Video games make DUMB choices.

Coney reacts to WatchMojo's "Top 20 STUPIDEST Decisions by Video Game Heroes" and realizes how silly game developers are when they put the protagonists in scenarios where they can just... not do.

[@ChristopherMoom]

I think having some form of song credits would be nice for the Coney Channel... these videos have really great music tastes that aren't shared, so here's my best attempt at addressing the issue 0:00: Karin's Theme - Street Fighter V 1:43: Goomba's Greedy Gala - Mario Party 4 8:01: Let's Try - Super Mario RPG (SNES) 10:04: Wario Puzzle 1 - Mario's Super Picross 14:23: Apollo Justice ~ A New Chapter of Trials! 2013 - Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies 15:36: ??? 18:55: ??? And, of course, the outro theme is "The Legendary Theme (Acoustic)" from Gitaroo Man (It's kinda weird that not even this song gets credited)

"Sakura left a review" is the funniest way to reference that

I'm pretty sure if James decided, _"y'know what... nah?"_ at the beginning of Silent Hill 2, he'd somehow wonder right back into the town. Once Silent Hill calls you, you're there until you learn your lesson, die, or both.

[@RAHRYE]

This narrator HATES saving wives/families

[@389OpiE]

That's toxic masculinity Everyone for themselves

[@yaboytony3028]

I think near the end he shows he doesn't. He says Joel is stupid because the narrator also knows he is stupid and he'll do the same

[@hmalba7864]

He also hates plots apparently, since the majority of these games just wouldn't happen if not for the dumb decisions

[@vdpt9911]

he even mentions ashley lol. its like 2000s forums never left us

[@bl4nk4shane]

Like Coney said, most of these choices are from the fact that love is the strongest emotion alive, and I think it's nice having that in our video games.

[@RobbieAudet]

(Edit: desire for love is slightly stronger that avoiding reasons for fear. love is something we want and seek pushes us to function and avoidance of inciting any type of fear response is essentially clinical depression with someone being in perpetual stasis if there is a lack of a love drive. forgot to actually state that when looking at them when at the most basic/primal perspective which is bad coz that was my fulcrum) Just adding on my own thoughts as well- I've always found both Fear and Love have essentially a 50/50 split in a vacuum. (Measuring emotions with any form of logical pathway is all we've got + also massive generalisation to say 50/50 as this is different for every human and fellow creature on earth capable of experiencing these emotions- let alone factoring in mental issues, environment, body chemistry etc.) But in terms of Love or Fear winning over one another in a vacuum? I always mark it down to Love being just that tiniest bit more powerful. Love is a nice thing to feel, and fear is an a bad thing to feel at the most basic level of simply existing and why humans are the most intelligent and emotional sentient beings alive. But yeah! Narratives in every single medium always function when applying either Fear or Love as the main instigator, but holy damn can they pop off if used with nuance, respect for the feelings, and understanding all factors and ramifications. A masterful story is rare, but is one of the very few ways self-reflection and self-improvement can actually be a pallatable pill to swallow. Singed, Xandar the Lying Alien

[@rubberwoody]

Coney is like seasoning you can sprinkle on bland content slop

[@fan.of.nintendo]

so true

[@WarrenValion]

I played the Remake of Shadow of the Colossus for the first time last month and it quickly became one my favorite games of all time. It is def still good. Also Dormin (the disembodied voice) straight up tells Wander that he will have to pay a heavy price for his wish and Wander says it doesn't matter, so it's def not a random stupid decision.

[@jimnicholls5215]

Stipulation, dont do a completion run. It sours the game real bad

[@mikeyaftony2464]

I never got the hate for Ashley at all. She's not on Leon's level, but she's still competent when push comes to shove, follows orders, and gets out of the way when she needs to.

[@RobbieAudet]

ngl when i read ashley and heard the praise for this mojo guy here, i thought ashley was the main/recognisable mojo narrator then i read leon a second later and i think its time for sleep now thanks i am a bit delirious actually

[@lucastran5583]

Every time Coney makes ReactMojo a part of me becomes stronger and more resilient towards the world

[@luckzdapro]

One of my favorite things about coney's channel is that he starts making a video about one subject, and then he suddenly finds something somehow more interesting halfway into the recording and that's just the rest of the video for a bit, which is the most satisfying thing ever for my adhd brain 🧠

[@ChristopherMoom]

What's the Ace Attorney song? There's no song credits in the video Edit: Found it, it's "Apollo Justice ~ A New Chapter of Trials! 2013" from Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies

[@alazoneia]

9:42 so a fun fact about that. In the American version of Megaman 7 specifically, Megaman does threaten Wily and loads his gun right in his face after the final battle. Wily does mention how he can't harm a human life and Megaman does put his arm down.

