In this video from Gameranx, we delve into the wild world of video game mechanics that defy all logic and reason, yet bring immense joy to players. From the explosive combination of Friendly Fire and proximity mines in Far Cry 6 to the hilarious act of punting Jawas in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, these mechanics add a touch of absurdity to the gaming experience. Just Cause 3 takes it up a notch with placeable rocket boosters that turn cows into majestic, rocket-propelled creatures, showcasing the sheer fun and chaos these games offer.
Dead Rising 2 introduces the concept of weapon combos, such as the iconic Wolverine claws created by combining boxing gloves with knives. Fable 3 surprises players with a safety mechanism toggle for weapons, affecting friendly fire dynamics in the game. The world of gaming also features vehicles with mounted guns that operate independently, defying all laws of logic but adding an element of thrill and entertainment to gameplay.
Bethesda games like Skyrim and Fallout 3 stand out for their unique mechanics, such as the ability to grab and interact with random objects in the world, adding a tactile and immersive element to the gameplay experience. Stealth games often feature less intelligent enemies to enhance the thrill of stealth gameplay, with guards overlooking obvious signs of intrusion. Despite the absurdity and lack of realism in these game mechanics, they contribute to the overall enjoyment and entertainment value of the gaming experience.
