10 Hardest Moral Choices In Recent Video Games

Most of the choices you make in ZA/UM's Disco Elysium could be described this way. Set in an impoverished city, you're a detective investigating the apparent lynching of a man.

Investigating the crime scene, you'll immediately notice a young boy throwing rocks at the body. This is Cuno, an obnoxious child who wants to make your life as difficult as possible. Even if you'd never strike a child - not even in a game - you'll probably make an exception for Cuno. This kid sucks.

But he's a witness and if you want to get information out of him, you'll have to earn his respect. The final step to doing so is by stealing a kilo of speed from his abusive father so he can sell it himself.

Entering Cuno's home, you see the squalor he lives in. You even find his father on his deathbed, succumbing to illness caused by decades of heavy drinking.

Suddenly this child's spiteful bluster makes a lot of sense. So what do you do?

It goes without saying that you probably shouldn't give a child hard drugs. However, selling them is his only way to remain fed and sheltered. How does your morality change under the harsh, fluorescent light of real life?
