Is there any better example of a game that actually has choices that matter and a branching storyline?

I imagine some CRPGs do but NV is the best I've played.
>>
>>340586153
Most SJW game have all the branching you need. Try Life is Strange.
>>
Age of Decadence, arguably. That game is a fucking joy.
>>
Dragon Age Origins has a pretty good branching path, even though the result is the same.

One of the only games where I felt playing a bad guy made sense in the world.
>>
>>340588689
Origins has the standard Bioware problem of the choices rarely manifesting outside of their self-contained arc. You don't get a sense your choices make much of an impact on the world outside of the ending sequence.

What is the equivalent of FUCKING GAMESTOP in new vegas?
>>
>>340586153
am i that much of a faggot if I liked FO3 map more? I mean, I like FONV a lot more than FO3, but I dont like the "new" vegas map a lot. Id like it more if Las Vegas was still 99% blown to shit with some minor settlements in the ruins

If you don't head straight to the Stripe and clean out the casinos you are playing the game wrong.
>>
>>340590489
Then the main story wouldn't work. Entire point is that New Vegas is a jewel of the old world, representing the unattainable goals of the three primary factions.
>>
>>340588958
True, but they show up in pretty unique ways in the final quest and in Awakening iirc.
>>
>>340590748
Oh. I never played Awakening.
>>
>>340586153
Yes, it's called D&D. Literally infinite choices
>>
Each branching path is basically same shit different flag.
>>
>>340591215
What games do you think have the best branching path?
>>
>>340586153
fallout 1 and 2
planescape torment

any RPG game made in the age of game making where all the nerds played D&D

>branching storyline
it's linear and you get to choose your lane
>>
>>340591553
>Fo1
>more branching than NV
This is entirely untrue no matter how you cut it.
>>
>>340591553
Planescape doesn't branch. It's a very linear narrative that is even broken up into concise sections.
>>
>>340591667
do you have to post this fucking thing in every thread

absolutely

Nothing has reached the level of interconnectivity of Alpha Protocol yet and i am wondering if we will ever have that tier of storytelling.

Genuine autism

You're a good man anon. Alpha Protocol had so many technical flaws, but the rest was some of the best experiences last generation. I just wish that Agent game would be like AP but with the usual Rockstar polish.
>>
>>340595940
doesnt alpha protocol have the shittiest gameplay of all time?

first time player here

where do i go to get to all the sidequests? are there many of them?
>>
>>340600520

There are like 200 quests in the whole game and some can only be done if you sided with a certain faction.
