That thumbnail from the final choice in Infamous 2 just got me in the heart. I loved that game series. It deserves a remastered version, in my opinion.
Dude for real i have been watching them for a while now and your right the high quality un the vídeos never got worse and it seems like they enjoy what there doing
Oh man yeah. That vault 34 choice was a tough one. Honestly I chose to save the crops. I didn’t want the radiation to poison the crops & get everyone sick. Still feel bad though. I didn’t like leaving those vault dwellers trapped.
@@Steel-101 Like, they say they need master control on their end to escape, but they can just open the way, then transfer the control back so you can shut it down. >.o But yeah, I gladly made the same choice as you did, because a single family isn't as important as the lives of many people, across many generations (since poisoned land means poisoned people, and that has far-reaching consequences, especially if it's radiation exposure; we're still seeing fallout for that in the Middle East and Asia, such as with Kazakhstan).
@@KainYusanagi There's a lot of quests in the Fallout games where that kind of thing would make sense, but they always tell you it's one or the other. In some you can kind of understand, if you reroute the power from the solar plant, then the relays will be fried or something, so it can't be changed back later.
I was going through the comments to see if anyone noticed this fruedian slip and it seemed like no1 had hahaha. So glad I found someone else who caught it
@@herrikudo really? I never knew you can play as magneto in the first place btw, so it’s cool to know you can save both of them with him. But does it show a different cutscene in the post credits?
He's the hero we made him, trying to explain to my sister why all the little reminders of the series in Ghost of Tsushima hit hard is just impossible, she wasn't much of a gamer at the time, the whole series including Festival of Blood deserve a full remaster, with the UGC brought back for 2 and FoB because New Marais just wouldn't be the same without somebody's insane parkour run to try.
But the good ending isn't Canon as the next 2 had them back which says the bad ending is the Canon ending where Cole becomes the beast awakens others and they become immune to a disease that's killer to humans.
@@robertharrison1058 The good ending is canon. The devs looked to see what most people got as their first ending (trophies and the like) and wrote the story of 2nd son with that in mind. It didn't stop them from just creating a new generation of conduits which is kind of strange, but it works well enough. Cole may not have been a hero to most of the world, but he was to the people of New Marais.
@@WaitWwhaaat no way why make frist light and second son the good ending isn't Canon as that's the end of conduits and the humans chsnce of survival from a killer virus the whole Augustine and the dups that's from the bad ending where the none powered humans fight back which is Canon otherwise the 2 sequels frist light and second son shouldn't exist as there's no conduits either the devs are on Crack or your full of it because the good ending ends all conduits for good while the bad ending starts a war with them which lead to the formation of the dup under Augustine in the 2 sequels as remember the plot conduits was on the rise not decline that happened more with the bad ending when Cole went around awakening more conduits.
Because the good and bad ending are really the opposite because if you followed the plot all the way through there's a killer virus that's going to wipe out the human race and only conduits are immune to it the good ending is the evil ending as no conduits no immunity and all humans die of the virus the bad ending saves at least 20% of the humans by making them conduits meaning a population that can rise anew by breeding and possibly a cure as conduits have immunity but no regular humans never thought that as shown in the frist light and second son with there hate of conduits.
Infamous takes me back to a perfect era of gaming. Infamous: Second Son was released 8 years ago and it's literally still more beautiful visually and more fun than most of the recent games.
I understand that Delson wasn't as well liked as Cole. But I thought his hero ark was wonderful and loved him by the end. Wish they gave him a more timeless look instead of the beeny.
Gameranx has quickly grown to be the standard. Consistent, thoughtful, and entertaining content. Gameranx really said to the rest of vg journalism channels “I’ve raised the bar, join me up here won’t you?”
@James Abrazado Uhhh "Quickly Grown"? Really? Haha Gameranx has been around for so long. N have had over a million subs for years. I agree they are quality and on point... I like how they do these random lists on cool topics all the time n not just gaming news like most channels
That final decision in Infamous 2 really threw me. I remember having to stop for a few minutes because it challenged my perception of everything. Both 1 and 2 were fantastic, and really made me wanna replay them just to go the other route.
The game SOMA has a lot of hard choices. Such a fantastic & beautiful game with a few scares. I have a slight fear of the deep ocean so it was pretty terrifying in some areas in the game but absolutely worth it. It's a masterpiece imo.
