watchmojo.com as decisions and horror
video games before we begin we publish
new videos every day
so be sure to subscribe and ring the
bell to get notified about our latest
videos for this list we’re looking at
unbelievably stupid decisions that
backfired spectacularly in horror games
due to the subject matter please note a
spoiler warning is now in effect along
with a whole lot of idiocy i’m todd
haberkorn the voice of reason in the
audience that the horror movie character
never listens to as they walked down
those dark stairways into the abyss and
having been in horror movies myself I’ve
certainly made my own dumb decisions in
the name of the script well let’s get
what are you looking at get the hell out
of here number 10 Eve takes over her
sister’s body
you’re not her released more than a
decade after parasite eve to the third
birthday reintroduced aya brea the
series protagonist in the most
convoluted way possible seeking to
destroy the twisted the Anisha suffering
aya travels through time by transferring
her consciousness and to other people
so how did these monsters come into
being
well the protagonists sister Eve took
without a frame to call home
Aya’s consciousness created a fragment
through time inadvertently leading to
the creation of the twisted also players
learned that they have been unwittingly
controlling Eve throughout the entire
campaign how do you people learned
nothing from marty mcfly leave the
space-time continuum
alone
number nine Jin’s police station mission
Dead Island the girl Jin went to share
food with them Joseph went with her and
I fear for both of them can you bring
them back good intentions amount to
nothing in a post-apocalyptic world
populated by zombies and savage
survivors determined to help everyone on
the island Jin gives the middle finger
to common sense and chooses to deliver
supplies to the hostile rascal gang who
had taken over the police station
shocking absolutely no-one the operation
falls apart almost instantly Jin is
captured and the player-character has to
rescue the good samaritan she got it in
your head to go to the police station to
give them supplies to to make matters
even worse Jin’s naive decision leads to
the death of Joseph a totally innocent
man ah the wheels of justice at work I’m
just trying to help I tracked number
eight ELISA goes home clock tower three
I know that what I am saying will make
no sense to you
but please do as I tell you and hide as
quickly as you can at one point or
another most teenagers rebel against
their parents though not quite in the
same stupid vein as ELISA while living
at a boarding school ELISA receives a
letter from her mother
urging her to go into hiding until their
15th birthday which is only a couple of
days away hashtag not strange at all
understandably alarmed by the message
ELISA decides that the logical next step
is to completely ignore the letters
this eventually leads to her being
chased through time by serial killers
while the mysterious dark gentleman
attempts to use Alice’s heart to achieve
immortality C should have listened to
your mother’s nonsensical
out-of-the-blue no explanation creepy
letter she was wrong she won’t be coming
back at all number seven genevieve
reopens the origin facility fear first
encounter assault recon hello who are
you people
guide alright so sure I’m having a hell
of a time if you’ve got a horror game
you can bet that arrogant scientists and
corrupt businesses aren’t far behind
born with incredible psychic powers Alma
Wade is relentlessly experimented upon
by the Armagh cham technology
corporation who even impregnate her to
try and create super soldiers while she
was a child might be ad urge to leave
the planet rising eventually they
recognized that the psychics powers were
beyond control atc then shut down the
origin facility and left Alma’s corpse
to rot and marinade and moroseness for
two decades life was peaceful and to the
company’s president Genevieve Aristide
ignored any and all warnings instead
choosing to reopen the facility to start
from scratch it should go without saying
but Alma was not amused number six
studying the marker dead space see what
kinda Noah’s it was the government’s
mess to begin with this whole planet is
one big experiment following an era
defined by war and environmental
catastrophes earth was essentially
stripped of its resources
so basically 2018 anywho this allowed
the earth government colonial alliance
to seize control of most national
jurisdictions desperate to discover a
new power source the organization began
to experiment on markers an alien device
with a nasty habit of driving people
using agus seven as a planet-sized
testing ground the earth government
eventually succeeded in deciphering the
markers secrets leading to the birth of
the Necromorphs and causing most of the
events that transpired throughout the
first game do you want climate change
people cuz Necromorphs is how you get
number five Daniel pockets the orb
amnesia the Dark Descent it was waiting
for him enclosed in dark nothingness I
felt myself drawn to the mystic light if
you deliberately wiped your own memory
chances are your past self made some
fairly serious mistakes or you’ve just
lost so many times at Megaman that
wiping your memory is a better
alternative to a beaten-down self-esteem
awakening in a strange castle without
any memories Daniels only clue to the
truth was a self written note advising
him to kill the building’s baron go to
the inner sanctum find Alexander and
kill him over the course of the campaign
Daniel manages to piece together the
truth and surprise surprise it isn’t
pretty turns out that during an
archaeological expedition
Daniel discovered an alien orb and in
doing so summoned a sentient shadow very
eager to rip him a new one
Daniel’s solution seek refuge with Baron
Alexander who ended up wanting the orb
for himself and the bad decision hits
just keep on coming your former self
Daniel number four Leon and Claire split
up Resident Evil 2 let’s split up look
for any survivors and get out of here
just because something works on
scooby-doo does not mean it makes sense
due to resident evil 2 featuring a pair
of playable characters
Capcom needed to find a believable
excuse to split these badasses up a
rookie cop and a college student
searching for a family member
Leon and Claire parted ways almost
instantly to go search for survivors and
an escape route out of Raccoon City
surrounded by hundreds of zombies
numerous load screens and randomly
placed herbs of various colors splitting
up makes little to no sense but the game
needed Leon and Claire’s stories to
diverge so there you go
of course Leon’s fabulous hair is really
all the backup he needs I don’t think
I’ve introduced myself yet my name is
Leon
I’m with the RPD number 3 pranking Hana
until dawn don’t you guys think this is
a little come on she deserves it pranks
are all well and good at least until
someone tries to put it on YouTube
shout out to failarmy a choose your own
adventure game with a slasher twist it
begins as all great Horrors do with a
group of teenagers hanging out in a
cabin in the woods with the possibility
of nudity seeing an opportunity to be
total jerks the majority of the group
play a disgraceful prank on Hannah who
flees out of the cabin as a result
given the genre the woods are far from
the safest place to be and both siblings
soon find themselves meeting a rather
steep end number two James investigates
Silent Hill Silent Hill 2 Mary could you
really be in this town guilt and grief
can drive a person to make really
terrible decisions evident from when
James Sunderland received a letter
claiming to be from his deceased wife
apparently waiting for him in the town
of Silent Hill I’m alone there
in our special place rather than
investigating the authenticity of the
letter assembling a team of mercenaries
or better yet throwing it away
James decides to take the plunge and
head on over to Silent Hill taking into
account the fact that Mary died years
prior the dude must have been aware that
the letter might possibly not be real
but nope that paper from papyrus is just
too enticing thanks to his overwhelming
shame and inner torment manifesting
itself James spent most of his vacation
and Silent Hill trying to avoid the
rather persistent advances of a topless
pyramid head I know the truth now it’s
time to end its number one removing show
Dan’s ethical constraints System Shock
11:30 p.m.
hacker begins unauthorized entry into
the trioptimum corporate network playing
as a nameless hacker system shock boils
down to a boneheaded decision to remove
an omnipotent computer’s moral compass
caught hacking into a space station
owned by the trioptimum corporation our
hero has offered a way out by a corrupt
executive who needs the space stations
artificial intelligence to be hacked a
rogue artificial intelligence
Showdown lost her memory after coming to
an agreement the protagonist removes the
restrictions governing sho Dan’s
decision-making process and unwittingly
creates a super villain untethered by
any moral guidelines the AI becomes a
self-declared god and kills nearly
everyone in the station thus giving us a
glimpse into the year 2020
