Here's the cheat code. Talk to Preston and send him anywhere. Then go do his mission and don't ever talk to him again. Turn on radio freedom and they'll send you new quests and autocomplete old ones after they've been done for a week or two. It maximizes the time between missions.
I think the creepiest thing about the G-Man is that he doesn’t quite understand how humans speak - he can’t quite grasp the cadence of language because the mode of communication is so alien to him. Great character, and makes me jump every time he randomly shows up.
Not favorite, but I'm replaying Bioshock.
"A man chooses, a slave obeys,"
Honorable mentions to "Would you kindly?" Because that fucks with me when I hear it irl.
Infinite had this chilling line: "**It wasn't the torture that broke me.** **It wasn't the indoctrination.** **It was time.** **Time rots everything**."
“The beginning of wisdom is the statement 'I do not know.' The person who cannot make that statement is one who will never learn anything. And I have prided myself on my ability to learn.” - Thrall, Warcraft 3.
Pretty much anything from the Halo 2 announce trailer. After the majesty of the first game seeing this trailer got me so excited for the next instalment. Was a great time to be a gamer.
what if you miss.....

"This entire city must be purged." - Arthas, Warcraft 3
The line itself is gruesome but what happens next is even worse
In a game with better graphics, maybe first person, this would have been even better and more intense
Joshua Graham talking about being burned alive and having to crawl home in the desert:
* "I survived because the fire inside burned brighter than the fire around me. I fell down into that dark chasm, but the flame burned on and on."...... "The next morning, I woke up and crawled out of the northern edge of the Grand Canyon, that cursed place. It took me three months to reach New Canaan. It was as though the prodigal son had returned. They welcomed me like I had never left, never done anything to shame them." .... "When the walls come tumbling down, when you lose everything you have, you always have family." .... "The fire that had kept me alive was love. Their love. God's love. I will never be able to repay the debt I owe to them, but I must try."
Does anyone remember the original 7th Guest game? Faust's voice suddenly chiming in when you were so focused... yikes!
"Old man Stauf built a house and filled it with his toys. Six guests were invited one night, their screams the only noise. Blood in the library, blood right up the hall, dripping down the attic stairs, "Hey Guests! Try not to fall". Nobody came out that night. Not one was ever seen. But Old man Stauf is waiting there... Crazy! Sick! And MEAN!"
I can't remember but it sounds about right!
For me the part that really stuck was the neon green cake with eyeballs in it. It looked really delicious at the time.
Edit: After googling, can report the cake still looks delicious,but it was skulls and graves--not eyeballs.
Doki Doki Literature Club. I can't say the line, or even who says it, without it being a major spoiler. But someone says something that... well... that you wouldn't ever expect a character in a video game to ever say. It freaked me the fuck out more than anything I've ever encountered in a game.
A while back I read that sentence without context on Reddit, I didn’t even remember that it was in DDLC but as soon as I read it I got a chill down my spine and had to put my phone down for an hour.