I mean.. I think Fallout 3 for me was scary as I was a teenager at the time. I felt like all of my choices mattered and felt horrible when my attempts to fix things made them worse. Tranquility lane was a horrible place that did a good job creeping me out
@@Hellbane224 as it should be, as a player you are just supposed to enjoy whatever there is in those world's, those places will always be shitty whatever you do but at least you know you are free to do whatever you like, its not for the faint of heart
Nier Automata's ending actually was the "hardest choice" I had to make, but also the most no-brainer choice. I didn't particularly like it, but as it came to a close I felt it necessary to do and I didn't try to cheat the system or otherwise circumvent the consequences. Just kind of felt like the right thing to do. Probably one of the most complete and fulfilling endings in any game I've ever played.
Yup. Doing that final step offline, without any help, was one of the hardest fucking challenges I've done in the past three decades (basically, all my life gaming), I swear.
@ANOTHERlostone Actually disagree with you. That one is far, far easier if you just stop trying to rely on your eyes and follow your ears. There's also a video out there you can sync up with the game that will give you visual cues, if you can't do audio ones like the game expects you to do.
I always thought it was a old message, that the vault 34 dweller's left, so I always chose to help the NCR croppers instead,(because I always thought they were the ghouls that got released after making the decision) it wasn't until awhile ago, I discovered that it actually freed them. But yeah, it was definitely a morale dilemma, the lives of the few vs the lives of many who rely on the crops that come from the farmers and the farmers jobs too as a whole.
Haven't played it since release, but DA:Origins took it up a few notches since your decisions affected how you interacted with your party. In at least one case, a party member would attack you if you made a certain decision about what skills you used
Ah, the infamous series. I think that was the first game franchise I played with good or bad choices (and possibly the first where I did another play through of them to see things from the other side). I remember when I was at the last choice of Infamous, destroy the Ray Sphere or use the Ray Sphere, during this time I was doing the Good karma story, so I decided to use the Ray Sphere under the mindset of ‘this will only drop my karma down a few points, plus I’m fighting the final boss soon after this I need to be at my strongest,’ only to see after the cutscene had ended that my blue electric bar was now red and was now to see I was now Infamous. I thought ‘why did the game make Cole evil from that choice?’ it took me some time later to realize why that choice and also showed me how quickly people’s opinion(s) can change from one decision.
Even though it ended up being the Canon ending with frist light and second son but that was to immunize as much of the world as possible against a virus that was to wipe out the human race as conduits are 100% immune to the killer virus that was the point of the bad ending save as much of the world's population from a killer virus by awakening conduits as they are immune the good ending is actually the worst ending as no conduits the killer virus wipes out the human race which is why i always chose the evil ending on infamous 2 as it's really the better ending of the 2 when you really think about it.
Nier creators are genius in creating such thing as in game of software wise "sacrificing" oneself means to delete safe files, which just makes sense, except for obvious reasons it has never been implemented in such "literal" way, so this makes sense, but it's just brutal.
Seeing Infamous 2 being brought up got me really excited. One of my favourite games of all time that is too underlooked. The good ending still gets me somewhat teary eyed
Regarding the whispering hillock: If you read the lore books, especially the one on necromancy, and also spend a good chunk of time talking to the people of downwarren you can ultimately put together the fact that the town is deeply complicit in necromancy, child sacrifice, and cannibalism. (A large chunk of the southern area of the map is apparently complicit actually, but downwarren is a little deeper into it.) It makes the decision way less difficult.
I fucking LOVE inFamous 2, but the hardest thing about the 'evil' ending for me was pulling the trigger on Zeke. I legit tried for what felt like an HOUR before I could fire the final shot at him and I wept the whole time... Half as long. Twice as bright. RIP Zeke...
I absolutely loved Detroit Become Human, I'm now unbelievably excited hearing that Qunatic Dream is now making a Star Wars game! Quantic Dream and Bioware are basically the only studios left doing big rpg, heavily choice driven, yet still has combat type games ever since the fall of Telltale and Lionhead Studios. I cannot stress enough how I wish more game studios would make more games like what we have seen from the above-mentioned studios. Oh and to whoever was the guy playing in the video clip you showed of DA Origins: You sir have picked the best party members to fight with you in that game!😁
The hardest thing about the Vault 34 choice is, that you normally get karma if you do something good or lose it when you do something bad, but here you get nothing, so you have to make up your own mind.
