I thought this was fascinating

I f****** knew Doom was helping me out in some way, too many times was I on the brink of death where I suddenly went Chuck Norris after stumbling over my feet the past 5 minutes

HL1 - if facing more than two enemies, only two would actually attack. The rest would run to random locations and bark lies e.g. "flanking" So many FPS games probably do crap like this lol

I should link the Twitter thread
https://twitter.com/Gaohmee/status/903510060197744640 Here's a particularly neat one: Not sure if it was mentioned, but the tutorial in Halo 2 asked player to look up. Their input determined whether y-axis would be inverted

Like how Zelda ALBW will tell you to take a break when you've been playing for too long.
Good joke.
This is LinksLiege's signature. It is fantastic.

In Gears, found out 90% of first time players don't play a second multiplayer match if they don't get a kill. That first game's important...
So we started you off with some major advantages (like additional damage bonuses) that tapered off with your first few kills. damn. interesting read alright.
please help

Good read. Interesting stuff. Some of it we already suspected, but other things we never may have even thought of.
I use Google... A lot.... >______>

In Jak and Dexter the player would "for no reason" trip and fall to give enough time to load the next section off disc.

No thank you.

Dark Souls 3 bosses follow a specific time signature along with the music for their attacks, the hardest boss in the game breaks this flow. I knew it, I f***ing knew it.
Oops, I dropped the Magnum condom, that I use for my monster dong

dkc sorta had it as a mechanic though iirc, couldn't you jump for quite a long time after falling off a ledge (especially if you rolled?)
I'm talking about games that give you a 1-2 frame window when they're otherwise pretty tight precision platformers. Sure it feels nice but if you're consistently relying on it maybe you should just learn how to time jumps Banjo2553 posted... Besides without that mechanic we would have players going "I hit jump and it didn't work!" yeah, because they walked off the edge first. I hear people say stuff like that all the time ("I totally hit him!" "I was blocking, I swear!" "I definitely clicked that!") but that's just because they like to blame the game rather than themselves <_<
