The story try to make us think this moment is some great dilemma for the characters but one of the options is obviously better than the other if you have above room temperature IQ
| Life is Strange (Save Chloe vs. Save Arcadia Bay): At the climax, Max is forced to choose between sacrificing an entire town full of innocent people, families, and children to a massive storm, or letting Chloe die. The game plays sad music and forces you to agonize over the choice. Chloe is a walking disaster magnet who has already almost died 4 or 5 times in a single week due to her own reckless behavior (like getting her foot stuck in a train track or accidentally shooting herself). Destroying a whole ecosystem and killing thousands of people just to save one girl who has a literal cosmic death warrant on her is a completely lopsided, nonsensical choice Maleficent (Stefan's Choice): Stefan is given a choice between staying with Maleficent literal immortal, breathtakingly gorgeous fairy queen with god-like magic who genuinely loves him or betraying her to become a human king during THE MEDIEVAL ERA where people live for like 30 years. The movie frames this as a tragic sacrifice for ambition. But under a real-world lens? He gave up magic and a literal utopia just to sit on a cold stone throne, rule over a dirty, disease-ridden medieval kingdom, and spend his short human life suffering from extreme paranoia and assassination plots. It is objectively the stupidest trade-off in cinematic history. The Last of Us Part I (Joel's Final Choice): The game and show try to present this as the ultimate tragic dilemma to save the human race by letting the Fireflies dissect Ellie’s brain, or slaughter the hospital to save her. But realistically the Fireflies are a failing, incompetent terrorist militia operating out of a dirty, unsterile hospital. They have zero infrastructure to mass-produce or distribute a vaccine globally. Sacrificing the only immune person on Earth to a bunch of desperate amateurs is a terrible medical decision. Joel rescuing Ellie was the only logical choice. GTA V (Ending A vs Ending B): Excluding the "Deathwish" ending where everyone lives, the game tries to frame Option A (Kill Trevor) and Option B (Kill Michael) as a heartbreaking choice of loyalty. But it’s completely lopsided. Michael is Franklin's mentor, the man who got him out of the hood, made him rich, and has a family depending on him. Trevor, on the other hand, is an unhinged, cannibalistic, meth-dealing psychopath and a literal ticking time bomb who murders people for no reason. Killing Trevor is a necessary community service; killing Michael is a sociopathic betrayal. There is no real debate here. [link] [comments] |
