    Pretty interesting.

    I like in a video game seeing character development like in a movie except that instead, you can to influence how you change.

    As Yahtzee said, if it's just a choice between God or Satan, then it's not a game of moral choices.

    There's some mysterious water sitting in glass pail right in front of you...

    A.) Drink the mysterious water in risk of dying, but gain 30+ STR.
    B.) Leave it alone.

    *rolls dice...a six comes up*

    Well, I guess its my lucky day

    *takes a zip and instantly dies* FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU


    Well, it depends the genre of game
    annnnnnd if it has multiple endings according to the choices

    Though I love some reactions to some choices, wolfie is right and most games go for it as a filler. (sadly)

    Depends how deep the moral choices you make really are.

    I don't really care for choice. I like games that are more like a movie experience.

    Although it usually depends on the genre too.
