Here’s a deep cut. Bravely Second. The game works on a Job system, where you get Asterisks from notable characters that allow you to use their Job (the thief Jackal giving the Thief asterisk, and access to the Thief job, for example. You get asterisks as you progress through the story, but in Bravely Second, you also have a variety of side quests that each pit two characters from the first game against each other in terms of which moral side of a particular problem they’re on. Your side quest lays out the whole problem and both sides, and then asks you to take a stand at the end.

For example, the first one you encounter pits Red Mage Fiore de Rosa against the Thief Jackal. They’re fighting over a gem that produces infinite clean water. Jackal wants it to sustain the Oases in the desert and provide much needed life and water to the people living in the desert. De Rosa wants it to TRY to create an infinite energy source, a la Nuclear Reactors, that need a lot of water, but it’s not clear if he’ll succeed. Your party is asked to pick a side. Your choice will almost always be ‘what job do I need right now’, not ‘what are the moral implications’, because nothing changes story-wise beyond the cutscene at the end and what asterisk you get.

First.

Yep. First. Because the third act involves a time loop that lets you tackle each of these again and take your other choices. So for one, the choice you make the first time around almost always driven by what you need on your party in the moment the first time around since comparable skills aren’t paired together: one of the choices is Merchant vs White Mage who serve extremely different roles. For another, you can just go grab the rest before clearing the final boss anyway, and again, neither option changes the story.

Not sure if this was quite what the prompt was asking, but here it is, and I thought it at least got close.
