10 Most Out Of Place Scenes In Gaming History

6. "Did Somebody Mention The Door To Darkness?" - Kingdom Hearts 2

Death Stranding

As a crossover with countless beloved Disney properties, the Kingdom Hearts games are relatively light-hearted for the most part, though do nevertheless take their wildly convoluted lore dead-seriously.

This results in a multitude of tonally jarring moments that come off much funnier than intended, perhaps most memorably in Kingdom Hearts 2 when King Mickey Mouse sneaks up on Sora and the assembled heroes and asks, "Say, fellas, did somebody mention the Door to Darkness?"

Everything about this scene is totally out of place and hilariously wrong: Mickey Mouse ever saying a line like this, his strangely menacing face when he appears in-frame, and even the ominous music that plays out for all of two seconds.

As soon as Sora and company realise it's Mickey, the scene's tone abruptly shifts to one of joy, in what's left fans dying of uncontrollable laughter ever since.
