10 Video Game Moments That Made Everyone Uncomfortable

3. Final Fantasy VII - The HoneyBee Inn

The Don Corneo part of Final Fantasy VII is an odd flow breaker. Whilst to some it may be a lighthearted affair in the grand scheme of things, it's still a bit weird. That's not me being retroactively "woke", as an eleven year old me found it hilarious in 1997. Perhaps because I didn't know the implications at the time.

But aside from the crossdressing, or the forced sexual intentions from the Don, the strangest part of the whole scenario is the Group Room. For the unaware (both then and those who haven't played it now), the Group Room sounds pretty saucy, right? But it's not long until a bunch of bathing suit wearing burly men join you and ask you to bathe with them, before giving you some bikini briefs as a... reward.

Now, I'm not suggesting that bathing with other men is gross or wrong, so don't take this as a negative. Just that for a lot of players in an already weird part of the game, a mass bath with a lot of guys was an odd moment.
