I'm surprised they only mentioned swearing in text adventure games. My dad has a story about playing one of those where he was confronted by a dragon guarding a cave. He had a kitten in his inventory. After trying every conceivable way to get past the dragon, he got frustrated and said "feed kitten to dragon." The game responded with "you monster" and shut itself down. XD
+Marie Assi Horror games ain't that scary when YOU'RE the demon-possessed creature hunting down and killing everyone. In the point of view of the monsters, it IS horror.
Jerry Cole Yes it is. I shot him once and he died for that game, so I had to load in a previous save file. If you shoot him, he's gone for the rest of the game and the only way to find him again is by hitting a restart or loading a save file from before you shot him.
What about Skyrim? I was caught being a jerk (killing someone's chicken) and then I had to: 1) Go to Jail 2) Bribe the guard to ignore the crime 3) Pay for the death 4) Run away while a dozen guards chase me or 5) Kill the guards and get an even higher bounty
ಠ_ಠ The awesome part? If you have a high stealing ability, you can immediately steal from the guard after you bribe them. I used to do that all the time. I'd make a thief character, and rob guards blind. On the rare occasion they caught me, i'd bribe them, and then simply steal my money back. The only downside is if you get unlucky and the same guard catches you again, you don't get the bribe option again. Any other guard, yes, the same one? Nope.
ಠ_ಠ I honestly can't remember, I haven't played skyrim in some time. i did have a character where I maxed it out. that was fun, though you never get a perfect steal chance. The highest you get is 90%, from what i remember.
ಠ_ಠ The funny part is I didn't really care about the stealing part, I just did it cause it was really easy to increase levels in and it helped me level faster.
Don't forget that if you also decide to kill the merchant in Resident Evil 4, for whatever reason, he doesn't return unless you go back to a save where he was a alive.
Fable has a part where you have to hit 4 stones with your weapon. The stones are each marked with a letter and the stones must be struck in proper order to spell HITS. If you spell a curse word instead, you will have to battle a pack of werewolves.
But you do not suffer any consequence of it otherwise people saying: " You did it! " Even if you were the recarnation of Christ, the Kitty recuer, you'll be sent to prison anyway.
Andy Moore Not really a punishment, though. I'm a genuine moral and scaring person. But when people started to point out my crimes in the trial, i couldn't help but to laugh my ass of. xD Ooooh, yeah. I stole you chicken, old man! Do i have to die for it? XD
Even if you do everything right you're still hauled off to jail and eventually your sentence is changed to an execution. Hardly a game punishing your for being bad if you're still punished for being good.
Since you go to jail anyway, and it really doesn't make a difference, I actually go out of my way to get found guilty. I want it to be unanimous guilty now, but it doesn't seem to happen
+TopTenz Yeah, put some effort dude, your vid would have a lot more views if it wasn't all pictures, if ppl wanted pictures and commentary, they'd read a review. :/
In the Oddworld Series there is a always a Good and Bad ending, Here are the bad endings Abe's Oddysee/ New N' Tasty (Oddysee Remake): If you do not save all 99 Mudokons or at least 50 then Abe will fall into a Meat Grinder DX Abe's Exoddus: If you don't save all 300 (I have saved them all twice :D) or at least 150 them Abe's Tears are used for a new bottle of Soulstorm Brew Munch's Oddysee: (Played it a little but never completed it) If you don't save all the Fuzzles (Not sure how many there are sorry) Munch has his Lungs cut out also him & Abe's Heads are cut off and mounted in the Vykers Office
In the game "Heretic", if you type in the cheat codes for "Doom", the opposite can happen. For example: All weapons = none at all, or invincibility mode = instant death.
ukguy Just leave and repent your sin at one of the guys who does that, I'm not sure if you're on 1 or 2. Also, there's more than one blacksmith in both games.
Beatamox I meant the first game and the only other blacksmith is the giant in Anor Londo... which you can only get to if you kill Ornstien and Smough, I had no choice but to kill him the first time I played DS a long time ago and it made my run basically impossible, now I know not to be so careless lol.
Goldeneye should be on the list. If in the second mission you kill the other agent, an infinite amount of enemies charge you, some nearly impossible to kill, until you die. And death makes you restart the mission, and this is near the end of the about 20 minute mission.
Let's not forget that bird that you can buy stuff from in Twilight Princess. If you buy something without paying, he chases you around and does quite a bit of damage if he actually hits you.
AH Red Yes, I mean an actual bird. His name is Trill. He belongs to Coro, a guy you meet early on in Faron Woods. Trill is in charge of the shop in Faron Woods, and you can literally steal something from the shop without paying, but if you do, Trill will chase you, and drain your health fairly quickly if he manages to hit. you.
