Hardest decisions/decisions you regretted in video games?

Before discovering the workaround, I always hated the Fallout 3 mission arc where you either choose to kill a bunch of ghouls or let them slaughter a bunch of rich assholes at a place called Tenpenny Tower persecuting them because either way, you either help out a total POS named Roy kill some decent people alongside some assholes, or you do kill the guy, but have to kill a bunch of otherwise decent non-feral ghouls.

That mission sucks because either way, some decent people have to die.

I only later discovered the loophole that made it more bearable:

Do things so the ghouls can move into Tenpenny Tower, but kill Roy before he enters to prevent the slaughter, eat the temporary karma hit, and otherwise prevent him from mass murdering everyone and just do some nice things to regain your karma minus the bad taste in your mouth if you just let Roy kill everyone.

In recent memory it was probably when I accidentally killed Toriel in Undertale and chose to soldier on through the rest of the game.

Feels were had. Lots of them.

Basically, any MMO where I allocated stat distribution without looking at a guide first. My guesses are usually horrifically incorrect.
 
No regrets whatsoever.
 
None, because I am an adult and realize that characters in games aren't real so killing them has no effect on me. My undertale playthrough had me fucking up those faggy little monsters and drowning their children in the sinew. I laughed my ass off during the WP part in Spec Ops and during No Russian I always go for max body count. Pixels ain't people kids.

Though this

I do get, I traded too many defensive players to pick up Andrew Luck in Madden and hamstrung my run stopping ability in my last career mode.

When I was a kid I played a BBS door game called Legend of the Red Dragon 2 that was really neat because it had graphics. There was a part where you find this injured little girl and are given a few choices. When I saw the option to kill her I chose that thinking it wouldn't actually let me do it. It did and I killed her.

I felt like a giant of shit and never played it again.
 
When I alt-tabbed in Dark Souls and I accidentally smashed Solaire in the face so I had to kill him, and choosing to continue afterwards.

Play Spec Ops: The Line on the hardest difficulty. It becomes so frustrating and so maddening, you go crazy along with the main character. I will never forget that experience but I'm fucking never doing it again.

I know that feel.

Worst part is, there was some dummied out content that actually gives you several better ways to resolve the worst parts of his story arc, the stock versions were pretty :( worthy.

Go check the Fallout 4 Nexus and look up the mods that alter the Brotherhood of Steel's questline or re-add dummied out content if you play on PC, some is even available for consoles.
