Top Ten Worst Games To Live In

happy repeat you're pickin a it's no secret that video games are awesome they're full of vibrant worlds interesting characters and just plenty of creativity that you can't find in other media on occasion I've heard people say stuff like man this world sucks I wish I could live in a video game that would be awesome if you're one of those people let me just stop you right there and ask you do you really I mean do you honestly want to live in a video game because if you do let me give you a reason to reconsider because well it's not as glamorous as some of you may think the reality of it is that video games are for the most part pretty far removed from reality this can lead to some pretty dangerous situations not only for the protagonists of the game but for the supporting characters as well as the myriad innocent bystanders in the background so I'm going to give you ten examples of why you're probably better off behind the fourth wall I've got a feeling you'll be a little more thankful for reality after watching this of course the play before foot rule is still in effect here so there will be some obvious choices that won't be on here including Bioshock and fallout and keep in mind these games aren't bad games in fact many of them are great games with all the crazy crap that goes on you'll want to stay home all right sonic spork ready yeah I have won the Time Lords and that means it's game time all right what's on the monitor ah looks like old times ACOG oh nice I could go for some that ol time jazz Chicago never looked like this skullgirls art style may remind people of the roaring 20s but let's be honest people the Prohibition era was totes safer than this crazy [ __ ] I mean the playable characters include a girl with a parasite fur hair an immortal cat girl who uses her own head as a weapon a zombie a nurse assassin a mafioso with a living hat and all manner of eldritch abominations and living weapons and that's not even taking into account that all of their fights are taking place in the middle of a conflict involving the Mafia the royal family and the friggin undead and what's at the center of this conflict a cursed artifact that can grant a woman's wish at the potential cost of turning her into a being of mass destruction now I know there's a joke to be made here but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is with all the guns going off explosions zombie [ __ ] and [ __ ] knows what else this is one time where my best weapon is a fight stick from behind my TV at least all of this madness is restricted to the city but if someone you love gets the idea of wanting to live in a world like this sit them down and have a talk with them oh and if your girlfriend has a big wish do her and yourself a favor and ask her to put on her Christmas list next okay what's next oh my god oh my god oh my god it's didn't world yeah it's did the world I wanna go to do the world let's go to dinner well you me he she we all go to dinner well yeah dude a world did a world dinner did me well all of a sudden the kingdom don't sound so magical now do it I mean yeah the idea of visiting your favorite Disney films may sound like a dream come true but in reality do you really want to deal with the nightmares of the villains of said movies may cause you and that's just the inhabitants next throwing all the Heartless that are out for your heart and all the nobodies that show up on top of that oh and for good measure to run the hooded hoodlums from his organization 13 who are constantly up to no good and all of this chaos being caused by this nutjob hell even your dreams aren't safe something can go terribly wrong inside your subconscious possibly rendering you a vegetable if the worst were to happen it also doesn't help that you'd be stuck in a plot more nonsensical than Donald Trump's presidential campaign believe me when I say that if you aren't a Keyblade wielder you may as well cancel any travel plans you may have had maybe go to the actual Disney world instead worst that could happen is a ride malfunctioning and the Kitt's of that happening are actually pretty low moving on okay so now we're in the desert well I've heard a lot about the desert they say it's automatic and beautiful and what kind of hellhole have I ended up in now figures I think Marcus said it best in the intro of the first Borderlands Pandora is a wasteland it is dangerous and only a fool would search for anything of value on that godforsaken hunk of rock the landscape of the planet is harsh and unforgiving enough but with blistering deserts killing Tundras caves filled with all manner of dangerous crap and other decidedly less than ideal environments and what pray tell populates these environments let's start with vicious Scaggs racks bully moans threshers and all the other hazardous beasts waiting it to your face clean off how about something more human you say well with all the bandits and psychos that'll shoot our main anything that moves in their general direction here not much safer civilization you say yeah the closest thing to normal civilization you're likely to find it's probably associated with one of the various firearms manufacturers who are vying for control over the vaults which are probably the most dangerous things of all if you're lucky you may find someone who isn't out for your head or may even help you for the right price or if you're really lucky you may come across sanctuary which is probably the closest to a safe haven you can possibly find but that's too much risk for very little reward besides why would you want to live on the same planet as this prick ass do where the hell have you been we're getting at it here now who's house close well at least this looks like a pretty tranquil setting oh hey look there's kitties here well hello monster hunter my old friend should have seen this coming yeah you might think that the life of a hunter is really freaking glamorous I mean there's high adventure a life of exploration fighting giant [ __ ] monsters using weapons and