weirdly attractive robot gives you a gun and makes you walk through differently shaped rooms. then, you walk through other differently shaped rooms without the robot making you. depending on the version, other robots make you walk through differently shaped rooms.
I learned japanese solely to play this game when they said it would never be localized. I also played the first 3 layton games in japanese as practice/warm up. then shortly after I finished the whole ordeal it came out in english. the localization was pretty iffy though
a sociopathic mammal gets elected as the president of the united states, and through the power of friendship defeats a rainbow cult on the moon by violently murdering its leader.
i didn't even mention he got elected by winning an snap election after murdering the president himself against the reanimated statue of Abraham Lincoln, and the head of this statue later in the franchise impregnates one of the main characters of the series and leads a coordinated strike of huge robots against an eldritch horror, designed as a distraction for the A team containing but not limited to his pregnant wife, a huge cockroach and the monster's best friend to stop the monster.
This one is hard. I'm thinking of a bunch of survival games.
I think the Far Cry/assassins creed games also have you kill a bunch of animals to upgrade your clothes. Like Kill 12 endangered whales to hold 2 more revolver rounds or something ridiculous.
the core gameplay loop is kill monster -> craft stronger equipment out of its corpse -> kill stronger monster -> repeat, and eventually you're killing these things just because the armor they make looks so good.
Japanese man gets into fist fights with every criminal organization in his country for plot reasons. And wins.

you play as a weird 'slanky' thing (quoth markiplier), get eaten by a lizard, and lore back into existence
technically you can NOT be eaten by a lizard, but no one's ever done that
Last one is the only one I actually got (and MHA actually). It's animal crossing. Edit: Oh! Second to last is Artemis Fowl
Fantasy animal blood Sports is 100% pokemon. I'm not sure about Florida man, though.
Sports?
Yes; dog fighting is an animal blood sport, iirc.
I meant sports in general. Like football or basketball. Lots of people yelling alone in their living rooms.
In that case, I'm not sure what information your single-word question is requesting.
My apologies for being unclear. My original comment was in response to:
I was suggesting that Florida man may be any non-specified sport.
Gotchya ty.
Tiny people gotta be Attack on Titan
I thought it is LOTR
Nah, go classic. Gantz.
im annoyed i didn't get those because i am avid fans of both.
I thought the mha one was Steven Universe
I don't think so? There's at least 2 people getting hand-me-downs.
I'm not entirely sure how I made that mistake. ๐

Portal?
100% has to be.
maybe (yes)
Psychopaths killing psychopaths for better guns.
This fits most shooter games
The most kid filled shooter, because kids are psychos. So Fortnite?
I'm also thinking Borderlands
You're dead, everyone you meet is dead, the world itself is dead... And yet it just keeps going and getting worse, somehow.

Alt: a scientist comes late to work, causes apocalypse
captain underpants or the avengers
Pretty sure 5 is Artemis Fowl.
But that's a good description of that series, or at least the first book. So it's a pretty bad, bad description.
How? Centaurs are the closest thing to an actual furry in that entire series.
There's like 3, 2 of them actually had lines only in the last book.
2 is probably Fight Club
I don't think you can call an independent novel/movie part of a 'franchise'.
Gay people argue in front of a judge, and your ghost mentor makes your friend's boobs grow bigger while giving you advice.

I was tempted to just say "gay lawyers", but the challenge was a BAD description, and that one is just too good.
Oh yeah, that reminds me to download those games onto my 2ds. And the professor Layton games.
And the Ace Attorney/Layton crossover game! I highly recommend.

Travel the galaxy, pick your favorite prime color.
Could be Elite:Dangerous.
Ha. Good guess but no. The prime color is more of a dig at the ending if that gives you more of a hint.
Ah, I'm an idiot. Mass Effect, of course. Am I right ?
Yep!
Green is a secondary color
Oh, true... I blame "RGB" gaming stuff for my mistake ๐
Star Trek

sounds like another trump term
Okay I have to know wtf you're talking about
it's a brief summary of the second half of Sam & Max: Save The World.
dammit I should have got that
I would've never gotten that. Ty.
telltale's sam and max games are great it's shame they are overshadowed by the rest of telltale's library.
Is Sam & Max actually as good as the YouTube clip compilations make it look? Cause if so I might have to get it
it's good but if you've seen a lot complication clips you've seen most of the good jokes. i still recommend it though they're a fun bunch of games.
Seconded

I'm almost certain I've never even heard of this.
Forza Horizon!
I had that game but never paid attention to how it worked. somehow missed all that.
It's great. Everyone is so happy that you're driving around their beautiful country because it's FORZA!
That almost sounds like real life Donegal Rally weekend!

That's a pretty good description of Horizon

One of the FF
It is for sure a common trope in FF ๐
I never really thought about the fact that 3/5 scions, plus the twins, all have white hair before...
Funny piece of trivia, it was because the old game engine rendered white hair up close way better than any other hair color. And it stuck XD
This sounds really familiar, but i can't put my finger on it.
"That boy just ain't buoyant." ๐
Mystery Inc.
Nop. The "Guy/Gal" is an important clue.
Man pisses off god, gets turned into small demon child.
Tanya the Evil. Nothing like a militant atheist praying magical artillery fire into existence while basically fighting for Nazi Germany.
They are pretty explicitly based off the German Empire, though they do have a solid mix of WW1 and WW2 equipment on all sides.
