Sarcasm, always sarcasm! I mean, that's why I'm here in the first place; the slogan for these channels should be "come for the sarcasm, stay for the puns"! XD
fun fact, the children in skyrim had screams and other death noices programmed in, but were ultimately made invincible XD seems like they changed their minds partway through production
I was the first one in my neighbourhood to get a ps3 back in the day. The game: Oblivion. We had a ps3 party, all my friends and neighbours were there. After many, many, many beers, and finally getting to Jauffrey at the monastary, i got the horse. One of my mates softly spoke, "what happens if you hit the horse?" That damned horse chased and tried to kill me across the entire damned map, for three and a half days(game time). Many, many, many more suds later, i tricked the bastard into jumping off a cliff. You can imagine the drunken roar of myself and my mates at this point. Good times...
What about the classic role reversal between shopkeep and adventurer in every RPG ever. Shopkeep: Hey! Browse my wares to see what you like. Adventurer: Only if you don't have enough money to purchase all of this. (slams a full inventory of junk on the counter) Shopkeep: My programming prohibits me from denying your offer that would realistically put me out of business...
In Fallout 4, you literally have to do a bunch of other quests before finishing Paladin Danse's personal quest if you don't want to also have to genocide the BoS or Railroad in addition to the Institute. Because Bethesda quest design.
Another great way to troll npcs is to let them in the car, then try to break the land speed record. You wanted me to drive you somewhere? *HOW ABOUT THE HISTORY BOOKS, BUB?*
You forgot using invincible NPCs as training dummies. You could use Hadvar in Skyrim to level up combat skills during the tutorial dungeon. I have done this loads of times. One time I maxed out 5 skills before leaving the tutorial.
Didn't realize u were able to kill npcs at 1st and missed sigewards quest line on my 1st playthrough. Im way more careful about attacking npcs in games now cuz im terrified of missing a quest lol
Hop: So, let’s batt- Player: No. Hop: Wha-Dud- Player: I SAID NO JUST LET ME CHALLENGE THE GYM- Hop: Hop has challenged you to a battle! Player: OH COME ONNNN
At one point, I ended up at a base where the NPCs were completely hostile in the northwest part of the map and fast traveled away, losing Serana and any hope I had at becoming a vampire lord
In non modded original Skyrim i use annye the fuck out of that pirate lizard woman Deeja. She never wanted to talk so i would just come and come back to her to talk. I did every mission and thing in Solitude. Still woulden't do the lighthouse mission a second time. Because i did not want to kill Deeja. I just wanted to torture her for all eternity. For years i went to Solitude docs just to annyo Deeja. She would just keep saying again and again: Do you want knifes? Knifes in your belly? Then you stop talking to Deeja. Every day went to see and annyo deeja. I would start whole Skyrim just to annyo Deeja in the Solitude. 3 years went see and annyo Deeja everyday. Some times i would even attack her just to see her angry. I would see dreams about that lizard womans knifes in my belly. But one day i met real woman and stopped my Skyrim autism with Deeja. I mean almost real. A nice little anime AI. Skynet here we come.
I'm surprised Breath of the Wild wasn't put on here. Majority of the npcs have specific responses to different things. Like the old man who tells me not to touch his wife's garden... and then I proceed to firebomb it while the old man sighs in despair. Or if you walk up naked to some npcs, they'll startle and scream, "Get away from me!" Or if you bring a guardian to the girl who lovingly talks about guardians, she'll scream and run away.
Speaking of legend of Zelda, I remember something in ocarina of time, the owner of the fishing area who wears a hat, you can take his hat using your rod and then cast it, then let it sink into the water ... But you have to pay for the hat you intentionally lose.
5:36 actually, saying that you can "trap" Minecraft villagers is a liiiitleee bit inaccurate... you can employ them as slaves in gigantic carrots, potatoes and weath farms, you can enclose hundreds of them in tiny spaces to make Iron Golems spawn in your iron farm, trap them in "villager trading halls" where they have to work 24/24 7/7 as shopkeepers, you can even force them to breed like animals to get baby villagers that you will enslave in the future... Minecraft is a surprisingly dark game...
10,000 hours? Who are you trying to kid, Andy? That biscuit eating technique is from 4000 hours of practise, maximum! Stop trying to cheat your way through the biscuit olympics again, you remember what happened last time... next time, McVities won't be nearly so understanding.
If you equip the torch in Assassin's Creed: Origins and crouch near an NPC in *just* the right spot, they catch fire. They then drop to the floor and roll on the ground until the fire goes out, only to get back up and catch fire again. Don't worry! They'll be fine... the first 6 or so times.
@@HughMiller98 I love doing the same thing in GTA 5. Shooting a single round in the air and running after them until they run into traffic and get killed by a car.
I remember when I played Twilight Princess, my favorite thing to do was to go into Castle Town as Wolf Link. Once there, I would let an infinite stream of worthless, passive NPC Guards spawn and start "charging" me. Then, I would proceed to run around the fountain area with the Guards chasing after me, screaming at the top of my voice, "MARCH, MY ARMY OF HYRULE!!!!!!!"
