    I think you'll find running towards the nuke is the best possible outcome in fallout 4. Why? Here's just some of the reasons:
    - You don't see your partner get shot and your child kidnapped
    - You don't see your dumb child again
    - You never meet a deathclaw, let alone an alpha

    Far Cry 4's "tutorial fail" was a happier ending too. Pagan Min comes back, you finish the crab rangoon, scatter your daughter's ashes and then shoot guns together. Ubisoft is basically telling us that the protagonists in their games fuck things up more than they fix them.

  • @isaacgleeth3609

    Honestly, the "do nothing" Far Cry 5 ending is the ending that makes logical sense.
    As the sheriff said, they would be signing their death certificates if they arrested Joseph Seed there. It was just 1 US Marshall, 1 local sheriff, and 1 Rookie--3 people against a cult that would make the Branch Davidians seem like cavemen, by comparison.
    The wise move would be leave, come back with the National Guard, and then arrest him. Shit would likely still go down, but Joseph Seed would be in custody.

    In the TRPG Phantom Brave, enemies and objects on each map will sometimes provide passive buffs to other enemies/objects. The game teaches you this mechanic with a tutorial map containing a basic squirrel enemy receiving an invincibility buff from a nearby tree and explaining that you'll need to attack and destroy the tree before you can defeat the squirrel.
    My sister skipped over that explanation and eventually gave up on the game entirely because the "demon squirrel" was preventing her from getting past the tutorial.

    Outer Wilds, dying from a fall or jumping into the geyser to drown before you got the launch codes.
    Spoiler of first hour or so below the fold:
    After getting your launch codes and trying to leave the observatory you will trigger the reason you wake up again after dying, dying before then thus leads to a game over and then credits roll. Whereas after this event happens you wake up in the starting location instead when you die.

    Reminds me of Wing Commander 2 where iirc, you can open fire on Caernarvon Station on the first mission. The station starts firing flak cannons, which can do a good job of shooting you down if you get too close, and of course you can't dock, so it makes the mission unwinnable. Unfortunately, the station was also less frustrating to shoot at than small quick enemy fighters, so...