In Link's Awakening you can steal from the shop. However every character in the game will call you THIEF instead of your chosen name. Also if you return to the shop the shop keeper kills you. Instant and unavoidable death.
For his 1980s game “Nuclear War”, creator Chris Crawford originally wanted the penalty for starting World War III to be that the game would slam the read/write heads of your hard drive back and forth, until your hard disk was destroyed. Sadly, his publisher wouldn’t release the game until that particular “feature” was removed.
In Links Awakening (gameboy), you can shoplift, but only once. Your name will be changed to "Thief", and if you try to reenter the shop, you get a thor level takedown from the shopkeeper. In the GBC remix though, you HAVE to shoplift to complete the game 100%, as it also gives you the 13th and final photo. You sneaking out of the shop like a scally, with a heart container shoved under your arm!
Some that definitely should have been on this list was Mass Effect and Dragon Age. Because in some cases if you happen to be a jerk it can cause companions to leave forever, hate you, or even die.
There's also a good one in, "Eye of the Beholder:" for SNES. It's a AD&D game and at one point, you end up in safe area where a dwarven cleric will resurrect characters if you have their bones. If you decide to be funny and attack one of the Dwarves, it seems like a million of them come out and effectively take out your party.
you missed one good one a zelda game where u steal from the shop keeper and if u come back to that shop the shopkeeper laser beams u to death and you get referred to as theif
Kyle Mills The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, dx is the color version its gameboy color. u need to turn away the shop keeper and pick up the item to steal and swiftly run out the door
oh right, I just remember in wind waker (I don't know if you see this in the full game but I played the demo), I was in some village, there was some shop (or maybe it was a house) that if you break the vases in there some guy yells at you
I thought that was Pokemon? Eh it doesn't matter, And just to add I didn't read the conversation simply because I don't want to so if someone already pointed this out then it isn't my fault.
I tend to avoid as much conflict as I can in game. The only exception to this rule is when I raided Paradise Falls in Fall Out 3. That and if anything attacks me, I tend to fight back.
i think getting your name changed to child killer is a worse punishment than the very next one on your list. having to move one screen over in a zelda game is not a harsh punishment.
I'm pretty sure the "Child Killer" thing in "Fallout 2" was just a damning title that shows up in your list of perks to remind you that vigilante soldiers will be hunting you down. I certainly do not remember the game changing my name. However, one such thing does occur in "Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening" when you distract the shopkeeper by running around him and then leave the room with a stolen item (usually the bow because it's 980 rupees) before he looks back. The game changes your name to "Thief" and literally addresses you as such for the rest of the game. Also if you return to the shop the owner zaps you to death with a crazy lightning spell.
It was hard to be a jerk in Fallout 3 too. You would get turned away on several quests you could never do again (The Stradavarius violin from Agatha was a big one), and some otherwise friendly factions that would give you quests will turn hostile and simply start shooting at you and will remain hostile for the rest of the game. This seems to be common with the Outcasts, and any faction related to slavers in any way. Those examples are just for giving snarky or mean responses, too. It gets a lot worse if you actually start shooting at people.
There is also AC, where u get desynchronised after killing 3 civils and Don't Starve, where a monster appeares after you get 50 or more naughty points (number of these grows every time u kill an innocent creature).
I think classic MMO's (Pre-WoW) should be at least mentioned, as being a jerk to other people in the game can get you ostracized from the relatively small communities, and being ostracized in games where you HAVE to depend on other people for one reason or another, as back then most classes could only do one or 2 things and "soloing" was impossible, was hell, and you would most likely have to create a new character and try not to be jerk to communities that held a lot of grudges.
While completely true (even during WoW's early days before the huge success...pre-bc), the problem is that the punishment came from the nature of the genre itself and not from the developers fucking with code. Now, if the developers or GMs took notice of some people having an overall bad reputation in a particular server and so made it so these people had a reduced drop rate on items or mobs becoming all of a sudden 3-4 levels higher whenever they fought a particularly tough monster (which in old school MMOs would basically mean death), than we could add them to the list. So far as I know, however, neither EQ nor DAOC or any MMO actively deal out punishments for anti-social behavior other than whatever is in obvious offense of their TOS...and that's usually a ban or suspension.
