 Look at Heavy Rain as the archetype for the decisions actually mattering.


Actually, no: it's the same case for Heavy Rain. That is the pure definition of a game giving you illusion of choice. Playing a second time makes you realize how little decisions matter, (Something along the lines of what OP asked) since you are pretty much forced to go through the 80% of the game exactly as you went the first time.
