You, as the chosen one, will have to save the world from "the bad guys". Would you succeed or fail? Or join the dark side? Would you try so hard that you become corrupted by evil?
My answer: I'd fail and the universe is fucked because I'm just a pile of sadness. ๐

If I was the "chosen one" then free will is an illusion and no matter what I do, it will save the world. Like, that's the whole thing that is kinda lame about the whole "chosen one" trope.
That has always driven me crazy. Avatar the last Airbender did a good job of trying to negate that trope but mostly it's just ridiculous.
The wheel of time did extremely well with that. The pattern (the world's version of fate) allows people to make choices, but certain people have the circumstances around them adjusted, forcing them on to certain paths.
Depends entirely who's done the choosing and on what basis.
