Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

When you see [Everyone Hated That] pop up after your last choice, and you panic and try to load a previous save, but the game remembers what you already did.
hmm, that would be an interesting feature for a RPG game. Are there any games that have that feature? Like some anti savescumming?
Pathologic 2. When you die it applies the consequences to all of your saves all you can't go back and change it
Oh, that's a good point, I didn't think of it this way. I felt that Pathologic 2 handled it pretty well, because the first time I died, I was confused at how it framed the consequences (instead of a straightforward "you died! Load earlier save?", you get a conversation with an NPC that explains some of the consequences, albeit somewhat obtusely). The actual consequences of death felt surprisingly forgiving, given all I've heard about Pathologic (especially the first few deaths).
The original animal crossing had something like that. If you turned off the console without saving, a mole named Resetti or something like that would rant at you about how you aren't supposed to do that. The rant would get longer the more times you turned off the console without saving.
DUHduh dun dun DUN
Undertale had this. It allowed you to reload the older save and undo what you did, but it kept a second, hidden save file that you couldn't easily erase.
That would make an awesome Deadpool game LOL
If executed well, the shock of a moment like that would be sublime.
I understand that that annoying Undertale game did this.
