Why are rats always portrayed as enemies in videogames?

This si a lot further along, uses the principles that that elephant lady created with studying subaural calls and supraaural sounds, while using the power of modern cloud computing to decipher and catalogue all contextual squeaks and calls.
We already have an outline of the basic syntax of rat chatter.
I hope they get to corvids before the end times.
I want to talk to ravens and feed them tatertots.

Rats have always been associated when with filth, illness, and plague. Thus easy villain fodder

rodents are disgusting and are therefore a perfect enemy that you don't feel bad for killing

because they steal food, are aggressive in numbers, shit everywhere, chew furniture and spread diseases.

I am a cat fag, and a racoon fag and a possumfag
I am also the batfag from the bat threads.
All animals are worthwhile, and we are so far beyond the years of black plague and dutch ship rats.
I wouldn't handle a wild rat, but I wouldn't handle anything wild without training.

So are cats. All animals carry diseases, the issue with cats is that humans are very stupid and consider them Clean Animals because they lick themselves and that because they are seen as pets that they are great animals to have in society.

I disagree. Cats should be seen as vermin and killed on sight. No different from rats.

mice and guinea pigs are cuter.
rats are just shitty

They are also excellent in killing rats and stopping the plague in your village, hohoho

You asked why rats are always bad guys and I gave you an answer faggot

No they arent, dogs are better at killing rats, cats actually spread the plague more than rats ever did because of misinformation and people thinking they didnt spread disease

People are coming around to the sweetness that is the domestic rat.
Near perfect pets, easy to train, scary smart, and very affectionate.
My first experience with them was a guy who would come to axis and allies in freshman years and his rat would sleep in his hoodie, and come out and walk around the table, wouldn't disturb anything but wanted pattins or to inspect pizza, wed leave him little bits on a warhammer blast marker like a tray.
Fucking loved that rat.

I hate rat threads.

Brings back memories of my pet rats from when I was young. Beautiful creatures, wonderful companions. Stop making me cry dammit.

Mad Rat Dead is out at the end of the month, there's a demo out now.

Are rats bros like dogs are? In that they come to wherever you are and chill with you on your bed?

yes, they are really similar to small dogs, they are a little bit more skittish though

>user's will be able to translate ratspeak, type posts for rats and thus allow rats to shitpost
I love the future

I'd love to get a pet rat or two, too bad they generally only live 2-3 years.

Rats are far more convenient to work with than dolphins, wouldnt be surprising if the speech tech went better with them aswell.

In a few years time you will be able to mic their pen, and run it to your computer, for your rat to talk to you in real time, and vice versa.
Entire threads of ratposts, snitching, gossip, egirl rats.
I am ready for the incredible rat social network.
Rabbits are a lot like cats, behavior wise, top tier pets, used to breed hollands and english lops.
I stopped after my last two passed, such lovely creatures they couldnt be matched.
Beau lived to be 13 as an english lop, he loved his family and his home.

Big pharma has gmo rats that live way longer but they don't want the public to get their hands on them.

Raccoons also make incredible pets, "vermints" and "vermin" in the age of modern vet care, aren't even a problem.
