  Far Cry Blood Dragon’s tutorial section. The game is very aware of how impatient gamers are to get to the killing, and milks it for all the time it can while the PC grumbles about annoying tutorial sections. They throw in a ton of extra dialog boxes like accompanying reading recommendations, obvious tips,etc.

  The whole game is meta and corny on purpose. If you like '80s action movies and sci-fi, they packed just about every trope possible into this thing. Heavily recommend if you haven’t played it.

    Seconded.

    I have more fond memories of blood dragon than I do of farcry 3, despite blood dragon being like a 20 hour standalone dlc

  Really love the moonman talking to you on every boot up. I always find myself looking forward to seeing what he says.

  In Drake of The 99 Dragons, each time you die, (which happens often), you get roasted and humiliated by some gods in the after life for 10 seconds before they allow you to revive again. This has absolutely no reason to be here, except for doubling the loading screen time.

  Could also mention, in the 6th installment of Touhou Project, Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, if you play on easy, the game won’t even let you fight the final boss, mocking your pride on such simple level, and this game mode is usually commented as child play by the games in the whole franchise.

  Eternal Darkness on the GameCube

  It makes the Volume go up and down and a bunch of other wacky things.

  The Soul Urn in Deadlock is very chatty and will constantly sass you while you’re trying to pick it up for your team.

  I was beginning to feel abandoned.

  You do know where you’re supposed to take me, right?

  You’re dropping me?!

  I like the simple messages you get in Quantum Conundrum every time you die. They’re not super serious things, but just things that the main character will never get to experience as they grow older, ranging from mundane things like not getting a drivers license to more realistic teen/immature young adult fantasy of eating a whole can of whipped cream as a meal.

  Bards Tale. That game was full of shit actively taunting or tricking the player. Best ps2 game.
