Those awkward moments...

[soilent]

I was re-playing Fallout 3, with a female character, at age 10, I ran down to the reactor level for a "present" When I get down there I realized I'm a 10 year old girl, locked in a basement with 2 40 year old men, one of them saying "Are you ready for your surprise?"

In this thread we discuss such awkward moments in games.

Ugh... one of them was your dad too. That's kind of a sick way to see it but now I'll never purge that image.


The whole Prince of persia (the 2008 one I think) was a giant cringe in the dialogue.

When I first played Ocarina of Time, I named my character Zelda, assuming that was the name of the main character (it is called The Legend of Zelda, after all). When I met Princess Zelda, she said "Zelda. That name sounds somehow familiar..." It was actually pretty funny.

Yes but isn't one your Dad? So that makes it a little less creepy lol

I find it more awkward still that one of those men was your father.

I really can't think of any, I just wanted to make that Fallout 3 moment feel more awkward. If I think one up I'll edit this.

And then he pulls out a gun.

I think that actually makes it a little more creepy.

For me it's Oblivion, all the inter-NPC dialogue. All of it.

Having to convince my brother I'm not gay when he sees me playing Flower

A little moment in Red Dead Redemption when I was hog-tying a bounty target and Marston decided to say 'I bet you pay to get tied up'.

I didn't know where to look.

In FFX when Yuna I think it was (I can't rembemer who it was) was teaching Tidus to fake laugh. I felt so awkward just watching it.

Maybe he'd believe you more if your pic on here wasn't of a half naked man looking excited that there's another half naked man on the floor unconscious lol

I looked away from my TV. That was so cringe worthy I almost stopped playing at that very point. I felt embarrassed just watching it. I have to imagine the voice actors had a fun time in the studio that day.

"Ah Ha Ha Ha!!"

Or more creepy. Also, take you could that undertone with a male character

OT: I really haven't had any except maybe if you include scenes that are awkward for the player (and not the game world) in which case:

Mana Khemia 2, basically any scene where Lily and Punis are involved, only really because my mother decided that she needs to be watching me game 24/7, which makes the games that I play a little embarrassing to play (quite a few innuendo filled JRPGs, and fighting games [which she believes have no point]).

Oh yes I remember that. I could not finish that game. Not only because of the dialogue though.

In Star Ocean 4...

Spoiler

When the main female confesses her undying love for Edge(Stupid ass name) it was so bad, the acting in that whole game was atrocious, but this scene was probably worse then anything in that whole damn game.

 

[Tharwen]

When people see me playing Super Mario Galaxy. They see the bright colours and assume it's for babies.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

"Snake, make love to me!" (Metal Gear Solid)

Oh God I shut my eyes and nearly closed the game it was so awkward.

 

[Purplefood1]

When my L4D went funny and both the other computer characters started constantly healing Zoey.

This:

Also when your rival says: "Smell ya later"

To a 3 year old, that's basically: "Wait......what? He's gonna smell me?"
