Hilarious Videogame Scripts

Ever thought that game scripts had severe "logic bombs", felt patronizing to the player or were just written with all the depth and complexity of a Disney Junior cartoon?

You are gonna love these guys, then!

What they do is to rewrite videogame scripts while acknowledging those flaws and shortcomings for hilarious effects (I'm still not over how they pointed out that the opening sequence to Deus Ex: Invisible War completely undermines the title by showing the largest terrorist attack EVER, something that, somehow, never crossed anyone's minds during production).

Other M immediately popped into my head. It's probably the prime example of everything that you described

The Tomb Raider reboot from 2013 comes to mind. Early on Lara gets captured by some bad guys. One event leads to another and in the ensuing struggle she shoots one of her captors and breaks down, visibly distraught over the fact she just killed another human being.

Less than two minutes later she has absolutely no qualms about picking up a machine gun and mowing down an entire camp. The game's decent for what it is but I just couldn't take Lara's character writing seriously after that.
