Games that have you make choices

[Muzzles56]

Out of curiosity, which of these games suggested are linear? I feel like these would appeal to me more

[Ad Bot]

[Tomcat]

The Suffering. It's an action horror game where chooses are interpolated throughout the game. It's linear as far as I can tell. It's also free.

fire emblem
in classic mode
yeah, makes you think.

[Igloos]

Subrosa for sure.

Look into the visual novel genre maybe? though it's mostly text and anime... I dunno. Depends on if you're into that kinda thing I guess.

The Mass Effect series of games gave you a number of decisions throughout that varied what would happen throughout the whole series.
And they're quality games anyway.


The Fable series had some alright-ish choices for you to make, and I've always enjoyed them.
I think Fable 2 seemed to have the decisions give the biggest changes. But I suppose Fable 3 probably offered more that had more obvious/immediate consequences.

There are a couple of old Star Wars games that give some decision, atleast to the extent that you can change to good/bad.
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is one of those. But it's quite old, so the game mechanics/look can be off-putting these days.


And you might like Fallout 3/Fallout New Vegas for choices. New Vegas definitely gives more choices with a bigger affect on the ending of the game.

I can't remember the name but their was a space combat game for the PS1 and some missions would change the entire plot (completely different story line) depending on whether you won or lost them. It was a really neat concept but I've never seen it used in any other games.

Fable 3 is alright, actually.
I think the problems many people had was that it made some choices that seemed very "non-Fable", and Peter Molyneux (Head of Lionhead at the time) had maybe a bit too much influence in making the game.
There were a few things that upset people, but the game was still greatly enjoyable.

I think it suffered in one way due to similar reasons as Mass Effect 3. The absolute final decision of the game turned out to be a bit lame.
ME3's decision didn't really pay attention to the many decisions made throughout the 3 games.
Fable 3's decision was a bit of an awkward one in terms of realism, in that it made you make absolutely ultimate never-changing decisions that would make people love or hate you forever. Yet the decisions were in turn actually rather tame and in any realistic world wouldn't have been that severe, considering the circumstances at the time.

Spec Ops the Line is on sale now. Does this game include making decisions?

The game's campaign mode features 18 levels. Scattered among the levels are morality sections. Unlike previous games such as Mass Effect or inFAMOUS, the morality sections are not game-pausing choices on a menu. They flow naturally, allowing for (and forcing) the player to make split-second decisions.

yes. i saw some gameplay, looked fun enough. i havent played it myself, though.

[Unwritten Calender]

Subrosa for sure.
