8 Insane Things Video Games Asked Us To Do

5. Resident Evil 7 - Ignore The Obvious Act Of Breaking A Window

So, you (or, more accurately, some civilian called Ethan Winters) are trapped in a spooky old country house on the Louisiana bayou. Not only that, but some terrifying family called the Bakers are on the prowl and eager to bring your worst nightmares to life. If only this house had windows!

Wait, it does. Well, why doesn't Ethan simply use his hands, feet, a nearby axe, his trusty shotgun and other creature-stopping guns to his advantage and blast a hole in that there wall? It's insane to think that gamers were expected to overlook the simple act of opening a window and running away to get help completely. We get this is horror-game world, but come on.

Forget all about those windows, they're boarded up with some sort of impenetrable wood anyway. Even if you did attempt to shoot at one with your souped-up shotgun or burn through the wood with a flamethrower, it wouldn't work. For all the things Jack Baker and family did wrong, they should be commended for creating some sort of super-wood.
