10 Absurd Norms/Truths that are Perfectly Normal/acceptable in the Videame World

People don't mind you walking into their houses at any time of the day or night and blatantly nose around their home looking for stuff to steal.

The only Poke'mon trainer that seems to have thought of using his Poke'mon to attack humans for his own gain is that flamboyant nutcase Lance.

In RPGs, the main character/s slaughter many slaughter hundreds (sometimes thousands) of humanoid creatures, that wear cloths and have the intelligence to forge weapons, without any sort of remorse.

That crazy attack that Sephiroth uses at in FF: 7 that destroys our universe (multiple times) isn't capable to do enough damage to permanently kill four people stood in a line in front of him (yet he SPOILER ALERT kills Aerith with a single, bloodless stab). This attack is awesome though.

 

If I hold a certain bomb in a city, I can survive to have electrical powers and I can jump off of tall buildings and can re-heal by sucking electricity out of high-voltage devices.

 

After bribing the council for more expensive items in the local store and they don't vote in your favor, you can kill them all to get your way.

 

Hey wait, you can do that in real life too...

 

never tried Duke Nukem?
you "don't have to" but you can
and you healing when you do it
XD

I agree with you

 

Double Jumping

 

or change direction of a jump in mid-air
LOL

 

some people just dont get the topic.

 

You can jump into a jet and take off right away without any previous training.

 

You can break every known law of physics by jumping twice in mid-air.

 

If you eat coins, your health will be improved!

 

Also, if you collect golden coins, your cart will automatically move faster, without any tweaking with the cart whatsoever.

 

You get shot in the head, drown, blown up, charbroiled by a flamethrower, dipped in acid, electrocuted, stomped on, run over, mutate, chop off your limbs,
fall from 100 feet and still manage to dust yourself off and continue with the next level, dungeon, scenario as if nothing happened...

but when the bad guy sneaks behind you and stabs you, or your partner/allies, in the back (i.e. in a cutscene) you die instantly.

 

The glasses-wearing sociopath actually makes good jokes referencing popular culture.

 

You can shoot right through people as long as they're your friends.
Sackcloth masks can absorb one bullet from a high powered rifle or hand gun at close range.

 

You can NEVER take off your underwear. Dammit...

 

There are...certain...<cough>patches<cough> you can get...

 

Yeah. You have to wear a patch to be able to take off your underwear. That too, is absurd.

 

It's to protect the children. Apparently. Though I can think of one game where you don't need a patch to wear no underwear.

MGS2

 

Also, in the older Elder Scroll games, Namely Daggerfall and Arena, you could take off your underwear. I don't know why you'd want to; the pixel-bewbs n' pubes were horrible XD
