Title: Video game hell: Parts in video games (or entire video games) u didn't like
Post by: Ayyyyy on November 12, 2019 03:03 AM
Trying to figure out what to do in Adams Family Values really sucked so I traded it for a copy of NBA JAM; I even bought a multitap and 4 controllers to get away from that "Christmas gift" from an Aunt. (That aunt turned out to be really crazy and really big into holistic new age medical shit but anyway).

Plz post.

Necroposting, but what the hell.

The Singleplayer campaign of Halo 2, specially on the Legendary difficulty. storywise its great, gameplay its not. I can't stand the poor weapon balance (the shotgun downgrade is a travesty), the irregular behavior of the Covenant and their endurance and the weapons gave, specially in the later parts with the Brutes and those fucking Jackal Snipers.

Combat Evolved was and still it is better.

I remember trying to scum save in diablo 1 for the playstation
And utterly failing cuz I was playing the game so terribly wrong.
Final fantasy games are bad by design; earning stronger numbers doesn't make you a better player.
You can't get stronger numbers in D1 or D2; you just kinda play -- you cant grind or regrind the first 2 floors and magically get super strong; that implied design is very dumb and I regret 13 yo me thinking that hahahaha.

But yea I remember trying to fight King Leoric and dying a few thousand times, then giving up because my bow wouldnt repair properly. I was also obsessed with killing the butcher with "pushback" weapons -- this turned out to be dumb. The best part of Diablo 1 was being able to spam pots, and they took that out cuz it was too strong.
Sometimes you roll a game thts impossible to beat without some thinking; Like this one

00:52:00 - Acid spitting dogs out the ass.

If I didn't wipe my saves when I got hacked, I wouldve destroyed them by using path finding against them in one of the rooms.

I also hate games or rpgs that warrant chronic saving, but I'm willing to let it go for diablo 1

Watching petri play metal gear and die a few times at each boss (https://thebackalleys.com/forum/index.php/topic,14174.0.html) is a really good example. Its not his fault tho.

I havent gone on to play MGSV because I cant do that all over again with a 5th game, im tired, im old. lol

Y'know that one ice/snow level in Super Mario 64 where you have to jump on a wall, then jump on another wall and jump to another one again to get to the top of a platform? That one, partially because the controls of Super Mario 64 are a tad bit annoying to deal with and I was a very dumb little girl back then. I couldn't figure out how to time the jumps right. I really disliked that specific section, but throwing the baby penguin off the cliff was fun at least!

I hated  the scaling difficult IN ALL FLASH GAMES EVER MADE, because they all pulled from the same book of design and were very very bad and very obvious. Try not to name them moving forward lol.  ;)

Every Marathon fan has PTSD, and the way of triggering is saying this sentence:

COLONY SHIP FOR SALE,CHEAP!

THE worst level in the game, to the point that Bungie acknowledged that by calling it "a grievous sin" in Marathon 2.
