10 Unwritten Rules Of Gaming Everyone Knows

2. Don’t Kill The Chickens

Fool us once, shame on you, fool us twice, shame on us. Gamers only have to face the retribution of invulnerable multiplying murder chickens once before they leave well enough alone and keep the sharp objects well away from the poultry.

I ran into this the other day playing Assassin’s Creed: Origins where I’d happily execute hippos and crocodiles but I came across a chicken and my gamer brain said, “Don’t do it” and I let him live another day. Or he let me live.

This might not be a gamer rule everyone knows but if you know you really know, and you’ve learned there’s just nothing to be gained in hassling the chickens. Definitely not the chickens of Hyrule.
