    If disembodied voices count, there are several endings in The Stanley Parable in which the Narrator is pretty done with you, and the Ultra Deluxe version adds even more scenarios.
    Villagers in the Animal Crossing series can get annoyed with you if you talk to them too much, and that's to say nothing of hitting them too much with a net. And, of course, in the older games, there's Mr. Resetti, who would pop up to scold or yell at you whenever you come back from the unit having been powered down without you having saved first... even if it's by accident or by outside forces like the power going out.

    I just wanna add my favorite bit from The Stanley Parable. I know there's a LOT of ways to annoy the narrator in that game but the best, in my opinion, has to be the closet. If you go in there, stay in there, go in there again after he reboots you, stay in there some more, and keep rinse/repeating eventually he's just had enough of your shenanigans and from that point and ever after the closet is just straight up nailed shut. I laughed my ass off for twenty minutes after finding that out.

    There's a weird circular logic here. Most of these require repeated interaction from the player, so someone programmed it based the expectation that players would irritate the NPCs repeatedly, but if they didn't program repeated interactions with the NPC then players wouldn't irritate the NPCs to test the range of reactions. Which came first, the irritation or the reaction?

    • @leoparathesweekgeeky7244
      @leoparathesweekgeeky7244 Před 2 lety +51

      It probably started from someone trying to make the game more "realistic" and have the character had unique dialogue. Undoubtedly, gamers who enjoy lore hunting in games started clicking npc repeatedly to make sure they had all the dialogue and this behavior was noticed leading a developer to put these type of responses in their game.

    • @KozKalanndok

      It might have been started by Blizzard in Warcraft (2 I think). Most prominent there the orcisch peons. "Grunt?" - "Zug-zug" - "sumthin need doin?" - "STOP POKING ME!".
      Ymiron is showing just the dialoge he has been programmed to give when getting "annoyed". However basicly every single NPC in any Blizzard game does have such "annoyed" lines written for. Usually it starts at the sixth click in succession and usually there are several "annoyed" lines for each NPC.

      In RPGs it is common to speak to NPCs a lot and in earlier RPGs with bad translations this would result in players talking to the wrong NPC 10+ times. The NPC obviously makes no sense but the translation was botched... but because you don't know it is botched you do it.
      It likely stems from that or something similar being played for laughs.

      The first game I ever made had a system where if a player interacted with the tutorial AI exactly 288 times, then the game would "turn off" (not really turns off it just goes black) and then being a jokester, I programed my game to "reboot" but the music is reversed and the game is now tinted red and squishing noises persist as the character progresses. when the player reaches the final boss, Ren (who was a goldfish, designed to be pathetically easy) Ren appears frightened and immediately retreats and the game continues as though Ren were killed. The player enters the reward room and the music completely stops. the event functions that normally end the game cease function and if the player remains in the room for a countdown of 8 minutes and 48 seconds, then Ren would return, covered in black sludge and begging the player to leave. if player didn't react by retreating to the door, ren would laugh maniacally and charge the player. the screen was programed to go black and power the game off, but I was too dumb to program that as I had no clue how to change the event close from functioning when the close tab button is pressed into being an event that occurs if entity a is overlapping entity b. so instead, I made the character freeze in place and set an event where the screen would flash meaningless jumbles of letters for single frames every 20 frames. after the fourth loop, the event was programed to end (I say was because It never ended at the same time. I think its because I used a global variable rather than a local one) at which point a white figure would occupy the center of the screen. it starts a crying sound and then the game resets fully.
      Sadly, I got a failing grade on the project as my teacher thought the code was excessive and she never figured out that if she passes 288 interactions that the event will not occur.
      I was sad and opted to never take Coding again!

    Aww poor Ellen, having to annoy Eevee, to get that reaction! I grabbed my Eevee plushy, and was hugging it the whole time. Yep, even Eevee has limits!

    MDK2. While playing as Dr. Hawkins in the beginning, you have to use the restroom. If you try to leave the restroom without washing your hands, the ship's AI will scold you and tell you wash your hands. If you refuse and try to leave, the AI will warn you a few more times before launching you out of the ship.

    Remember a Monk in Spyro, that after you speak with for an annoying amount of tries, he gets so annoyed, he won't answer anymore to the Talk button
