One of the Serious Sam games had a special enemy that only occured if you pirated the game. A super-fast, immortal enemy that pursues you throughout the entire game.

So when people post a bug-report on the developer forums, they basically troll themselves.

Reminds me of this similar incident

In a Saints Row 4 DLC you have to get into Santa Claus' workshop, whose doors are blocked by a huge candy cane. You're supposed to go somewhere else and find another way in, but you can lick the candy cane and wear it away. You have to keep pressing the button, the progress bar rises excruciatingly slowly (but noticably), and the mission objective popups openly mock you for doing it this way. It takes about ten minutes, and to top it off the whole thing is accompanied by a brief sample of the most godawful ghastly slurping noises the VAs could manage playing over and over.

But the payoff when you finally get to the end... I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise:

Yeah I kind of want to play this game now. Only Monty Python could make that massive of a troll still be fun to play and amusing. This is the same group that declared that the sole purpose of The Meaning of Life was "to offend absolutely everybody." I don't think I've ever seen any entertainment group that had quite as much overt disdain for the people they were supposedly entertaining.

I think Cleese had a lot to do with that; one thing other Pythons said was that "he never wanted to be liked." You watch the guy in interviews and you can tell he just does not give a single poo poo.

This intrigued me wayyyy too much and I had to find an LP, this thing is hilarious

While you're answering the 150 question questionnaire, every so often it will just play annoying SFX and read out absolutely gibberish sentences while you're answering gibberish questions like "Ting bing ting ting?" 3:35ish is testing an erotica soundfile containing pills that make lobsters happy

Tetris part starts about 21 minutes lmao

I haven't played WoW in about 8 years but i still remember the "WHERE IS MANKIRKS WIFE" that was a constant presence in the chat there.

Yeha you have to bear in mind that the Quest was not "Find Mankriks Wifes Body", it was "Find Mankirks Wife" with absolutely no indication of what you're looking for. iirc the body was just off the southern barrens road, just far away enough for you to disregard it and carry on running past it multiple times. I dont think there were any Map markers back then at all either
