Things I would really like all videogames to stop doing, immediately:
having wolves as enemies
making you fight wolves
making you hit wolves and they make that dog whining noise and why, just why, what's wrong with you that you're making us do this
For PC, I usually install a wolf behavior mod that makes them skittish around humanoids unless you (stupidly) enter into their wolf dens and bother their cubs.
The option I'm referring to make them chill even if you're in human/elf/furry/scalie form as long as you're a werewolf. Also one of the new werewolf perks lets you summon wolves to fight with you.

While Hotline Miami was a great game, I really hated that you attacked the dogs.
And it wasn't like you knocked them out, either. They didn't deserve that, I don't care who their masters were!
Agreed! I would, however, be down with a plotline where you have to make a treaty with the wolves to stop them from stealing people's chickens...which they're doing because the Dark Lord has killed all the game.
While on surveys, boar tracks/scat/spoor was the one thing that got the crusty old redneck surveyors nervous.
Snakes? Gators? Nah.
Boars tho, let's just go to the hotel bar...
Most everything else can be reasoned with, Boars just want to kill you and stomp your remains into paste then eat the paste then break into your widow's house and poop the you paste all over.
No I'm not completely terrified of boars why do you ask
i second this motion and would like to add BATS 🦇 to the proposal
just leave them alone they LIVE in those caves/dungeons and they're never gd aggressive like that 😭😭
i love how Stardew Valley gives you a little cave where fruit bats live and bring you fresh fruit...
but then ofc in the mines bats are real aggressive and have to be killed :(
I really need to sell my series to a studio so we can spin off videogames. There's an alien species who resemble wolves, even get called wolves. And they're with the good guys.
(Hunter gatherers until the planet's invaded. Then they're all like, "So how do these metal tubes that throw lead work?")
I remember in Call of Duty 4: MW, if you shot the feral dog in "All Ghillied Up" a whole pack if his friends would come out and eat you ass, violently.
I need more games where you can have a pack of wolves hangout with you and pet them. I don’t need to fight animals, I just want to be friends with them!!
It is an immediate, oh I am role playing an evil character. Sea of Thieves had an interesting terrible idea where you could have a pet dog who would make scared noises when things like cannons or fireworks went off, in a game about setting those things off
I'm playing FF16 and I hate every time they make me fight a pack of wolves because on my side is a very good doggo and in the heat of combat it's confusing and even if I can't actually hurt my boy it still bothers me!
There's a bonus in Township where you can send a dog with a stick of dynamite to blow stuff up. WHY??? I have never used it so I've just got this dog who walks around with a lit stick of dynamite in his mouth.

Something I like about the MOTHER games is that, while some actual enemies like zombies will die, normal ones like snakes/bats/wolves/stray dogs etc. will instead "return to normal" or "regain all senses", and it's established that it's abnormal for them and they're being controlled by evil forces
exception: i will always take a second to hit rahzar after he turns back into a baby wolf in turtles in time on super nintendo so he makes the dog whining noise
