Painful decisions in games you repeat every time?

[StaceyPowers]

What’s a decision point in a video game where you always make the same choice, even though that choice is painful?

Skipping cutscenes when I’m playing for the first time. I like to immerse myself in the story of every new game, not to rush it. So whenever I mistaken press skip I always regret it.

I've so many players face difficult in choices of games and that can lead to emotional investment and memorable moments as well.

For me, it's the ending of Mass Effect 3. On this game, I'm fond of sacrificing myself to save the galaxy, even though I know that it's heartbreaking to say goodbye to my beloved characters.

I always save the sidekick or companion, even when it costs something huge. It’s tough, but loyalty matters.

You are right! My emotional investment in the character or story is what drives my decision. It's more intense when the storyline is engaging.

Well, emotional investment is key here. I don't really know why those companions often feel like family. I get so engaged that I find myself right in the game.

Standing by loyalty is so admirable. Some games, like The Walking Dead or Mass Effect, have made me make some tough choices.
