You’re not just making dialogue choices in Dispatch — you’re architecting relationships, defining leadership styles, and deciding whether former villains can truly become heroes. Every decision ripples through the Superhero Dispatch Network, altering team morale, office politics, and story outcomes in ways that feel deeply personal.
This definitive guide breaks down Dispatch’s branching choice system—complete with episode-by-episode choice tracking—so you can master every relationship, alliance, and reputation path across all eight episodes.
⚙️ Understanding Dispatch’s Choice Philosophy
Dispatch uses a two-tiered decision structure to give every action tangible impact.Macro Consequences: Major Story Branches
These are the big moments that define Robert’s moral and leadership arc. Example:
-
“Let Him Drop” vs “Pull Him Back” (Episode 1 Balcony Scene) — permanently alters dialogue tone and later episode callbacks.
Micro Consequences: Relationship Builders
Smaller decisions—like how you respond in interviews or offhand conversations—shape your reputation and interpersonal trust.
These don’t drastically change story direction but determine who supports or resents you later.

💬 Mastering Relationship Building Through “Will Remember That” Moments
The “X will remember that” feature isn’t just window dressing—it’s Dispatch’s invisible trust algorithm at work.
-
Character-Specific Reactions: Some characters reward empathy, others value results.
-
Consistency Builds Trust: Flip-flopping between ideals and pragmatism weakens relationships.
-
Office Politics = Gameplay: Reputation and cooperation determine mission success rates and narrative tone.
🧠 Advanced Strategy: Playing Beyond Good or Evil
1. Embrace Imperfection
Some of the best storylines emerge from making tough calls. Not every decision has a “right” answer—sometimes it’s about who you’re willing to disappoint.
2. The Three-Playthrough Approach
-
Idealist Run: Follow moral instincts.
-
Pragmatist Run: Optimize for mission success.
-
Chaos Run: Make impulsive, contradictory choices for maximum variety.
3. Read the Room
Context is king. A panicked civilian requires Charisma-based empathy, while a collapsing structure calls for direct command decisions. Your tone and approach should adapt to the mission.
🌐 Why Dispatch’s Choice System Stands Out
Unlike most choice-based games, Dispatch merges superhero drama with workplace realism. The result is an emotionally grounded story where consequences feel organic—favor one team member, and you might earn loyalty and envy in equal measure.
Each episode’s choices feed forward, building emotional continuity that rewards consistent play and replayability.
💭 Final Thoughts: Writing Your Own Dispatch Legacy
The real magic of Dispatch is how personal it feels. Whether you’re a perfectionist commander or a flawed mentor just trying to hold it together, your story will reflect you.
There’s no perfect path—just a network of interconnected decisions that make every playthrough unique.
