Apart from, you know, the actual boundaries of the map.
But apart from that, video games can serve up almost anything one’s mind creates.
Either way, we can’t fault the creativity of some of these developers.
Notice how characters always have spare room in their chests for things like RPG’s?
Video games are a fantastic way of escaping the daily hustle for a while and immersing into something bold.
But it’s these little quirks that somehow make a video game outrageous.
And that’s why we love them.
Notice how characters always have spare room in their chests for things like RPG’s?
And that’s okay.
But hey that’s video games for you.
One thing almost every gamer is guilty of is speeding through red lights.
It seems almost pointless to even include traffic lights, doesn’t it?
In fact, I think you’d look even more menacing if you actually stopped and waited your turn.
And if they did, I’m sure they’d be doing it for an experiment.
But hey could you imagine swinging that in real-life?
If only we were really as strong as some video game characters, eh?
I don’t think so.
And yet, the protagonist can walk away and press on as if nothing hit them at all.
But again that’s video game logic.
It’s as if they don’t even notice it.
you might’t beat it.
Brushing off a high-speed car crash
It’s as if they don’t even notice it.
Instead, many games brush off car crashes and rarely show visible signs of damage to the vehicle.
Video games have shown that by rolling up your sleeves — you can evade capture.
That seems totally outrageous in itself and still baffles me as to how it makes any form of sense.
But hey, we can’t fault video game logic especially when struggling to lose that six-star wanted level.
I mean, totally ridiculous but amazing.
If only we could really breathe underwater for an hour straight.
Having the lung capacity of a fish
If only we could really breathe underwater for an hour straight.
Even the strongest swimmers who often compete struggle to keep up with some of our video game protagonists.
But, for video games, having the lungs of a whale is sort of binding to the character.
When our only response to the confused friend is “just because”.
Even characters who can’t swim seem to be able to survive underwater longer than an Olympic diver.
Surviving an incredibly long fall
When our only response to the confused friend is just because.
It’s strange but worryingly true.
Please don’t try and sell your half-eaten bag of chips.
Video games have gotten a little stricter (or more realistic) these days when it comes to freefalling.
Now, you’ll likely only be able to survive nine-thousand feet and then end it with a roll.
In reality, you’d be lucky to manage five without breaking an ankle.
There’s no cure greater than a good old fashioned slab of meat.
Making a fortune from scrap
kindly don’t try and sell your half-eaten bag of chips.
But if I were a video game character, then I’d have made a months worth of rent.
But, sadly, that isn’t the case in reality.
We’d be lost without the several pockets of ammo conveniently spotted around.
Smashing a button and ransacking a business or somebody’s home is sort of like second nature in gaming.
We continue to lift until we become encumbered and incapable of carrying any more bread.
We fork it all over and make a profit, and then we press on in search of more.
But if that was physically doable in real life then we’d all be millionaires.
Eating to replenish health
There’s no cure greater than a good old fashioned slab of meat.
A lot of games struggle to find new ways of healing the character these days.
That’s when we know things have gotten out of hand.
And, you know what?
I have never heard anything more outrageous in all my life.
But eating a loaf of bread to soak up a rocket crater in your forehead just reaches new levels.
Oh, how we love it.
You enter through an old stone door and you light up the darkness of the abnormal cave.
But wait what is it?
Oh, nevermind it’s only a machine gun upgrade.
It seems absurd, but we really have found some odd things on our journeys.
Plus, there’s always ammunition conveniently placed around even though the settlement is from the Ancient Greek period.
But hey, that’s normal in video games, right?
Nothing is out of place.
