Video Game Logic

[Hypodermic Johnny]

Skyrim: Learn alchemy and the intricacies of poison and potion-making by being your own guinea pig and eating ingredients. Which include plants, obnoxiously ringing plants, animal parts, the demonic hearts of your enemies, BEES?, and fucking whole deer antlers.

Bioshock: Sure, you could totally restore your health with first aid kits. Or you could not be a pussy and totally eat things out of the garbage. Also the drugs that give you superpowers and can turn you into a living beehive drove literally everyone in this city insane and murderous. But nah, I'm sure you'll be fine. Shoot up with this totally-not-a-dirty-needle syringe!

Also Bioshock, Infinite edition: You're still eating shit out of the garbage. Also there are pineapples in chocolate boxes. Whole pineapples, that you can also just eat out of the garbage. But the good news is we stopped injecting the magic drugs and now you just drink them! But now you somehow summon crows instead of bees and hallucinate your flesh melting. Also, jumping around from skylines to buildings with some kind of magnetic hook totally doesn't dislocate your shoulder or shatter your ankles despite there being no reason for it not to.

I'll be honest there's no part of consumable items I don't ever somehow find hilarious.

It may as well be funny as fuck when using this logic on a game like Oblivion or Skyrim. Got a simple chest/bag/iron safe. Stuff the shit out of it with weapons besides a dagger that wouldn't fit in it along side many suits of armor. Morrowind would also be guilty in that respect but surprisingly, the game actually has a weight limit in how much stuff you can put in. Could of put in some heavy sets of armor until the game said there was no more space left to hold it.

Eating raw meat will heal you, but also make you sick.
Cooking that meat however, turns into an edible ICU that will heal gunshot wounds to the face, deathclaw slashes, and even cause you to get stronger.