In Fallout 2, I used a particular trick to deal with the thief kids that stole your goodies while entering/exiting a number of buildings. I would use rock throws to damage the kids without killing them, then ending combat. From that point on the attacked children run away, posing no theft threat without having to kill them.
2 more from LoZ: in the original LoZ, if you attack the old man in the cave (or wherever else he will spawn), the flames on either side of him will shoot fireballs at you. In LoZ: Link's Awakening, if you manage to take an item from the store without paying for it, your name for the rst of the game will be turned to "Thief"!
In Halo if MC shoots Captain Keys Cortana yells at you then calls in the Marines come in and kill you. Considering the Cortana/Master Chief relationship and back story, this is especially horrifying.
+Eric Taylor Not to mention that the marines are invincible... Then again, you could just be looking for that "Meg" easter egg, so that's the only excuse for players not to judge you harshly.
For #8, this is changed in Twilight Princess, where you'll take control of the cucco instead, unless you hit it with the ball-and-chain, where the cucco is sent flying and you get nothing.
Darrel Mahan II I play it, and it rarely happens. Plus, if you do it until resetti's brother comes, you can go to the city and enter their 'secret tunnel' (it gives you a silver axe.
Ive definitely gone through the chicken unishment many times, but Ive known about it since I was little and did it for the first time. I still do it for fun from time to time.
Gears of War 3: In chapter 4, if you desecrate the remains of the ash "statues" surrounded by flowers throughout the city, you're later denied access to a stash of heavy weapons.
What about Skyrim? If you kill the Chicken in Riverwood Alvor comes and beats your ass in with a Steel Warhammer, Or if you kill someone in a hold, you are gonna get pounded by 1337 guards.
Thought bioshock 1 and 2 should have at least of been mentioned for the choice of saving the little sisters or harvesting them and how it affects certain aspects of the game as you progress.
I'm mildly surprised Bushido Blade isn't on this list. You can straight up kill your opponent while they're still doing their pre-fight speech. (But if you don't fight honorably, you won't get to finish the game.)
In STALKER: Call of Pripyat most players will side with either Duty or Freedom, they being the two most powerful factions in the game and allow the player to acquire the best weapons and armour. However, it is possible to side with the Bandits. This confers almost no advantage and quite a lot of disadvantages (everyone-and-his-brother who is not a Bandit will try to kill you on sight) but the option is there if you fancy being a very bad person in the Zone :-)
shooting the fish is tempting in re 4 since you can pick them up and the large ones while taking a lot of space replenish as much hp as one of the first aid sprays.
One that was forgotten. In the abandoned zoo level of Army of Two 40th Day, there is a tiger in a cage where the game actually prompts you to walk out of the room and leave it to starve or shoot it out of "mercy." Me and my friend chose to shoot it and in the next area, there is a plaque saying it was the last tiger left on Earth. Needless to say, we kind of felt like crap after.
I may be remembering this wrong, but in RE4, if you shot the store clerk, he doesn't show up for the remainder of the game. I'm sure I had to restart once for that.
Adding to the *Legend of Zelda* series, in Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, if you steal an item from the shopkeeper, your name will forever be changed to "Thief." If you EVER return to the store, the shopkeeper will use magic and kill you, regardless of how many heart containers you have. This also prevents to from granting Marin's wish. Adding to *Animal Crossing,* when Mr. Resetii makes you repeats him, (which, FYI, is typed, not spoken), if you say something mean (I hate you!) or certain cuss phrases, he'll get REALLY PISSED!
Also, another in RE4 is if you kill the cows in the farm at the start of the game. For each one you kill the difficulty level increases. I read that and haven't tried it so not sure if it's actually true
Im surprised that Dishonored wasn't on here. For those of you who don't know, Dishonored is a game that you can play one of two ways, you can sneak past enemies (which takes a long time, you'll probably be on a level for a few hours) or you can play it like Call of Duty and bulldoze your way through enemies (which is much shorter). However, the more people you kill, the harder the game gets later on (more enemies) and the worse of an ending you get.
#8. If you pick up a chicken (flying at you or off the ground) they'll stop spawning. They'll stay away until you throw it. It requires you to not get hit though.
