* ''[[Chrono Cross]]'', with its [[Loads and Loads of Characters]], has a few examples: Early in the game there are three ways to sneak into Viper Manor, each of which nets you a different party member. Immediately afterwards, you can acquire one of two groups of party members depending on whether you choose to save Kid or not. However, through the use of [[New Game+]], it was possible to get everyone on the team at once.
* In ''[[Dragon Age|Dragon Age: Origins]]'', Alistair will leave your party if you spare and recruit {{spoiler|Teyrn Loghain.}}
** Siblings Bethany and Carver are mutually exclusive at the beginning of ''[[Dragon Age II]]'', and one will be shot down by [[SchrodingerSchrödinger's Gun]]. At the end, {{spoiler|Anders and Sebastian become mutually exclusive. If you refuse to kill Anders, Sebastian will not only leave the party, but promise to raise an army against Kirkwall.}}
* ''[[Knights of the Old Republic II]]:''
** PC gender determines availability of the Handmaiden or the Disciple.

* In ''[[Dungeons and& Dragons]]'', [[Lovecraft Lite|Binders]] can't bind [[Summon Magic|Amon]] and Leraje at the same time for unknown reasons.

Line 56:
*** Also in ''Blazing Blade'', certain actions you take in the chapter "Pale Flower of Darkness" determine whether Harken or Karel will appear.
** In ''Path of Radiance'', there is a [[Duel Boss]] against {{spoiler|The Black Knight}}. If you fail to win but survive for five turns, Ena joins the party. If you beat the boss, Nasir joins instead. Then, during the final level, you are given the option to recruit between one of three powerful new characters. However, once you've picked one, the other two are unavailable for the rest of the game.
** In ''Shadow Dragon'', doing the sidequest to recruit Nagi both requires Tiki to have died earlier in the game and also prevents Gotoh from joining the party. (and while Elice can bring Tiki [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]], it's impossible to recruit Gotoh no matter what you do.)
* ''[[Jagged Alliance]]:'' Some mercs will refuse to work with others, either turning down your offer on the ground that you have their personal enemy or leaving the party. Though this feeling is not always mutual, so hiring people in right order you can sometimes hire both of them.
** In the first game, failing to listen to the complaints of your mercs can have terrible consequences: Fidel does not like working with Hurl, for example, and failing to fire one or the other will result in Hurl disappearing in the middle of the night (the implication is that Fidel killed him), and you'll lose all Hurl's equipment.
