Golden Path: Difference between revisions

Simply put, the '''Golden Path''' is the ideal path through a [[Video Game]] -- usually but not always an [[RPG]] and frequently a [[Wide Open Sandbox]] -- that yields the best results for the player. This can be any combination of plot elements, setting details, encounters, loot or even character survival which add up to a quantifiable "best" course to take. Where other routes may explain a specific aspect of the story, the [[Golden Path]] will usually includes details or explanations lacking in them, like [[Fire Emblem Fates|introducing a long-forgotten kingdom]]. The Golden Path may also avoid otherwise "inevitable" events which can have a negative impact on the character or party, for example [[Take A Third Option|sparing two of the playable characters]] in ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]''. And in games with [[Multiple Endings]], the Golden Path usually leads to the [[Golden Ending]].
