Yet Another Stupid Death: Difference between revisions

* ThunderDome MUD is full of these, among them: trying to kill Justice, an invincible NPC integral to the game's court mechanic, drinking gasoline (it's stupid enough keeping gasoline in the same container type as your water), jumping a bike across a river and pausing, speedwalking through a desert known to be trap-infested, and attacking what appears without close examination to be 'a guy' who turns out to be a [[Terminator|well-known self-reviving killing machine]].

* A funny one from a [[Let's Play]] of ''[[Might and Magic]] VI''. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bti7TvgobVA#t=04m59s THE LAVA 'IS' INSTANT DEATH!] [[Crowning Moment of Funny|"This is why you can't have nice things!"]]

** One of the stupidest and most avoidable death traps happens early on in the game. In Boletaria Palace 1-1, there's an obvious pit in the floor surrounded by enemies. Nobody would DREAM of jumping into that, right? It's actually a very common occurrence due to the fact that there are swirly blue glowing things in the middle of the abyss. Countless players have thought that it was some sort of portal to another area, or that there was an item down below, only to step boldly in and turn themselves into a red stain at the bottom of the pit three stories below. YASD indeed.

** Same for ''[[Dark Souls]]''. Just because you've fought an enemy hundreds of times doesn't mean you can get sloppy.
