10 Video Game Warnings You Totally Ignored

Every creation made by Failbetter Games contains one moment in the game where you can make a monumentally catastrophic decision, but the game is begging you not to. This is perhaps best known in Sunless Sea, where you are politely told "Do Not Do This" in reference to an option to eat your crew at the Kingeater's Castle.

But this had actually already happened in much more dramatic fashion in the previous instalment in this series, known as Fallen London.

While there are a variety of innocuous - if deeply strange - things you can do in Fallen London, players eventually discover the most dangerous part of the game. This comes from a quest line known as seeking Mr. Eaten's Name, referring to a god who was devoured and thus exists in a strange sort of state to say the least.

Not only can following this path reduce the skills you have built up until this point - even halving them with some of the options you take - but it'll also take every item, connection, and good thing you basically ever gathered, if not downright kill you.

The funniest part is that you're warned every step along the way that this is only going to lead to your own downfall - a warning you repeatedly ignore if you decide to follow it anyways.