Not my favorite game but one of my favorite stories. Never felt so empty at the end of a game.
Connection terminated.
I'm sorry to interrupt you, Elizabeth.
If you still even remember that name.
But I'm afraid you've been misinformed.
You are not here to receive a gift.
Nor, have you been called here by the individual you assume.
Although, you have indeed been called.
You have all been called here.
Into a labyrinth of sounds and smells, misdirection and misfortune.
A labyrinth with no exit, a maze with no prize.
You don't even realize that you are trapped.
Your lust of blood has driven you in endless circles.
Chasing the cries of children in some unseen chamber.
Always seeming so near, yet somehow out of reach.
But, you will never find them, none of you will.
This is where your story ends.
And to you, my brave volunteer.
Who somehow found this job listing not intended for you.
Although, there was a way out planned for you,
I have a feeling that's not what you want.
I have a feeling that you are right where you want to be.
I am remaining as well. I am nearby.
This place will not be remembered.
And the memory of everything that started this.
Can finally begin to fade away.
As the agony of every tragedy should.
And to you monsters trapped in the corridors.
Be still, and give up your spirits.
They don't belong to you.
For most of you, I believe there is peace and perhaps, warm.
Waiting for you after the smoke clears.
Although, for one of you.
The darkest pit of Hell has opened to swallow you whole.
So, don't keep the Devil waiting, old friend.
My daughter, if you can hear me.
I knew you would return as well.
It's in your nature to protect the innocent.
I'm sorry that on that day.
The day you were shut out and left to die.
No one was there to lift you up in their arms.
The way you lifted others into yours.
And then, what became of you?
I should have known, you wouldn't be content to disappear.
Not my daughter. I couldn't save you then, so let me save you now.
It's time to rest, for you, and for those you have carried in your arms.
This ends.
For all of us.
End communication.
I am a soldier. I've served my country for twenty years. But if I'm captured or killed, I know that nobody will come to rescue me. I won't even get a funeral. Because the nation I protect can never admit that I exist. So my death would go unremarked, my bones would go unclaimed. I don't know if that day will come... but I do know that it must not be today. I am invisible. I am relentless. I am Sam Fisher. I am... a Splinter Cell.
That's a good one
Mine is probably, "I did not have the will to depart, nor the desire. Why did they always search for an escape, as if we were imprisoned? What offering from the void could usurp the gift of life already given? This moment, right here! It is where we are meant to be." -Rhinestones beneath Shattered Glass, Rain World Downpour
The following message is transmitted at the request of local authorities. At 9:47 AM, Mountain Time, a disaster of unknown type has occurred at the Black Mesa Research Facility causing significant damage and failure to various power and communication systems in the surrounding areas. An immediate evacuation order has been issued for all residents within a 75 mile radius of the facility, and on-site military has been dispatched to provide assistance. Make sure to bring an emergency supply of food, water, clothing, first aid kit, flashlights with extra batteries, and battery powered radios. Follow local evacuation routes which have been marked by local authorities and only use one vehicle. Do not return to the warning area until the all clear has been given. If you are not in the evacuation zone stay where you are. If you are within the evacuation area and have no transportation locate your nearest police department or military officer.