armor made from monster remains yeah that sounds exciting as hell but when you take a look at some of the requests your clients actually put out you come to realize that without the hunters everyone else would be [ __ ] out of luck well the little guys like the jaggies aren't much trouble but it's the big guys you gotta worry about imagine being a traveling merchant and a Diablo sends off cutting off your trade route Kong a situation like that bad for business would be an understatement or how about being a fisherman in dangerous waters like these you'd better hope you either have hunting skills or make sure your vessel has some kind of defense mechanism just ask these guys they know how it is with beasts like lagiacrus stuck in the waters and civilians well if you're a villager you'd better prepare for the worst if word of an elder dragon reaches home suddenly learning how to hunt seems less of a lifestyle choice and more of a necessity yeah it's a dangerous lifestyle to be sure but at least if you know how to fight you have more of a chance than most people yeah today's forecast calls for extreme danger with a 90% chance of screw this I'm out of here put that monitor is showing panic in the streets already definitely not a good the world of guilty gear ladies in spies yeah in case a century long war prior to the events of the first game weren't enough of a hint gears can be extremely dangerous these things were created to be the next stage of human evolution because you know that can't possibly go wrong I mean justice started the whole war because gears were being mass-produced as weapons of war they caused so much destruction that the holy Knights worked on a weapon to stop them that had to be split into eight pieces because it was too powerful for one being to control and if you think that justice being destroyed would make this a better place well that's just a false sense of security especially when you consider the match nations at the post war administration Bureau and more recently the Conclave and that's not even taken into account the backyard ever since the existence of this alternate dimension was revealed in guilty gear - overture its inhabitants have caused no end of trouble first was Valentine and her visuals wrecking havoc in Illyria and then Ramnath all happened in declared war on the world and then the cradle happened and destroyed an entire city effortlessly and now things are looking to become even worse you could probably blame Batman but I've got a feeling that this crap sack world has had a lot of this coming for quite some time heaven or hell let's rock right out of here well this looks like a normal City nice normal City full of nice normal people okay what's the catch well there's your problem there is no way I could let such an obvious archaic classic go unnoticed on a list like this given my handle I mean on the quarter guy it's kind of in my job description yeah pharmaceutical companies who charge $750 a pill for life-saving this and are reprehensible to be sure but scum Labs literally created monsters to their unsavory experiments and what do you think that people who have been muted into godzilla-sized monstrosity would do oh I figured they'd probably gather for a nice civil game night hell no they turn cities into their own rumpus room for a total orgy of destruction that doesn't stop like ever welcome to the old school terror of rampage folks and what a fitting name that is where buildings become punching bags and there is no safe haven anywhere in any given metropolis in this game if you're a human your lunch innocent civilians are devoured by the hundreds for health power-ups because you know every guy too needs a steady diet of human flesh and bones the only hope for these people is the military and a single tanker copter goes down with a single punch of course life isn't exactly easy for a giant monster on a world tour of total destruction while a single military vehicle doesn't amount to much the damage they do from bullets dynamite and whatever else they throw at you is gonna add up and it's eventually going to get to the point where ok I did not need to see that next destination before I get scarred even further or before I get stopped on a reading okay we're done with kaiju what now oh hey we're in Greece you know I've always wanted to visit the Greek shores you pocket change what Hades what are you doing in my video what are you doing in my video he says well I should be asking you what are you doing in my game oh have fun the world of Greek mythology was more tame than this insanity well usually I mean where were the people of this world be without pittypat bailing them out from the underworld armies forces seriously there are monsters everywhere and they're made from the souls of the dead not to mention their being committed by legendary beasts and deities of evil of course you'd wish it was just the underworld army when the forces of nature come into play with our goddamn reset bombs it also doesn't help that they're being led by an eco freak of a goddess was a grudge against humans for ruining the beauty of nature though you do can event to admit she does on the point check not all humans then none enough chaos for you try and invasion by aliens bent on total destruction and consumption forcing pellet in his army the forces of nature and the underworld army to cooperate still not enough how about having your precious goddess of light possessed by an extra dimensional parasite and going on a total rampage of her own and to top it all off Hades just Hades let's just say that pit has his hand seriously full and for the most part he's the only one who's capable of pulling his own weight how much the civilians feel about all this carnage if I had to guess probably like you felt after plague Samurai Shodown said okay that's enough out of you QG out killjoy okay what's on the monitor now well looks like my dimensional room has gone through time 20 X 6 we live in the future now getting battle okay let's see if we can go a little further