=== BurningDogFace provides examples of these tropes: ===
* [[A Good Name for a Rock Band]] - The Silencer, apparently.
* [[Always Save the Girl]] - Sometimes nay, but usually yay. More like always save ''everyone'' you like. Generally, BDF pushes for the merciful or less extreme option in any given choice-scenario.
{{quote|This is shown to be the case in the standard form when he is forced to choose between {{spoiler|ordering the hero's love interest to be executed or the leaders of the protest group that upset his brother, the king.}} While this was, technically, the evil choice, he didn't seem particularly happy about it. He even goes so far as to say "There's only one decision I can make."}}
* [[Big No]] - The shorter, repetitive, panicked variation seen [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlnVtsqNtvs here.]
* [[Black Comedy]] - Has his moments.
* [[Brick Joke]] - There's one near the end of the [[Portal 2]] Let's Play that you'll only get if played/watched the Let's Play for [[Dead Space 2]].
{{quote|'''Cave Johnson''': They say when life give's you lemons, make lemonade.
'''BDF''': Or a [[In Joke|lemon gun]]. }}
* [[Catch Phrase]] - Several.
{{quote|''"I Don't think s/he liked that."'' Whenever a particularly strong move against an enemy succeeds.
''"Ow! My organs/bones/organs and bones/body!"'' Whenever a particularly strong move against an enemy ''fails''.
Line 39:
''"Eat several dicks!"''
''"Sweet, sweet/nourishing bullets."'' Upon collecting much-needed ammo. }}
* [[Deadpan Snarker]] - On occasion.
* [[Determinator]]
* [[Genre Savvy]] - Pretty much a requirement for your average let's player, in particular there's the scene after narrowly avoiding being sucked out on a hull breach in [[Dead Space 2]]. It was red and flashy, ''ergo'' he knew he had to shoot it to not die.
* [[Heroic BSOD]] - The Cheshire Cat's death ''was'' quite the surprise.
* [[Hey, That's My Line!]] - To the [[Prince of Persia|Concubine]] when she asked the main character to dance.
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]] - During [[Dead Space 2]] while looking at a sign over a door in the hospital.
{{quote|"I've made that joke before... Intensive '''scare''' unit."}}
* [[Nice Guy]] - With enough of the [[Deadpan Snarker]] trope to keep it interesting.
** Even the ''death of the chicken'' in the opening credits of Fable saddens him.
* [[Nostalgia Level]] - The entirety of [[Alice: Madness Returns]] is this for him. He's breaking his "no Lping new games" rule since it's the long-awaited sequel to the first game he ever Let's Played
* [[Pre-Ass-Kicking One-Liner]] - ''"Let's dance."''
* [[Precision F-Strike]] -Seeing {{spoiler|[http://www.youtube.com/user/BurningDogFace#p/u/5/ScllGxQgoTE the Elementary school in VideoGame/DeadSpace2] after having to shoot up a bunch of small children-turned-zombies.}}
* [[Running Gag]] - ''"Ow! My organs!"''
* [[Sadistic Choice]] - Both played straight and subverted in [[Alpha Protocol]]. He had to cut out a large portion of one video since {{spoiler|he couldn't decide whether to save Madison or the museum, and eventually went for the museum.}} However when {{spoiler|Mina}} is captured later in the game he [[Always Save the Girl|doesn't even pause for a second]].
* [[Screw Destiny]] - In the LP for [[Alice: Madness Returns]].
{{quote|'''BDF:''' All of you can drown in a sea of dicks! [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|Alice deserves to be sane]]! }}
* [[Tempting Fate]]
Line 59:
''Two seconds later, aforementioned [[Mood Whiplash|cartoon sun]] drops from roof right in front of the PC''<br />
'''BDF''': ...Except Isaac, apparently. }}
* [[This Is Gonna Suck]] - He's usually right.
* [[Understatement]] - ''"Well, that was unfortunate"'', every time he dies. Usually graphically and brutally.
* [[Video Game Caring Potential]] - ''"I feel like [http://www.youtube.com/user/BurningDogFace#p/u/2/qXC3zKyHTb4 kind of an asshole,] I'm not gonna lie."''
** All of Burning Dog Faces videos have a bit of this. He dislikes a [[Downer Ending]] and appreciates a happy one. ''"You can't get to a happy ending unless you try for a happy ending"'' is one of his reasons for playing [[Dead Space 2]].In particular there's also this scene in his Let's Play of [[American McGee's Alice]] where he sounded [[Tear Jerker|genuinely hacked off]] at one character's death at the hands of the Red Queen ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-k1YZksqwk see here]).
** Apparently felt a little bad about {{spoiler|having to kill Nolan Stross}} in [[Dead Space 2]] as well. As he mentioned, that's the first time killing an actual ''person'' and it feels a little different to [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|stomping necromorph corpses]].
* [[Wham! Episode]]
** The last episode of his [[Prince of Persia]] playthrough.
