Let's post amusing/weird things that games have in 'em!

----
I am playing Mass Effect: Andromeda for the first time (really enjoying the game, by the way), and I like how all the NPC teammates are constantly vaulting and climbing over everything in the vicinity, even when it does not really make much sense for them to do so. So they are constantly doing stuff like climbing on tables or vaulting over random furniture. And while they do that, they also shout out in a way that often sounds way too dramatic 😄

So it's like:
Peebee: climbs on an administrator's desk HYAAHH!!
Drack: vaults over a railing instead of using the perfectly serviceable stairs right next to it GAHH! HGAAH!!
Me: 😅 guys calm down.
 
Oh I got one just from last week!

I was playing a "predator" mission as Batgirl in Batman Arkham Knight. It was the endless knight mission, so they keep getting more and more difficult as you take them out. Well I was far enough in where I was up against guys with chainguns and I had little health left. So as I perched, I planned to drop a smoke grenade in, disorient them, then attack...but I messed up the toss and ended up just dropping into the middle of a group of 2 chaingun guys and 2 regular ones.

This is where it gets cute, because I was trapped and screwed, so I died quickly...but HOW I died was the hilarious part. The 2 chaingun guys turned to shoot me, but the other guys got me first from BEHIND (important)...ragdolling me and I started to slowly fall as the game went into slow-motion "scenario failed" mode, but it was right THEN that the 2 chaingun guys started firing...and since it was a locked-in animation the way the game is coded when you die, they kept firing and firing and firing...totally blasting the 2 guys behind me into slow-mo revenge oblivion, and pumping hundreds of bullets into my vibrating shaking lifeless body for like a minute solid!!! It was such overkill, fuck I was laughing so hard!! Perfect code timing for their attack, just a slow-mo "budda-budda-budda-budda-budda-budda....." <teeheehee>
