Most ridiculous idea ever added to a game.

Recently got a game called pit people.

A turn based strategy game. You have this guy with a gun who is supposed to attack from like 6 hexagons away. The AI is set to go in melee range and slap you with a gun.

Only thing I can think of atm

What are your ideas?

Babalities.

Goat simulator

DLC.

Pazaak.

Tripping.

Losing lives.

I agree. It is one thing to have it to have custom looks for characters, but it has got out of control.

@black_wreath: Christ I remember those. Which game was that in? Was it Deception?

MK 2/3/Trilogy and they made a comeback in 9.

I got the joke regarding Friendships but Babalities just confused me.

stupid companions that start rushing at enemies when you are trying to be stealthy.

DLC's are fine, just make a finished game before putting DLC's out

Pre Orders are the true cancer

A medieval world where there are no children, no old people, and you can't jump over slighlty elevated floors without other slanted terrain connected to it.

Well, people usually died young and children died a lot too.

Bioshock: Infinite - the whole premise is just ridiculously non-sensical.

Friendly NPC's in F***ING EVERYTHING EVER!

Multiplayer gimmicks like active camo and teleporting behind people shooting at you.

RNG. Gears of war 4 and halo, I'm looking at you.

A world where everyone has peak human body and fitness, and people get married and pass on through the generations, but no babies, children, or old/unfit/wrinkly-skinned people can be found anywhere.

@princeleif: What game are you referring to?

why would the player ever want to close a door after opening it?

Stealth games.

@jedixman: in my experience the AI never even notices

They do in MGSV. They occasionally notice in Skyrim if you go the stealth route.

EDIT: Also in This War of Mine. Line of sight matters, and enemies notice if there's a door open.

Pazaak is great.

Children online assuming that all other players are homosexual minorities with promiscuous mothers.

Diablo III auction house.

The "Cat Fight" trophy in Injustice 2. Impossible.

@redxiii18881990: gotta have those Reqs. I'm still waiting on getting Kelly's helmet after being SR level 120....

Quick Time Events. You know, the the events either during cutscenes or battles that require you to hit this certain button followed by another certain button, or just altogether a button combination, so you can finish off a boss or progress in the story. It's annoying.

Escort Missions. Now this can be workable if the escort characters AI wasn't some useless annoying piece of garbage that kept on dying and overall being stupid. An maybe I think there's only been like less than 5 notable cases where this has been a thing. So obviously people are not learning fast enough on how to make "Escort Missions" not rage inducing.

DLC. More so for story content then all that other crap. I could care less about the little trinkets an wears the developers try to sucker players out of money with. But it really burns me when they put out a incomplete game and make you pay full price for it, and then later down the line make all this new stuff to "fill in all the gaps" (that is if everything goes smoothly or if they give a damn by then), an then expect you to shill out some more money for their content. It's downright ridiculous.

don't forget the Dishonored games

Do they seriously notice in MGSV? I don't even remember that.

I couldn't remember doors in Dishonored (I didn't play the sequel), but that, too.

I think so. They noticed me, anyway. I'll try to intentionally do that and see what happens.

@jedixman: same on not playing the sequel (I lack a ps4) but yeah I hid bodies behind doors after I knocked them out.

I have a PS4, but I didn't want to drop the $60. At this point, I'm waiting for them to bundle the DLC with the game for PC.

@jedixman: smart plan

the entire asura's wrath

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

Exclusives,I own a PS4 but Sony's ps exclusives are one of the most stupidest things to happen.

@thesenate: at least some of the halo reqs have a purpose. Better weapons, or vehicles. Gears of war is a slap in the face. Pay money for a chance to win a skin. Makes so angry.

They do, I'm currently playing back through MGSV and I've been caught out by these things.

The only obvious ridiculous idea ever added to games

Realism

I thought it was stupid when FPS's dropped the med packs and decided to give player characters a healing factor instead.

@Penguin-Dust: Lol! XD

Damn straight.

Individual boob physics.

Didn't say I didn't like it, but it is ridiculous.

I have grown to despise the RNG shit that is implemented in the multiplayer "packs" that you buy after earning in-game credits. It completely takes away the sense of reward and instead leaves it up to chance. Even then the developers set the odds of how likely a skin or character or whatever is to drop. It is complete cancer and I don't feel like I earned anything, when I do manage to get something valuable in a pack. It's all "luck". In short, I guess the most ridiculous thing is microtransactions, ESPECIALLY in a game that was set at full price.

Yeah, but it's not really necessary when trying to save the galaxy from a deranged 7ft former Jedi with no jaw.

@giliad_: @jedixman: .......MAYBE THATS WHY I WAS SO BAD AT THE GAME