[@krio3060]

"Number 12 I FUCKING HATE SLIPPY"

[@VinGog7656]

Joel was told that the kid that he had been travelling with for nearly a year, someone he had gotten attached to in a fatherly way after losing his daughter to humans and not the zombies, was going to be dissected, she wasn't even going to be given a choice in the matter, to save cannibals, rapists, pedos, cults, slavers and different militias. He made the choice any father would make and saved his kid even Troy Baker(his VA) said that his perspective on the ending changed after he had a kid.

[@byrontheusurper6505]

RE7 does look rlly good, never got into any of these exept for 8 but I love that game

[@romram7984]

Edit: How can he blame Megaman for Wily getting away? He's a robot that has to follow the 3 rules of robotics. If anything Dr Light is at fault for not programming him to kill wily And even then, i cant blame the guy for not turning his son into a killer The narrator couldnt be bothered to google the rules of robotics is all I'm learning Yeah....that narrator doesnt like fun is all I'm learning. And man the Slippy hate is crazy I like him, and i especially like that him getting hit or not is an actual branching path. And idk, people find him anmoying but i just like having him along for the ride, he's there to equal out the snarky Falco

[@byrontheusurper6505]

To help out with the fnaf segmen: Mike (player character) is either working there to hunt his father (the murderer) down, or is working for his father depending on what you believe. Mike is also most likely the player character in fnaf 1-6

[@DusterDan35]

even back when fnaf 1 came out, we knew he had a reason to return after night 1. While we didn't know why back than, that was one of the mysteries.

[@Oli6906]

[@byrontheusurper6505]

I never played a lot of assassin's creed exept for origins, i love that game, but I've been pulling the assassin's creed magic the gathering cards and they are so fun I'm kinda getting into the franchise, I'm concidering getting one of the games now

[@MasterHand4444]

The reason night guards keep coming back in FNAF 1 is actually kinda explained in the most recent book / interactive novel, “The Week Before.” Won’t spoil it, partially because I don’t remember exactly what it was lol, but also because it’s genuinely a really fun and well written CYOA book. (Also scores of others can summarize it online better than I can lol)

[@matthewbartlett3442]

With all the 4 hour lore videos on FNAF and street fighter that coney watches I constantly forget he’s a father and husband

[@impishrunt]

Mojo guy after seeing an integral, character-driven moment whose consequences resound throughout the story, embodying the central themes of the game: ...Well I wouldn't do that.

[@Swing_Bonnie]

because why not self report my cringeness 2:13 , as usual in a franchise that there really isn't an "official" story, just a bunch a nerds fusing their headcannons together, there's like several dozen compelling reasons why the main character wants to stay at the restaurant for that long. The main one just simply being: you are just trying to find and kill your father after he second handedly cause your mutilation. Going to places he might have worked, investigating/tampering with the animatronics, etc.

[@mikeyaftony2464]

There is an official story People who say this are genuinely stupid

[@splish8869]

Coney prolly won’t see this, but as I shout into the void so someone may hear: the robots cannot harm or kill a human thing originated in a story from acclaimed science fiction author Isaac Asimov. They are a work of fiction that has influenced other fiction. A robot (obv shouldn’t but) absolutely could kill a human

[@kashino55archive94]

That's totally fair, although I'm pretty sure it's established in-universe that Mega Man isn't supposed to be able to kill people

You should put your stream schedule in the description of ur stream uploads/edits like this

[@StarkMaximum]

I always hate these lists about "dumb choices characters make" because there's only ever two types of entry: either "nah, I'd win"-ass entries where the dumb decision is basically "not just leaving in a horror game" or "not just getting over your neuroses where it comes off as extremely self-aggrandizing, and then there's the "i am very smart" entries where the "dumb decision" s basically "just don't do the thing that leads to a story, dumbass". Why did this character lie to someone they care about? Why did this character continue to fall for an obvious trick? Why didn't this character just solve the problem? Because that's not how narratives work, dumbfuck, characters need to make mistakes for a story to thrive. If you just "do the right thing" every time most stories end after four pages with "and then the hero turned around and went home".
