The best you can ever hope for is a least worst decision, and even then good intentions often end up having the opposite effect and the full impact of your choices is not felt for a long time including, as this sequel makes clear, into the next game.Īs well as more personal decision, taken in the style of a Telltale style adventure, you also have to make practical calls about collecting and distributing resources. Moral decision-making has become commonplace in video games today, in large part thanks to BioWare, but The Banner Saga feels very different to any of its peers. Not to mention the impact of your decisions in the previous game. But much like watching The Empire Strikes Back or The Two Towers without having seen their predecessors a lot of the context and resonance is lost. The basic plot is approachable enough that, unlike a true episodic game, you don’t need to have played the first one to understand what’s going on. The story continues on straight from the last game, even going as far as to label its start as chapter eight.
