It's funny how tone deaf it is. In the next scene you rescue a fake president.

I legitimately didn't know till you said.
I thought it was from Metal Gear Solid

Nah, I'm just fucking with you. I honestly don't know which one it's from because I don't play that shit

It was the death of the videogame narrative.

If anyone ever asked "Hey, where EXACTLY did videogames lost their last shred of soul"? You can point riiiiiight here.

>>387416008
It was never funny, it became a meme because it's absurd how tone-deaf this moment is. It's supposed to be a serious military funeral and they're having you do a pointless button prompt that disrespects the sacrifice the real men make by saying you can "Pay Respects" by doing something as simple as pressing F.

>>387416207
It's from Advanced Warfare.

It became a meme because it's the stupidest thing ever. The game had a million "press key to do x" events.

From /pol/ xD upvote my fellow magapedes

>>387416267
Good to know. I vaguely could defend it because if I recall correctly, when you press the button, it reveals you are missing a hand. So I thought it was supposed to be a twist. Without the prompt, you would possibly just glaze over it.

Though knowing there was a hundred such events, it IS pretty funny/stupid.

Does anyone else unironically hear the word "keck" in their head when they read it? I mean like? Rather than imagining an anon laughing on the other side you literally hear him saying the word kek.

>>387416745
WoW has 2 sides depending on your race Alliance and Horde.

They speak different common languages that look like gibberish when spoken to one another.

"L O L" becomes "K E K" when spoken to the other side

>>387416745
Alliance would see horde saying 'lol' as 'kek'.

It's possible that lol turning into kek was an intentional from blizzard's part, considering koreans in starcraft used to say "kekekeke" to laugh.

Why are the mouse and keyboard connected to the monitor?

The CoD series tries way too hard to be a dramatic war movie/game and just fails because of tone deaf shit like this. The dudebros who play CoD don't care about "emotional" moments like this. They just want to shoot more Chinese/Russians/Muslims.

/v/ never stopped obsessing over loss. Before Loss, we had to resort to other ways to make fun of Buckley.

>>387417982
>/v/ never stopped obsessing over loss
Sure, it was posted in LOL threads, but it was nowhere nearly as spammed everywhere as it is now, nor there were so many memers asking "is this loss" to post the reactions on r/4chan

>>387417629
I would say only infnity ward really fails at making a serious game. Treyarch has created many great campaigns and stories. Some moments in Call of Duty 3 were good along with the end of the Russian campaign in World at War. The Black ops series also has a great campaigns

You're wrong. While orcs do say kek in WoW, it was barely a meme. No one actually said kek instead of lol. The actual meme is from [s4s]. It really is pathetic watching people go with the WoW thing, because it's so obvious they're trying to fit in without knowing shit.

no fucking way /s4s/ is older than "kek"

This was it, i don't doubt lonley MMO fags had the word before, but it hasn't been used on /v/ since 2012/13ish, thats why people don't have a clue.

It's not about where it's from, it's when the flower of kek started to blossom in our retarded post ironic minds.

It is pretty funny with how it's worded that the act of pressing F itself is how you pay respects. If they had written it like "F: Pay Respects" or "Pay Respects (F)" it would've been much better.

>not realizing esfores was the true originator with topkek

>>387416557
This was ok though, its a signifcant part of batman as a whole and to the story while being completely optional and basically an easter egg. Because Hugo Strange knows who batman is he leaves a tape there taunting the player, and at the end of the game in the final confrontation the Movie theater you find joker in is the one Bruce left as a child before the whole dead parents thing

>>387418792
This is the correct answer. Nobody said it outside of WoW before [s4s].

If that's true why do I know what kekbur means?

The resemblance to WoW's kek is entirely coincidental.

Topkek was posted by namefig called prime minister face in 2013 and was a corruption of Top Lel. From there, s4s just kept spouting "top kek" until it naturally shorted to "kek" and spread to other boards.

>>387425112
/v/ will never be decent, the mods themselves are a part of the problem too, deleting on-topic vidya threads fucking often

Did Advanced Warfare deserve the hate it got?

>>387425543
/v/ will be decent when /v/ will don't exist anymore, because every group is triggered by another like this anon >>387425112 who care if a LOL thread exist, hide it and move on.

>>387426112
>who care if a LOL thread exist, hide it and move on.
Because it's a slippery slope, if a nonvidya thread is allowed, why shouldn't any other nonvidya thread be allowed too? The average /v/edditor is incapable of any form of self-moderation, so the board would just become another /b/ in a matter of months, like it has already happened in the past

kek originated from WoW, without a doubt. People just thought it was clever to take it out of context, especially considering it's similarity to words like lel.

The 4chan kek did not. WoW kek is a different story.
