Unnecessary added features to video games, that adds nothing to the overall quality, yet people still put an over-emphasis on, such as adding testicles to the horses in Red Dead Redemption 2.

House Ball

house ball
ˈhau̇s ˌbȯl
noun

1. A pinball term: the ball that drains immediately after being launched, typically going straight down the middle or out an outlane, before the player has any chance to make contact with a flipper. Often compared to a casino “house win,” since the machine effectively keeps the player’s money without providing any meaningful play.

2. Informal: An exaggerated complaint made by a pinball player who insists that house balls occur to them far more often than to anyone else, despite all evidence to the contrary. Usually accompanied by dramatic outbursts, theatrical sighs, or the conviction that the universe is conspiring against them personally.

— house ball, verb
house-balled; house-ball·ing
: to suffer an immediate drain without making contact with the flippers

Etymology:
First known use: mid-20th century pinball arcades, where unlucky plunges were said to be “claimed by the house.” In modern usage, the term has expanded to describe both the event and the theatrical meltdown of certain players who treat every house ball as a cosmic injustice aimed squarely at them.

• “Launched the ball, drained instantly — that’s a house ball.”
• “On older machines, house balls are common and just part of the game.”
• “HOUSE BALL?!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!? THIS MACHINE IS RIGGED!!!”
• “That wasn’t a drain, that was a government-sanctioned assassination of my bonus multiplier… HOUSE BALL!!!”
• “Three house balls in a row? Clearly the pinball gods hate me personally and no one else.”
• “You didn’t just get a house ball, bro… you got a deep state conspiracy.”

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
