ARE YOU A MORALLY DRIVEN GAMER?!

We often hear how our life is portrayed by 
our decisions and how these can define it. Everything is full of little choices we make
throughout the day without even noticing. 
We now see how some video games tend
to use decision-making as a mechanic that may or may not change the outcome of 
the story. Those decisions can drive

a different approach, and our mood can play 
a big role. All our choices have meaning. 
This will unavoidably reflect in the ending 
of the game. Join us to discover how our emotions can affect the behavior, actions
and memories of our character, perhaps  changing how we perceive certain things.

There are different types of endings. It can be a good ending, where the hero or main character saves the day. Or a bad ending, where our character dies and never gets 
to the goal. Or wild endings that we were not expecting at all. 

Whether we like it or not, no matter which ending we get, we will get the feeling that we were part of discovering how the story ends because of every decision that led 
us to that particular outcome.

How often do we feel like we are in control of our emotions? The answer is not always something positive. In real life, we decide little things in the blink of an eye, and our feelings usually play a role in it.

The same thing happens whenever we play these games. We find ourselves choosing between the right thing to do versus the easy thing to do. One of the biggest titles that had gamers feeling morally trapped
was 2012’s The Walking Dead. In here we are in the middle of a zombie apocalypse

world where every little decision will impact what certain characters will do in the future, and this can drastically affect how the story unfolds. We will even get a prompt saying:
“character will remember this.”

We also have life-threatening situations like in Detroit: Become Human, where we start the game with puzzling how to save a child who is held hostage, and we must decide whether to risk our own life in a rescue
attempt or to keep ourselves safe while trying to reason with only our words.

Or perhaps we are in a relationship conflict, like in Life is Strange, where at some point we will need to decide whether we support our best friend’s radical views or we try to guide them through a safer path.

For better or for worse, these decisions not only shape our protagonist but also shape how other characters see us. This directly impacts the relationships we build and how our character’s personality develops.

We understand free will as the ability to make our choices independently, without being influenced by external sources. Detroit: Become Human explores this topic from an artificial intelligence perspective. In the year 2038, androids are being treated as personal property. The story follows Connor, Kara, and Markus.

Three androids that gain emotions and get labeled as “deviants.” During the gameplay, we have high-tension moments where our decisions will be key, and each of them can lead to multiple scenarios, where the fight for freedom is our main purpose. Every choice we make will shape the fate of both humanity and androids.

The game received several recognitions for its stunning graphics and motion capture style, and the community loved it for its emotional storytelling and character development. The game also has a high level of replayability, where multiple consequence branches are revealed as the story unfolds.
