Funny Memes That Exemplify Ridiculous Video Game Logic

The internal logic and physics of video games are often hilariously absurd, like when you're walking through a forest and suddenly a tiny stick somehow completely obstructs your path, forcing you to traverse a treacherous mountain just to get around it. Of course, in real life, you'd just kick the stick away or simply walk over it. But in a video game, the devs get to guide your every decision through a series of obstacles and predetermined options. And no matter how ridiculous those options might seem, you either have to fully embrace the absurdity or just stop playing.

We've collected some of our favorite memes that point out the ridiculousness of video game logic.
