Wildest Examples Of Plot Armor In Video Games

Okay, so as a gamer, I’ve noticed something kinda frustrating. Sometimes a game will build up all these rules and consequences, but then completely ignore them just to make the story go a certain way. Like, a character will survive something impossible – falling from space, getting blown up, you name it – or they’ll just magically come back to life so you can beat the final boss. It’s cool to see, sure, but it feels…off. It’s like the writers cared more about making something dramatic happen than making it actually make sense within the game’s world. I’ve collected some of the most head-scratching moments where logic just went out the window for the sake of the story.

Those sell for a ton of credits back in Speranza, so it’s worth keeping an eye out for.
