10 Video Game Moments Where You Were Screwed Either Way

7. Telltale’s Game Of Thrones - Ramsay Bolton Being Ramsay Bolton

Telltale’s Game Of Thrones
Telltale

Whether you’ve played Telltale’s Game of Thrones, watched the show, or read the book chances are you’re pretty across the fact that Ramsay Bolton is a dick. Easily slipping into the most reprehensible characters in all of fiction, Ramsay’s portrayal in Telltale’s adventure game is pretty much exactly what you’d expect. The Bastard of Bolton rocks up to the home of Ethan Forrester, heir to his House, and begins terrorising your sister.

You’re given a choice to stand up to the violent hothead or let his actions go unchallenged but this is a perfect example of damned if you do and damned if you don’t. In classic Ramsay fashion, the scene ends with him slicing his knife through Ethan’s neck. So I guess you may as well have gone out defending your family.
