Line 363:
* Although this is put in a rather subtle way, in ''[[BlazBlue]]'' this occurs to {{spoiler|Litchi Faye-Ling. Hazama invites her to join the NOL because he has the cure for herself and Arakune. Her condition is worsening and if left be, she'll be at best a burden to Orient Town, at worst turn into the next Arakune and eat her former friends. Not to mention that if she just refused, there will be a big chance that Hazama will dispose the cure and her only lead for salvation lost. Basically it boils down to either "Go betray those who expect you to be a good person and join [[The Dark Side]]" or "Slowly wither and die, or if [[Sarcasm Mode|lucky]], turn into a monster that eats everyone who looks up to you." There's just no [[Take a Third Option|third option]] for her.}}
* Deconstructed in one part of ''[[South Park|South Park: The Stick of Truth]]'' where you have to choose whether to side with Cartman or Kyle. This is a Sadistic Choice because, as any fan of the cartoon can tell you, [[Morton's Fork| they're ''both'' complete jerks.]] It doesn't really matter either in the long run, because after fighting and defeating the one you don't choose to side with, both sides become allies against the actual villain.
* In the 2014 adaptation of ''[[Game of Thrones]]'' video game, there are a ''lot'' of these, but the worst comes at the end with Mira. You either have to, A) let her marry Lord Morginn (as in, the man she utterly and rightfully ''despises'' for a variety of reasons) and let Tom be executed, or B) let Mira be executed in his place. What? This is ''[[Game of Thrones]]'', you expected a happy ending?