In infamous 2, the good girl supporting the evil choice made sense to me, she wanted to survive. But the other supporting the good choice, did not feel that organic. She was pure Chaos...
She wasn’t really making a selfless choice she just wanted The Beast dead cause he killed her pets who she considered her family. If the beast hadn’t have done that she would not have cared.
Not seeing Wolfenstien the new order getting some love in comments lol Also thx for mentioning it It's great for its time and those visuals are brilliant
for #2, the Dragon Age choice, we do know that the child does not become the anti-christ, Keiran is a a rather well behaved kid, even if he has the soul of the old one, and his grandmother takes the soul from him anyway so he's just a normal kid. What we don't know is if by doing so it allows Flemeth to survive being betrayed by Solas.
Well, for me it was a VERY difficult choice to make, cause my Warden romanced Alistair, so well... chosing to let Morrigan sleep with him was SO hard for me :s
I'd add choosing to side with Roche or Iorveth in The Witcher 2 to these kind of lists as it creates an entirely different game after that. I played both sides but there are still some other decisions I haven't made and if I were to play W2 a third time, I wouldn't know what side to choose (again) because I liked both stories equally for different reasons :)
"The Whispering HillCOCK?!" Oh man, I can't believe no one caught this at 10:18. My brain immediately caught it and I bust out laughing so hard! I scrolled through and didn't really see any comments on it.
While not a binary choice in the same way as laid out in this list, I always agonize over the character creation options at the beginning of some games, especially if I can't change them later. Even the cosmetic choices make me nervous because I know there is no way I will be able to resist the temptation to change the chin shape of my character if I didn't like the way it looked in the cutscenes. I'm pretty sure I've had to sit through Commander Shepherd pushing people out of the way to watch Joker take the Normandy through the mass relay in the opening scene of Mass Effect a million times for all the restarting I've had to do. Y'all perfectionists know what I'm talking about...😁
Two things… 1st I always pick the fire starter except in Arcues. 2nd in inFAMOUS 2 the hardest part about picking the evil ending. You have to kill Zek. Which hit me in the feels something bad.
10:18 When he says, "The Whispering HillCock" 🤣🤣 I literally just spit water all over my keyboard. I swear these guys do not actually play most of the games they talk about.
I don't think it's a bug, it's just an option you wouldn't really know of unless you completed those quests at least once before. Otherwise you'd have to have accidentally stumbled onto the Ancient Oak prior to being sent there, talked to the spirit, and agreed to do the ritual for it. The werewolf guarding it is also kind of a deterrant lol.
I kinda want to see a Gameranx + WhatCulture Gaming collaboration, especially between Falcon and Jules Gils (the bird and the egg). Feels like it’ll be a fun time for all involved.
Pokemon’s starters are the difficulty options. At least originally they were. As one makes the first few gyms easy / neutral, one is balanced, and the other is difficult but rewarding long-term.
Honestly the choice with Markus was easy for me as I like Carl as a character and with Kara I love the interaction between Alice and Todd if he survives but I am unsure if it changes if you do a violent playthrough with Markus
Amazing Content as always 😎👌 but I was surprised to see that Deus Ex wasn't on the list like human revolution or something there are some hard hard choices in the franchise
Imagine if siblings or a couple or something were both playing through Nier and one of them deleted all of the save files before the other person could finish the game 😬
I hated the Infamous 2 choice because I wanted to side with the character I spent the whole game working with and then it made them my enemy. It wasn't satisfying for me at all
Not sure if you know but there is a third option in Witcher 3. I will not go into details but it is still possible to save both children and Baron's wife.
The developers for infamous actually created second son off of the majority choice of what people picked in infamous 2. So if people had picked the evil option over the good option, second son wouldn’t even have been a thing
The choice in Life is Strange was pretty easy. A town vs a selfish person who is being a bad friend isn't a hard choice. Haven't heard anyone saying it is a hard choice, heck it is more a hard choice NOT saving the town.