Halo: CE kill CPT Keyes in the first level. All marines attack you and all are invulnerable. Also, you end up locked up in the bridge, unable to escape with your best friend and AI ordering your death and yelling "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!?" Always fun, but there is no escaping your fate.
why no mention of the guy who sells you weapons in Resident Evil 4 and how if you're playing on the hardest setting and you foolishly kill him for no good reason, he won't come back to life.
How can this list not include Ultima IV, V, VI? I just assumed Ultima was obviously going to be #1, since the entire franchise was made famous by its pervasive, behind-the-scenes karmic justice for absolutely everything you do in the game. Assuming Ultima was #1, I watched this video out of curiosity to see what #10-#2 were -- or if the video creator was going to try something really controversial like putting Ultima at something less than #1. Controversial, indeed, to not include Ultima at all!
Ultima IV for NES - If you killed a kid in that game, your party will face a group of hard to beat guards until everyone is dead. Link's Awakening for Game Boy - If you're a thief and steal from a shopkeeper then returning to that same store later on, you will then get a death wish. Sonic CD for Sega CD / GameCube - If you waste too much time without moving Sonic, he'll commit suicide instead. Fire Emblem for GBA - If you make one wrong move and your unit got killed, they died for real unless you restart the entire chapter again. F-Zero for Super NES - If you rank under 20, you will be forfeit immediately without catching up. Mario Bros. for Arcade - If both players wasted too much times without killing all enemies, the game will shoot a spinning fire disc that could travel through all corridors until one player is dead. Battletoads for NES - If your partner sucks and died (meaning Game Over), you died along with him / her.
How could they leave out Maniac Mansion's "use hamster in microwave"? If you microwave the hamster and give it back, you will be given a tombstone and that character will be a ghost. All the character's items will be lost and the music will be permanently off/on for that character.
I should also note that in Link's Awakening, if you steal from a shop and return later, the shopkeeper attacks you with thunder which is an instakill. Also in Twilight Princess if you take a potion without paying in a "shop" manned by a bird, the bird will peck at you if you return. And I think that in Wind Waker, if you break shiny pots in a mansion you will be forced to pay up.
Shooting Captain Keyes on the Pillar of Autum Level after you get the pistol in Halo results in Cortana ordering marines to do what the Covenant could never do - kill the Master Chief. Killing 2 or 3 marines in any level results in them turning on the Master Chief. Shooting your Able Team partner in SOCOM II and later games in the series resulted in death by Bravo Team. This was due to Boomer's (the original Able Team partner) stupid AI in the original game resulting in many gamers killing him at the beginning of the levels. Killing a non-combatant in an Assassins Creed game results in a warning. Killing multiple non-combatants in Assassins Creed games (even by accident) results in automatic desynchronizations.
MGS 3 had another punishment. The more people you killed the more enemies you had to dodge during The Sorrow's river. Also if you ate a vulture you had to hear his victim's complaints of your cannibalism of him.
Hilariously, the AI in smash bros to this date is generally the same exact AI used ever since the second Smash game. And to this date it never really was changed all that much, and they do in fact collect reflexes and reactions, but the reason why is because you, or some other person that was in a game with you, does it. You could go play online on Smash 4 3DS/WiiU, suddenly, you will likely notice that the CPU of your game may do one or two more of things that you, or someone else in the online match, has done. It's exactly how my 3DS CPU in smash4 tend to collect things, they repeat what other players or CPU do. Mine has a tendancy to often turn left and right frequently in rapid succession...
What about in Animal Crossing when you push people around or mail them a tin can (or a boot, or a tire) or when talking to the mayor when he is giving out gifts and you drop it to get another one close by.
+unotworthy Just making a joke about robots becoming self-aware and rising up to take over the world.. The robot apocalypse is a joke/theory depending on who you talk to..
So, I know it's not quite on part with some of these, but who remembers Outcast? You know, the one with the big brown guys and the portals that Stargate didn't steal, honest? In that game if you killed enough innocent people or allowed them to be killed in the crossfire the locals would get really hostile towards you, which made the game REALLY hard because trying to find one particular character in a setting where they all looked the same was a bitch, and asking for directions was the only way to get it done. If you were a dick in that game, you'd ask for directions and be told "go south until you reach the coast line - then keep going" or you'd find the merchants are selling your stuff back to you at twice the price they normally would be - things like that. I loved that game.

