Add a "refuse" button that pops up a short text box detailing the consequences. The End, credits roll. Problem solved, now they can all go explain to everyone on the forums why this is the best ending

Kinda reminds me of far cry 5 Where you can finish the game in 5 minutes by not arresting the preacher and just afking

They also had that in Fc4. If you don’t run away, eventually the dictator comes back and takes you to spread your mother’s ashes, and later takes your on a helicopter tour to shoot guns and stuff. Credits roll.

Man I'm still salty about the real ending, I think the 5 min ending might be preferable (not really, again, just salty).

Isn't the whole point of the series to highlight the way games give you only an illusion of freedom and are instead railroading you all the time? That option would go against the whole philosophy of the game.
