Topic will obviously have random spoilers from random games.

But stories were if you want, instead of saving the world/your friends you have the option to just leave because shit got too real.


Both Clocktower and Prey spring to mind,

I dunno why because these are pretty much always just game overs really but I like the option

A lot of the alternate endings in Nier Automata are like this. There's several battles that if you just walk away from you'll find a secret 'fuck it' ending like you're talking about.

Is this the same as losing in the intro with no save?

The Bard's Tale (the reboot, not the original games)

You get three options right at the end, one of which is to say "fuck this. I'm out. bye."

It's not actually a game over, but it's not a particularly good ending, either.

Jade Empire sort of has this too.

Not really "going home" but when you get to the final boss he does the whole "Can't you see I need to take over the world to save it!" speech and you have the option of just going "Fair enough" and letting him take over.

Even he is surprised if you do.

I loved that little touch, it was so irrelevant but fun.

It's not really a choice of just giving up. It's just sitting still for a while when kidnapped.

You never have the option to just leave the dumb country and go back to America to eat KFC and watch the Superbowl.

There's that and a whole bunch of other ones too. The game has an ending for every letter of the alphabet. Only like 4 or 5 of them are serious endings.

Devil Survivor has one kind of like that.

Instead of seeking your destiny as of of the kings of Bel, go with Yuzu's request to to run away from the lockdown and go home. It doesn't go well, but you can make it better if you do a request just right.

To be fair you can choose to break out earlier with Honda too but that instantly ends everything.

If you tell Banon no 3 times on Final Fantasy 6 when he asks Terra to save the world, you get a Genji Glove...

but the game certainly doesn't end.

Of course! One of my favorite games ever. There are plenty that say the second game (there is no story connection btw) is better though. I prefer the first and it goes on sale on the eshop a lot.

Arkham City.

Shadowrun: Dragonfall & Shadowrun Hong Kong.

Breath of Fire IV (if you made the wrong choices at the end)

Just want to go into detail.

Arkham City:
Late game when you play as Catwoman because Batman got pinned by some rubble, you will be given a choice to help Batman or just walk away with the loot. Choose the latter and Arkham City gets nuked lol.

Both Shadowrun games:
Before the final battle, you can choose to side with the villain. You will have to fight your teammates first to get the ending. In Dragonfall, you can work with the villain to kill all the dragons, thereby dooming humanity to fall to creatures worse than dragons. In Hong Kong, you can side with an evil god for 14 years of good fortune, but dooming a section of Hong Kong to slavery.

Breath of Fire IV:
If you doubt yourself at the end, you get absorbed into the villain's body and kill all your friends.

Oh. This is not really the same thing, but Mechwarrior 1 has a limited time in which you can beat it. If you exceed that time limit, the game doesn't notify you that it is now unwinnable, but you can keep playing.

So I guess that's kind of like a "whatever I do what I want" option.
