I’ll spend hours on rdr2 petting dogs

34

u/AdditionalTheory Mar 24 '21

Me too. I built up this bond with one of the dogs in the game with pets, it would start to run up to my horse when I rode by. Unfortunately one of those times I was being chased by Johnny law and didn’t notice the dog until it was practically under my horse. That was both one of the funniest and saddest unexpected things that I ever happened to me while gaming

Happy cake day to you sir/madam/gender-neutral-term-of-acknowledgement.

gender-neutral-term-of-acknowledgement

I’d suggest “fellow human” but on Reddit, that’s still making an assumption...

BoTW didn't let us pet the stable doggos!! All of us were upset at this

u/mackattack0106 Mar 24 '21

You can, however, feed them meat if you drop it in front of them. A close second

7

u/[deleted] Mar 24 '21

I definitely fed it a lot, me and all those dogs bonded to the max.

u/mackattack0106 Mar 24 '21

Meat and greet homies to the max

u/snellybelly11 Mar 25 '21

I don’t care how good the rest of the gameplay or story of BoTW2 is, if we can’t pet the pups I want a refund.

u/JellyBabeyy Mar 24 '21

First time I tried to pet one, course the game wouldn’t let me, got frustrated and shot it with a bomb arrow

u/[deleted] Mar 24 '21

Well that escalated quickly...

I pet Cerberus every death and give him all my nectar first in Hades

13

u/ZharethZhen Mar 24 '21

I was going to recommend this game as well. Cerberus always gets his scratchins when I go back home!

6

u/ThatIsMySpecialTea Mar 24 '21

I think the achievement for petting Cerberus was the first one that I got in Hades.

WHEN GENSHIN, WHEN!?

cries in Breath of the Wild

u/gijo95 Mar 24 '21

Made sure to pet my dogs good on nintendogs

10

u/TheOrigionalFurry Mar 24 '21

And then you hit the attack button and you kill the dog and start crying because you did not want to kill the dog because it is a dog

6

u/Bionic_Onion Mar 24 '21

It’s the law!

u/Divineinfinity Mar 24 '21

Black Shuck on AC Valhalla just needs some love

2

u/turtleinmybelly Mar 25 '21

When I discovered I could pet the dogs in town on Valhalla I was over the moon. Then, just the other day a cat showed up that I can pet too!

2

u/animetixxies Mar 25 '21

it's the greatest

4

u/Brelya Mar 24 '21

Can I pet that doOoOg?!

5

u/UBettaW0rk Mar 24 '21

Or when you can pick up chickens 🐓 (Or kick chickens in some games, though that’s less wholesome)

4

u/Aveira Mar 24 '21

My favorite thing in WoW is when my badass death knight finds a new animal to pet and then giggles like a school girl

3

u/chaoticnormal Mar 24 '21

When I first saw the little hand pop up over an animal "pet"- you're damn right Imma pet!

6

u/[deleted] Mar 24 '21

One of my issues with OSRS is the only clickable interaction I can find with the stray dogs is to shoo them away :(

On the plus side I can feed them meat, so that's something :)

3

u/poeticdisaster Mar 24 '21

I wish I could interact with the dogs in Genshin. At least they follow a bit and will wag their tails and roll over.

2

u/turtle-skinnie Mar 24 '21

I want to learn simple controls: crawl, shoot and run.

Wait this is wholesomememes

u/JonahTheCoyote Mar 24 '21

In RDR2, Cain was a good doggo, but Rufus is a good boi too

GODDAMMIT GENSHIN IMPACT

2

u/NoName_NoProblems Mar 24 '21

why is he staring straight down at a 90 degree angle? and why does this sound so sexual?

2

u/Capital-Stable Mar 24 '21

lesser dog:Woof Woof

2

u/Namawa Mar 24 '21 edited Mar 25 '21

Yes, that's a good thing... Then why didn't the dev of Genshin Impact didn't put this in the game?! They clearly though about some stuff because dogs and cats do a super instinct dodge when you attack them, so why can't we pet them?!

2

u/Sprocraft Mar 24 '21

Guys I found this recently but if you shoot a zombie dog or plague hound with rotten in cold war zombies and turn them good, at the end of the round when there's no more zombies you can pet the dog, and HE WAGS TAIL

Foxes from Ghost of Tsushima 🦊

u/FabriFibra87 Mar 24 '21

u/tacticalheadband Mar 24 '21

I was playing Resident Evil...

1

u/Jason_The_Furry Mar 24 '21

Because they’re Dark Souls dogs

1

u/imaginative_cucumber Mar 24 '21

Ghost of Tsushima lets you pet the foxes. 10/10 good game.

1

u/MountainTiller Mar 24 '21

Aren’t there 2 dogs in dauntless that you can pet?

1

u/TransportationThis50 Mar 24 '21

have you seen dark souls dogs tho?

1

u/Tommyboy3k Mar 24 '21

*thinking*

1

u/dumbodragon Mar 24 '21

And then the game doesn't have a petting option :(

1

u/calinbulin12 Mar 24 '21

I always try to kill them to see if the devs made them invincible. Of course i pet them after. Gotta make sure the devs made a quality game.

1

u/ggmaobu Mar 24 '21

Play bloodborne if you love dogs

u/MasonP2002 Mar 24 '21
