What vidya trope has you like this?

>>724899078 (OP)
Gay man fist fight

Teaming up with a previous antagonist temporarily. The jailbreak in Azure was the highlight of the game.

Game has a base/hub area that get's attacked during the final chapter, and you have to defend it.

I don't know any tropes that get me acting like this, but I'd scream "based" everytime the bald cuck guy from treasure of Nadia said something. I unironically got sad when he got shot at the end because he was the funniest character in that shit. I was glad that he survived after all.

Game has female deuteragonist from the start of the series that the protag gets with at the end of the game/series.
Or generally the main protag couple having a big role as a duo.

Master Blaster Zero Three was especially based.

Protagonist from another timeline gets possessed/corruptted/turns evil and wreaks havoc in the current.

Finding out that was the 2nd locked plotline of hundred line was pure kino

Not sure about HK, but Silksong does it several times based on Act, and then again after finishing the final final boss.

I love it when a series actually remembers so much about itself. I find it crazy that Metroid Prime 4 is a major title releasing in 2025 having gone through so much shit in development and is STILL following up on a teaser from 2007/2015 for a character from a DS spin-off in 2006. The fact that Federation Force was such a negative mark for Nintendo as a whole back then and they still bothered acknowledging that game exists in the opening cinematic is sick.

Never gets old. Even more kino when it's a sudden reveal that the game leans into like with Transistor's final boss

When the main character has his crashout moment midway through the game and you go from fighting with a party to fighting solo, while stronger than the entire party combined ever was
It doesn't happen much but it's based

Has a game done this yet?

In Reverse Collapse the main character is an All You Need is Kill style looper (resets to a save point she doesn't have conscious control over upon death, which is often) and at the very end of the game the evil bitch she fled from her original timeline to prevent the creation of reasserts herself in what will one day be her body in that now nonexistant future, bootstrapping herself into the past to replace the MC as a doppelganger infiltrator.

Most of the bossfights in MGR had me like that. The music having more and more lyrics and parts of the songs added through the fight, and then the big finale of the song when you finish them off was like FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKING KINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I felt the Bahamut fight was trying TOO hard, in fact, in went SO hard that the rest of the game felt like a wet fart, specially the final boss.

The TRUE moment I got KINO-CHICKEN-SKIN-SYNDROME was the Leviathan battle, when he actually killed me for the second time in a row I actually smiled and just enjoyed fighting a boss that was more gameplay than spectacle. (And the track there was fucking sick).

I wish they hadn't pussied out, and made dying while the Ash Twin Project is off actually delete your savefile.. I get why they didn't, because in practice all it would have done would have been just wiping your ship log, which would simply be annoying and nothing more.

This but not a temporary teamup. Make it a permanent alliance (or at least the duration of the story). A similar one would be the "enemies team up to defeat the even stronger enemy", which is why I find the campaign of SCFA to be so kino.

>>724938359
I think people overexaggerate how bad a chunk of the game is, but Hundred Line is the kind of game where you can just stumble into the good stuff really fast and then spend 50+ hours shifting through lukewarm/mediocre/"It's alright but not as good as the stuff I already found" slop, but there's a few mindfucks and gems hidden away in random routes and endings.

>>724938848
Is it as gay as I heard it is?

>>724938891
No. Not at all.
One of the antagonists is obsessed with the MC but it's never gay except in one ending, but the twist of that route in general is the MC has pheromones that makes everybody horny for him, male and female and it's played up as weird/creepy rather than romantic.

>>724939895
Well I sure as fuck won't buy it that's for sure.
Anything gay (female) though?

>a joke side quest character that only has textboxes transcends the story out of pure likeability from fans and devs

>>724939991
I didn't get all the endings but I did see screencaps shared here with some of the female characters kissing.

wuchang did this. its cool because the place you start is the start of just another cycle. in the starting cave you can see from all the marks how many times you died canonically. the first time you play the game you are already on like the 1278th cycle of loss. the bad ending of the game is just you losing again.

The game also had its theme song Suteki Da Ne, played at the lake where Tidus and Yuna kissed and frolicked under water. Also Hymn of Fayth has lyrics

>>724915510
>IT'S A GAAAAAAAASSSSSSS!!!!!

>>724899078 (OP)
a cool title drop
main theme playing during the final fight
>>724904456 this
completely retarded power level
mage speech during the fight

>>724910012
list all examples
its only kino if people actually die

>>724922734
Always thank Hideki Kamiya for suggesting the the OG Pursuit theme be played here.