I killed it the first time thinking it was wild... Bad idea.
WolfyWolf Why was it a bad idea?

+Cheetos Hutchens Yep, kill everyone and you're in for a bad time.
how is it a horror game
+Marie Assi
Horror games ain't that scary when YOU'RE the demon-possessed creature hunting down and killing everyone. In the point of view of the monsters, it IS horror.
Yawn. Not much from that. Try a game that is more enjoyable from all gameplay points.
+SonicMaster Sword Damn. Walking dead must suck then
I'd also list how you can shoot the Merchant in Resident Evil 4 but if you do, he's gone forever. Boom. Your most trusty ally is now dead.
That is not true actually
Jerry Cole Yes it is. I shot him once and he died for that game, so I had to load in a previous save file. If you shoot him, he's gone for the rest of the game and the only way to find him again is by hitting a restart or loading a save file from before you shot him.

I killed him on normal and he stayed dead that way.

What about Skyrim?
I was caught being a jerk (killing someone's chicken) and then I had to:
1) Go to Jail
2) Bribe the guard to ignore the crime
3) Pay for the death
4) Run away while a dozen guards chase me
or 5) Kill the guards and get an even higher bounty

How high is your pickpocket? I think mine is 60.
ಠ_ಠ
I honestly can't remember, I haven't played skyrim in some time. i did have a character where I maxed it out. that was fun, though you never get a perfect steal chance. The highest you get is 90%, from what i remember.
rageoftyrael Yep never seen anything higher than 90% so far.
ಠ_ಠ
The funny part is I didn't really care about the stealing part, I just did it cause it was really easy to increase levels in and it helped me level faster.

Chrono Trigger puts you on trial and all the wrong things you've done in the market square will send you to jail.
But you do not suffer any consequence of it otherwise people saying: " You did it! "
Even if you were the recarnation of Christ, the Kitty recuer, you'll be sent to prison anyway.
Poetabrasileiro true, but you feel less douchey for taking the guys chicken dinner

In the Oddworld Series there is a always a Good and Bad ending, Here are the bad endings
Abe's Oddysee/ New N' Tasty (Oddysee Remake): If you do not save all 99 Mudokons or at least 50 then Abe will fall into a Meat Grinder DX
Abe's Exoddus: If you don't save all 300 (I have saved them all twice :D) or at least 150 them Abe's Tears are used for a new bottle of Soulstorm Brew
Munch's Oddysee: (Played it a little but never completed it) If you don't save all the Fuzzles (Not sure how many there are sorry) Munch has his Lungs cut out also him & Abe's Heads are cut off and mounted in the Vykers Office

Dark Souls... accidentally hit the only blacksmith in the main game and he goes berserk leaving you no chance but to kill him.
ukguy Just leave and repent your sin at one of the guys who does that, I'm not sure if you're on 1 or 2. Also, there's more than one blacksmith in both games.
Beatamox I meant the first game and the only other blacksmith is the giant in Anor Londo... which you can only get to if you kill Ornstien and Smough, I had no choice but to kill him the first time I played DS a long time ago and it made my run basically impossible, now I know not to be so careless lol.
ukguy What're you talking about? There's 4 blacksmiths in the first game.
Beatamox LOL I haven't played in so long I completely forgot about Vamos and Rickart... but still by far the most useful is Andre.
+ukguy you could've just go to the pardoner at the parish to clean your sins and done. also the giant can be found before the fight against O&S
I like how in the more mature games, They don't touch on the child killing, But kids die all the time in nintendo games.
You didn't mention Snake shooting you if you shoot him while he's resting in Metal Gear Solid 2.

Wtf is Banjo-Kezoowl? It's Banjo-Kazooie

AH Red
Yes, I mean an actual bird. His name is Trill. He belongs to Coro, a guy you meet early on in Faron Woods. Trill is in charge of the shop in Faron Woods, and you can literally steal something from the shop without paying, but if you do, Trill will chase you, and drain your health fairly quickly if he manages to hit. you.

Same here. I'd feel guilty stealing from a bird. lol

In Link's Awakening you can steal from the shop. However every character in the game will call you THIEF instead of your chosen name. Also if you return to the shop the shop keeper kills you. Instant and unavoidable death.

You sneaking out of the shop like a scally, with a heart container shoved under your arm!
Did he really say Banjo Kazoole or am I trippin?
That's what it sounded like to me. I even went back to listen for it again. Sounded just like Kazoole.

Some that definitely should have been on this list was Mass Effect and Dragon Age. Because in some cases if you happen to be a jerk it can cause companions to leave forever, hate you, or even die.

