Do we even have a significant amount of people who care about more than 2-3 endings?
I'd imagine people who are really into "Choices Matter" and some people who are really into story would.
I play !visualnovels@ani.social and half the fun is seeing what decisions lead to different outcomes. And getting different outcomes for different choices, especially if they are big choices, makes me feel like my choices matter and impact the world, as opposed to if all these supposedly important choices can only ever get me 2 or 3 different endings.
Although I do share your question about how popular my opinion is with other gamers.
Big appreciation for Undertale, which has 3 major endings but hundreds of variations for each. It's nice to have the game acknowledge what you did and give you resolution.
