my favorite video game move is for the game to put an axe in your hand and make it so you can interact with this world solely via axe murder and then look at you and go "wow man that's really fucked up that you would murder everyone with an axe 
"

Replying to @dongwon @ryandroyd
at least Bioshock is like "isn't it fucked up that we made you do this stuff? get revenge by killing this character who serves as an avatar of the game's narrative force" instead of just "you are bad" It ain't perfect but it's wild that AAA has regressed instead of progressing

They also didn't even actually make you do anything that bad You get a choice whether to sacrifice the Little Sisters, everyone else in the game is a raving evil asshole who needs killing, and the big horrifying reveal scene where you kill Ryan is him choosing to kill himself

Replying to @arthur_affect @nnoouuvv and
It's also like... super obvious that sacrificing the sisters is a choice and probably the "wrong" one.

Yeah and the "penalty" for saving them is pretty meaningless gameplay-wise
