Yesterday I played the demo of the new game Dispatch and it is all beautifully written, but at some point, while presenting the team in-game, there was a casual funny line, pronounced by a voice off-screen, so without graphical support and I just burst out laughing (I was alone at home, so not pressed by social influence of any kind). When I stopped, I realized how uncommon this has become lately. As a kid, I found LucasArts games extremely funny and I laughed more than occasionally, but this aspect of video game entertainment has been dying out. When was the last time you actually laughed out loud while playing a game for something that was actually designed as funny (no Fortnite or CoD shenanigans stories please)?

VtM Bloodlines 2 just got me yesterday because it changed up the dialogue my character speaks when I put on a catholic priest outfit. He provokes people to rage by saying vampy things depending on his clothes but in the priest suit it's just simple "Damn you!"s and calling people demon or quoting the exorcist. The NPC's have the best replies to this though. Before that it was probably the music video scene from The Alters

Just started playing Wolfenstein: New Colossus for the first time, and everything is just so over the top, it's funny. The game starts you out in a wheel chair, where you roll through a u-boat, shooting Nazis with an automatic pistol.

High on life Helldivers 2

Apart from multiplayer games: * **Psychonauts 2** was both funny and at the same time very moving. * **Return to Monkey Island** managed to capture the charme of the originals. It also hit the absolutely right spot for me being a ::: spoiler spoiler father myself :::. * **Indiana Jones and the Great Circle** is fun like watching an Indy movie (until you realize you watch the movie in real time and it is really long)...

I'm playing *Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon* and there are some really funny moments. There's this quest where a corpse is hanging from a tree and asks you to deal with some creatures that come at night and do the sexy things where he can see them. Or two drunk guys in a tavern debating if a broken sword that has been reforged and it's hilt replaced time and time again would still be the same sword. Or there is this undead crypt keeper, really happy to meet you.

Or the spirit you meet who tasks you with stealing insignificant things. She was fun.

Holy shit The Alters has a music video scene? Is it like in [American Dad](https://youtu.be/oPm-zu-jzKs?t=29s) when he's in Francine's mind and has the other versions of him sing a song?

Outer Worlds 2, baby! It takes itself more seriously than the first one, which I think adds to the comedy. What got a chuckle out of me was this statue in the first town you visit. It's a beautifully-designed, marble statue of some hero. The Auntie's Choice corporation that's colonized the area used an advertisement drone to project an image of the CEO's face over the statue's head. There's also the Protectorate members that have tried to integrate into corporate society saying things like, "I only recently learned that artificial means good!" I love dry humor, and this game is much more dry than the first.

I run a weekly campaign on Neverwinter Nights and this week was the annual Halloween event. After closing the evil portal I introduced the players to 'Gertie', basically a character I made that's an amalgamation of all the weird grandmas you all met when trick-or-treating as kids (using the game's Sea Hag model), and she asked each adventurer: "Now what are YOU supposed to be, little boy/girl?" and made one of them kiss her on the cheek because he was "so adorable". And then she gave them bags of candy. That turned out pretty funny with how the various party members reacted and played along with the gag.
