Well, arachnaphobia is a real thing that some people have. I'd say that an ironic love for bacon is worse.

Being annoyed by an ironic love of something besides gaming strikes me as even more insane, to be honest, OP.

I took the octopath less travelered,

And it made one-eighth the difference.
Still better than an ironic love of irony.

Especially when it's not actually ironic.

Irony is dead.

A friend of mine is legit terrified of spiders, and he gets freaked out and makes his wife finish sections of games that have creepy spider enemies/bosses. He never did play Skyrim or Dark Souls.

It sounds as if his fear of spiders protected him from two bad games.

See people like this freaking out I can understand, they obviously have legit arachnophobia, but people who have no problem seeing spiders in games or in movies etc that post stuff like "saw a spider in the shower, guess I need a new house" just need to stop trying so hard to be epic.

e. Torchlight 2 has a mod that replaces spider enemies with other mobs do other games have neat stuff like that?

There was a game called the baconing which was concentrated anti comedy. The developers of that should be executed

One time I was having a mondo gaming sesh when I had to go to the bathroom, I got and it turns out there's a spider on my arm that's been there for like, the past 10 minutes and I start freaking out a little bit. I then toss my cat into the room but is just stared at the wall for a while. I guess the moral of the story is, spiders are loving gross and creepy and you should never trust anything with the same amount of eyes and legs.