In the remake of Nier, If you save Kaine, your saves aren't actually deleted. Not really. You have to play the game again as Kaine to get the true ending and get everything back.
if i am remembering correctly, the devs of infamous had stated because the majority of people had picked the good ending on the first play through, that it offically killed off cole and had we all gone with the evil ending we would have gotten a infamous 3 with cole as the main character. which is just sad lol
I'm glad you brought up Detroit. But I must disagree with your pick here... For me the Chloe choice was absolutely the hardest thing I've ever done. On my first playthrough I cried when I picked her to die
For me it was Hawke or Stroud in DAI. On one hand you are invested in hawke but on the other grey wardens are badass and you don’t know how the decision will affect dragon age dreadwolf
Metal Gear Solid 1 you have to choose to fight through a torture scene or submit. Depending on the choice changes the ending scene. If you submit the girl dies if you fight through, the girl survives.
I really enjoyed the video, but the gameranx crew should chip in for a thesaurus. How many times do you need to say Basically? Small gripe I know and yet not repeating the same words or phrase every time one wishes to simplify, get to the bottom, or sum up an idea... a larger vocabulary helps get the point across.
Yes Charmander, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle are definitely the hardest choices... they all evolve into something badass. Also, being that Gen 1 was in my elementary school days those were the days I was obsessed and since then I suppose that all the pokemon I choose if I were to get back into the games would be based on looks.

I played both sides but there are still some other decisions I haven't made and if I were to play W2 a third time, I wouldn't know what side to choose (again) because I liked both stories equally for different reasons :)
It's almost 2023 and I'm still wishing for Infamous 3. One of the coolest series I ever got to see from E3 and love it from 1 to 2.
"The Whispering HillCOCK?!" Oh man, I can't believe no one caught this at 10:18. My brain immediately caught it and I bust out laughing so hard! I scrolled through and didn't really see any comments on it.
While not a binary choice in the same way as laid out in this list, I always agonize over the character creation options at the beginning of some games, especially if I can't change them later. Even the cosmetic choices make me nervous because I know there is no way I will be able to resist the temptation to change the chin shape of my character if I didn't like the way it looked in the cutscenes.
I'm pretty sure I've had to sit through Commander Shepherd pushing people out of the way to watch Joker take the Normandy through the mass relay in the opening scene of Mass Effect a million times for all the restarting I've had to do. Y'all perfectionists know what I'm talking about...😁
The Bird or the Cage. To this day it still haunts me
Two things… 1st I always pick the fire starter except in Arcues. 2nd in inFAMOUS 2 the hardest part about picking the evil ending. You have to kill Zek. Which hit me in the feels something bad.
10:18 When he says, "The Whispering HillCock" 🤣🤣 I literally just spit water all over my keyboard. I swear these guys do not actually play most of the games they talk about.
there's actually a way to save the Baron's wife, without her turning to a hag, while releasing the spirit, idr if it was a bug/exploit or intentional.
I don't think it's a bug, it's just an option you wouldn't really know of unless you completed those quests at least once before. Otherwise you'd have to have accidentally stumbled onto the Ancient Oak prior to being sent there, talked to the spirit, and agreed to do the ritual for it. The werewolf guarding it is also kind of a deterrant lol.
I love how they used fallout 4 when saying "video games sometimes give you a choice"
Dude... I remember on my second playthrough of the witcher 3 I decided to save the tree. Possibly the worst decision I ever made to be honest.
I kinda want to see a Gameranx + WhatCulture Gaming collaboration, especially between Falcon and Jules Gils (the bird and the egg). Feels like it’ll be a fun time for all involved.
What about the Poison in Heavy Rain?
Pokemon’s starters are the difficulty options. At least originally they were. As one makes the first few gyms easy / neutral, one is balanced, and the other is difficult but rewarding long-term.
If you ain't picking Charmander as your starter then I don't want to be friends
I uninstalled Wolfenstein instead of making that f*caked up decision. So I guess there is a third option after all Falcon xD
What? Really? You missed out on a great game then.
Honestly the choice with Markus was easy for me as I like Carl as a character and with Kara I love the interaction between Alice and Todd if he survives but I am unsure if it changes if you do a violent playthrough with Markus
I think the first Infamous in which you have to either save your GF or a bunch of Doctors is kind of a tougher choice.
I have trouble deciding between a boy and girl character
I love choice based games! LOBE THEM!! So I really appreciate this video! Thank you!💙🙏
loBe? Like, brain lobe?
Amazing Content as always 😎👌 but I was surprised to see that Deus Ex wasn't on the list like human revolution or something there are some hard hard choices in the franchise
Falcon saying canine instead of kaine is horrible
6:55 exactly there are no good guys in CoD Cold War, only bad guys.