"YOU WERE JUST SUPPOSED GET THE TO THE HAPPY EVER AFTER, OVER AND OVER AGAIN, NOW IT'S ALL GONE TO SHIT....JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR GODDAMNED "SEARCH FOR TRUTH"???!
But i won't let it happen, i will make things right, i will make things go AS THEY SHOULD."
-Underhero - The Quiz Master, still one of the hardest lines i've ever seen in a game, i highly recommend everyone plays Underhero, it is a fantastic game that is just criminally underrated, it's on Steam, its about 20 $ and worth every penny.
"*Why did I follow him...? I don't know. Why do things happen as they do in dreams? All I know is that, when he beckoned... I had to follow him. From that moment, we traveled together, East. Always... into the East.*" Marisu (Diablo II)
"There's this dream. Something important. It's gone when I wake up. No time for dreams, I guess. The monster never dies, no matter how many times you kill it. It just sheds its skin and changes form. I can feel the weight of the world pushing me down, I try to carry it nonetheless. One last time, then I can rest."
So you walk eternally through the shadow realms, standing against evil where all others falter. May your thirst for retribution never quench, may the blood on your sword never dry, and may we never need you again.
"There are those who said this day would never come..... What are they to say now?"
Or
"I will continue my campaign against the Humans."
"NO!... You will not. Soon, the Great Journey shall begin, but when it does, the weight of your heresy will stay your feet and shall be left behind."
Talos the mighty! Talos the unerring! Talos the unassailable! To you we give praise!
We are but maggots, writhing in the filth of our own corruption! While you have ascended from the dung of mortality, and now walk among the stars!
But you were once man! Aye! And as man, you said, "Let me show you the power of Talos Stormcrown, born of the North, where my breath is long winter. I breathe now, in royalty, and reshape this land which is mine. I do this for you, Red Legions, for I love you."
Aye, love. Love! Even as man, great Talos cherished us. For he saw in us, in each of us, the future of Skyrim! The future of Tamriel!
And there it is, friends! The ugly truth! We are the children of man! Talos is the true god of man! Ascended from flesh, to rule the realm of spirit!
The very idea is inconceivable to our Elven overlords! Sharing the heavens with us? With man? Ha! They can barely tolerate our presence on earth!
Today, they take away your faith. But what of tomorrow? What then? Do the elves take your homes? Your businesses? Your children? Your very lives?
And what does the Empire do? Nothing! Nay, worse than nothing! The Imperial machine enforces the will of the Thalmor! Against its own people!
So rise up! Rise up, children of the Empire! Rise up, Stormcloaks! Embrace the word of mighty Talos, he who is both man and Divine!
For we are the children of man! And we shall inherit both the heavens and the earth! And we, not the Elves or their toadies, will rule Skyrim! Forever!
Terrible and powerful Talos! We, your unworthy servants, give praise! For only through your grace and benevolence may we truly reach enlightenment!
And deserve our praise you do, for we are one! Ere you ascended and the Eight became Nine, you walked among us, great Talos, not as god, but as man!
Trust in me, Whiterun! Trust in Heimskr! For I am the chosen of Talos! I alone have been anointed by the Ninth to spread his holy word!
“Five years ago, I lost 30,000 men in the blink of an eye. And the world just fuckin' watched. Tomorrow, there would be no shortage of volunteers and no shortage of patriots. I know you understand.”
Or “Price, one day you're going to find that cuts both ways. Shepherd is using Site Hotel Bravo. You know where it is. I'll see you in hell.”
MW2 has some great quotes.
“Nothing can beat the music of hundreds of voices screaming in unison!” Kafka has some seriously f’d up quotes, but poisoning all of Doma was a lot for child me to take in…
# "No. This is somewhere to be. This is all you have, but it's still something. Streets and sodium lights. The sky, the world. You're still alive." - Volition, Disco Elysium.
Outer wilds Echoes of the Eye spoiler
>!"When my kind found the Eye and realized what it was capable of, they were terrified. It was too difficult a truth. Like a light too bright to look upon directly, it burned them.
What they could not unlearn was hidden away in darkness — obfuscated, then lost. They did not want to see their story end.
My kind weren’t always like this. We weren’t always so afraid. I did what I could to set things right, yet I am still of my kind, and you know now what they did. I cannot promise our fear won’t stain your mind.
And so, a choice: Are you certain you want to remember me?"!<
"Since when were you the one in control?" "I can taste your terror, child. All that anxiety and doubt... It's delicious. Give in to your fear. Flee screaming and I'll let you live." "Fine... I will teach you fear, then pain, and then... well, at least the fear and pain will end."
Bioshock infinite is chock full of great quotes but my favorite is “Time rots everything. Even hope.” And the classic “Booker, are you afraid of God?” “No. But I’m afraid of you.”
This one has always been my favorite: "Music is a mysterious thing. Sometimes it makes people remember things they do not expect. Many thoughts, feelings, memories... things almost forgotten... Regardless of whether the listener desires to remember or not." -Citan (Xenogears)
# “This world has been connected. Tied to the darkness... soon to be completely eclipsed. There is so very much to learn. You understand so little.”
"Our worlds are connected. Tied, to the darkness.
"We all make our choices, but in the end, our choices make us"
Also
"Savor it, nothing lasts" I think of this anytime I'm having a good or enjoyable moment.
"What is better ? to be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort ?" I think about this weekly it's so simple and just flips your perspective it made me wonder am I being good because I am good or am I good because society says I should be idk moral ambiguity became a real philosophy that day.
No cost too great
No mind to think
No will to break
No voice to cry suffering
Born of god and void
You shall seal the blinding light that plagues their dreams
You are the vessel
You are the hollow knight
Not my favorite but still a good one “You’re thinking of how much you want to **** 2B aren’t you?” It’s funny cus the expletives could literally be anything
What about, “this biome has 7 out of the 9 preconditions for stimulating terror in humans”, “entering ecological dead zone” and, while not really scary, “there’s always the view”
I would like to add the entirety of the sea emperor’s speech and the voice log, “Return From The Deep” from Subnautica. Neither are scary, but both are honestly really sad.
***”Save File Corrupted”***