>game is split into chapters/levels
>the last one is named after the game

>>724910108
Tokyo Xtreme Racer

>kill a God
>somehow, he's still alive
>"I have to settle this"
>1v1 him in the shadow realm
>BTFO him with a multi hit combo
You know exactly what I'm talking about and it is kino of the highest order

>the song that plays during the boss battle contextualizes that boss' actions
>The song that plays during a boss battle is a mix of several other songs and leimottifs that explains that character's arc

>>724938340
the joke is that the character was a make-a-wish thing for a kid with cancer

>>724899078 (OP)
I actually can't think of many video game tropes, but I also don't play movie-games.

>>724941931
it's super traumatizing in Rain World when you enter the safe spot and a disgusting nasty bug is waiting inside to kill and eat you

>>724899078 (OP)
Mundane evil antagonist and hero have to team up against a real world ending evil

>>724899078 (OP)
Changed overworld post game where NPCs say different things clearly being aware of the games events/changed locations

>>724899820
>Teaming up with a previous antagonist temporarily
Pure kino. Even more kino if the said antagonist is a woman and you unlock her hidden route.
Pic very related.

>>724940824
Yes, what I was thinking about

>>724910867
Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold did this well. Bonus
>final power up theme is an orchestral remix of your power up theme you'd been hearing all game

>>724939568
What game?

>>724899078 (OP)
you get to adopt the boss in his monstrous form and he's like a puppy

>>724940073
Example of the 2nd trope?

>arrive at first major boss
>his healthbar has a different visual style than normal

>>724943776
last boss in deus ex human revolution fucks up your screen if you take free stuff

>>724910215
Furi completely changes the scenery and the monologue of the character speaking

>>724939076
Jeanne d'Arc (PSP)

>>724938495
1000x Resist

Can't think of many examples but I fucking love being able to sheathe and unsheathe my weapon with special animations.
Can only think of Twilight princess, where if you sheathed the sword right after defeating the last enemy of a group, Link would do the boss defeating animation rather than putting his sword away.

>>724944464
KOTOR 1-2 had a dedicated sheathe weapon that had 0 purpose other than to look cool

>>724908648
Rewatched Bloodlines after many years and I was surprised to see this. I did remember some technology and the spaceship at the end, but it really is a world that once had whole ass space stations, moon bases, radar arrays and massive ships all over the place. The story doesn't even focus that much on it, making it feel very natural.
Genuinely cool setting, wish we had more media like it.

>see thread
>Dragon's Dogma has almost every one of them

>>724938804
>villain kills hero and end his bloodline
>someone sets out to find his legacy, learns of the prophecy and sets out to defeat villain anyway
you can't fight fate you silly goof

>>724899078 (OP)
>protagonist uses strongest move
>the name of the move is the title of the game
KINOOOOOO

>>724944464
I think ghost of tsushima has a thing where you flick the blood off your katana before putting it in the sheathe.

>>724937795
I hope so, though I'm fairly certain the ZR spam is just one autist doing it for free.
NTA but I just think the story is pure kino and more people should play it

>>724911283
Is this FFXVI?

>>724940073
I WILL FINISH
WHAT WAS STARTED
THE FIGHT OF PROTOMAN

>MC and Big Bad have been continuously powering up throughout the adventure
>Final fight has them gradually lose their new powers as it goes on
>The two of them resort to just punching each other by the end
Always kino

>>724938691
>yfw FORGET ABOUT FREEMAN

>>724923934
Katana Zero

>>724943606
not him, but sounds like LISA the painful

>>724925582
Got to it before me. I gotta replay that game, it's been a few years.

>>724940457
>game gives you level select for NG+
>it's an actual in-universe power the MC gains and you need to use it to get the true ending

>>724918380
Arkham Asylum, the 3rd Scarecrow section
I had caught on to coughing = Scarecrow at that point and as soon as it crashed I started laughing, shit was amazing

>>724924959
Used to be a thing in Hades 2, the final boss is Chronos the Time Titan
Now he just makes snarky remarks if you pause

>>724924959

"Do not fear, for I am with thee. Thou shalt not leave until I permit thee"

"Do not trust time. I shall guide thee"

>>724925754
A shame you can't derive what type of display the player is using so you do the correct "screen broken" effect, short of making a massive fucking list of what displays report their ID as, and matching them to a list, and also keeping said list up to date.

>CRT - Glass chipped
>TN - a quarter of the panel is just stretched colours
>OLED - Blackness starts creeping through the panel
>VA - Black levels keep bleeding more and more

>>724935012
>>724933428
MGS4 does it even more kino
Not only are you both exhausted and borderline dying, you then both inject the other with the shit keeping you alive so you can keep going

>last part of the game has you return to the first area of the game
>things have changed and/or npc's have new dialogue

>>724944710
Legit I only knew about it because I've read a couple of books.
The first movie is book one, the second movie is book three.
They got shit like force fields, robotic horses, weather control machines.
The real kicker is that humanity would have died out if not for the vampires taking control. They didn't cause the apocalypse.