I jumped to that one, too. I always locked Groany McFartface in the freezer. Any time I trap villagers in Minecraft, it's for their own good. Keeping them safe because they're too stupid to go indoors properly during zombie attacks. I can't create my own new village if the idiots keep dying before they can breed!
Sims aren't NPCs per se. You actually have control of them. Creating rooms of doom, so you can have a completely full cemetery, was something Maxis had in mind all along. Hence why Death was there (who, incidentally, WAS an actual NPC)
Telling them you will help, then making them wait an extreme amount of time. Ik know you want to know what happened to your husband, but I need to retrieve an artifact, destroy crates, and find some books first. I'll see you again Monday... Next year.
I did that in the Witcher 3 with the Baron guy - the bit where the barn is on fire, some guy stopped me to ask me to save his brother or something, then I said I would and completed the questline without saving the poor guy. He might have burned to death, but he might not.. so I might not be a terrible person, who knows?
Did that in Breath of the Wild, the quest where the woman needed goat butter to make dinner that night for her family. Not having any, I traveled to the other end of the world and clambered over mountains for weeks before I bothered to stop by a shop and bought the butter to bring back so she could feed her children. Thisquest always bothered me for some reason.
Me when I play the sims: I use the NPCs as test subjects, I kill them in the most brutal and creative way possible so my sim could date the grim reaper afterwards. :)
See, I killed my Sim by burning to try to get a ghost as I'd heard you could do that. I got nada. She died, was buried, and that was it. I should've created a throw-away sim as I kind of liked that one.
@Valerie Foster Probably not, someone needs to call SPS (Sims Protective Services) on us, lol. Aside from burning my poor sim, I somehow allowed another one to nearly starve. Had too many in the house and he got overlooked. Trying to be kind, I took him out to dinner but he wouldn't remain sitting long enough for the waiter to bring him his food. I finally dragged his yowling self back home and let him stuff his face on whatever was available.
@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley There is a hilariously cruel "What's the worst thing you ever did in The Sims" reddit thread. After reading that I felt better about my sims parenthood, and I have played as a black widow. ;)

When Luke says "gold for days," the video showed he had 261 gold. Luke, that may be a lot in DnD, but here in the real world that can't even buy a proper sword. ....Um, I mean Skyrim..... In Skyrim it can't.
True, but D&D's economy is weird; for 261 gold you can get TENS OF THOUSANDS of candles which you can then trivially carry around as they have no mass or physical presence in any quantity.
>Luke, that may be a lot in Skyrim, but here in the real world that can't even buy a proper sword. Wait, you mean there's a way to get a sword in Skyrim OUTSIDE of just pilfering it from that guy you just killed 5 seconds ago? Heresy.
Ways NPC trolled us: Not opening their shops on time and jumping in front of our epic kill shots. That and not appearing where they're supposed to by not moving, forcing you to walk all the way back from the objective and push them there or getting glitched behind walls where we can't get to them. Anyone think of anymore?
Or you're testing your new weapon on a target when, a NPC walks in front of you. That guy is aiming at that target... I can make it. Enjoy your bount and new life of crime player.
Drowning: In a lot of games, one thing an NPC can't do is swim. Take most Assassin's Creed Games (2 is the best). Knock someone into the water and they are gone forever. Disfiguring: In LEGO Harry Potter 1-4, you could learn lots of interesting spells to perform on characters. So when we had a good list of them, we ran up and down Diagon Alley hexing everyone. The trauma we caused those poor LEGO people must be horrific.
Ah, trapping NPCs. That reminds me of when I locked Lara Croft's Butler in the walk-in freezer. Quite the chilling predicament he was in that day XD. It served him right for always being in the way.
Keeping them waiting while I run around and look at things completely unrelated to what we're supposed to be doing. Even better if they're programmed to respond and ask what are you doing/hurry up. xD Although the edging the car away slowly is always fun too. xD I also like to stop suddenly which sometimes makes them bump into the bumper behind the car. xD (I mean that's surely how it got it's name right?) Also: What bird did you guys see outside?! You never told us!
On Hit man I dressed as a clown, snuck around. Then I axe murdered everyone XD They would reply "Sir what you are doing is not illegal, but you are scaring people. Or Okay, that's not normal.
My dad would sometimes do the first to me, small children often do the second, the third was my parents around Halloween (mostly), and my little brother tried the rest whenever he had a chance (except, he claims, #5). I'm starting to think I might be a recurring NPC.
The first step is acceptance. I'm proud of you! Now, if you would please step out of this doorway, you seem to be essential to the plot so I can't remove you myself like I could with the rest of these NPCs.
My current favourite way of trolling people is in Hitman in the Paris level. By the fountain there are two journalists who are filming the event, and I love making 47 walk between them so they have to give up. Then there's Sebastian Sato the makeup guy, who gets really annoyed to the point of crying if you insert a coin into the memorial behind him three times.
