    Why Can't Comedy Games be Funny to Play?

    The funny yet difficult move being effective also has something to do with you deciding you wanted to see it. Call it the Fatality effect, a comedic bit isn't annoying when we deliberately decide we want to see it, regardless of how many times we've seen it before. It doesn't have to be hard...
