#QuestionOfTheDay what's a decision you're forced to make in a game that you think is unfair/not your call to make/etc
For eg a decision that offers you unfair choices where an obvious better alternative exists that you're just not allowed to have, or a decision that shouldn't be up to your character to make and has far reaching consequences etc
i.e. not simply a decision you don't want to make (choose who gets to die in a situation where you're in charge and the choice is reasonable and necessary)
@ami_angelwings since i'm playing it right now for the first time: in stardew valley the mayor is sleeping with one of the townsfolk (no cheating or problematic age difference or anything) and when you reveal that you know about it he asks you to keep it a secret. your options are to agree or to say "no i'm going to tell EVERYONE" and the latter is, like, the Bad Guy option apparently. but there's no good reason it should be a secret and the other party isn't happy that he wants to keep it one, so it rubbed me the wrong way that your options are Complicit or Mean And Bad

@ami_angelwings Conan Exile: The player must attack people in order to keep them as slaves until they die. Never ever.

Persona 5, some time after a genuinely pretty good plot line about bounding with a girl classmate who is dealing with the aftermath of her best friend committing suicide as result of sexual assault by their teacher, male protagonist hangs out with her and the joke has three options1. Sexually harass your friend
2. Sexually harass your friend
3. Sexually harass your friendFuck off
@BigShellEvent @ami_angelwings I don't remember that ever happening
