Thought the thing highlighted in orange was a loot container. Was not. Was explosive barrel. Geth shot barrel and killed me.

I went into this game fairly blind, and I'm surprised how much it reminds me of KOTOR 2.

Instead of ignoring all the enemies and unloading the group at the waypoint, the helicopter decided to take the squad on a kilometers-long joyride. We went over many enemy positions as the helicopter ineffectually tried to take them out; the waypoint set the "stealth" and "hold fire" flags, and won't unset them until the helicopter actually lands at it, meaning that the AI is prevented from shooting.

Some of those enemy positions held machine gunners, which wouldn't have been an unreasonable threat for an infantry squad but proved quite deadly for a helicopter. The rotor was shot out, causing us to tumble to the ground and crash in a fiery explosion.

ARMA 2. I refuse to believe that this is the one everybody likes.

Rumia got tired of missing me with bullets and bodyslammed me. I then proceeded to die of shame.

Stole a golden idol from cliff-top temple, and unleashed the wrath of the Gods. My expedition and I were weary, almost insane, on our last legs and trapped in the woods, running on nothing but the pile of coca leaves that had sustained us these last months. We'd fought natives angry about us defiling...something, can't remember. We'd faced down panthers. I'm pretty sure we found a gate to another dimension but that memory too is a little hazy.

In short it had been a full trip. In the distance was what I knew to be the Golden Temple that was the purpose of our expedition, our salvation from the months of toil in these darkest lands of....South America? But there was this other temple, and it's oh so tempting relics so nearby...surely there was time for a little stop before the end?

Took the idol and a gigantic chasm began opening up, swallowing the lands all around us. We made for some plains lands and made good time, but a forest, damnable forest, blocked our path to the Golden Temple and slowed us down, and we were never heard from again.

After being cursed with a ball and chain, I tried to go down some stairs. The ball fell on my head and killed me - apparently my character charges full-speed down stairs instead of, y'know, walking like a normal person.

Nethack. I am so terrible at this game despite abusing mechanics spoilers.
Charging down the stairs while bound with a ball and chain?
Apparently! It's the only reason I can think of that would explain how walking down a staircase results in getting brained with an iron ball attached to your leg.
Going down stairs with an iron ball attached to your leg deals 1-26 damage (although it can be decreased to 1-9 if you are holding it in your hands), as it turns out that its kind of difficult to go down stairs slowly while being pulled by a giant iron ball.

And I wouldn't call reading spoilers and using the stuff it says "abusing", because the game is so ridiculously impossible (assuming you aren't willing to spend hundreds of times dying lategame for silly reasons that you could have easily avoided if you knew about them) if you don't.

I loaded a save, and suddenly became unable to look up or down. I tried to zoom out into third person, but my camera flew away into space. I tried it outside my house instead, and my camera focused on my horse. I kept loading quicksaves but no matter what I did it just kept going back to the fucking horse. I could see my character running around, but the camera kept looking at the horse instead. It turns out that somewhere along the line the game became unaware that I was not a horse, and the only way to fix this is to load a save from before I got the horse in question, which is something I do not have. The only thing I can do is input some console commands every single time I reload a save which make the camera focus back on me instead of having it attempt to look at my horse. I'll never have to actually do that, though, since I decided to delete my save in frustration instead.

It would still cause issues even when the horse was not existing at the same time as me, since the issue is apparently caused by my guy's ID becoming the horse's, or something like that. That was why it would infect save files wirh no real fix. Killing him wouldn't have made any difference, it probably would have just done the thing it did while I was inside where the camera would zoom into space looking at nothing in particular.

It's kind of funny, now that I think of it. I was Aggrosmack, and the horse was too. No, he was the two of us, together. This glitch we were in? We built it. These cameras, these "entity IDs"... they were ours.
