10 Most Out-Of-Place Scenes In Video Games
10. The Laugh - Final Fantasy X
The Laughing Scene in Final Fantasy X is the stuff of legends. Being one of the oldest memes on the Internet, you've probably stumbled upon the infamous scene of Tidus' belly-laugh a bunch of times, even if you've never played the game.
Because of how forced and obnoxious Tidus' chuckles, it's regarded as among the cringiest moments in gaming history.
As hard as it is to believe, this moment is sillier when you understand the context. In the game, Tidus and his crew are travelling across Spira to stop a gargantuan beast called Sin from destroying the world.
Five minutes before the infamous scene, Tidus learns his father, who he believed to be dead, has bonded his essence with Sin. So, not only is his dad responsible for murdering countless people, Tidus has to kill his dad to save the planet
This revelation leaves Tidus so disillusioned, he falls into a depression. His ally, Yuna, tells him to laugh it off to avoid wallowing in self-pity.
So, there you have it. The reason why Tidus decides to pretend-laugh is because he just discovered his father is gigantic monster who's committing global genocide.
