Last one is the only one I actually got (and MHA actually). It's animal crossing. Edit: Oh! Second to last is Artemis Fowl
- Fantasy animal blood Sports is 100% pokemon. I'm not sure about Florida man, though.
  
  Sports?
- Tiny people gotta be Attack on Titan
  
  I thought it is LOTR
  
  Nah, go classic. Gantz.
- im annoyed i didn't get those because i am avid fans of both.
- I thought the mha one was Steven Universe
weirdly attractive robot gives you a gun and makes you walk through differently shaped rooms. then, you walk through other differently shaped rooms without the robot making you. depending on the version, other robots make you walk through differently shaped rooms.
- Portal?
  
  100% has to be.
  
  maybe (yes)
Psychopaths killing psychopaths for better guns.
- This fits most shooter games
  
  The most kid filled shooter, because kids are psychos. So Fortnite?
- I'm also thinking Borderlands
You're dead, everyone you meet is dead, the world itself is dead... And yet it just keeps going and getting worse, somehow.

E: I assure you, this is a game franchise and not just a metaphor for real life.
- Dark souls, final answer
- Nier Replicant?
a bunch of dumbass scientists shove a cool crystal into a big device that somehow leads to several alien invasions.
- λ
  
  They're waiting for you, Gordon. In the test chamberrrr.

  Gordon Freeman, in the flesh.
- Alt: a scientist comes late to work, causes apocalypse
- captain underpants or the avengers
Pokemon

?

My Hero Academia

Attack on Titan

Zelda?

Animal Crossing
- Pretty sure 5 is Artemis Fowl.
  
  But that's a good description of that series, or at least the first book. So it's a pretty bad, bad description.
- 2 is probably Fight Club
  
  I don't think you can call an independent novel/movie part of a 'franchise'.
Gay people argue in front of a judge, and your ghost mentor makes your friend's boobs grow bigger while giving you advice.
- Pheonix Wright
  
  I was tempted to just say "gay lawyers", but the challenge was a BAD description, and that one is just too good.
  
  Oh yeah, that reminds me to download those games onto my 2ds. And the professor Layton games.
A promising young athlete gets cool face tattoos and befriends a cranky dog tamer
- I didn't know Mike Tyson's autobiography was made into a video game
Travel the galaxy, pick your favorite prime color.
- Could be Elite:Dangerous.
  
  Ha. Good guess but no. The prime color is more of a dig at the ending if that gives you more of a hint.
- Star Trek
a sociopathic mammal gets elected as the president of the united states, and through the power of friendship defeats a rainbow cult on the moon by violently murdering its leader.
- sounds like another trump term
- Okay I have to know wtf you're talking about
  
  it's a brief summary of the second half of Sam & Max: Save The World.
  
  Seconded
Internet spaceships is serious business.
- Star Citizen?
  
  Or is it EVE online?
  
  Eve
woman hunts metal animals for some fuckin reason idk
- That's a pretty good description of Horizon
  
  Worse, spoiler version:
  
  !Robot makes woman to kill robots!<
- and gets turned into Lego minifigure as a punishment?
  
  Plastic woman hunts plastic metal animals for some reason
- Because she's rad!
Extremely strong man destroys and builds stuff
Destry the local economy by flooding the market with groceries, animal products, and fermented goods.
- Stardew
- While going into town twice a week to love bomb the locals
- Most rpgs with a sell function do that. Undertale was really smart with that.
Animal genocide in the name of fashion
- Monster Hunter
- cruella?
  
  How fat was Cruella? Genocide is a lot of puppies
- This one is hard. I'm thinking of a bunch of survival games.
  
  I think the Far Cry/assassins creed games also have you kill a bunch of animals to upgrade your clothes. Like Kill 12 endangered whales to hold 2 more revolver rounds or something ridiculous.
  
  Haha not quite, it's Monster Hunter
  
  the core gameplay loop is kill monster -> craft stronger equipment out of its corpse -> kill stronger monster -> repeat, and eventually you're killing these things just because the armor they make looks so good.
vegetable commits many crimes
- Veggie tales has taken a harsh turn since i last saw it.
Game: bodily fluid kills monsters

Guy/Gal join group of white haired secret organization to fight against various divinities and ghost of a long lost past. Ends up saving the universe from nihilistic bird in the process.
- I never really thought about the fact that 3/5 scions, plus the twins, all have white hair before...
  
  Funny piece of trivia, it was because the old game engine rendered white hair up close way better than any other hair color. And it stuck XD
- This sounds really familiar, but i can't put my finger on it.
  
  "That boy just ain't buoyant." 😉

  Nop. The "Guy/Gal" is an important clue.

  i'll give you another hint: a roughly spherical human and his army of robots
  
  if you need one more hint, google what animals are in the eulipotyphlan family
Hotsex IV
- I WILL NOT DIE ON HOTSEX
What do you mean Japan was never Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire?

Explore space, meet new people, kill them and eat them when they shoot your dog.

Read books, feed the door, dream the riddles answer, become one that will never die.
