15. That Bennett Foddy Reference - Just Cause 4

If you're yet to play the "Man-In-A-Pot-Trying-To-Climb-A-Mountain Simulator" that is Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, remedy that immediately.

If you have, then you know the bizarrely empowering message that comes from a game about when cheap video game bullsh*t makes you fail, and how Mr. Foddy himself crafted one of the best hidden gems of yesteryear.

Clearly Avalanche Studios were big fans, and if you venture to the right spot, you can play an "emulation" of the game as Rico Rodriguez. The rub lies in climbing over random objects with an axe that can easily bounce you off said objects and back to the beginning, and best of all, in a nod to Foddy's self-motivation one-liners, speech and musical choices, Just Cause 4 contains dialogue from the game's cast egging you on.