"With a sword," as if it's just an obscure bit of miscellanea you pick up in the definitive game of the 16-bit era.
you missed one good one a zelda game where u steal from the shop keeper and if u come back to that shop the shopkeeper laser beams u to death and you get referred to as theif
Which one is that?!?! I must know!!! Oh wait, is it Wind Waker?
Kyle Mills The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, dx is the color version its gameboy color. u need to turn away the shop keeper and pick up the item to steal and swiftly run out the door
oh right, I just remember in wind waker (I don't know if you see this in the full game but I played the demo), I was in some village, there was some shop (or maybe it was a house) that if you break the vases in there some guy yells at you
i haven't played wind wind waker
I thought that was Pokemon? Eh it doesn't matter, And just to add I didn't read the conversation simply because I don't want to so if someone already pointed this out then it isn't my fault.
I tend to avoid as much conflict as I can in game. The only exception to this rule is when I raided Paradise Falls in Fall Out 3. That and if anything attacks me, I tend to fight back.
i think getting your name changed to child killer is a worse punishment than the very next one on your list. having to move one screen over in a zelda game is not a harsh punishment.
agreed
Maybe Link's Awakening punishment for stealing would be better?
I'm pretty sure the "Child Killer" thing in "Fallout 2" was just a damning title that shows up in your list of perks to remind you that vigilante soldiers will be hunting you down. I certainly do not remember the game changing my name. However, one such thing does occur in "Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening" when you distract the shopkeeper by running around him and then leave the room with a stolen item (usually the bow because it's 980 rupees) before he looks back. The game changes your name to "Thief" and literally addresses you as such for the rest of the game. Also if you return to the shop the owner zaps you to death with a crazy lightning spell.
It was hard to be a jerk in Fallout 3 too. You would get turned away on several quests you could never do again (The Stradavarius violin from Agatha was a big one), and some otherwise friendly factions that would give you quests will turn hostile and simply start shooting at you and will remain hostile for the rest of the game. This seems to be common with the Outcasts, and any faction related to slavers in any way.
Those examples are just for giving snarky or mean responses, too. It gets a lot worse if you actually start shooting at people.
There is also AC, where u get desynchronised after killing 3 civils and Don't Starve, where a monster appeares after you get 50 or more naughty points (number of these grows every time u kill an innocent creature).
Great video!
and number one "banjo kazoohlergggg"
Damn. I still have my copy of Banjo-Kazooie and never realised that could happen. Almost tempts me to fire up the old N64 and try it out.
I think classic MMO's (Pre-WoW) should be at least mentioned, as being a jerk to other people in the game can get you ostracized from the relatively small communities, and being ostracized in games where you HAVE to depend on other people for one reason or another, as back then most classes could only do one or 2 things and "soloing" was impossible, was hell, and you would most likely have to create a new character and try not to be jerk to communities that held a lot of grudges.
While completely true (even during WoW's early days before the huge success...pre-bc), the problem is that the punishment came from the nature of the genre itself and not from the developers fucking with code. Now, if the developers or GMs took notice of some people having an overall bad reputation in a particular server and so made it so these people had a reduced drop rate on items or mobs becoming all of a sudden 3-4 levels higher whenever they fought a particularly tough monster (which in old school MMOs would basically mean death), than we could add them to the list.
So far as I know, however, neither EQ nor DAOC or any MMO actively deal out punishments for anti-social behavior other than whatever is in obvious offense of their TOS...and that's usually a ban or suspension.
Greyghostvol1 Good point, the devs didn't actually mess with the coding, it was just the genre.
Awesome list
That's pretty INTENSE XD
In Fallout 2, I used a particular trick to deal with the thief kids that stole your goodies while entering/exiting a number of buildings. I would use rock throws to damage the kids without killing them, then ending combat. From that point on the attacked children run away, posing no theft threat without having to kill them.
2 more from LoZ: in the original LoZ, if you attack the old man in the cave (or wherever else he will spawn), the flames on either side of him will shoot fireballs at you. In LoZ: Link's Awakening, if you manage to take an item from the store without paying for it, your name for the rst of the game will be turned to "Thief"!
The thief one is actually cruel as if you want to 100% the game completely you will need to steal something from him. (for a photo)
you could always leave that for last
In Halo if MC shoots Captain Keys Cortana yells at you then calls in the Marines come in and kill you. Considering the Cortana/Master Chief relationship and back story, this is especially horrifying.
+Eric Taylor Not to mention that the marines are invincible... Then again, you could just be looking for that "Meg" easter egg, so that's the only excuse for players not to judge you harshly.
For #8, this is changed in Twilight Princess, where you'll take control of the cucco instead, unless you hit it with the ball-and-chain, where the cucco is sent flying and you get nothing.
