    Missed a much more shocking and totally surprising Dragon Age betrayal with Rendon Howe in Dragon Age Origins. Most players have to wait all the wait to the fall of Ostagar and perhaps even longer to hear about this character. Imagine the hapless newbie who chooses a human noble origin for their first playthrough, excited for a completely new game they know nothing about, and then, less than five minutes in: THIS guy! While all other origins characters get a tense buildup to their inevitable tragic backstory and forced recruitment into the Grey Wardens, one of the first characters you meet is Rendon Howe, who couldn't look shadier if he wore a sign saying "I'm going to betray and murder your entire family." Top it all off, he's voiced by none other than TIM CURRY! Even the most naive gamer at this point is going to suspect, "Hmmm.....this guy might be evil."

    You can actually turn Parker to your side to help attack Marburg, the aging assassin you fight in Rome, by finding out it was Marburg who killed his daughter. If you earn Marburg's respect, he'll leave and Parker will be left to fight you alone. And if you get Marburg's respect and tell Parker the truth or point out a flaw in his logic? No Marburg fight (he will kill someone later for you) and Parker will disable the turrets for you.
    I actually got every possible ally in that game on Hard mode. I felt so god damn awesome becoming a one man charmer, turning the spy world against Halbec (and then taking Halbec for myself).

    Not sure if it was brought up in the other two videos, but the 'child prince' in Diablo 3 was obviously Belial from his opening lines. The Lord of Lies being the worst at lying only getting as far as he does because Blizzard can only write when the player character is beyond stupid was very much on brand.

    • @AmeenaWordweaver
      @AmeenaWordweaver 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      It is implied that your character figured out pretty early on the "Emperor Hakan" is actually Belial, and was just playing along. I mean, it IS pretty obvious, though Belial seems mildly surprised when you just casually call him by is real name. But then, the other villains aren' tmuch better - Azmodan is supposedly a master tactician, and everyone keeps telling you so, but all he does is keep popping up to tell you exactly what his plans are and where he'll be striking next. Instead of, you know, just attacking a weak spot without warning in order to actually have an effect before you have time to show up and stop him. But no, he's all like "Haha, you stopped my X, well, I have my Y instead!", "Oh, you think you're so clever destroying my Y? Well I still have my Z!". And then Diablo does basically the exact same thing in Act IV...but then he is part-Azmodan by that point, so maybe that's why :D.

  • @AthAthanasius
    @AthAthanasius 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +27

    I'm feeling quite pleased now that when I was fighting Patches in that bit of Elden Ring I semi-panicked and just kept on attacking and killed him. Sure, I missed out on some shenanigans (and was puzzled for a while as to why I had Patch's Bell, or whatever it's called, in my inventory), but at least I wasn't fooled even once.

  • @Jonathon_Hennessey
    @Jonathon_Hennessey 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

    In my opinion, I think that Patches is more useful alive rather than dead because the things he sells as a merchant can be useful like Morgott's shackle. He also sometimes has a role in other character's questlines.

    I don't know if you've covered this in any previous videos yet, but... I genuinely was surprised that Big Smoke betrays you in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
    Why? Well, apart from the fact that he's the first of the Grovers you meet, is the only Grover who is actually glad to see you back (unless you count Kendl), and you team up with him during Just Business, one of the most fun missions (IMO) in the early stages of the game, it was because it never occurred to me that there might be TWO Grovers who would betray you.
    I figured Sweet was going to get killed, leaving Carl the only surviving Johnson boy, after which Big Smoke and Carl would team up as the last two surviving OGs against Tenpenny, right after they blasted super-obvious traitor Ryder.
    Yes, Big Smoke moved out of the Grove. But I always assumed that was because his mission were harder than Sweet's and Ryder's so they wanted you to tackle them later. And yes, Sweet mentions that "you and Smoke" killed Little Weasel even though, not only do you attack Glen Park and kill L.W. by yourself, there are no missions where you team up with Smoke and have to fight ANY Ballas, but I just assumed that was due to bad writing.
    If you ever do a non-sarcastic list of betrayers, Big Smoke belongs on that one, and Ryder belongs on the next list of obvious ones.

      Not sure how it all works out but as you say I'm really glad for Second Wind to be doing so well because they seem like a great bunch. I'd love love love to think that all our sub revenue was going in the pockets of the OX gang (including Johnny, James and Jon.) Who knows.

He needs us to go on a quest chain to find and give to him an all powerful scepter which he swears he'll use to help save the continent. Dude looks like a bad guy, sounds like a bad guy, and surprise surprise, it's revealed at the end that he was secretly a bad guy all along... and literally not a single player felt caught off guard by it.

    I'd go with Ryuzo from Ghost of Tsushima. He's an old friend of Jin's however that doesn't stop him from eventually turning on you to join the Mongels. He did it so that his men of the strawhat ronins are able to stay well fed since the Mongols are hoarding a lot of food, but still the betrayal did sting

    ...Ah, but surely she couldn't be planning something horrific with her fellow High Entia. Right...?

    Is Micah really betrayal? From the moment I heard his voice I knew it was gonna be me or him. I failed missions because I killed him for being a freaking idiot. At no point did I think Micah and I even shared a side. If I had it my way he'd of stayed in that god damn jail.

    I’d like to include the innocently-named Honest Tom from “Gun.” I’ll give you a wild guess as to whether or not he lives up to his name.
    Also: KotOR II’s Kreia is a wonderful example of this too. Except instead of being “surprised” at the betrayal from a lady named *Darth Treya*, it’s more curiosity at what her next move will be. It’s a great version of this trope that doesn’t annoy you, but rather intrigues you.

    It will never get on any OX list i bet, but in the first Guildwars game you are helped throughout the story by the only survivor of a lost kingdome of Orr, a man called Vizier Khilbron. He looks nice and saves your life a few times... till he does not need you anymore and it is revealed that he did die in the cataclysm that destroyed Orr (that he started himself...) and is now an Undead Lich that wants to rule the world with the help of his new Titan army you helped him to unleash, oh and he wants to kill you as well. He seemed such nice and trustworthy person at first (apart from all the undead he was summoning at will :)).

    RDR2 is my favourite game of all time and some of the best writing I've ever experienced in any medium... however I thought Micah being the rat was a bad idea. He's so detestable that the player naturally assumes he's the bad guy. Personally I thought the Molly misdirect was expertly done, completely unexpected and perfectly signposted throughout the game. We already had all the reason in the world to hate Micah, him being the rat as well as everything else about him felt like overkill.

Maybe see how it feels to cook and eat dinner there, test how hot the shower gets and how long that hot water lasts. Probably should see how it feels to wake up there day after day and if that would get boring or not. Shouldn't take more than a year or 5. 😂
