    Walking into this in the first Watch_Dogs. (NSFW. Very much so.)

    If you take the time to interact with all the hackables and scan all the people in this area you’ll have revealed to you the incredible depths of depravity and cruelty going on here. It is incredibly fucked up. It was at this very moment in my first and only playthrough that I decided that no, fuck that. Aiden Pierce was now going to be murdering a lot of very specific people.

      Yeah, that was pretty memorable. Like, it was pretty strongly implied but so much worse than expected.

      Edit: oh! And the music as you slowly turn on the generators for The Bunker was the perfect amount of mysterious and exciting! Loved that part of the game

      What makes thela5 work so well is that the twist works because of the format.

      It wasn’t mind control of the main character. It was mind control on the person holding the controller, and it WORKED.

    I remember playing Hollow Knight lost in an area really needing a bench. I found a coin slot in a room and put a coin in. A bench popped out of the ground and unfolded for me. Then a speaker popped out the wall playing some mellow music. There was a little glass window with fish swimming on the other side. I really liked the game. After that I loved it.

    Bioshock’s big twist was so well done. I still think about that one a lot especially in games where there’s no explanation for why you’re doing a mission.

      I just wish they’d used actual clips from the game, instead of recording new dialogue of…

      BioShock 1 spoilers

      Atlas literally saying “Now, would you kindly do this? Would you kindly do that?”

      Really, really takes me out of the moment every time. 😬

    The ending…

    Tap for spoiler

    …inside the Sun Station, and inside the Interloper…

    …in Outer Wilds. And if you haven’t played it, don’t tap the spoiler before you have.

    LAN party 2012ish. Playing Farcry 2 team Deathmatch multiplayer on the Clear Cut map. First team to 100 kills win. I got 60 of the 100 kills to win and from that point forward I was no longer permitted to use the 50cal sniper rifle.

    The Normandy level in Medal of honor was so thrilling. Also the submarine base level.

    The games that broke the 4th wall, specifically Psycho Mantis in Metal Gear Solid or all of Eternal Darkness.

    The name of the friggin’ gnome in the original Kings Quest on the IBM PC. Turns out I had a version with a bug in it and a spelling error.