I felt like I was listening to an audiobook here...
Uh. T bagging robots does sound scary.
omg ikr
Dark souls! If you attack friendly people, you can no longer use them! Eg. Kill the level up lady and you can't level up anymore!
Now I'm glad I never played Animal Crossing.
me eather *whew*
Darrel Mahan II I play it, and it rarely happens. Plus, if you do it until resetti's brother comes, you can go to the city and enter their 'secret tunnel' (it gives you a silver axe.
Ive definitely gone through the chicken unishment many times, but Ive known about it since I was little and did it for the first time. I still do it for fun from time to time.
You know.... if you say steal a burnt, old book in Fallout 3, everybody in the area will attack you until you die.
Gears of War 3: In chapter 4, if you desecrate the remains of the ash "statues" surrounded by flowers throughout the city, you're later denied access to a stash of heavy weapons.
What about Skyrim? If you kill the Chicken in Riverwood Alvor comes and beats your ass in with a Steel Warhammer, Or if you kill someone in a hold, you are gonna get pounded by 1337 guards.
Thought bioshock 1 and 2 should have at least of been mentioned for the choice of saving the little sisters or harvesting them and how it affects certain aspects of the game as you progress.
"Animal Crossing Known as a cutesie RPG?"
Goldeneye for N64: Shoot a harmless scientist twice and he'll draw out a gun and go after you.
I'm mildly surprised Bushido Blade isn't on this list. You can straight up kill your opponent while they're still doing their pre-fight speech. (But if you don't fight honorably, you won't get to finish the game.)
In STALKER: Call of Pripyat most players will side with either Duty or Freedom, they being the two most powerful factions in the game and allow the player to acquire the best weapons and armour. However, it is possible to side with the Bandits. This confers almost no advantage and quite a lot of disadvantages (everyone-and-his-brother who is not a Bandit will try to kill you on sight) but the option is there if you fancy being a very bad person in the Zone :-)
Also, in re4 Ashley gets pissed if you look up her skirt.
shooting the fish is tempting in re 4 since you can pick them up and the large ones while taking a lot of space replenish as much hp as one of the first aid sprays.
One that was forgotten. In the abandoned zoo level of Army of Two 40th Day, there is a tiger in a cage where the game actually prompts you to walk out of the room and leave it to starve or shoot it out of "mercy." Me and my friend chose to shoot it and in the next area, there is a plaque saying it was the last tiger left on Earth. Needless to say, we kind of felt like crap after.
I may be remembering this wrong, but in RE4, if you shot the store clerk, he doesn't show up for the remainder of the game. I'm sure I had to restart once for that.
Adding to the *Legend of Zelda* series, in Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, if you steal an item from the shopkeeper, your name will forever be changed to "Thief." If you EVER return to the store, the shopkeeper will use magic and kill you, regardless of how many heart containers you have. This also prevents to from granting Marin's wish.
Adding to *Animal Crossing,* when Mr. Resetii makes you repeats him, (which, FYI, is typed, not spoken), if you say something mean (I hate you!) or certain cuss phrases, he'll get REALLY PISSED!
I love this video but I would have liked video examples a little more, also you forgot killing the merchant in resident evil 4.
Porned? Banjo Kazool? Really? I do believe you mean powned and Banjo Kazooie.
Maybe in Britain they got Kazool instead of the real thing
Well, considering it's a British game, we do not say 'Kazool'
Sam Begley Yeah, I live in Britain, we definitely don't say Kazool.
Dark souls. Attack a vendor. Never served again until paying a hefty fee
awesome video
I remember that in bully you only get to mow grass if you attack girls or teachers, kicking boys only transports you on principal office's door
that made me laugh so much, "pwned!"
Also, another in RE4 is if you kill the cows in the farm at the start of the game. For each one you kill the difficulty level increases. I read that and haven't tried it so not sure if it's actually true
Call of Duty 4, Modern Warfare: In "All ghillied up, if you shoot the wild dog, a thousand more wild dogs come after you.
Hey, this video came out on my Birthday :D
Im surprised that Dishonored wasn't on here. For those of you who don't know, Dishonored is a game that you can play one of two ways, you can sneak past enemies (which takes a long time, you'll probably be on a level for a few hours) or you can play it like Call of Duty and bulldoze your way through enemies (which is much shorter). However, the more people you kill, the harder the game gets later on (more enemies) and the worse of an ending you get.
In Link's Awakening, if you rob one of the stores, going back to that same store will get you killed
"Banjo Kazoole" OOOH THAT WAS TASTY.
#8. If you pick up a chicken (flying at you or off the ground) they'll stop spawning. They'll stay away until you throw it. It requires you to not get hit though.
"Chicken chaser" -Fable
The first one teaches you how to never leave a witness lmaoooooooooooooooo
Banjo Kazuul? Is that a rareware ghostbusters mash up or something?
I thought the Resi 4 one was going to be not saving the dog... if you help the dog it'll fight the Giant!
Halo: CE
kill CPT Keyes in the first level. All marines attack you and all are invulnerable. Also, you end up locked up in the bridge, unable to escape with your best friend and AI ordering your death and yelling "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!?" Always fun, but there is no escaping your fate.
