EARLY ACCESS - What's So Difficult About Alternate Endings?
🕑 Added 2022-06-01 05:30:47 +0000 UTCSorry this one's up so late, friends! I'll go into it more in the Architect Address in a few days!
Videogames are unique for a lot of reasons, but what makes them stand out amongst every other form of media is the simple fact that they can end in a variety of ways. From choosing who lives and who dies, the fate of the world, to simply what colour a big pretty ending explosion is - alternate endings are one of the great videogaming ideas...
So why are they so often kind of rubbish?
The Architect has scouted multiple timelines, delved into the farthest reaches of the universe and poked around in the still-smoking craters left by controversial videogames to figure out the answer - games with multiple endings are great, but not for the reasons we think... and it's this misconception that's dragging down a whole load of otherwise great games.
