaving him for dead.

>tfw your girlfriend is your mom

Not really, I mean if you think about it most of the conflict was either completely avoidable by just getting the fuck out of niers way, shadowlord not being a massive cunt to nier specifically, or the simple fact that most of the shades are people who have already gone insane and violent and you shouldn't feel bad for killing them. Some of the bosses I felt bad for but beepy was the only one I can think of that actually didn't do anything whatsoever and was purely the victim of niers aggression.

also fuck the wolves they had it coming 100% literally fuck them I still don't get their problem

>the shades at Facade
Were just people trying to reintegrate into village life before Nier and company came to slaughter them.

>The Wolf leader.
Opted for peace before several villagers went out of their way to kill most of the pack, inciting a cycle of revenge.

>The twins
were trying to continue the Gestalt project in hopes of saving the last remnants of humanity.

Not to mention all the shades that were literal children just caught in the middle of everything.

...

>most of the shades are people who have already gone insane and violent
the first thing you do shortly after the tutorial is murder a bunch of children playing outside the village. every shade is justified in trying to kill you for that

Witcher 3

Buying it was a mistake

Damn user...when you put it that way...

And everything could've been avoided if the twins would have just explained everything BEFORE fighting you.

it's the only thing that really bothers me about the game. if you wanna be cryptic to a gang of supernaturally strong subhumans, you deserve to watch your plan fail.

> all because you can't handle the same kind of loss that every fucking human goes through
To be fair, we don't know the exact circumstances of why she had to die, other than Wander saying that she was sacrificed because of her cursed fate.

Doesn't seem to crazy for him to rebel if he was a citizen of some corrupt religious system that was just up for reenacting The Lottery.

I'm not sure how they could have explained it in a way that Nier and company would have been happy to go along with.

Hey guys!! We all know that you have emotions and sentience now, but that wasn't part of our plan. Now we're going to need you to forget about your daughter and let the original Gestalts go ahead and possess your form, erasing everything you are so that they may live on. Would that be alright?

Nier and the the Replicants were clearly in the right though, even shad Yohnah saw that. Almost all of the mook shades had lost their humanity and needed to be put down and the rest of them were trying to play god by unnaturally extending their lifespan for over a thousand years. Fuck the shades.

Weren't they just trying to survive an apocalyptic disease?

>Who am I?

Humanity survived the disease and got to live on in the form of the sentient Replicants. The shades are people form almost a millenium and a half ago who couldn't accept their own deaths and want to selfishly steal the the lives of the Replicants .

In the end you were not doing your job for your pleasure, but to keep hundred's of women trapped in a cruel industry that has no value for human life

The whole operation was not for freedom or revenge, but to make a bunch of (((people))) in the defense industry rich as fuck while your high school friends got mauled and killed by IEDs in countries that never tried to harm the US

But the Replicants were never supposed to be sentient. If they don't reunite with the original Gestalts they'll eventually succumb to the Black Scrawl when their shade finally goes feral.

...

Both games

He just wanted to be a good father ;-;
or at least that is what his daughter wanted to believe. Underrated SH game.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I still certainly don't think Nier was as in the wrong for not wanting to give up his and his daughter's existance to the shadowlord though.

>Dormin is an ancient evil

says who? ;)

That's fair. But Nier's group definitely crossed some moral boundaries in his quest to prioritize Yonah over everyone and everything.

It does make sense from his limited perspective, but he piled up a lot of dead innocents along the way. Inadvertent or not.

You never knew him. And you never will...

Why were some of the Americans shooting civilians though?
That whole tragedy was just because of bad communication.
