What game or scene in a game took you the longest time before you understood the meaning behind it? (alien.top)

When I was young and had a super nintendo I loved playing Super Mario RPG.

I'm playing the remake and I'm at the scene after defeating Valentina. Mallow goes into the castle and Mario was left standing outside.

Back then I didn't know why Mario pulled out an umbrella and it rained. I just realised after 20 years of playing the original that Mario knew it was going to rain because whenever Mallow cries it rains; Mario knew that Mallow would get all emotional when meeting his parents for the first time.

Blew my mind.

It didn't take long (pmuch immediately), but I giggled like a kid once I realized that the subtitle for the first South Park RPG sounds just like Fractured Butthole.

That's the second, and only if you only count the modern games. First modern game was The Stick of Truth, first game ever was South Park: The Game on the N64 iirc.

They wanted to call it The Butthole of Time, but the ESRB or something wouldn't let them put "butthole" in the title.

Not to be that guy, but it was the second RPG, not the first! First is Stick of Truth.
