This makes me wonder what the first time was. Pong and Yar’s Revenge weren’t really comedy material. Maybe The Quest for c64, where we got annoyed at the game always saying “gorn doesn’t want to go that way”. I guess that’s not intentionally humorous though. Maybe Monkey Island?

Um... Slay the Princess, like, last night. Sure it's marketed as a psychological horror game but it's actually pretty funny.
That said, I'm also often streaming things with friends and we riff the whole time so even the least funny games ever will get a laugh at some point. Lol

Some Neon White dialogues have me laugh, but there was one level that baited me so badly, I couldn't stop laughing. Incredibly recommended game, although I'll never forgive the devs for not adding a map editor.
I'm playing Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon and there are some really funny moments.
There's this quest where a corpse is hanging from a tree and asks you to deal with some creatures that come at night and do the sexy things where he can see them. Or two drunk guys in a tavern debating if a broken sword that has been reforged and it's hilt replaced time and time again would still be the same sword. Or there is this undead crypt keeper, really happy to meet you.
Or the spirit you meet who tasks you with stealing insignificant things. She was fun.
ETA: I also treat that undead crypt keeper nicely any time I see him in a playthrough. He's always nice to me so it only seems fair.
Yeah, she was funny, too. And the seagull guy was definitely a highlight!
I'm still on my first playthrough (just arrived in the third area). What I particularly like about the humor is that it's charming and mostly unexpected, rather than coming across as crude and heavy-handed.
I run a weekly campaign on Neverwinter Nights and this week was the annual Halloween event. After closing the evil portal I introduced the players to 'Gertie', basically a character I made that's an amalgamation of all the weird grandmas you all met when trick-or-treating as kids (using the game's Sea Hag model), and she asked each adventurer: "Now what are YOU supposed to be, little boy/girl?" and made one of them kiss her on the cheek because he was "so adorable".
And then she gave them bags of candy.
That turned out pretty funny with how the various party members reacted and played along with the gag.
Woah people are still DMing custom games on NwN? Can you tell me more about how those play? I was interested in it but never got to see the scene in its glory days
There are still a few dozen active persistent worlds. They all have different flavors. Some are role-play focused and some more hack-and-slash. Some are high magic and some low. You kinda just have to try a bunch out and see which shoe fits.
If you're logged in as the DM, you basically have a cheat menu that allows you to spawn monsters, items, placeables, etc. It's pretty darn cool.
Every once in a while, I get matched with competent players in Rocket League, and something magical happens that makes me grind. Feels rarer and rarer these days, but it still happens, which is why I still play.
Most recently Trials Rising. Its the worst of the series ive played so far, but i hadn't played one in about 10 years and id forgotten how funny some of the crashes are.
Last night I accidentally tripped Hitman's Diana Burnwood over with a bunch of grapes and she fell ass up. I was completely taken off guard because i expected her to take a different route and her escort to slip on the grapes later. It was funny as hell.
I love playing Role playing servers and it’s hilarious everyday!
A couple of minutes ago.
I played Helldivers 2 with some noobs.
We finished all objectives and were going for extraction.
One guy was walking past me with a portable hellbmomb backpack. You don't even have to play the game to guess what that is. The name nails it perfectly.
You can arm the hellbmomb backpack yourself - but it can be activated by your teammates as well.
It's kind of a dick move, but I couldn't resist. Poor guy got blown up into a bazillion pieces.
