History PlayingWith / DevelopersForesight

* '''Implied''': The dialog from Captain Charlie after defeating Evil Elliot is identical if the expected lethal force is used or a highly improbable unarmed knock-out. However his line is phrased and acted with a tone that it could be ForeShadowing to a twist that Charlie murders POWs.

'''Marcy:''' [[{{Speedrun}} Apparently I can phase through walls.]]

* '''Parodied''': Marcy enters the computer room via cheats, then [[EvilGenius Dr. Despicable]] breaks the fourth wall mocking you, the player, for thinking they are clever, then makes you fight a [[ThatOneBoss comically overpowered boss]].

* '''Straight''': In the game ''Operation T.R.O.P.E: Infiltration'', Marcy and Jordan enter a military stronghold, where they must hack the control room and disable a nuclear weapon. You play as both, but Jordan, the brains, is scripted to sneak into the security room. If you glitch and exploit the game it's possible to instead have Marcy there. A special cutscene plays where Jordan is instead instructing her on what to do, she gets extremely frustrated and shoots up the control room, somehow disabling the nuclear missile. Jordan’s response, “Yeah that works.”

However his line is phrased and acted with a tone that it could be ForeShadowing to a twist that Charlie [[ObligatoryWarCrimeScene murders POWs]].

* '''Invoked''': The developers wanted their player base to feel that they were clever

* '''Played For Laughs''': If you have Marcy for hacking the computer it is revealed that Marcy is actually [[LatexPerfection Jordan in disguise]]. When you proceed to when you would encounter Marcy she rips off the disguise and demands to know why the hell you were disguised as her. Ironically this mechanically results in Jordan joining at that point.
* '''Played For Horror''': Attempting to bypass a character death results in the echoing voice of [[YouCantFightFate 'you cannot outrun your destiny']] before Marcy gets DraggedOffToHell and a doubleganger is set back onto the 'proper' course.

** The game is delayed over and over again because the developer is going overboard with this. It's not only enough that some people comment of the protagonist's sock color, but ''everyone'' should also aknowledge how long he has been wearing them, if they've been changed in the last few days, if they've [[ClothingDamage been damaged in battle]], why did the player [[BreadEggsMilkSquick put them on their plate]], etc. The end result is a game that came out four years late, feels extremely unfocused and [[GuideDangIt is difficult to follow]] because the creator spent too much time coding cool interactivity over making it fun to play.

* '''Deconstructed''': Sequence breaking permanently lowers your SanityMeter if it is mild YouShouldntKnowThisAlready type bypasses or those which [[ViolationOfCommonSense require abuse of proper game mechanics]] like RocketJumping. Anything which violates causality or requires clipping abuse results in [[RealityIsOutForLunch permanent distortion]] and in the worst case causes a TimeCrash bad end.

%% * '''Deconstructed''': ???

* '''Downplayed''': Jordan or Marcy are both in the computer room, and if you try to make her hack the computer, he he questions why Marcy is trying to hack a computer, and suggests he do it instead.

* '''Straight''': In the game ''Operation T.R.O.P.E: Infiltration'', [[StrongGirlSmartGuy Marcy and Jordan]] enter a military stronghold, where the mission is to hack the motherboard and disable a nuclear weapon. You play as both, but Jordan, the brains, is scripted to sneak into the security room. If you glitch and exploit the game in a certain fashion it’s possible to instead have Marcy there. A special cutscene plays where Jordan is instead instructing her via comms on what to do, she gets extremely frustrated and thrashes the entire security room, somehow disabling the nuclear missile. Jordan’s response, “Yeah that works.”
* '''Exaggerated''': It is literally and virtually impossible to even have Marcy in the room because she isn’t selectable until late-game. But by hacking the game you can unlock her early, and the entire mission plays differently to account for her presence, as if it was intended.
* '''Downplayed''': Jordan or Marcy are both in the computer room, and if you try to make her hack the computer, he has a special quote that simply questions why Marcy is trying to hack a computer, and he suggests he do it instead.

** Marcy was going to be playable in that scene, but they had to cut it late in development due to budget constraints.

* '''Parodied''': Marcy enters the computer room via cheats, then [[EvilGenius Dr. Despicable]] breaks the fourth wall mocking either Marcy and Jordan (Or you) for thinking they are clever, then makes you fight a [[ThatOneBoss comically overpowered boss]].

* '''Averted''': Glitching Marcy into that scene crashes or locks up the game, because the developers never thought to check for such an eventuality.
* '''Enforced''': The developers were unable to patch the glitch that made this possible, so instead they decided to make it a feature and even hide an Easter Egg along the way.

-->'''Jordan:''' Marcy!? How did you get into the computer room?\\
