MatPat Bait

A crappy indie horror game (or any other type of game) who's selling point is the "lore" just so MatPat (Game Theory) can analyze the lore, giving undeserved publicity to said game.

Examples of MatPat Bait:
Poppy Playtime
Merge Mansion
Andy's Apple Farm
Garten of BanBan
Hello Neighbor

Vampire Baiting

You're done playing a great story-driven game, such as Outer Wilds, Subnautica or Omori and you want more... but the game has zero replay value. You already played it twice and know the story by heart. You get withdrawal. You're on Youtube looking at let's-plays to try to fill a hole like you're some kind of vampire feeding on other people's first experience with the game. You eventually run out of playthrough videos, so now you have to bait everyone you know into playing the game to feed your addiction.

My brother has been vampire baiting me to play Ultrakill for more than a year now

Bicker Baiting

An almost theatrical form of relational sabotage, Bicker Baiting is the cunning yet questionable practice of strategically deploying words or actions, either consciously or subconsciously, to ensnare someone into an argument. This technique often emerges following a misleading stretch of harmony. It represents the paradoxical pursuit of conflict after periods of calm, embodying a twisted longing for the familiar dissonance of everyday squabbles rather than the alien stillness of harmony.

Was a peaceful Sunday until my partner hit me with a bicker baiting bombshell, asking why I still follow my ex on social media. Went from zero to a hundred real quick over a 'like' from 2017.
