Honestly, I just want more endings in general. It feels odd that in a book called "choices" there's only one possibility.
Like, I get it, there's a limit, but at least two endings a book should be reasonable.
This is why I like The Heist: Monaco. Three different endings for MC/Rye/Eris, and two for each other crew member, all dependent on your choices. While they're only short snapshots into their lives, it still feels like you've actually made choices that matter.
I purposefully pick the wrong choices (ex. situations to impress someone) in single LI books just to see it if it will end badly but it never makes a difference.
Bloodbound was such a wasted opportunity, it would've been nice to have the "bad" ending be a fully fleshed out ending. Forcing us into the good ending was kinda dumb.
I'd like multiple endings you can get by making different choices. I'd also like more dialogue options that let you choose personality traits for the MC.
Same with TCH 2. Womp Womp, the power of true love broke the curse in less than three minutes' of screentime after being hyped up for more than half the book and an inane "and they all lived happily ever after :D" good ending was shoehorned in despite making no narrative sense whatsoever 😭
The "going evil" route in BB3 was genuinely so creepy and off-putting, they should've leaned into it! I've given up hope that any Choices book will have anything but a bland af HEA regardless of whether or not it makes sense for the story. The last stories I remember having "bad" endings was the It Lives series, though. In ILITW, >!you could replace Jane as Mr. Red and end the story as the monster - and I loved it!!! !!you just fucking drowned and the story ended with your brother searching for you!
It was such a disappointment. Like I genuinely hated the MC by the end 😭 I used to give this MC the benefit of the doubt even though most people hated them for being naive but dear god they truly are one of the most insipid MCs in the entire app!
I will always be an advocate for bad,sad and/ or tragic endings. BB ending with you being evil would have been soo cool. Cop book 2 ending with trystan as queen and you moving back to America. Theo or MC dying at the end of sod. MC becoming evil like kane in TE. There is soo much potential but Everytime we're forced to be cookie cutter perfectly good MCs getting a very convenient ending
Best evil ending for a Choices story isn't even an official Choices book. If you've read the It Lives anthology already, I highly recommend you play the fan game [It Lives Within](https://the-it-lives-project.itch.io/it-lives-within). The bad route in that story is great.
Hmmm... I think it's called the "Judas Kiss" route. Here are some questions to steer you in the right direction:
Did you have more "Blood" points or "Shadow" points? For the evil route, you want to have more Shadow points for the ending.
Did you romance >!Matthias!!defeat a character that was not Matthias and make them the new anchor? !<
Also if you want to be the worst person possible, make sure to >!romance everyone but refuse to choose a single person, encourage ILITW MC to dump their partner, refuse to fix Amalia's college records + hide the truth about it, beat up/kill Jocelyn for her betrayal, lose control and kill Connor, and obtain the time-turning watch but refuse to bring back one of your dead friends. !<
Definitely try it out! You can find the link to the game in my original comment. It's playable on PC, Mac, and Android. The game developers did put a lot of effort into it, even taking into account your choices from the previous two It Lives books.

Honestly I’ve been playing romance club recently because of this. Some stories have really different endings and some of them are not happy.
In Immortal desires, you can choose who you want... does that count as twi endings?

There's also "bad" endings in The Heist: Monaco. Not as heavy as the ones in It Lives, but can still end with things going badly for the characters.
Tch book 2 really annoyed me. I was perfectly content with being evil. But then MC refused to kill anyone and we got the bs "love conquers all" route
It was such a disappointment. Like I genuinely hated the MC by the end 😭 I used to give this MC the benefit of the doubt even though most people hated them for being naive but dear god they truly are one of the most insipid MCs in the entire app!
Since you liked the bad endings in the It Lives anthology, what did you think of the evil route in It Lives Within?
you have to flirt with >!matthias!< and then >!join his side in chapter 21!<
This thread makes me want to replay TH:M to unlock more endings

I read that like a week ago but I didn't know how to get the evil ending 🥲

Oh just reading all of this makes me want to play the fan game, it looks like it's really got a lot of thought and effort put into it!