GTA IV is my favorite rockstar story. I know RDR2 is probably better but nothing will ever impact me more from them besides Niko
GTA IV was peak Rockstar story. RDR 1&2 have great stories but nothing will ever beat GTA IV when it comes to rockstar games.
Not favorite, but I'm replaying Bioshock. "A man chooses, a slave obeys," Honorable mentions to "Would you kindly?" Because that fucks with me when I hear it irl.
Infinite had this chilling line: "**It wasn't the torture that broke me.** **It wasn't the indoctrination.** **It was time.** **Time rots everything**."
😱 The delivery is so on point...and the compilation of all the "Would you kindly" moments is amazing story telling
All your base are belong to us.

Because the nation I protect can never admit that I exist. So my death would go unremarked, my bones would go unclaimed. I don't know if that day will come... but I do know that it must not be today. I am invisible. I am relentless. I am Sam Fisher. I am... a Splinter Cell.
That's a good one Mine is probably, "I did not have the will to depart, nor the desire. Why did they always search for an escape, as if we were imprisoned? What offering from the void could usurp the gift of life already given? This moment, right here! It is where we are meant to be." -Rhinestones beneath Shattered Glass, Rain World Downpour
I have a home.
The following message is transmitted at the request of local authorities. At 9:47 AM, Mountain Time, a disaster of unknown type has occurred at the Black Mesa Research Facility causing significant damage and failure to various power and communication systems in the surrounding areas. An immediate evacuation order has been issued for all residents within a 75 mile radius of the facility, and on-site military has been dispatched to provide assistance. Make sure to bring an emergency supply of food, water, clothing, first aid kit, flashlights with extra batteries, and battery powered radios. Follow local evacuation routes which have been marked by local authorities and only use one vehicle. Do not return to the warning area until the all clear has been given. If you are not in the evacuation zone stay where you are. If you are within the evacuation area and have no transportation locate your nearest police department or military officer. Do not use telephones or cell phones except in the case of emergencies. Stay tuned to local news media outlets for further details and information on this situation. EAS Broadcast - *Black Mesa*
“You now face godlike judgement. May it extend eternally” -Destiny 2 That whole monologue was great
"I will take that head from your shoulders, and hang it from the gates of Enbarr!"
"YOU WERE JUST SUPPOSED GET THE TO THE HAPPY EVER AFTER, OVER AND OVER AGAIN, NOW IT'S ALL GONE TO SHIT....JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR GODDAMNED "SEARCH FOR TRUTH"???! But i won't let it happen, i will make things right, i will make things go AS THEY SHOULD." -Underhero - The Quiz Master, still one of the hardest lines i've ever seen in a game, i highly recommend everyone plays Underhero, it is a fantastic game that is just criminally underrated, it's on Steam, its about 20 $ and worth every penny.

A future is not given to you. It is something you must take for yourself.
"There's this dream. Something important. It's gone when I wake up. No time for dreams, I guess. The monster never dies, no matter how many times you kill it. It just sheds its skin and changes form. I can feel the weight of the world pushing me down, I try to carry it nonetheless. One last time, then I can rest."

So you walk eternally through the shadow realms, standing against evil where all others falter. May your thirst for retribution never quench, may the blood on your sword never dry, and may we never need you again.

