So I have been playing through Kingdom Hearts for the first time since I was 10, and I have discovered one of the biggest dick moves I've seen in a while in a videogame from a babyface.
When Sora is about to fight Hercules, he tells Donald and Goofy that he will be going alone for this battle.
After beating him, in the very next cutscene, he goes on this big speech about how his friends are his power and nothing can stop them together and blah blah blah.
So, they are his power even though he tells them outright before the fight that he doesn't need them? And I thought the plot didn't get complicated until the second game.

Wasn't it decided at that point by everyone that Hercules and Sora were going to be fighting one on one? I'm pretty sure Donald and Goofy understood where he was coming from and were more than willing to give him the moral support during it.
Sora is my dude, he doesn't have one dickish bone in his body. That's how you design an appealing game protagonist.

I mean Herc really wasn't going balls out either. Only reason Sora became so strong was his connection to his friends so in part they are the reason he was able to defeat Herc.

Dishonored has some memorable player descisions that rank up with the most evil shit I've ever seen and the crazy thing about it is they're all from the less bloodthirsty "Low Chaos" path. In every assassination mission there's a less obvious "non-lethal" option that takes the targets out of the game without killing them. Even if you're on a Low Chaos run, you basically never ever need to take them unless you're commited to kill absolotely noone. That sounds like a good goal in theory, but in practice you're pretty much always condemning the targets to a fate worse than death. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}
The head of the church can be branded a heretic (by knocking him unconscious, strapping his body to a chair and branding his face with a ritual mark) which causes him to get banished from the city and forces him to be a homeless vagrant.
You can bribe a gang of thugs to kidnap a pair of noblemen, disfigure them unrecognizable and sell them as slaves to work in their family's own mines.
And finally instead of killing the mistress of your arch-enemy, you can knock her out and hand her over to her secret admirer, who promises to take her to safety but the Devil (by the way in this game the Devil gives you superpowers and chats with you about your choices from time to time) pretty much confirms he's gonna take her to lock her up in some country mansion where she can never escape from and probably abuses and rapes her.
So, murder no-no, ruining people's lives in the most monstrous ways possible gets you an achievement. |
