Early RPG's had limited system resources. I'm sure outcomes like that would have been included if game developers knew how to do it. We've come a long way since then.

It´s not about total freedom of the decisions, but to get different consequences or approaches for decisions.

Outside of RPGs You also don´t have total freedom.

But most games which are labeled RPG aren´t really RPGs, oftentimes they´re just called like that because they feature character development.

just pointing out that you cant do everything

Because game development were limited. Trust me, if they could make an SNES, or C64 game with thousands of choices and outcomes we would have seen a few titles pop up.

like for exampe in red dead redemtion 2 when you kill or rob you get a bounty but the story would change completly after your choice

Just like Arthur Morgan getting tuberculosis after being coughed on - not because he's been smoking cigarettes every day since he was 5 yrs. old.

I could chat about determinism vs free will in games but it seems a wasted effort.

well code something better then.

I'll help you start :

if (player1 != "yes") {
doNo()
}
else if {
//insert about 500 choices just for starting scene alone.
}

I am sure the Project Manager will be happy to allocate paid hours for this.
-not real code don't throw a wedgie about it.

But Rpgs seem that they want players to have their own story they have the Approach of choices but for me its just a lot text boxes a linear way that is hidden under different statements

If You have any kind of story or plot this is probably unavoidable.

If You want to play a game which doesn´t have a story, You´d need to look for "sandbox" - then You can write Your own story. RPG is about story.

Play Kenshi. Probably still the best sandbox game. But it´s not for everyone, because: no story, and no objectives.
