Hardest aspect of a video game?

[Marks]

Learning how to play a crpg. You gotta have like a degree astrophysics to fukking figure these complex rpgs out. Goddamn 1000 different options, gotta do homework to figure out how to use the options, gotta die left and right before figuring shyt out

This is why I play as a knight/paladin. Only need to learn hand to hand combat. fukking mages and their magic. I already finished school, I’m not gonna get a degree in D&D to play your game

Those early ones during the early 00s were the worst with this. Most of them used old ass DnD 2.0 ruleset which was infamous for making you want to kill yourself with all the shyt you had to take into account. You had to things like min/max weapon loadouts because slashing weapons are usless against skeletons, but blunt weapons are trash against zombies. Game just full of shyt like that. These games used to ship with 200 page manuals and 70% of it was just detailed spell and ability list.

The WHOLE rest of the game I can take out entire droves of enemies in any scenario... but for some reason I gotta tiptoe around this warehouse and not make a sound

I like stealth missions it teaches you patience especially in a game like Hitman you gotta be perfect to get that high score can't be bull in a China shop all the time...

Hitman is a stealth game...

No beef with stealth missions there


But you’re telling me in GTA I gotta sneak around some abandoned warehouse when 10 minutes before I was blowing up cops with a rocket launcher?

Relearning the controls after taking a break from a game



This only applies to brehs who don't play the same games 24/7 tho

at this point?

remembering to manually save despite most games having an autosave feature.

lights go out or some dumb shyt like that, you lose all your progress since the last save checkpoint.

Since most games now are "open world/sandbox" games, you prolly havent done a mission so the game can autosave in days, despite running around getting loot and exploring. You just put your shyt on standby cause in your mind it's turning it off.


So yeah. Save manually. I mean you reading this. Save your shyt manually.

 

[Mr. Negative]

remembering which of the top buttons is L2/L1 or R2/R1 when it's clutch time

banging out combos or whatever is easy, cause it's muscle memory.

A game straight up telling me to press L2, I'm pressing L1 and my brain is like

aiming.
for me it's first person shooters
i suck at aiming, plus it doesn't help that my target is moving all around
plus it doesn't really help that i fukking hate first person shooters in general.
i have no idea how i have 3 or 4 CODs in my gaming library.
timesplitters 2 the last fps that i somewhat enjoyed.

This is me. I truly suck at 1st person shooters.

I really wish I was good. I tend to stay away from them because I get easily washed partially because of the 1st person view. I just cant get used to it

The only thing gaming wise I really suck at still is driving.

They work for stealth games.

But shyt like wind waker where u gotta sneak throughout that ship without your sword and without being spotted or you'll have to start all over.

Complete trash and out of place in a zelda game.

Demonic bosses with a huge lifebar, small attack window and spamming 1 hit kill attacks

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Stealth missions in non stealth games are the worst. Why is there a stealth mission in the middle of Final Fantasy 15? It took me months to go back to that game after I came across it.

I bought the Season Pass and Royal Pack this weekend after not playing the game for over a year.

That Omega Weapon boss battle was
