10 Cringeworthy Video Game Scenes That Made You Feel Dirty

7. The Awoken Cutscenes In Destiny

Okay, let's get this straight, this isn't a scene involving any nudity, sex or direct flirting, but it is incredibly awkward. About halfway through the main campaign in Destiny you are told to head to The Reef to speak to the Queen of the Awoken, who should know a thing or two about what you need to do next to save the solar system. When you arrive at The Reef, you are frogmarched in front of the throne and treated to one of the most awkward scenes ever put into gaming. The Queen and her ward are brother and sister, but there is enough sexual tension, quasi-dominance and general weirdness to make any gamer uncomfortable. The Queen's almost sultry presentation and display of power combined with the brother's submissive pandering to her will after filling the player character full of bluster is possibly the strangest thing on this list and definitely raises some questions no one really wants to hear the answer to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_Mo-1-iHKE
