Digital Decision Making in Game Design
Making your mark through choices is key to this hybrid game style. Titles available on Xbox like The Outer Worlds or even heavily-modifiable games such as Skyrim offer branching storylines where your actions shape not just personal development but the wider game universe around you.
| Game Title | Story Branching Paths | Xbox Controller Feel Rating |
|---|---|---|
| Telltales The Wolf Among Us 1 + 2 | ★ ★ ★ | N/A (no Xbox ver) |
| OXENFREE II – ghost narrative exploration | ★ ★ ★ & some glitches | Comfort level: Medium |
| Sable – desert exploration plus soul questions | Cool atmosphere more than branching | A+ controller support |
