[β] daddycool@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago (1 child) Well, the henchmen usually wears masks or helmets so we and the protagonist don't humanize them. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] tiramichu@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 months ago (2 children) Exactly, the random goons in games are designed to be without humanity and to fade into the background as much as possible. Imagine if instead of dying quick and going immediately still and silent, random goons crawled around on the floor for two minutes in absolute agony after you shoot them like "Oh God there's so much blood! I don't want to die!" Would totally change the tone of the game. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [β] P00ptart@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago* "I have 4 kids and my wife has cancer! This was the only available job in this economy! I had 3 PHDs! Would you at least go to my house and give this letter to my #coughing blood# wife?" [Sure, buddy] [I'll do everything I can to make sure they're safe] [How do you think I got this address, mate?] I would absolutely play this game. Lol permalink fedilink source parent [β] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago Hey now sometimes they also wear masks to save on game resources. Like with Fallout NV where the Legion has so masked guys is because the game would shit itself if it didn't. Also I want that second one, best im probably gonna get is watching a dementia patient crawl around with a blown off leg in Rimworld. permalink fedilink source parent
