10 More Video Games That Punished You For Trying To Be Cool

10. Try Avoiding Kidnapping In A Plane & Get Caught Anyway - Far Cry 5

The kidnapping mechanic in Far Cry 5 sure is annoying, right?

Periodically throughout the game, players will be ambushed by Jacob Seed's cultists known as The Chosen, who will shoot them with a tranq dart. When the player wakes up, they'll need to find a way to escape.

It's fine the first and maybe second instance it happens, but once you're repeating this nonsense for the fifth or sixth time, it's exasperating.

And so players have understandably attempted to find creative ways to avoid taking a dart in the leg, like encasing themselves in something that the Capture Party's dart simply can't penetrate.

Some players figured that if they were in a plane at the time, there was no freakin' way the dart would be able to hit them, right?

Wrong.

Even if you're in the air, your screen will still go blurry and you'll wake up kidnapped, having been inexplicably tranquilised while inside a moving tin can thousands of feet in the sky. Absolutely ridiculous.
