Games that aren't serious but are actually good
Some games just aren't serious and the developers don't expect you to take the game serious, but that doesn't mean it's a bad game. Unlike some movies, you know the parody movie, certain games are actually more fun because they're not so serious. Does that mean that serious games are bad? No, but it does mean we don't need only one type of game but all kinds of games!
Why so serious?
The Joker already said it in the Dark Knight, why so serious? Isn't it more fun to just have fun? This is something that the developers of Saints Row understand and went from GTA wannabe to some ridiculous and absolutely hilarious game. I'm not saying that Saints Row and Saints Row 2 are bad, but in my opinion the games got a lot better with Saints Row the Third and Saints Row IV. Not just because it gives you more freedom, also all the ridiculous things you can do are absolutely fun to play. If you prefer a more serious game then you can always jump back to GTA, not that this game is super serious but at least you have no super powers or other crazy stunts that just don't make sense. The weirdest things that go on in GTA are people tripping balls after smoking some bad weed or crazy plans for a heist. Humour in a game is important and without it I just feel like a game is missing something, some might not feel like they need that but humour actually makes a game so much more fun to play.
Humour makes games much better?
One of the funniest things in games is humour, especially when you don't expect it. For example in Dragon Age Inquisition when in a cutscene you play cards with your companions and then Cullen loses his clothes in a bet. Just seeing him quickly run away while covering his private parts is hilarious. But the problem with humour is that it doesn't fit in every game, for example a game that is more serious for example Condemned is one of those games without humour but it's still an interesting game. If I have to choose I do prefer to see humour in games than games that have no humour in it. Not that there is anything wrong with games that have no humour in them, but it's just more relaxing and funnier to see humour in games. Even in games where you might not expect them, because sometimes a little bit of humour is all you need to make a game even better!