why do we get the feeling that it just got worse that's why next ooh oh dear god no nope well this looks a little better a toast to my big mouth well an island getaway would be a nice welcome break alternate timeline here I come well Internet Society what could go wrong come on can I catch a break okay now can I catch my breath the point is no matter what generation you look at living in the Megaman universe would suck the constant attacks and scheming of dr. wily resort rep Lloyd's on the maverick virus a civil war further aggravated by a hateful tyrant constant conflicts of our bio metals air parrots and the constant threat of rain initialization internet viruses causing physical crises in the real world invasions by radio wave aliens who want to destroy us all the series has problems of every shape and size honestly surprised that none of the heroes have just up and quit the best advice I can say is pick your [ __ ] poison as for me I'm gonna do the smart thing and zap on out of this multiverse before things get even worse okay I've seen enough [ __ ] to last a lifetime I think I can handle whatever this next Dean can throw at me hear me game come at me bro I take it back what you're witnessing is the madness that is Final Fantasy 6 what begins with an empire going to any lengths to revive the power of magic starts out bad and just gets worse let's list off the sort of stuff that happens in the first part of the game let's see we start with a castle being burned an entire city being poisoned the use of magitek weapons to terrorize innocent people what have you these guys aren't taking any prisoners especially the Ascended joker known as kefka and that's before the little matter of kefka literally destroying the world killing countless innocents and causing untold devastation if that's not enough of a sign that everything is going to [ __ ] it gets even worse plants refuse to grow from the magical fallout muted beasts from the land mythical monsters that were long sealed away have been released from their slumber are now ravaged what remains and worst of all kefka has become the god of magic every surviving living thing lives in fear of kefka's power not knowing whether they'll survive to see another terrifying day or be annihilated by kefka's light of judgment which he unleashes whenever he damn well wants pissed off he'll destroy a town board he'll destroy a village all he cares about is destruction chances are the only people enjoying living under kefka's clown boots are people just as submitted as he is or any a number of kefka's mindless cultists another latter group does is shuffle around in a conga line sounds like the ideal life am i right i say hell no i'm gonna go to the honorable mentions while the returners take care of business own about those honorable mentions here they are Xenoblade Chronicles sure it's nice until mekin attack the wonderful 101 alien invasion enough said sonic between Eggman and eldritch abominations I say no touhou too many bullets The King of Fighters then the fate of the world depends on a fighting tournament BlazBlue spiritual successor to guilty gear fun to play not fun to live in Legend of Zelda how many times this high Roman attack now no seriously I kind of lost count and undertale if you're a bad human in a monster world you're gonna have a bad time you here we are the absolute worst game to live in a game whose universe is in constant conflict with no end in sight not one not two but no less than six realms which could be on the brink of Armageddon on any given day so what is it oh my Elder Gods what have I gotten myself into the universe created by Ed Boon and the gang of dystopian architect that now form NetherRealm Studios is crap sack after crap sack with no end in sight if it's not a soul stealing shape-shifting sorcerer or running a tournament in which mortals fight monsters for the fate of earth realm it's a warlord bent on conquest and doing all manner of unspeakable things to this end if it's not a tournament in the savage wasteland of Outworld it's an invasion by Shao Kahn resulting in the souls of nearly every living thing being held hostage if it's not that it's a following God waging war against the heavens with the aid of a necromancer that not enough how about the sorcerer Shang Tsung and the necromancer quan chi teaming up to raise a mummified army from the dead to conquer everything and when you think that's the worst of it we have a long dead dragon king taking advantage of one man's hubris to bring about his resurrection and renew his campaign of destruction it all leads up to a war among dozens of combatants which threatens to plunge the realms into armageddon and the only solution to the problem ends up backfiring no worries right lord Wayne's gonna send a message to his past self so he can make everything better right well by better it turns out to be arguably worse Shao Kahn's still invades earth realm and brings it to the brink of Armageddon people die who aren't even supposed to Quan Chi takes control of many of the Warriors who fell reign defeating Shao Kahn opens the way for the rise of shinnok who ends up corrupting the energy of earth realm and even after Raiden purifies it he ends up overcome by the nether realms corruption himself so it's pretty safe to say that there's no end in sight to this nightmare no sign of lasting peace no resolution in the foreseeable future no guarantee that the realms will survive until tomorrow no mercy shown no quarter given that is what makes mortal that arguably the worst game to live in I'm the quarter guy and if there's one point I want to make with a list like this it's that as bad as this world can be there are a lot of worse alternatives so many more terrifying scenarios that we could be going through so there's really no point in wishing you are living in another world instead think of something even the tiniest thing you can do to make this world even a little bit better and then do it and the chef that's fine see you and dad thanks for watching I had a lot of fun
