If you've played a Fallout or Elder Scrolls game for more than five minutes, chances are you've been very tempted to punch a kid in the face. Annoyingly, these children are invincible and anything you throw at them will simply bounce right off, likely in an attempt by Bethesda to halt any potential controversy right in its tracks. The newly released title 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:High on Life has absolutely no qualms about child murder though, and even pokes fun at Bethesda and the Fallout series in the process.
You may already be aware of this as it went viral on social media not too long ago, but around half an hour into High on Life players are given the opportunity to shoot a child called Slumsley. This child does not have an invisible shield around them and will just die if you pull the trigger, something that your own gun is hesitant to let you do. Keep pulling the trigger and your gun will finally relent, letting you dome Slumsley and be on yo༒ur merry way.
High on Life even goes one step further and actually rewards you for the kill with an achievement that is the least subtle nod to another video game franchise you're ever going to see (thanks ). The name of the achievement is a very obvious reference to the invincible children found throughout the Fallout series.
If you're one of the older Fallout fans out there, you'll know that the series actually has a fairly controversial history surrounding child murder, especially regarding the game's release in Europe. Both Fallout 1 and 2 do actually let you kill children despite High on Life's little jab, although only in the US release. It was meant to be the same case for the European version, yet all children from both games had to be removed as the original was denied release across the continent, even with an M rating and massive negative impact on the character in game.
Obviously, the moment Bethesda acquired the rights to the Fallout series in 2007 and attempted to make the series more mainstream with Fallout 3, the child killing was removed entirely. We now have to put with irritating children calling us names and laughing at us, with nothing we can do to stop it. All we can do is try to rise above it like the grown up we are or, if you're playing High on Life, shoot them in the face.
If you're itching to commit a horrible act of child murder with zero consequences, High on Life is available on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and is also currently available to download on Xbox Game Pass for existing users. All of you unfortunate PlayStation owners out there will have to go take out your frustration on a bunch of Mole Rats or something.
