There is no essay about different "types", the article is simply divided in section about different arts [[Special:Contributions/5.170.9.211|5.170.9.211]] ([[User talk:5.170.9.211|talk]]) 22:57, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

Revision as of 22:57, 29 January 2017

Additional Movies

I feel like Mr. Nobody should be added, probably the best interpretation of the genre in my opinion due to its scope and high branching factor. After the Dark is also a good thought experiment movie that touches on the same themes in a way. There should really be a comprehensive list of all these movies as I find it to be a particularly beneficial type of movie that helps understanding our interaction with metaphysical probability space.

My question is whether or not some time travel movies should be included.. I feel like in certain instances it's possible to include them, but in others it doesn't make sense. I've been wondering about The Butterfly Effect for instance. I think it should be included. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.16.176.246 (talk) 17:12, 24 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just wanted to add I found this link with some interesting movies on the list that I am probably going to explore to further understand this genre of fiction.

Schrödinger's Cat Movies The term is likely not an effective term for the genre but it works for now. I also notice that they are specifically focused on the physics and not time travel movies, which I can agree with, but whether to include other movies such as "After the Dark" where the projected realities are thought experiments and so the actual timeline or alternate reality is never actually breached, but has the same elements is another important consideration. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.16.176.246 (talk) 17:19, 24 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled

What about metroid?

Hey, where's vampire the masquarade bloodlines? I never played it or I'd write in the endings, but that deserves to be on here.

Someone needs to add in Bioshock. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.202.129.235 (talk) 02:42, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Otacon does not die in the ending of Metal Gear Solid. The Colonel calls off the nuculer strike and Snake asks for someone to bring Octacon in. This makes it the cannon ending. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.7.44.212 (talk) 14:12, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What about Tetris?

It ended many ways, depending how You lost last line (and built those previous). It has close to infinite count of endings.

What about Pikmin?

Pikmin 1 has 3 endings, the best one happens when you get all 30 ship parts, the neutral ending is when you at least get the 25 mandatory ship parts, and the bad ending is when you don't get the 25 mandatory ones Olimar attempts the leave on the 30th day which is when his life-support system fails, because oxygen is poisonous to him, and his ship just falls back down, and a few pikmin bring him to an onion, and he's ejected as a pikmin seed. --67.70.94.99 (talk) 21:18, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I saw True Crime: Streets of LA was on there, but what about True Crime: New York City?

In True Crime: New York City, there are 2 possible endings.

In the Bad ending, Navarro escapes the grip of the officers leading him away, grabs a gun, and kills Whitting. He then boards a subway train, with Reed in pursuit. Ultimately, Reed throws Navarro off the train, killing him. Later, while Reed is sitting alone in the train station, Higgins sits next to him. Higgins had faked his own death and framed Navarro to escape being arrested by Whitting. Higgins hands Reed a bag of cash and asks him to join him in Mexico. Reed, however, is angry at having been used, so he kills Higgins.

In the Good ending, Navarro is taken away without incident. Later, Reed is approached by Higgins with the same offer of comfortable living in Mexico as in the bad ending, but Reed simply refuses. Higgins then threatens to expose Reed's past, but Reed responds that he would pay for his crimes with honor, and orders Higgins to come quietly. Higgins run onto a subway train, with Reed in pursuit. Ultimately, Higgins is killed when the train derails. Back at the train station, Whitting promises to talk to the DA about Reed's father as thanks for catching the mole. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.92.202.34 (talk) 07:58, 21 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Literature: The Story Of O

Would mentioning The Story Of O[1] [2] be useful, here … ? It’s — arguably — got an alternate ending.

Interactive narrative → Types of fiction with multiple endings – This article was originally named Types of fiction with multiple endings, and the subject was, naturally, types of fiction with multiple endings. It had some sourcing issues, as pages of this type often do. The page was moved on 30 January to its current location (Interactive narrative) and over the next several days was turned into an article about (according to the lede) "a form of fiction in which users are able to make choices that guide the outcomes". But really, it's still a list of media with multiple endings, most of them having nothing to do with users guiding the outcomes, plus some neologisms and examples all referenced to primary sources. In short, the article was shoehorned into a tangential subject and the bulk of its content has little to do with its new subject. Woodroar (talk) 01:14, 18 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

 Done. I tried to incorporate as many of the subsequent changes as possible. Woodroar (talk) 21:55, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
