Okay, so an RP situation like this --
Two guys, unarmed. One guy with a semiauto rifle. The players agree beforehand that the two unarmed guys are going to attack the armed one, and all three of them are going to die. Halfway through the scene, while the two unarmed guys are rushing/attacking the armed one and the armed one is firing at one of them, the player of the armed one changes her mind and decides that she doesn't want him to die. Unfortunately, the only possible logical outcome of this then is that the two unarmed characters die (because they aren't the type to stop until they die) and the armed one walks away somehow (because he can't die), which ends up happening regardless of plausibility.
So --
Is that godmoding? It's kind of a tricky question -- I get that players have the right to decide whether they want their characters to get hurt/die or not. But do they have the right to decide that after putting their character in a deadly situation? Especially one where other characters are pitting their lives against his?
As a player of one of the two dead characters, I'm not sure how to feel about this. I didn't mind my character dying -- I wanted my character to die. But -- the scenario we'd agreed upon was all three of them dying at once, not my character getting wasted and having one walk away (which I still think is physically/logistically impossible, considering the scenario but what can you do :|). And the bounds of IC kind of restricted him TO dying once he got involved in the plot, because -- ICly, he's not the type to cut and run and leave the other guy in danger/fighting alone. So it was either die in a way that I didn't agree to, or go OOC. I chose the death because IC is more important to me but I can't help feeling sort of -- cheated. And frustrated, because that's not a decision I wanted to have to make.
What do you do in a situation like this?
