10 Hidden Ways Video Games Punished You For BREAKING The Rules

8. A Gentleman Never Looks - Dishonored

Dishonored is a game set in a world based on Victorian England, aka the period when forgetting basic etiquette was equal to social suicide.

This may seem like an unrelated note, seeing as the game is about a supernatural steampunk assassin, but in reality, there is actually one instance when the game punishes you for indecency.

In between your missions to assassinate the city's corrupt leaders, you get to unwind at the loyalists' hideout in the Hound Pits Pub.

The location has many explorable areas, but with this said, you shouldn't look around too much, or else you will accidentally walk in on someone naked!

Yes, by peeking through one of the keyholes, you may rudely interrupt Callista's private bath time and then immediately get caught in the act.

The woman will angrily tell you to stop, at which point you will be given the option to turn away or disobey her demand and keep looking anyway.

If you go with the latter choice, the game will actually refuse to let you act like a creep. The screen will fade to black, and then you will get a game over screen describing how the rebellion ended because no one was willing to work with a creep like Corvo.

Well, can you blame them?