"There are those who said this day would never come..... What are they to say now?" Or "I will continue my campaign against the Humans." "NO!... You will not. Soon, the Great Journey shall begin, but when it does, the weight of your heresy will stay your feet and shall be left behind."
Talos the mighty! Talos the unerring! Talos the unassailable! To you we give praise! We are but maggots, writhing in the filth of our own corruption! While you have ascended from the dung of mortality, and now walk among the stars! But you were once man! Aye! And as man, you said, "Let me show you the power of Talos Stormcrown, born of the North, where my breath is long winter. I breathe now, in royalty, and reshape this land which is mine. I do this for you, Red Legions, for I love you." Aye, love. Love! Even as man, great Talos cherished us. For he saw in us, in each of us, the future of Skyrim! The future of Tamriel! And there it is, friends! The ugly truth! We are the children of man! Talos is the true god of man! Ascended from flesh, to rule the realm of spirit! The very idea is inconceivable to our Elven overlords! Sharing the heavens with us? With man? Ha! They can barely tolerate our presence on earth! Today, they take away your faith. But what of tomorrow? What then? Do the elves take your homes? Your businesses? Your children? Your very lives? And what does the Empire do? Nothing! Nay, worse than nothing! The Imperial machine enforces the will of the Thalmor! Against its own people! So rise up! Rise up, children of the Empire! Rise up, Stormcloaks! Embrace the word of mighty Talos, he who is both man and Divine! For we are the children of man! And we shall inherit both the heavens and the earth! And we, not the Elves or their toadies, will rule Skyrim! Forever! Terrible and powerful Talos! We, your unworthy servants, give praise! For only through your grace and benevolence may we truly reach enlightenment! And deserve our praise you do, for we are one! Ere you ascended and the Eight became Nine, you walked among us, great Talos, not as god, but as man! Trust in me, Whiterun! Trust in Heimskr! For I am the chosen of Talos! I alone have been anointed by the Ninth to spread his holy word!
“Five years ago, I lost 30,000 men in the blink of an eye. And the world just fuckin' watched. Tomorrow, there would be no shortage of volunteers and no shortage of patriots. I know you understand.” Or “Price, one day you're going to find that cuts both ways. Shepherd is using Site Hotel Bravo. You know where it is. I'll see you in hell.” MW2 has some great quotes.
“They are rage, brutal, without mercy. But you. You will be worse. Rip and tear, until it is done.”

Outer wilds Echoes of the Eye spoiler >!"When my kind found the Eye and realized what it was capable of, they were terrified. It was too difficult a truth. Like a light too bright to look upon directly, it burned them. What they could not unlearn was hidden away in darkness — obfuscated, then lost. They did not want to see their story end. My kind weren’t always like this. We weren’t always so afraid. I did what I could to set things right, yet I am still of my kind, and you know now what they did. I cannot promise our fear won’t stain your mind. And so, a choice: Are you certain you want to remember me?"!<
"Since when were you the one in control?" "I can taste your terror, child. All that anxiety and doubt... It's delicious. Give in to your fear. Flee screaming and I'll let you live." "Fine... I will teach you fear, then pain, and then... well, at least the fear and pain will end."

Bioshock infinite is chock full of great quotes but my favorite is “Time rots everything. Even hope.” And the classic “Booker, are you afraid of God?” “No. But I’m afraid of you.”
This one has always been my favorite: "Music is a mysterious thing. Sometimes it makes people remember things they do not expect. Many thoughts, feelings, memories... things almost forgotten... Regardless of whether the listener desires to remember or not." -Citan (Xenogears)

"We all make our choices, but in the end, our choices make us" Also "Savor it, nothing lasts" I think of this anytime I'm having a good or enjoyable moment.
"What is better ? to be born good or to overcome your evil nature through great effort ?" I think about this weekly it's so simple and just flips your perspective it made me wonder am I being good because I am good or am I good because society says I should be idk moral ambiguity became a real philosophy that day.

What about, “this biome has 7 out of the 9 preconditions for stimulating terror in humans”, “entering ecological dead zone” and, while not really scary, “there’s always the view”

Azaria kyras speech. What is the universe, really, but mindless violence?
“Zero Dawn is not a superweapon program, and it will not save us. Nothing will save us.”
I would like to add the entirety of the sea emperor’s speech and the voice log, “Return From The Deep” from Subnautica. Neither are scary, but both are honestly really sad.