I remember when I first got a Wii console I was playing bowling on Wii sports I somehow managed to let go of the ball on the back swing, All the Miis jumped in terrior I couldn't stop laughing.😂
The best troll in Skyrim is where you lure your seemingly immortal companion up a hill or a mountain, then FusRoDah them off of it and laugh as you watch them make their way back up to you, only to get blown off all over again.
my biggest troll was to help Faendal from riverwood win over Camillia instead of Sven, only to take advantage of his archery training and then tradeing the money back, marrying Camilia myself just because i could, and then i sacrificed him to Boethia
*WolfOfLegend* - It was one of the few non-questbreaking bugs Bethesda decided they'd get off their asses and patch out, but the community's love for it made them put it back... I still can't tell if it was a good thing or not.
What about the only purpose for having any companions; using them as packmules? I know Lydia is an amazing Nord warrior and all, but someone needs to carry all that cheese!
First thing that comes to my mind is Dragon's Dogma & the ability to pick up and carry NPCs. Many hard-working people of Gransys met their end because the Arisen got bored and decided to throw them off a bridge-at least in my playthrough.
I did that constantly. I also threw them at other people. Especially my pawns, even more especially my main pawn. I did it so much that eventually my main pawn started catching them and throwing them back at me. I wasted so much time throwing people at my pawn that I taught them how to play catch with random civilians. It probably wasn't fun for the NPCs, but it was hilarious for me.
I always went the opposite direction in Inquisition, because of the ability to change the color of existing outfits. My companions would have to hang around Skyhold waiting for me to find the perfect color combination to make them look good before we could get any adventuring done. Every single time we came back. :P
What about in the original Fable when you kept giving the shopkeepers beer so you could steal their goods without being caught? They'd be too drunk to care!
Dressing your companions up is a favorite of mine. Ever since Star Wars the Old Republic made companion armor purely cosmetic I've had a great time making them look silly
Luke: My sense of right and wrong is a distant memory Wonder why that is... It couldn't be because you've been mercilessly slaughtering those monsters again, could it?
freakofn99 almost like in Batman Arkham Knight, instead of saving commissioner Gordon do what H2O Delirious did, btw, if u dont know who Delirious and what the Batman Arkham Knight game is, go check ‘em out
Not NPC's but driving in the car in Final Fantasy XV and slamming on the breaks just as Noct sits on the trunk or as Noct passes Ignis a coffee. Also as Gladio is trying to read or Promto is leaning over the seat. Sit down Prompto! Maybe now you'll learn! Noct, Ignis and Gladio I'm sorry/not sorry.
Or any game that allows you to name anything! Getting Codsworth to say our name in Fallout 4 gave some of the best responses because he's stupid enough to actually say them!
You do sarcasm SOooooo well, I loooove how you just use that inflection each time and call it sarcasm, it's not like sarcasm requires some tough and wittiness, you can just passive aggressively say things and everybody will love it
speaking of RDR, there's a shopkeeper who is invincible if you punch him and then draw your pistol, so you could troll him by having him shoot at you (in response to you drawing a gun on him) and then leading him to the police station. John/Jack did nothing wrong technically, so the shopkeeper just kills endless amounts of police
I've spent... far too much time in GTA V running on the sidewalk knocking down pedestrians. Or shoving them into the street hoping they get hit by a car. What? I'm an injury settlement lawyer.
NPC, you really shouldn't have startled me, gotten in the way of my fight or were conveniently standing in the perfect place to play my human shield and save me from a red tinted screen. Maybe then you wouldn't have ended up dead AND ruined my Clean Hands playthrough
"I have already asked you not to touch that." "Maybe 'do not touch' means something else in human culture." "Will you please stop touching that?" "Fine, touch it as much as you want, you'll never figure out what it does."

How about a video going over a list of "[number] times our cover DEFINITELY should have been blown". For example, literally anything that Talion does when attempting to stealth.
oooh and in the last of us when you were stealthing but the NPC's with you would stomp as loud as possible to where you are hiding without alerting anything
You see, I like to think that when I'm boxing in villagers in Minecraft, it's for their own safety. Oh, and definitely in Skyrim when someone wants to initiate dialogue with me, I slowly back away and make them follow me before they give up and go back, only to fall prey to my trolls again. Oh Elytrys...
Half Life games: NPCs: *praise Gordon Freeman for his accomplishments and prowess/skill* Gordon Freeman: *proceeds to trash the small room they occupy with the NPCs while they praise him for his accomplishments and prowess*
I had a long stint of only using nice, bright orange dragon webbing and pink nevarrite in dragon age because it was the best stuff I had at the time. Weapons. Armor. Everything. We were the orange and pink squad and we all looked fucking amazing.
One of my favorite things to do in the GTA games is allowing somebody to open a door to the car I'm driving then speed off letting there lifeless body hold on to dear life by the door handle
Any NPC that gets concussed and shoved in a closet in a Hitman game. Or in the case of Mike, any NPC that has to suffer the PTSD of all the dead bodies witnessed because they somehow survived!
That driving slowly away, was something my father kept doing to my brothers. He would not do it to me since i strap the door handle then pull hard as he drove slowly. I broke the handle a couple of times until he stop doing it.
I was expecting the list to be something like: 1- Mess with them 2- F**k with them 3-... ... ..wait, what was I saying? sorry, I bird just stopped by..