Imagine if siblings or a couple or something were both playing through Nier and one of them deleted all of the save files before the other person could finish the game 😬
😅
Freaking remaster the first two inFamous already damn it. I wanna play them again with a better look and feel.
If remakes and remasters are all the gaming industry can rely on nowadays, then InFamous 1+2 should absolutely be in the conversation for a refresh
Let's not forget to mention on Wolfenstein: The New Order's Final Boss is based on this decision as well.
Cringe when you said Kaiden's name incorrectly
I hated the Infamous 2 choice because I wanted to side with the character I spent the whole game working with and then it made them my enemy. It wasn't satisfying for me at all
Great video ! Could you do a top 10 of the hardest decision in the Witcher 3 ? Or in another rpg, it would be great !
Considering I didn't even know there were valt dwellers still in 34 it's always been a easy choice 🤦
Not sure if you know but there is a third option in Witcher 3. I will not go into details but it is still possible to save both children and Baron's wife.
KOTOR. Go Sith or stay with the Jedi.
Although it is not a choice that player can make, but the moment when Big Boss pulls the trigger, the player can feel his pain.
Naked Snake is not Big Boss yet because The Boss has not been surpassed
Almost 18 years later still cannot force myself to pull the trigger
Gameranx dropping another banger of a list
Pokemon: chose fire type cause early game you don't find fire type Pokemon. I've always choose fire
I have never recovered from killing Zeke in Infamous 2
The developers for infamous actually created second son off of the majority choice of what people picked in infamous 2. So if people had picked the evil option over the good option, second son wouldn’t even have been a thing
You could make a full list just from Detroit : Become Human. Such an incredible game.
in dragon age you have a third option which is having the king uncle turn warden deliver the final blow
The choice in Life is Strange was pretty easy. A town vs a selfish person who is being a bad friend isn't a hard choice. Haven't heard anyone saying it is a hard choice, heck it is more a hard choice NOT saving the town.
In the remake of Nier, If you save Kaine, your saves aren't actually deleted. Not really. You have to play the game again as Kaine to get the true ending and get everything back.
Infamous the first choice can change the whole story
gameranx you rock my bro
You too
I had the most difficulty choosing my ending in Far Cry 5. Two totally different endings, and the "right" ending explains New Dawn's whole environment
You missed one entirely, just like FC4 there's a third ending that is linked to how you act at the beginning of the game.
It was never difficult, I chose to chase down Killbane... Twice
Brooo these notifs go crazy
if i am remembering correctly, the devs of infamous had stated because the majority of people had picked the good ending on the first play through, that it offically killed off cole and had we all gone with the evil ending we would have gotten a infamous 3 with cole as the main character. which is just sad lol
I'm glad you brought up Detroit. But I must disagree with your pick here... For me the Chloe choice was absolutely the hardest thing I've ever done. On my first playthrough I cried when I picked her to die
The host obviously did not play Nier, since he can't properly pronounce KAINE. Perhaps watching a video of the game for next time could help.
Great list but saving "Kay-nie"?? God that pronounciation killed me lmao
Time to replay infamous 2 again
👌🏼
Thumbnail- infamous 2
Man that was Long time ago
Phone-2011
Yup
For me it was Hawke or Stroud in DAI. On one hand you are invested in hawke but on the other grey wardens are badass and you don’t know how the decision will affect dragon age dreadwolf
Metal Gear Solid 1 you have to choose to fight through a torture scene or submit. Depending on the choice changes the ending scene. If you submit the girl dies if you fight through, the girl survives.
I really enjoyed the video, but the gameranx crew should chip in for a thesaurus. How many times do you need to say Basically? Small gripe I know and yet not repeating the same words or phrase every time one wishes to simplify, get to the bottom, or sum up an idea... a larger vocabulary helps get the point across.
Thanks for your feedback
honestly... i think dying light 2 had the most stressful choices ever. there was so many-
Yes Charmander, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle are definitely the hardest choices... they all evolve into something badass. Also, being that Gen 1 was in my elementary school days those were the days I was obsessed and since then I suppose that all the pokemon I choose if I were to get back into the games would be based on looks.
That dragon age ending sound pretty easy to me. I'm sure many chosed to create an anti-christ of the game instead of sacrificing someone
