SpoilerThe trap bench in Hunters March. After the absolutely grueling effort it took getting there, the relief of finally coming upon a bench, only to see the trap come swinging down. All I could do was laugh.
The whole appeal, the whole marketing, in the game is about making this gigantic steampunk thing. But then, hidden in a corner is a Pollution metric - how much harm your factory is doing to this planet, thus angering the bugs.
By being so indirect about the messaging of your grand conquest, you’re made aware of how horrifically abusive corporate empires can dominate continents without really considering their goal state and its damage; and how their response can end up being violent and destructive without initially planning to “Wipe out all other life in this region so I can have it for myself”
I think the loudest and longest laugh I ever got was at the very end of Untitled Goose Game. Not gonna spoil it for anyone, but once I figured out the joke that had been stewing for three straight hours, it had me laughing for the rest of the night.
I was playing Divinity Original Sin recently. After I got Pet Pal, what the animals think of each other and the people around them gave me a lot of good laughs.
Last month I fell into Cyberpunk 2077. There is a lot of humor in that game, but I remember getting a call at 2 in the morning to pick up dick melting off guy and I nearly fell out of my chair laughing.
Just a few days ago, at a local Vampire Savior tournament. Grand Finals ended with me sniping Q-Bee's bubble super with a callout from B.B. Hood's gun super. Wish I had a clip, but it wasn't streamed or recorded.
Also had a few good laughs playing Skullgirls earlier that night at the same local, chaotic shit always happens in that game.
Last week. Super Robot Wars Y has some really funny character interactions if you’re familiar with the source material.
spoilerKallen (Code Geass) and Allenby (G Gundam) both cheering for Mirage (Macross Delta) in their romance when all three are the “losers” is both hilarious and sad. Domon (G Gundam) turning into the mentor for Shinn (Gundam Seed Destiny) was already entertaining, but him getting a bunch more “disciples” over the game was great. Gauma (Dynazenon) turning every 5-person mecha team into rivals was also funny.
It was last night, I was playing Windblown with a friend and we were on our fourth endless loop. Everything was melting, it got very silly. Watching a boss healthbar just drop instantly was hilarious.
That’s exactly why I was so surprised by Dispatch! It has stuff at the same level of Sam & Max: Hit the Road whose the next door shop from the office I will never forget: “Bosco’s Guns, Liquors, Baby Needs”
