I honestly could not believe that the global statistics for the final choice could be anywhere even near a 50/50 split when it absolutely turned out to be exactly that. Like, what do you mean? Is this not the most clear-cut moral choice a human being could make? I was genuinely flabbergasted. How could 50% of the audience for this game make quite possibly the most obviously wrong choice you could make in a video game?

Thinking back on it, though, I realize people probably just went back and selected the other option so that they could see both endings. In fact, this is probably the best example of how much of a farce "moral choices" in video games are in general. I realize now that many people don't think of moral choices in video games as genuine moral conundrums or as honest thought exercises for what you would actually do in a morally complex situation, but merely as a later option that you'll get to in a second or third playthrough. But at the time when I first saw those stats, I was under the impression that people were genuinely making what they thought was "the right choice," which pretty much made me completely lose hope for humanity, so props to the game for making me feel that I suppose.
