Absolute Gaming Truths

[Flos]

If there's a locked door you cannot simply break the lock off. Your guns and melee weapons are rendered useless before this lock. You must first backtrack four levels to Maintenance Room B, get the C Room key. This key will not open your locked door. As you make your way back to the locked door, you will encounter your currently immortal enemy. He will force you out a window or over a ledge or something and you will, magically, end up in a completely different part of the compound. Cue a half-hour of running around, but at least you've got some more ammo! You come to an alter of sorts and use C Room key to open a box which lets you place a sigil in the alter. Upon doing this, you'll hear a faint click. The room you started at is now unlocked. You backtrack more, manage to fight a boss, and get back to that room. This will be the room your ally will betray you in.

And that's why survival horror games are dying out.

Attention Escapists: Jokes about JRPG protagonists being "shemales" are not funny, they're just annoying, and by extension those who make them are annoying.
Sorry, really has to be said, even if it is somewhat preemptive.

On topic, regardless of your teammates, it's all up to you to push forward (see: Call of Duty).
No matter how much of a grip they have over the world, totalitarian governments and other major establishments can be taken down by a relatively small number of people.
A rebel or otherwise regular person has substantially greater combat ability than professionally trained soldiers.

If theres a save point infront of a door in a dungeon there IS going to be a boss fight/plot exposition 100% of the time

The enemy will always shoot at you over your teammates.

There is no ligitimate way to catch them all without leaving home (you have to see them before you can get them over wifi)

you will always fight your dad if hes a part of the game

your sword can always be bigger

if its old, its more powerful than what you already have

No one cares about your level. Everyone can get that high to, it just takes time.

Silent protagonists always save the world.

Green means... ?? not sure

Green means 'other' (anything from shields, secondary attacks, to guinea pigs and so on).

Powerful explosives are often useless against most walls.

I guess green can sometimes mean HP and usually red in that case is the loss of hp as the background for the green.

Also... if it glows, it's a "weak point"

Finding food on the floor, where it is likely that hundreds have died, is completely safe to eat.

Averted with Fallout 3, which most food gives you radiation poisoning.

You can have demon wings growing inside of you your whole life, just waiting to burst out, without the annual doctor check-up seeing any signs of it. Brutal Legend, while awesome, has some weird plot holes.
