8 Video Game Heroes That Refuse To Do What You Tell Them

When it comes to survival horror games, sometimes rational thinking is overridden and players and their protagonists end up making some pretty dumb decisions.

However, in most examples it's nothing that can't be fixed by the player steeling their nerves and thinking "maybe defecating myself and running shrieking into a room with only one exit wasn't the best idea".

Yet in the case of Travis Grady, the main protagonist from Silent Hill: Origins, we are presented with a situation so incredibly dumb that it's honestly shocking.

So we all know that Silent Hill is the last place anyone would want to end up, and likely the first thing we'd want to do if we found ourselves in the Fog Capital of the world is get the hell out of there, but not our Travis who despite witnessing a monster-infested hospital, wants to continue on his journey to check if a badly burned woman is still alive.

Now while this is admittedly noble, it's incredibly dumb. You've literally just seen monsters emerge from the nether and your response when asked to leave the hospital is a flat "no".

Even worse is when you resolve this point he continues to stick around, telling the player at every point when offered a clear exit to the town "Can't go that way"

YES YOU CAN, FRIEND, YOU'RE JUST BEING AN ARSE AND REFUSING.
