What's the strangest game you've ever played, and why was it strange?
It could be level design, dialogue, plot, or anything else. And, of course, did you like the game?
For me, it's probably Shin Megami Tensai: Persona 3. It's half dating simulation, half RPG, and all awesome. There's good characterization, you feel connected to even the side-characters, and the twists are well executed.
It's weird not only because of some of what you learn in the plot twists, but mostly it's the game mechanics. You activate your special powers by shooting yourself in the head. In game terms, you're just evoking your past trauma to make your subconscious mind do it's thing, but that's not much better.
What about all of you, what weirdness have you encountered?
