It's a typical video game peasant looking npc lamenting at no on in particular that's there's a very solvible problem. Oh is only somone could solve this for them! While a very strong capible looking player character is right next to them.

I'm reading somthing about emotional blackmail. Apprently this meme describes one form of it perfectly. Though I havnt seen it in years and I can't find it via searches.

This doesn't quite fit your description, but it's what came to mind. If you wipe away the text it could work

Made me think of this, not sure if it fits:

Might be thinking of some video from the "Epic NPC man" series or one of their many videos of silly game logic.

One of my classic favourites - fire physics in video games

One of my newer favourites - missing an obvious game mechanic

I can't say I know which video you were looking for but I have a feeling it's in this series/by this channel.

E: by the sounds of your other reply you were looking for an image so unlikely to be this.

Is it a single image macro? The premise sounds awfully familiar, but the only thing I can come up with is a Viva La Dirt League skit (which is a video).

It was just an image. Maybe a comic. Honestly super foggy on it

I feel like I saw this, but not super recently. I want to say it was on Lemmy.
