10 Truly Horrible Things Video Games Made You Do
10. Stitching Your Dog Bite In The Walking Dead
Telltale Games' The Walking Dead series is at the forefront of video game storytelling, with compelling characters and emotionally wrenching moments to torment pain-hungry players.
This particular moment comes from the start of the game's second season, when adorable escort quest subject Clementine is forced to forge across the zombie-choked landscape on her own.
Having been bitten by a starving dog, Clementine is shut up in a tool shed while a group of survivors decide what to do with her. She is forced to treat her arm wound by herself, and it's a punishing, agonising scene. She cleans and sews up the bite wound in response to the player's inputs, grimacing and crying out with pain all the while.
In a series full of carnage and brutality, it's sharing the experience of this frightened girl in such pain that stays with the player the longest. And it's the player who does this to her, because The Walking Dead wants you to suffer.