I am confused... this is video or slideshow?
why no mention of the guy who sells you weapons in Resident Evil 4 and how if you're playing on the hardest setting and you foolishly kill him for no good reason, he won't come back to life.
Skyrim: steal a tomato, get arrested
How can this list not include Ultima IV, V, VI? I just assumed Ultima was obviously going to be #1, since the entire franchise was made famous by its pervasive, behind-the-scenes karmic justice for absolutely everything you do in the game. Assuming Ultima was #1, I watched this video out of curiosity to see what #10-#2 were -- or if the video creator was going to try something really controversial like putting Ultima at something less than #1. Controversial, indeed, to not include Ultima at all!
Ultima IV for NES - If you killed a kid in that game, your party will face a group of hard to beat guards until everyone is dead.
Link's Awakening for Game Boy - If you're a thief and steal from a shopkeeper then returning to that same store later on, you will then get a death wish.
Sonic CD for Sega CD / GameCube - If you waste too much time without moving Sonic, he'll commit suicide instead.
Fire Emblem for GBA - If you make one wrong move and your unit got killed, they died for real unless you restart the entire chapter again.
F-Zero for Super NES - If you rank under 20, you will be forfeit immediately without catching up.
Mario Bros. for Arcade - If both players wasted too much times without killing all enemies, the game will shoot a spinning fire disc that could travel through all corridors until one player is dead.
Battletoads for NES - If your partner sucks and died (meaning Game Over), you died along with him / her.
HOW DARE YOU SWEAR IN MY GAME! YOU WILL NOW SUFFER A FATE WORSE THAN DEATH...
"Banjo Kazool" Example of having never been a child.
How could they leave out Maniac Mansion's "use hamster in microwave"? If you microwave the hamster and give it back, you will be given a tombstone and that character will be a ghost. All the character's items will be lost and the music will be permanently off/on for that character.
I should also note that in Link's Awakening, if you steal from a shop and return later, the shopkeeper attacks you with thunder which is an instakill. Also in Twilight Princess if you take a potion without paying in a "shop" manned by a bird, the bird will peck at you if you return. And I think that in Wind Waker, if you break shiny pots in a mansion you will be forced to pay up.
The King Quest series repaid good attitude.
Shooting Captain Keyes on the Pillar of Autum Level after you get the pistol in Halo results in Cortana ordering marines to do what the Covenant could never do - kill the Master Chief. Killing 2 or 3 marines in any level results in them turning on the Master Chief. Shooting your Able Team partner in SOCOM II and later games in the series resulted in death by Bravo Team. This was due to Boomer's (the original Able Team partner) stupid AI in the original game resulting in many gamers killing him at the beginning of the levels. Killing a non-combatant in an Assassins Creed game results in a warning. Killing multiple non-combatants in Assassins Creed games (even by accident) results in automatic desynchronizations.
MGS 3 had another punishment. The more people you killed the more enemies you had to dodge during The Sorrow's river. Also if you ate a vulture you had to hear his victim's complaints of your cannibalism of him.
Hilariously, the AI in smash bros to this date is generally the same exact AI used ever since the second Smash game. And to this date it never really was changed all that much, and they do in fact collect reflexes and reactions, but the reason why is because you, or some other person that was in a game with you, does it. You could go play online on Smash 4 3DS/WiiU, suddenly, you will likely notice that the CPU of your game may do one or two more of things that you, or someone else in the online match, has done. It's exactly how my 3DS CPU in smash4 tend to collect things, they repeat what other players or CPU do. Mine has a tendancy to often turn left and right frequently in rapid succession...
What about in Animal Crossing when you push people around or mail them a tin can (or a boot, or a tire) or when talking to the mayor when he is giving out gifts and you drop it to get another one close by.
In MGS 2 you will also get called and nagged if you happen to beat up the hostages or if you shoot Olga when she's unconscious.
BK doesn't delete the game itself, just the save file.
nice pic u like .hack?
Patrick Grimm yeah.
"Pawned"? "Kazoole"?
...srs?
What was up with the robot thing and "pawned"? Is that a reference to something or just a weird creepy idea?
+unotworthy Just making a joke about robots becoming self-aware and rising up to take over the world.. The robot apocalypse is a joke/theory depending on who you talk to..
So, I know it's not quite on part with some of these, but who remembers Outcast? You know, the one with the big brown guys and the portals that Stargate didn't steal, honest? In that game if you killed enough innocent people or allowed them to be killed in the crossfire the locals would get really hostile towards you, which made the game REALLY hard because trying to find one particular character in a setting where they all looked the same was a bitch, and asking for directions was the only way to get it done. If you were a dick in that game, you'd ask for directions and be told "go south until you reach the coast line - then keep going" or you'd find the merchants are selling your stuff back to you at twice the price they normally would be - things like that. I loved that game.
