I realised this and rolled with it:
Not GTA, you KNOW you are the bad guy as in "I know I shouldn't kill cops, but ahh what the fuck". Games that cast you as the hero but really if you think about it, you are a bastard. The so called fridge-logic moments.
But can anyone else think for games that do this?Treblaine said:Considering that, the opening sequence has a totally different meaning:Casual Shinji said:HAH, fucking priceless! I never even realized that.Treblaine said:Resident Evil 4, Leon is a foreigner who walks into apparently benign village with handgun already drawn
-Leon bursts into home with gun drawn: *speaks foreign gibberish*
-Villager thinks: (holy shit! Some american gangster has broken in! He's got a gun! Is he trying to kill me? Just be cool, no sudden movements and when he realises I'm just a poor humble farmer he'll leave in peace)
-Leon: *walks over, approaching from blind side*
-Villager: (OH HOLY SHIT! I'M GOING TO DIE! I can't bear to face him, I'll turn around the wrong way, see if he has any confederates)
-Leon: "Durka Durka America Speaky, Bush Apollo Creed, Star Wars Rambo... THIS GIRL yadda yadda"
-Villager: (oh sweet jesus, he's some sort of sex offender, he is looking for our young women to kidnap)
in spanish: "I don't understand your language you armed villain! Just leave this place, you are trespassing and threatening me... I... I have a right to defend myself in my own home!"
-Leon: *foreign derka, reaches inside coat again*
-Villager: "I'm sorry... you leave me no choice" (grabs axe that he'd innocently been using to chop wood)
-Leon: "Freeze! Drop the weapon"
-Villager: "Get out of my home you crazy gunman!"
BANG!
-Villager (outside): "oh my god! That weird armed foreigner just ran in there and shot Juan! JUAN! Don't worry! We'll capture your murderer and haul him to the local magistrate and give a fair trial! Jose, quickly run to the village and form a posse, this criminal shall not escape!"
5 days later, Leon is in straight jacket in padded cell.
Leon: "That's what I'm trying to tell you, they were all ZOMBIES! I did nothing wrong and they attacked me, I had no choice but to kill all of them... all 786 of the unarmed villagers, even the women... and steal their money and jewellery... and sell them to magic teleporting wizard in a purple cloak for more weapons. Don't you understand! I'm on a mission to save the President's Daughter from Satanists! I'm not crazy! Would a crazy man go on an investigative mission in Spain without any understanding of the local language nor a guide or interpreter! I think not... I speak perfect Spanish: ying tong ying tong yiddle eye pooo! AHH HA HA HA! Ashley Bush, gotta save her! Gotta save the world! Terrorists! Satanists! Zombies! I'm not the crazy one, you are!"
